Planet Hulk (2010)
I liked it --- Though it took a while to get him up to full power :D
I'd never come across the Horsey Thor = Beta Ray Bill
Apparently he was the Silver Surfer in the Mag ---
Why the Change ?
7/10

i don't think they had the rights since he was in the FF movie


Iron Man 2 - had the right combo of action and comedy....good backstory....just had too much Fury in in for me....loved the comic references for us fans though (Hulk sighting, Project Pegasus boxes)...Overall , 7.5/10

Kick-Ass (2010)

This flick kicked ass. Excellent action film, good acting (except from Nicholas Cage) and excellent soundtrack. I was putting off seeing this because Cage was in it (I can't stand his acting) and he was true to form in a hammy "Adam West" impersonation, but even Cage's overacting didn't spoil the film (well he may have prevented it getting a 9).

8/10

Interesting that you thought so Red. I thought it was a cute film to see for free but I wouldnt see it again. Different stokes and all....I think I might have it top out at 6.5/10.

Dr Strangelove
Fantastic; Peter Sellers is amazing. Now whenever I see mushroom clouds I hear Vera Lynn singing and vice versa.

Took a trip down memory lane and watched Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke.
 (1978) Always good for a laugh.

I watched this last night with my 14 year old daughter and while I thought it was pretty good, she loved it. Visually it looks excellent, so it was probably right it won visual effect oscars, but I'm not sure why it was touted as a possible best picture oscar. The acting was good, but the plot premise was formulaic. I've heard it's the same plot as Pocahontas, but never having seen Pocahontas I can't really comment on that, but it kept reminding me of the Tarzan flicks - Jane comes from a supposed more civilised society, visits the jungle, mingles with the locals, embraces the local lifestyle, falls in love with a "primitive", helps the locals against her own people and stays behind.

Good film to look at but a more original plot would have made it much better. The kids will love it though if my daughter's anything to go by.

44 Inch Chest (2009)

Excellent acting, good script, a very enjoyable film. John Hurt is hilarious in it.
