Wedding Crashers at 9 on Film4, love that film.

I saw Brooklyns finest, today. A raw gritty gangster,cop movie. I thought it was very good, I would compare it to The Departed, and Gomorrah.

8 out of 10.?

Up in the Air- possibly thee worst film I've watched recently, was it not nominated for several Oscars as well. Not sure but i thought it was poor.


The Iceman

watched The Road last night. Captured the book perfectly. Very dark.
The innocence of the boy was inspiring - had a tear in my eye at the end.....

Batman Begins and Rambo First Blood on ITV2 and ITV4 tonight respectively.

Watched The Book Of Eli, very entertaining.  Your doll in it (out of the 70's show) was looking fine.

Went to see that new Russell Brand film last night. Didn't think much of it to be honest, Forgetting Sarah Marshall was much funnier.

Saw it last night.  Went to the cinema with a few lads and went to see it having never heard of it.  Thought it was great though.  Best film I have seen in a long time.

Saw The Hurt Locker the other night as well, very good as well.

Yup, great show....very grim, very dark, very close to the book.
The boy was a great wee actor.

Watched 'The Man who sued God".

Man gives up law, buys a fishing boat to make his living. Boat destroyed by lightening. Insurance company cites 'act of God' clause and won't pay for a new boat. So man decided to sue God and cites all the main denominations' leaders in Australia as defendants.

Best idea for a plot I'd seen in a while. But turned out it was a comedy starring Billy Connelly. It seems to have been made by bright but naive students. There were lots of cliched scenes and some sad efforts to get a laugh. However I did enjoy parts of it. Not sure what the Big Yin was thinking though.
