About time - 7/10 - Really good message, but I found the movie boring.

I wouldn't say it was boring but the more I thought about it the more certain things bothered me; like the fact that every single theme had to be painstakingly spelled out in big letters in case you didn't catch it from the context. It was as though the writers had made a wire diagram of the plot and then had to make sure you knew exactly what the red lines were. So I'll also drop to 7/10.
 
The Wolf of Wall Street 5/10 ....... bleh
A.C.O.D 7/10 .... decent enough watch
 
Magic, Magic - 2/10 Movie lacked substance and lacked a solid ending. (Or any ending at all one might argue).
 
Out of the Furnace - 6/10
Dallas Buyer's Club - 7/10
Saving Mr Banks - 4/10
American Hustle - 5/10 (Too Long)
 
Wolf on Wall Street - 6/10

Loved the no holds barred rawness of it but movie didn't really leave a message lingering at the end of it.

Arbitrage - 8/10

Loved the non-conventional conclusion to the movie.
 
Elysium - 6.5/10

Really enjoyed this. Blomkamp is AWESOME! :D
 
Last Vegas - 6/10

A well know generic story. A couple of friends go to Las Vegas for a once in a lifetime trip. There is a woman and two of them are "fighting" over her. They all end up happy with new meaning in life.

What makes this one better than most are the actors ;)

Why 6.5?

6 is too low and 7 is too high :p

It is not a masterpiece but I was glued to the screen. So for me it is an just above average film that was hugely entertaining. Probably won't be as much fun to watch the second time around.

Took the family to Frozen at the Cinema. Really good actually: 8/10

Bit more singing than Tangled but was decent.

Edit: Saw a preview for How to Train your Dragon 2. I give the trailer 10/10. Movie better be that good.

Frozen is an Exceptional movie with deep valuable lessons to which I could personally apply. Like Tangled it was definitely a 10/10
 
Side Effects, a twisted drama about a psychiatrist and patient who is suffering depression. He then prescribes a drug that causes her to sleep walk which results in tragedy. There is of cause a sick twist towards the end. The movie is definitely the style that interests me and performances were great, just felt that Tatum Channing didn't really suit such a dark film, but overall I'd rate it 7/10

Awesome cast, movie really dragged though, although it's extremely engaging, the viewer shouldn't loose interest. Exceptional performance from Leo as usual. I give it a 8
