    Re: Your most recently watched movie/film?

    I watched 2 this weekend:

    Snow White and the Huntsman: 5.5/10 Not bad, but Chris Hemsworth's Scottish accent is terrible (why does the character have to be Scottish if the actor can't do the accent?) and Kristen Stewart doesn't seem to have anything but simpering in her range. Charlize Theron was good as the wicked stepmother, as were the 7 dwarves...

    12 Years a Slave: 7.5/10 Harrowing story, well told, but I've read the book, and I think they missed important bits out. The moral of the story is: watch the film, then read the book.

    Watched Horrible Bosses at the weekend. It was OK, but I couldn't really warm to the beardy one and Jason Bateman.

    Nice 'out of comfort zone' turn from Jennifer Aniston though...

    Re: Your most recently watched movie/film?

    Watched The Raid 2 the other night. The original was one of my favourite films, so was looking forward to the sequel as it has good reviews.

    I enjoyed it but didn't think it was a patch on the original. For starters, although it was a decent story and had loads of cool fight sequences, it wasn't really about a raid at all.

    Watched The Drop last week. It's James Gandolfini's last film. Pretty good, a fitting tribute to him. Tom Hardy was pretty good too.

    The Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out of His Window and Disappeared. Helluva long title but a great film. Swedish, subtitled. Touching, funny, weird, with lots of lovely attention to detail. Also amazing because it seems to pack a lot into a short time, and yet there is still room in the film for the camera lingering on people's expressions and so on. I've made it sound awful but it was really good!

    That, and also I'm a sucker for time travelling plots.
    I've also seen this one very recently and honestly it's probably the best movie I've seen in quite a while.

    Re: Your most recently watched movie/film?

    Saw Under the Skin last week - really liked it on several levels although not at all like the book of the same name which inspired it.

    Scarlet Johansson is a great femme fatale with real Glasgow suffused with grimy coldness and plenty of sex focussed young men to prey upon. Asks questions on many levels - beauty is skin deep, we are all hidden beneath our artificial skins but judge each other on the state of our skins and can still be compromised and vulnerable in our skins.

    I watched Starred Up at the weekend. It's about a bloke that gets transferred from Young Offenders to proper prison. Pretty brutal. Good though...

    Watched Fury at the weekend, quite a good film if a little predictable at the end.

    Re: Your most recently watched movie/film?

    2 films this weekend:

    Mr Peabody and Sherman: 7.5/10 Fairly entertaining cartoon romp through time. I think it may be the film of a series that they get in the US but not here.

    Belle: 7/10 True story of a mixed-race girl in the 17/1800s whose aristocratic father acknowledges her, but society doesn't. Quite a powerful film, but hard going... Quite a stellar cast too

    SexTape - me and the missus gave up after about 40 mins. There's only so long you can wait for the funny in a comedy and Cameron Diaz talking dirty with most of her clothes off is not exactly "couple" fun. A rubbish film !

    Interstellar. Excellent, absolutely excellent. 9.5/10.

    There were a couple of things that looked a bit messy but very minor things.

    Wait, what?

    You mean women don't go for that?
