I really enjoyed the head hunters, a Norwegian movie that starts out about stealing paintings and then well you have to go and see it.

I watched Moneyball last night. Really enjoyed it. A different look at behind the scenes sport.

If its anything like the book, it would make you look twice at Recruitment Agencies.

Just watched Stephen Kings bag of bones in two parts on Netflix, and it scared the bejasus out of me at times.

Or make recruiting agents think twice about messing people around?

I can't watch scary movies at all anymore. I don't mind a good thriller like Inception or Shutter Island or something like that but I can't do pure horror anymore....

I just don't enjoy the feeling of being scared like that anymore....I don't know when or why it changed but its no longer enjoyable

I was at The Avengers tonight as well Sligonian. What a fantastic film. Great action, comedy, story, SFX. Had the works. This really has set the bar for future super hero films and it's pretty high.

Watched Mission Impossible 4 last night. I feel robbed of two hours of my life.
Dreadful film.

Saw two decent films recently...well worth a look.

Eden Lake with Michael Fassbender

Death Sentence with Kevin Bacon.

Armaghgeddon

Going to heap more praise on Avengers here....Absolutely Awesome movie, don't think we are going to see a better movie. Personally I think it beats Transformers trilogy hands down. With the amount of superheroes in it they definitely divided the time perfectly. Unfortunately it looks like there is going to be a 2nd one which could possibly wreck it.

Wouldn't take much to beat the Michael Bay Transformers films they were absolutely woeful. Will have to catch Avengers in the cinema sometime soon.

Last three films i seen was on a recent flight to Atlanta. My week with Marilyn, highly rated but i & others around me didn't like it. The Big Year, guys obsessed with bird sightings..like who thought that would make a good film? Mission Impossible 4 apart from the scene on the Burj Dubai it was a poor watch.

Watched American Reunion last night. Was a fair enough effort with a couple of laughs in it. The lads behind us were pissing themselves at every line though so I might have been missing something. Stiffler had his moments in it and suppose the best thing about it was that everyone made an appearance at some stage. That should wrap up that series, you would think anyway.
