I was at Alpha Papa last night, I'm a huge AP fan and I thought it was a let down.  He's just too old, I was hoping for a lot more.

Gonna take the childer to either Despicable Me 2 or Monsters University? Anyone seen either or both and able to offer an opinion?

Took nieces to Despicable Me 2 at weekend. They loved it. I found it enjoyable, not as good as the first. No match for a Pixar film.

I have seen both, both good.

Saw Oblivion at the weekend, pure dirt.  Also saw What Doesn't Kill You which was pretty good.

Seen Olympus has fallen, dodgy enough and very porous plot at times.  The craic about deactivating the nukes, and the yanks overlooking the "oh no he is going to deactivate them on the ground and turn the states into a nuclear wasteland" was preposterous.  It felt a wee bit makey uppy at times.

After watching the series recently I watched the film Hannibal.  Julianne Moore is terrible in it, I suppose hard act to follow Jodie Foster, but still a good film. Not a patch on the book, I think I might even give it another read.

Also Sky + a film a while a go but the woman never let me watch it, so I got a chance the other night to give it a go.  Remember my da always saying it was a great show.  Serpico.  Thought it was really good and Pacino was brilliant in it

Thought Hannibal was pretty poor when I watched it years ago but loved Red Dragon when it came out the following year and have watched it a lot since.  Maybe will give Hannibal another shot after watching the tv show too.  Actually bought Serpico 3 or 4 years ago on DVD as it was only £3 in Tescos but have never got around to watching it.

Went to see Monsters University - very good but not as good as the original.

Saw Red 2 at the start of the week. Excellent film and even better than the first. John Malovich was brilliant in it, as pr usual.

Watched Killing them Softly with Brad Pitt last night, woeful.

It's attempt to be edgy and cool yet with a hard edge completely failed.

Watched it the other night as well, poor stuff, i expected it to be quite good, but as you say, completely failed.
It tried to play the story along with this political backdrop which seemed to be of no relevance at all other that to make you think it was trying to say something worthwhile, which i dont think it was
