Saw Oblivion the other day. Classic Tom Cruise, as in there is a shitload of money involved in it so it looks great, but found it quite seriously lacking. Possibly too predictable? Definitely felt like it had unrealised potential.
It's been a long time since the opening scene of a sci-fi made me think oooh, pretty rather than yawn, another big space-ship.
'How to train your dragon' (which is ace and by the same team)

Agree with Magpie and Jasper. I watched silver lining playbook when trying to sleep on a long a flight a moth or so a go. Ended up watching the whole film and really enjoyed it.
Watched a great film on iPlayer last night. Skeletons, about two exorcist type blokes who go around relieving troubled people from the skeletons in their closet. One has been doing too much of the 'glowing' leading to difficulties. They land up a house looking for a missing husband and things take a troubling turn. A British independent flick that picked up some awards. Really worthwhile and on iPlayer at the moment.
Got round to watching The Mist the other night, few years old now. Horror with things appearing in the mist.
