Sicko sounds interesting, Michael Moore's buffoonery aside.

I've been raiding the public library here, managed to get Assassinations that Changed the World vol 1 & 2 and before that a look at the St. Valentines Day Massacre.

I think I need to get some more documentaries.

Watched Behind Enemy Lines 1,2 and 3 whilst on the cross trainer this week, very easy to keep going, very interesting movies, especially the first two. Loosely based on true stories. Well the 2nd one only implies it but still!

Also watched The Kingdom, loosely based on the bombing of the Riyadh compound in Saudi Arabia. Had no idea it even existed, ver interesting movie. Kingswood is it really like that?

And The Green Zone, a surprising movie by the us without much flag waving, really enjoyed it. Not that I mind the flag waving, ( obviously by my other reviews!) but that's what made it surprising.

A while back watched 13 days, that was a really good movie, and I knew nothing about the incident, so educational!


Hubby, me and junior watched Indiana jones, OMG the acting is so bad! 2nd one was better. Still 2 to go!

I watched The Simpsons Movie this afternoon, I liked it, moreso than the Family Guy movie, just because it offered something that wasn't seen before in the Simpsons.

Latest movie I watched was Independence Day with Bill Pullman, Jeff Goldblum and Will Smith.

It's good for entertainment, but I wouldn't say it's a great movie.
