Total Recall (original). Saw this again on TV recently, forgot just how good it is. I remember it as a standardly entertaining Arnie sci-fi action thing, but I'd forgotten about all the plot twists (pretty good for an action blockbuster) and the one-liners and humour and stuff. Just a great film all round.Now then....I know it's cool to hate on remakes, but........I think this looks pretty good. Sure it's derivative of everything, ever, including the original, but I actually think the fights / stunts / action look good enough on their own to warrant a cinema view.
Watched The Hunter at the cinema last night. Quite gripping and unusual in the way that only Aussie films can be.
Attempted to sleep through the new Batman this afternoon.
Midnight in Paris, weird, not very good. I was promised a RomCom as a birthday treat and this was not what I was expecting. Cleanskin - I suspect this is better than I thought it was but I wasn't that keen.Get the Gringo, which has apparently changed name now. It was ok but a bit weird and I wasn't keen.I'd be quite interested to hear what others thought if you've seen any of them as I'm not sure whether my opinion was skewed by my condition at the time of watching. They get decent ratings online but I really wasn't impressed with any of them.

Judge Dred - Seriously? Does nobody come up with original ideas anymore?
Seriously? Maybe it will be a bit truer to the original than the pile of shite Stallone made.
