I was trying to figure out the Robert Redford connection!

Can't believe I'm saying this but use punctuation! :P

To escape the heat this arvo, went to see 'Her' at Camberwell.
Recommend it.
Funny at times, frustrating but quite touching.
You wish the lead character (Joaquin Phoenix) well, but at the same time you want to slap him and say "what the &%%& are you doing!".
8.5/10

You're not the only one. Wouldn't pay to see him in anything. Same with Jim Carey. Actually, even on free to air, wouldn't waste the 2 hours.

The Wolf of Wall Street was an entertaining, nihilistic ride with a lot of LOLs.
In the end the rain comes down, washes clean the streets of a blue sky town.

Which one? Pitch Black was a ripper movie, the chronicles of Riddick not so good.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

3rd one, was released last week. Yeah I liked pitch black better than the 2nd, this I like better than both. I watched the first hour on my cross trainer, considering I was going to have an easy day, and not push it, I was pleasantly surprised I smashed all records on it! 577 cal and 7.6klm on an hour with the incline up, amazing what a good distraction can do!

Listing some weird crap for hubby, then I will watch the rest of it on the big screen! I will actually watch some of it again, cos it had some really good humour bits.

There is a blonde woman in it, she may have been in the other movies, or maybe the expendable so or something, but she is kick arse awesome! And there's a couple of other actors that have been in other action movies, you know the Russian guy from triple xxx that was the head bad guy? He's in it. Will probably re watch the others now.

Ps, I love the dog the best, I'm hoping he makes it to the end!!

I just watched it on Foxtel. Not bad. The blonde was tasty and I thought I recognised battista from the WWE, he was the big dude with the scraggly goatee.

I want one of them dogs and one of them hovercycle thingos. You can keep the *&^*(&%$% lizard things though.

Yeah I want the dog! The dog dying spoilt it for me! Love the bikes, very cool! Thought the big guy looked familiar.



If you want a really good movie, one that will keep you riveted, (I chewed all my nails down to the 2nd knuckle) watch captain Philips with tom hanks, OMG, it's brilliant, hanks is such a fantastic actor.

Even hubby stayed awake til the end!

Cheers

I really liked him in "Stranger than fiction" a film I quite enjoyed.
