Im not a big fan of those type of films, but alot of people raved about Jar Head and this is much better.

Jarhead was absolute pants so i suppose your right its better but not a great bench mark!!!

I enjoyed The Way Back, but as mentioned it lacked a storyline really. Monsters was very good. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo was excellent, can't wait to see the other two. Hurt Locker was very good, whereas Jarhead was dung

Saw these this week.

Paranormal Activity 2 - Poor. A lot worse than the first one.

Green Zone - Shit, stupid, unoriginal.

Girl With The Dragon Tattoo - Shite book, alright movie.

Thor - Decent comic book stuff. Nice mix of FX, humour and general bullshittery to keep you entertained.

Monsters - Alright, bit silly in parts.

I need to start watching better movies.

The whole trilogy is very good

Swimming with Sharks starting on BBC 2 soon, I'll Sky Plus it. Quality film Spacey at his best

Hanna was very good in parts I thought. Interrupted by an ugly British teenage girl and her family but I suppose they had to take time out to develop the character of the young Hanna.

8 out of 10.

Dinny Breen · May 08, 2011, 01:18:07 AM

Hannah was heading for an 8 for me as well but the ending wasn't great so I leave it at 7. Cate Blanchett was mis-cast as well imho.

Can't be that good, if you're on the board during it.

The Next Three Days is pretty good.
