Oh nice, I hadn't thought that maybe this was going to be my cup of tea, I was told about it by Belinda and decided to watch it. she believed it was something I'd enjoy, and I did.

I am watching Identity Theft again, I love this movie, Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman, a very good movie.

Thanks, aside from sunburn today I am pretty good. :)

Just watched the new Mad max movie, fury road.

Not bad. Some of the visuals were spectacular and how so many of the stunts were real instead of green screen stuff was utter wow.

I'm not sure about the new guy as Max but he kept to the same character as the original which was good.

The Martian
Wait for the DVD

cross between Apollo 13 on steroids and castaway without the beloved Wilson.
Matt Damon is good and very cute, but sloooow, not as bad as gravity which truly, um, sucked!

You're in small company with Gravity, I thought it was pretty good.

Guess it depends on your love of Sci Fi.

I was so disappointed by Gravity. I'd heard so many good things about it ("next 2001: A Space Odyssey", etc.), but it seemed pretty much like a glorified theme park ride. And completely implausible, too. I'd love to see more high concept sci-fi - I heard Interstellar was really good, but I'm afraid of getting burnt again. :P

It wasn't a masterpiece by any stretch of the imagination, but it was an entertaining, throwaway movie.

Going to watch Interstellar soon, i'll get back to you :lol:

Waiting for The Dressmaker to come out. The shorts show Kate Winslet doing an impressive Aussie accent. Looks enjoyable enough.
