Mockingjay Pt 1 - Good. I enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to the final part. I know its a big book franchise like Harry Potter and Twilight and it's not cool to like it but I've really enjoyed thw Hunger Games series!!

Interstellar - a nearly movie. Some nice moments and there was a great film somewhere trying to get out but by the end it was just a bit of a mess. It was like every space movie rolled into one.
for me it was epic, absolutely epic and life changing like the matrix in how it addresses our reality and the interdimensional reality, your perception of the movie really lies in the levee of conscious awareness

It was shit.

Jake Gyllenhall must be a shoe in for an Oscar, that is some creepy bastid performance he gives in Nightcrawler, great show.

Gyllenhall is very good, but the overall movie is just OK. As far as the Oscars go, I would argue that his performances in "Jarhead" "Brokeback Mountain" & "End of watch" are all superior to Nightcrawler and if they weren't worthy of an Oscar, I don't see how this performance is.

Only watched the Harry Potters on Blu Ray last Christmas, really enjoyed them.  The Hunger Games has been very good so far too.

Wouldn't be a big James Bond fan but lay up this afternoon and watched Casino Royale (Daniel Craig one). Very enjoyable...must check out the ones since.

Brilliant show, clever but good old still easy watching, bar the torture scene. Two since IMO have been f**king shite, especially Skyfall, it's shocking bad.

I thought Skyfall was the best ever Bond film.

The Iceman

Stonehearst Asylum: 7.5/10 Decent show, very watchable, solid cast, nice twists and turns.
The Equalizer: 7/10 Denzel doing what Denzel does. Not a trench coat in sight if any of you were hoping for it though.
Gone girl: At the time a 4 - maybe now an 8/10. One of the biggest mind melters I've watched in a while. Fatal attraction of this era. Well worth watching!

I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong and morally straight

Watched some turkeys recently, namely Lucy, a Most Wanted Man and Before I Go to Sleep.

Sin City 2 was better than I expected it to be, and a film with Joel Edgerton I watched was pretty decent (Wish You Were Here).  Joe was very good.

I thought A Most Wanted Man was great. Classic Le Carre pacing to it and Hoffman was fantastic.
