Watched The Flowers of War last night. Apparently most expensive Chinese film ever made though wouldn't have noticed it myself - must have been Christian Bale's salary. Set during the Japanese occupation of Nanking in the 30's tells of an act of self-sacrifice which is "based on a true story". Enjoyed it well enough.

Best start to a movie I've seen in a long time.

alright lads, i'm sort of scared to download stuff as it messed up my last computer.

Can anyone tell me a safe program to use as well as safe download. I'm not technically minded either!!!!!

Thanks in advance lads.

Thought flight was alright, nothing special apart from Denzel being excellent.

Anyone seen Beasts of the Southern Wild yet? Meant to be outstanding.

Denzel is on The Graham Norton Show.

You have a while thing for him.

Watched The Raid (Redemption) last night. Some cracking fight scenes, brutal at times. Very worth a watch for any martial arts/action fans.

I cant get a decent copy of this, only crappy dubbed versions which I refuse to watch. Dont suppose you have a link for a decent subtitled version?

I watched 7 Psychopaths at the weekend...while not as good as I was expecting, I did enjoy it.
Christopher Walken is class and Farrell puts in a decent shift too but I think Sam Rockwell stole the show.

Watched Life of Pi at the Cinema over the weekend. Only in 2D and really wish I tried to catch it in 3D. Some of the scenes were spectacular. Had two kids with me and got mixed response from them, I think the younger got a couple of frights with the tiger scenes.

Also watched Ted over the weekend. Thought it was okish, few cheap laughs without hitting any real explosive hilarity, exactly what i was expecting.

Had the misfortune of (having to) watching two 'girlie' films at the weekend. Both complete tripe, but women seem to enjoy.

1) Because I Said So, with Diane Keaton. Awful tripe. Included a scene where a daughter tried to explain to her mother what an orgasm felt like.
2) Its Complicated, with Meryl Streep. Complete tripe.

From a television perspective, worst weekend ever.

You must have done something seriously wrong to be made sit through both of those films  ;)

Watched Trainspotting, decent enough but there wasn't much of a story there.
