Ditto, it's Moore's best bond flick, loved the bond theme too.

The Woman (2011).

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1714208/

I don't know what I was expecting with this. Wild woman is found in the woods, living like a savage. Yeah, sure enough, that's what I was expecting.

However, the story that transpires is quite weird, bizarre - something's not quite right. And I'm not talking about the woman.

You'll never guess the last 30 minutes. For me everything that happens took me by surprise. Lots of shocks in store.

I give it 8.5/10.

Hostel Part III (2011)

The Tree of Life (2011)



Instead having a vague journey in terms of the circle & meaning of life, suffering & death, it could be a very fine family drama on a conflicting relationship between a father & son. But at times it was like watching a documentary program on NAT GEO or Discovery channel. Bored & disappointed.

The Lovely Bones (2009) Normally I avoid saccharine sweet slopfests like this but it was directed by Peter Jackson so had to check it out. There's plenty of panoramic vistas redolent of his Lord of the rings films plus an exquisite score featuring cocteau twins, explosions in the sky and this mortal coil. However film4 warned at the start that the movie contained "chilling violence" so I was expecting that and there was absolutely none so thank you film4 for ruining the movie as I can't be objective about it now as I may have enjoyed it more had I not been expecting "chilling violence". Either way it was still messy unoriginal and pretentious (quoting Shakespere isn't intelligent it's lazy and BONE idle) despite it's plus points. Watch the far superior Enter The Void instead.

I still have to watch this and read the book. I really liked Off Season and Off Spring (Not so much the movie though.) So i've been very interested in this.

The Howling: One of my favourite movies from Joe Dante. Great atmosphere, quality story, amazing effects from Bottin and plenty of cameos to look out for (Dick Miller is awesome).

Man, I am totally with you on this. I'm a huge Malick fan, and was ready to love this film. But I thought it was really sloppy. Don't understand all the love it's getting.
