The Lost Son.1999. Starring Daniel Auteuil.and Nastassja Kinski. Dark and serious thriller set mainly in the West End of London. 7/10

Whirlpool. 1949. Starring Gene Tierney and Jose Ferrer. Psychological film noir. 6/10
 
The Gorgon [1964]. Director: Terence Fisher

6/10

Nutty Hammer horror enlivened by the presence of Christopher Lee & Peter Cushing. Patrick Troughton appears as a sinister police inspector. Within 2 years both Cushing & Troughton would be cast as Doctor Who.
 
Centurion

Michael Fassbender & his small band of Roman's set out to rescue Dominic West from the clutches of the Picts. Poorly acted, and seemed to be aimed at young teenage boys, considering the toughest warriors seemed to be scantily clad super model types. The use of cgi blood made the battles resemble a video game and the script was cringe-worthy. Like a small budget 300.

4/10
 
The Mist. It was a good movie until the ending. Killing everyone you love to safe them and then finding out that if you had waited 5 minutes you would all have been saved. So he didn't have to do that, now he has lost everyone. That's not how i want movie to end.

without ending: 7/10 With ending: 1/10
 
The Social Network

Loved it! The acting to the story and the script - all very good. It was fast paced and a few times I didn't quiet understand the technical language but that did not stop me from enjoying the movie.

8.5/10
 
I thought this was a classic 60s horror !!..yes dated and naff story but an excellent chiller , and beats some of the latest horrors hanRAB down !
 
If you can, give it a second watch some time after. It's the sort of film that might be appreciated more the second time watched, in that it might be considered by some as a bit slow (but that's more of a character/story build-up to the finale). Still, it might hit you the first time and you might appreciate it, but thought I'd say that if you're underwhelmed by it.
 
Iron Man 2

Okay-ish blockbuster that never quite delivers enough of anything to truly satisfy. And it's all a little too pleased with itself. 6/10

Die Hard 4.0

Hugely entertaining nonsense, during which I notice how Brucie's rudimentary gun makes a very masculine "phwump - phwump," sound, whereas the hi-tech, high-jumping villians has a more delicate, almost feminine "phit - phit." Such is the attention to detail in these things now. 8/10
