Saw Skyline over the weekend and the best way to describe it is if you want to see a movie that requires absolutely no mental thought process but is special effects laden then this is the movie for you.

The script is as basic as you'll see, it makes absolutely no effort to explain the premise of the alien invasion, the acting is average and it goes for barely an hour and twenty minutes with an ending that is more than a little strange given the short production time.

It get's 1 1/2 buckets of popcorn (out of five) from me, and that's only because the special effects were quite good.

Animal Kingdom on DVD last night.

Bit disappointing really and not so sure what all the fuss was about.

Saw the latest Harry Potter movie Saturday afternoon and found it a bit drawn out and a tad confusing in stages for someone who hasn't read the books.

Saw the latest Harry Potter film tonight, it's ok. Enjoyed it, although I don't think it quite met the standards of the 6th film.

Yep.

I haven't read any of the books but have never had any trouble following the movies.

I saw that at the cinema. My daughter and I were the only 2 people in the whole place. It was mucgh better than I thought it would be although the dodgy accents were a bit annoying at times.

Hired "Men who stare at Goats" tonight on Blu Ray. Really enjoyed it. Recommend it if anyone hasn't seen it yet.

(Great on Blu Ray too - sound & picture quality are remarkably enhanced).

Not the best film I've ever seen but a good one to hire.

If you've interested in blu ray & TV type things try Pioneer Clearance Centre Online (Pioneer make high quality stuff & often too expensive for me however if your're patient you can get great deals). I got a $1700 Blu ray (superseded model) for approx $300-350 early last year.

I was roped into seeing Across the Universe yesterday. My girlfriend, who usually has impeccable taste, assured me that it was brilliant. A film structured around Beatles songs, how can you go wrong?

Chlamydia would have been more enjoyable.
