I know I said the movie is twilightish when Nicci was hyping it but must admit I kind of enjoyed it. My negativity is based on the very terrible book 2 and even worse book 3. The movie rescued it a bit, Katniss still annoying as hell and wish the movie makers would kill her off just for the fun of it.

On that note - 300 Rise of an Empire 6.5/10. As someone said good escapism and titties :love:
 
The Wolf of Wall Street - 7/10

Vulgar and over the top, but not the greatest movie ever. Leo took his role well.
 
Busy watching Pacific Rim.... So far I am enjoying it as it does not try to be anything but Giant Robots vs Giant Aliens :D
 
Wolf of Wall Street. 8/10. DiCaprio gives a tour de force in the performance if his career but its the blonde who plays his wife who really impresses.

She is a stunner.

More of a black comedy rather than a serious take on Belfort's life.

Finished it and I think I will give it 7/10 for what it is. A fun mighty morphin power ranger movie on a very large and impressive scale.
do not expect a story line. Just switch off your brain and enjoy on a large screen and surround sound.
 
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

7/10

Really enjoyed it. Could see myself doing all the adventures he had to endure... Except for the final trip... I don't like the cold.
 
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007)

10/10

If you like grim westerns then this movie is one of the best you'll see. Brad Pitt and Casey Affleck kick ass in the acting department. A real story about real people. If you're looking for a John Wayne type western then this isn't it.

Cassey Affleck's performance in this movie is beyond good and downright eerie.

Couldn't agree more. The movie was fine... Right to the moment Hollywood decided they knew better than Dumas, meh.

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. Loved it... 8/10.
Was annoyed when I heard Jackson was making a trilogy but the first one was good and the second even better. The pace was excellent for a two and a half hour movie based in a third of a 200 page book and the deviations from the book haven't annoyed me like I thought they would. The casting is spot on... Cumberbatch's Smaug is perfect.

Really good. Long, slow yet not boring.
