MiB - 7/10.better than 2.good story.
Three Stooges - 6.5/10.slapstick fun for the whole family.
Snow White and the Huntsman - 6/10.Looks great but average story and Charlize over the top acting spoils it.
The Hunger Games - 7/10.thought provoking satire.

I never want to see the phrase 'for the whole family' used in a review ever again, ever ever. The English language is not composed of pret a porter phrases.

Snow white and the huntsman - 8/10... some amazing visuals, pretty standard story.

Cabin in the woods - 7.5/10... Interesting take on the standard horror movie.

The Killing, with Sara Lund. This is the Danish version, made in 2007, much more exciting and compelling than the US version with Mireille Enos. Set in the Copenhagen underworld, a tale of politics and murder. 4 seasons with 4 episodes each. Available from Amazon.uk.

Prometheus 7/10 some of scenes/story seemed flawed. Cant go into detail without spoiling.

The Bourne Legacy - 3/10. Boring as hell. NO action, and honestly the worst of the lot.

Men In Black three was good.
Lockout might have been good but rather low budget fake acting.
The Cabin In The Woods has a very bad script and acting and was only made for the shock/horror/gore effects.
The Dictator was stupid.
The Raven was very good.

I will watch The Hunger Games maybe latter but seeing Stanley Tucci in the opening scenes makes me think of a "Made for TV" type movie and not a blockbuster type one.

Snow white and the huntsman - 7/10...A bit better than ok, how come the Queen/Witch (Charlize) is HOTTER that Snow White? Isn't it the other way around in the fairy tale? Or was the "mirror" lying?

The latest We-Almost-Get-To-See-Mila-Naked Resident Evil: Retribution - 4/10

No real story, CGI is alright. Good fighting scenes though...well, the whole movie is a damn fighting scene. Got to see it at ol' no 11 though so that probably made it even better.

The Watch - 6/10. I'm not a big Ben Stiller fan or "comedy movie" fan for that matter, but this was pretty good. Very entertaining indeed :)

The Awakening 5/10.creepy but there's nothing you haven't seen before including the twist ending.
Lockout 7/10.shameless Escape from New York ripoff with bad acting but it doesn't take itself seriously,and that's why it works.
