Miracle On 34th Street 1973

I have seen the other two movies, never saw this movie before until , this was not as good as the original or 1994 remake

I just could not get into this movie at all, This movie was missing something, I can not put my finger on it!

I just didn't enjoy it, while i was watching, it took me while to get into the movie, as most of the movie scene from scene remake but scenes felt empty and still

The Imitation Game - I saw it this afternoon




Surprisingly this one was emotional, based on the account of how the Enigma code was broken and the birth of the computers we use today to write on this forum

THE GIVER.

Meryl Streep was great as always, also jeff bridges was great to watch. The concept was awesome, but again, the ending was just so ****ing dull and predictable. So much great acting talent, but the story just had nothing left at the end. (i didn't read the book)

Kid Cannabis 7/10

Decent movie. Funny and tense throughout & its based on a true story which makes it even better.

Edge of Tomorrow - 7/10 - A nice surprise, so much better than the trailers made it look. Great action film with loads of humour and Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt were excellent together.

Bad Neighbours - 4.5/10 - A bit let down by this, I think there were only two scenes that made me laugh: the Robert De Niro impression part and the fight between Seth and Zac Efron. I usually really like Seth Rogen films but this was just a slightly below average comedy. Probably would have liked it more when I was about 16.

Let's Be Cops - 5/10 - Same as above, except I didn't really go into this one with any expectations. The actual plot was fun and the scene when they come across that huge naked obese criminal that lands on top of Wayans' character was hilarious.

Divergent - 6.5/10 - Wasn't expecting too much from this but I enjoyed it. Looking forward to the sequel. Also, Shailene

Aaliyah: Princess of R&B - 1/10 - Complete fiction passed off as a true story, should never have been made and is very offensive to Aaliyah's family and the others portrayed in the story.

If I Stay - 5/10 - Could have been much better. Chloe Moretz turned in a good performance and I enjoyed the flashback scenes, but all the scenes in present day were a little underwhelming.

The Mockingjay part 1 - It was a bit filler-ish but I still enjoyed it 7/10

The Mockingjay: Wasn't as good as the other two, it was a bit of a run up towards the part 2, but I still liked it

7.5/10

The Hobbit : The battle of the five armies - Brilliant, best one of the series by far, action from start to finish pretty much, it was fantastic in 3D as well, would recommend seeing it at the cinema in 3D if possible 9/10

Skyfall, yesterday on ITV or ITV1.

Very good Bond movie, i think the best where Daniel Craig has starred as of yet. Javier Bardem was quite good as a Bond villain. M´s (Judi Dench) death was quite moving. Good acting, good story (somewhat), good cinematography/directing, good special effects and great music/sound effects (except the theme tune). 8,35/10.

I finally somewhat understand all the hype now.

Godzilla - 8/10 - I really enjoyed it even though I had read some pretty bad reviews so wasn't expecting much.

Captain America The Winter Soldier - 8/10 - Decent movie, looking forward to the next instalment.

The theory of Everything - it was pretty good, I never actually knew what had happened to Stephen Hawking 6.5/10

Predestination - it was really mind melting but good 7/10

The Signal - it was another strange one, I only kept watching to see would happen at the end, it was ok 6/10

The Avengers Assemble, BBC1 Yesterday - Nice movie, lots of action and the special effects were marvelous. 7,8/10

The Dark Knight, TBS, 4:30 AM - Finally watched all the way through. A masterpiece throughout, everything just worked. Heath Ledger as Joker was pure genius, so sad that he is no longer with us. Was also hoping Harvey Two-Face/Dent would be longer in the movie/stay alive for a chance to appear in possible future edition. 9,4/10
