It’s been a while since I posted a review after a movie, i’ve seen others this summer such as Wanted and Hancock, but when a movie is this good I think it makes you want to talk about it, so here we go.

Before seeing this movie I tried to stay away from as much info and plot spoilers as possible, and perhaps that makes these types of movies better but whilst my opinion of the first batman movie (or should I say the last one, Batman Begins) is lower than average people I thought that this movie was outstanding.

It just had that real blockbuster feel to it that all to often is lacking these days, it lived up to the hype, it surpassed it in some areas, and Heath Ledger really does steal the movie for me with a really great performance. If you still havn’t got around to seeing this at the cinema, do try, it will be worth it.

I’ve had a pretty busy week this week and I’ve been meaning to find a second or two in which to update my blog, but as more time passed I wanted to find a longer period of time free as I then had more things to write about, until I found myself in this situation where the blog has not been updated and all the things I wanted to say no longer hold any relevance, that’s procrastination for you.

The video above was shown as a little advert before my cinema showed Indiana Jones 4, which I watched just this evening and man the first half is an Amazing film but then it decides to take a left turn into the realms of science fiction and fantasy departing from the traditional Indiana adventure and I found myself quite disappointed. All the negative reviews I had heard thus far complained that Harrison Ford was looking too old, but I don’t think thats true at all , sure he’s older, but the date in the film is ten years later anyway.

New trailer just out, I’m looking forward to this with great expectation. Having grown up with the Indiana Jones films, you just know that it’s not going to disappoint, unlike some modern day versions (*cough* National Treasure *cough*).

I think it’s going to leave me with that warm fuzzy feeling of nostalgia and awesomeness, much like Die Hard 4 gave us last year. Personally I’m all for these late film sequels, I guess it’s because you know what your in for, and you know it’s good.

I managed to have the good fortune to see Hot Fuzz at the weekend, and it far surpassed my expectations. It easily equals shaun of the dead if not surpasses it, so if your a fan of simon pegg or the ’spaced’ series this should’nt be missed!

That is the new title of the new Die Hard 4 film , heres the you tube version below or if you like you can visit the original link for a marginally better quality (but not much)

Whilst cruising the net I stumbled upon these. Apparently David Brent (Ricky Gervais) did a staff training video for Microsoft UK.
They are pretty lengthy, but if you watch to the end there’s even some outakes

A random vid on YOUTUBE, catchy tune and fun with running machines..

New film coming to town, with a nice new approach to the norm, Filmed properly then “comicified” and oh does it look very very pretty.

Starring Keanu Reeves, Robert Downey Jr, Woody Harrelson & Winona Rider the trailer is quite mesmerising and i’m sure it’s going to be a hit whether its any good or not.

Check out the trailer here.

Just got back in from watching POTC2 at the cinema, and I must say it was much better that I thought it could be! Everything I loved about the first movie still remained, with even more greatness added in.

I have heard people say it was somehow dissapointing, let me just say right here and now, that is a load of crapola. This film is excellent in every way and I’m even gonna go watch it again. If you loved the first film your gonna love this one even more.

The jokes were spot on, the action was everywhere, and the effects well who really cares about the effects when you have johnny depp, but even so wow. It’s a long film, and even so I wasn’t bored in any of the scenes what-so-ever, the action scenes were amazing and the jokes were plentiful and I laughed out loud a couple of times, all in all a real enjoyment to watch.

Now i just have to wait for the 3rd film.
