I think I saw Wanted about a year ago. I won't say what I think of James McAvoy (not a fan), but it was one of the most grossly unpleasant and boring action movies I've seen in recent times. I wouldn't have minded the fact that the lead character was so unlikeable if he had any charisma.

It was fairly rubbish alright, but I have to disagree with you on McAvoy - he was the only thing that kept me interested in the whole exercise. That's not saying much though!

I enjoyed the ridiculousness of it and found McAvoy to be its only let-down, haha, I hated his constant screaming to begin with.

It's was pure silliness, which I didn't really mind so much, but I'll never watch it again, you know that way? Actually I thought McAvoy was great in it: was searching my mind to think of anyone else who could have pulled it off. Anyone else would have made it totally stupid - he's a good little actor. Could you imagine Anakin Skywalker in it or something? The horror!

Fatal Attraction.

Noone has ever played the bunny boiler character better than Glenn Close in that film imo.

Synecdoche, New York. - Wont be to everyones tastes, with it's twisting of narrative and timeline, plus it's frustating and oftentimes bewildering experimentation with the medium, but in my view this hugely personal and inventive exploration of what is is to be human is an existential masterpiece.

Ice Age

Never seen any of the three films, so I thought I'd give them a go. My god, it was just terrible. Simply incomparable to any Pixar classics. I think I'll skip the next two.

The Crazies - the 1973 original. I watched it in preparation for the re-make that comes out next week.

To be honest, I was very disappointed. Easily some of Romero's worst work. It didn't carry the same chilling feel of his Zombie flicks, it wasn't at all suspenseful and at times I completely zoned out due to boredom.

If anything, I know that the Hollywood re-make is bound to be at least mildly entertaining, so I haven't been completely put off going to see it.
