Watched American Graffiti last week, good show.  Watched Chinatown last week too, very good.  Serpico this week, only been laying in my room for 5 years.

Went to the cinema last night, with 'Captain Phillips' on the agenda, but I let the wife choose, so the bland, boring and predictable 'Philomena' was the film of choice.

I was wrong. A fantastically funny, emotional, and heart breaking film. Definitely one for the ladies to go and see, and to the men you don't have to go kicking and screaming. It's actually very good. 8/10.

Wasn't bad, but def more of a ladies one. About 5/10 from me.

Watched the Campaign recently. Terrible. We Are The Millers wasn't bad. The Heat has a few laughs.

Watched Gravity in 3D last night and have to say it is absolutely awesome viewing at times. plot and characters are stripped down and its only about 90mins but for sheer visual impact its worth watching in the cinema.

Was a bit put off going in by Danny Ocean George Clooney and Miss Congeniality Sandra Bullock as NASA astronauts but really not an issue at all, its the spectacle of the events on screen that is to the fore.

the fact that its not really sci fi as its based on current tech/operations etc adds to the realism and therefore tension of it. Overall, it must be the most detailed, if not best depiction ever made of what its like to be in space (as in 2001 Kubrickesque level groundbreaking), fascinating for that aspect alone.

Really glad i seen it and would happily go again.

Went to see this with the wee lad today. Absolutely stunning.

Was disappointed with prisoners, head so much about it hear and was kinda disappointed. Found it slow and ponderous at times.

Watched Kes today for the first time in ages  Exceptionally good film for those who haven't seen it yet .Had to laugh as the school principal in it was the mirror image of my old English teacher.
Brilliantly acted.

Saw Beyond the Candelabra during the week and was alot better than I was expecting. 7/10.
Michael Douglas was excellent in it.

Watched Gravity in 3D and couldn't see a thing. Completely blank screen and only for my pic n mix and partner beside me it was a complete waste of money.
