Dear White People. 8/10

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dear_White_People

and

Fury 8.5/10  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fury_%282014_film%29
An elegy with an amazing musical score, a war-is-hell film,
Whenever I saw a young woman in this movie, I thought of my mother and the stories she told me of the war when the Americans came through.

As I have mentioned I watched The Atticus Institute the other night. Unfortunately there really not too much too report. If it were on regular TV you'd probably make it too the end, just as long as Star Trek wasn't on the other side.

4.6/10
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

I see both of those things every day.

Have you never considered polka dot?  I think you could carry it.

Just the once. That day turned into a bit of a train wreck to be honest.

Did you forget to wear heels. They're a must with polka dot.

We watched Dinosaur Island a couple of nights ago and I have to say I am more than a little confused why this has a rating of 3.6?

Sure, the acting is what you'd expect from something like a Nickelodeon made film and you'd be hard pushed to recognise any of the cast, but the storyline worked well enough for what is was and, contrary to the comments in the public reviews, the CGI was way better than half the stuff on Syfy.

Most antipodean CGI is better than average as they pioneered techniques that are now industry standard. Compare that to some of the astonishingly awful stuff from remote parts of Europe, and there is no way this film can be marked down on its CGI. I think (based on some reviews) that people didn't really get why most of the dinos in this film had, or had the beginnings of feathers and assumed it was sloppy work.

I'm giving it a 6/10

Seventh son ....sucked so bad I fell asleep, on the plus side it was the best sleep I've ever had at a movie theatre. Right after seventh son went to see Jupiter ascending it was amazing compared to seventh son. Channing Tatum acting was top notch but it was probably because he didn't talk much.

Wedding Ringer was mostly funny even though Im not a fan of Kevin hart.

The interview was total crap. Fast forwarded through most it but it reconfirmed how annoying I find Seth rogan.

Good to see you around, mish.

I finally got around to watching "Riddick" last night and, as usual with these fims, I loved it.

Forget acting, storyline, seamless FX - just gimme the action!

Nightcrawler 8/10

A very good film with a strong performance by the three leads.
