2 popcorns out of ten

I really wanted to like this film

There are some ace little scenes but it just doesn't translate into a story where I cared about any of the characters. You don't get that much more depth than what you see in the trailer from them. They just slot into roles and there's nothing else.

It's a bit like a shit version of Shooters, that True Crime fanz fanvorite, with a documentary feel to a lot of it.

I actually fell asleep in the pictures too and snored before my mate woke me up.

Supposed to be a really good book but they always said it was going to be hard to translate so many characters into a screenplay. Too hard.

That Spanish Woody Allen on 7.5
Bolt 3.5 as I fell asleep at the beginning, the middle and missed the end for a pee break. My 6 yr old thought it was 8 popcorns.

Bolt 6.5/10 Who plays the Hamster? Best thing in it.
Benjamin Button 4/10 (clockmaking and posh Tilda bits are acers, the rest can be left alone)
7 Pounds 4.5/10
Burn After Reading 8/10 Laughed my head off
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (hard to grade)

None measured up to Dexter’s headbutt, 10 Glaswegian kisses out of 10.

Burn After Reading 8/10 - loved Brad Pitt's character, very funny film.

Taken 7/10 - fast paced action, 'er indoors said it was a bit two dimensional but it's meant to be, I enjoyed it.
Nostalgia - it's the only way forward.
