64 31% Unleashed (2005) - Rated 17 Nov 2010
"Surprisingly beautiful soundtrack considering the nature of the film. Completely misleading advertising campaign though, when I put the film in I was expecting to watch a balls-to-the-wall Statham-esque action flick. What I instead received was a shit load of character development with only a few punches thrown. It was a pleasant surprise but wasn't mind blowing enough to make this film great. Just decent."
36 20% Skyline (2010) - Rated 17 Nov 2010
"It's War of the Worlds except everyone is Dakota Fanning."
72 55% Knocked Up (2007) - Rated 17 Nov 2010
"Apatow has a real gift when it comes to portraying relationships (and life in general) as completely shitty but totally worth the effort. He really needs to punch his daughters in the face though."
65 33% Despicable Me (2010) - Rated 17 Nov 2010
"A decent enough animated comedy. Not Meatballs quality but still enjoyable. The supporting cast really carried it though which probably says something bad about the writing."
71 51% Say Anything... (1989) - Rated 09 Oct 2010
"Is Say Anything the Scott Pilgrim of twenty years ago? I actually think it might be."
66 37% Galaxy Quest (1999) - Rated 09 Oct 2010
"I didn't have particularly high hopes when I saw the DVD cover but this film turned out pretty alright. I mean, I laughed at least once and smiled a handful of times so it was an enjoyable experience. Good enough to watch, basically."
76 63% Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) - Rated 29 Sep 2010
"Oh James Cameron, why won't you return and give this film the sequel it deserves? (actually I thought Salvation was alright)"
84 83% District 9 (2009) - Rated 29 Sep 2010
"A fantastic original screenplay, the best of 2009. It starts as a kind of fake documentary which really adds to the gritty tone of the film but also knows exactly when to make the jump to conventional narrative telling before the whole fly on the wall stuff gets old."
86 90% Push (2009) - Rated 28 Sep 2010
"This film is an awesome fusion of gritty cinematography and blockbuster narratives. Unfortunately, it's probably because it was marketed as a blockbuster that it was received so badly. However, the grainy aesthetics and nicely portrayed and developed characters, twinned with the rich mix of supernatural abilities establish this film as both a favourite and an inspiration."
41 25% The Departed (2006) - Rated 28 Sep 2010
"This is possibly the worst edited blockbuster I've ever seen and I say that with total conviction. Then I find out it got an Oscar for just that? That's seriously hilarious. I mean, what, all you gotta do is cut loudly mixed music in and out whenever you feel like it and you're a fucking artistic genius? Fuck you."
