Fast and the Furious 3: Tokyo Drift

7/10

Its rubbish really. The story is pathetic and the set pieces are unbelievable (the Japanese Yakuza settling a problem with some punk kid by having a car race? I dont think so), but the only reason you would go to see this film is for the cars anyway and the races all look great. It was as fun to watch as the other two, possibly even better than #2 and there is a nice surprise at the end for fans of the series.

If you are wanting some great acting, a heart wrentching story and some brilliantly detailed drama, then this isnt for you. If you want Japanese girls in short skirts driving customised sports cars then I think you'll love it.

It's a great film. I'm looking forward to seeing it again.
Tonight though I have Law Abiding Citizen. I'm not expecting much.

Watched Beauty & The Beast on Blu Ray last night,stunning transfer of a classic film.Read somewhere that it has actually outsold Iron Man 2 in the States !.Just had Scott Pilgrim Vs The World from the US,hoping to watch that tonight as I missed it at the cinema.

The Proposal
The wife's choice but it was actually a decent film and amusing at times.

Marmaduke. Yes, the dog film.

It was pretty funny actually. I'm big enough to admit I love kids films and am quite happy for forgo any sense of intricate plot for a good piece of family entertainment. Helped having Owen Wilson as the voice of Marmaduke. What impressed me most, though, was how they did the brilliant mouth movements for the voices.

Went to see Saw 3D on Saturday night and it was exactly what I was expecting it to be, weirder and more elaborate traps from the last one with limbs and blood flying 'from ' the screen.

It's been getting panned by the critics, but I enjoyed it.

Planned for the next fortnight: Jackass 3D.

I'm lucky to have a classic cinema in my area. Oldest cinema in Liverpool :) Although I still prefer FACT in town.

Wish my cinema was like that. The cinema we have is the Odeon and depending on the films, the employees stand by the doors into the cinema which are unfortunately near the exit.

Cinemas these days are 'posh' affairs compared to 'way back when' but perhaps if I told you the cinema's 'nickname' then perhaps you might see how easy it was to see a film for free...it was called 'The Flea Pit' .... :¬ (

Bubba Ho-Tep 5/10

I'm sure there's a good point being made here about old people being given something to live for but it's wasted in a film that is the definition of average.
