I thought Hurt Locker was much better than the Wrestler or No Country for Old Men. Hurt Locker did not make it a poor year for movies.

Thought Hurt Locker was a fine movie. You can never really place that much stall by who/ what wins best picture...

e.g. The year that Titanic won it was up against LA Confidential. Theres no doubt which of those is the superior film.

[Archie Mitchell]

Boy A is a good watch. About a young lad who done time for murder when he was a child and was released early with a new identity.

Hurt Locker is the best i have seen in the past year. I thought it was excellent and the ending was just fine. Might not have been explosive or the expected Hollywood ending but was deliberately mundane in showing the quiet family life versus the madness of their work in Iraq.

I thought the opposite Tony. Especially after the start when it faded to the words "War is a drug" from the original quote... it kind of spelled out what the film was like (main character theme) and how it was going to end.
It was one of those "Look at us, we are American and we fight wars, because thats what we do" kind of ending. It was a little bit pretentious for me. But it was a good film besides

Had the misfortune of sitting through an hour of From Paris With Love tonight. I know it's meant to be way over the top but the plot and acting was so dire I found myself staring at a plant.

Absolutely! No way Titanic shoulda won over either.

I saw legion tonight which got some terrible reviews on imdb. I am glad I went to see it despite those reviews which were not very accurate, whatever about peoples opinions on whether they enjoyed a movie or not, some of the reviews just didn't describe it accurately.

5.2 oout of 10 on IMDB I would give it 7.5 out of 10. Like I said it is probably not everybodys cup of tea, but it is an action horror movie with a twisted religious theme. It has its flaws and is far fetched but i assume people didn't like it being a bit anti religious.

Uma Thurman's latest film Motherhood has taken just £88 at the UK box office.

The Katherine Dieckmann-directed comedy, which sees Thurman portray a mother-of-two preparing for her daughter's 6th birthday, screened for three days over the past weekend at London's Apollo Piccadilly Circus ahead of its DVD release today.

Its total takings for Sunday were £9, meaning only one person paid to see the movie on that day.

Motherhood was also a box office flop in the US. It grossed $50,000 (£33,448) from 48 venues last October and totalled $98,900 (£66,160) when it wrapped up its theatrical run in November.

I didnt like the wrestler but no country for old men is a masterpiece.
