Enjoyed Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning.
Had watched them all in the run up to it and
MI4 and 5 were the only forgettable ones.
MI3 was better than I remembered and MI6 Fallout
was pretty good.

Enjoyed the new Indiana Jones as well.

New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Awful.

MI3 was fantastic. Philip Seymour Hoffman was terrifying in it. Best villain of the entire series by a country mile

Watched an oldie (ish) last night with my teenage daughter to see what she'd think of it.
Little Miss Sunshine - it's still as good as I remembered and my daughter loved it.

Really pokes a finger of ridicule at the beauty pageant business in the US towards the end which was funny.

Watched Kandahar on Prime last night. Standard Gerard Butler fare - not terrible and not great.

There was a free movie in the park event near us at the weekend. They showed Back to the Future. I haven't seen it in forever and I had forgot most of it, so it was like seeing it for the first time. Holds up very well today. Fantastic film, well worth a revisit. Myself and herself have agreed we need to watch the trilogy again. I remember seeing part 2, but not part 3. Looks forward to getting caught up.

Watched 'The Weekend AWay' on Netflix. Really enjoyed. Some good twists.
