Watched a load of movies over the past couple of weeks:
The Expendables - Good cast, good action sequences but not a great storyline. 7.5/10
G.I. Joe - Pretty good, a little bit cheesy in places though. 7/10
Quantum Of Solace - Poor if I'm honest, technical stuff was good but the storyline was awful. 3/10
Bourne Ultimatum - Great film just like it's prequels. Clever storyline, good dialog. Matt Damon is great in this. 9.5/10
Transporter 3 - Good special effects but the fight scenes are a bit cheesy and the dialog was largely shite. The woman in it was a terrible actress. 5/10
88 Minutes - Fairly good thriller. Al Pacino is good as the lead. You can tell it wasn't a big budget film though. 6.5/10
The Taking Of Pelham 123 - Fantastic film. Denzel Washington and John Travolta have a great chemistry between them. Exciting storyline and superb acting. 9.5/10
Inglorious Basterds - I really liked this, the storyline was fresh and the execution of it was spot on. Brad Pitt was awesome as the leader of the Basterds. Would highly recommend. 10/10
Dead Man Running - Not bad, Tamer Hassan and Danny Dyer work well together, 50 Cent was a bit lame though. Interesting storyline with a twist at the end. 7/10
The Orphanage - Spanish horror film. Gripping storyline and pretty scary in places while using minimal gore (that most horror films seem to use these days). 7.5/10
Hurt Locker - Great film. Storyline was pretty good but it was the acting that stood out in this, great performances from the 3 leads. Would highly recommend. 9.5/10
4321 - Pretty shit if I'm honest. Would have expected it to be pretty good seeing as it's a Noel Clarke film (I usually like his stuff) But the storyline was pretty weak and too slow in places. 4/10
Harry Brown - Brilliant film. My favourite out of the lot; fantastic performances from Michael Caine and Ben Drew in particular. Great storyline and well written. If you haven't already seen it, you should. 10/10
Frost/Nixon - Great acting from Michael Sheen and particularly Frank Langella who does a great Nixon. Good dialog. Maybe a little slow in places though. 7.5/10
28 Days Later - Not bad, storyline is ok and the acting was pretty good. Could have been better though 6.5/10
img so bad that I had to leave
