Schindler's List

I watched this in Humanities and some scenes really made me feel uncomfortable and lead me to not wanting to watch anymore, but it is a really depthful good film.

Nolan has never made a bad film. I mean, the story is kinda slight, but he imbues the whole narrative with so much dramatic tension and wonderful pacing that you're just immediately absorbed into the whole affair.

Haha I know - it's almost impossible to fault him lately. I think the performances weren't particularly brilliant (Jackman in particular could've been better) but the themes it dealt with (whilst unoriginal) were great. Plus there's Bowie. It's like they're trying to make it my favourite movie

----------------------------------

Took my niece & brother to see The Sorcerer's Apprentice last night. It's incredibly predictable and cheesy but there're a quite a lot of funny moments, the characters are interesting enough to keep your attention, and the effects/action are pretty great. Nicolas Cage is on a good streak.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service. One of the best ever Bond's and I only realised after this watch why it was so succesful - George Lazenby.

Yeah yeah, I know it sounds funny but when you consider the narrative in question, in which they needed a new Bond to fulfill it's promise - not the superhero Connery Bond, but a more physical, impulsive and yet more vulnerable Bond at the same time.

This was a more tactile, responsive secret agent, more attuned to his gift of ingenuity and creativity than his arsenal of gadgets. No wonder he failed, as did Dalton, when you see the rubbish that was being churned out at the time. I loved this though.

I didn't see On Her Majesty's Secret Service and I know Dalton didn't do so well in the Living Daylights, but he was great in Licence to Kill. Nothing like the cloying Pierce Brosnan (still the cheesiest Bond to this day) who succeeded him.

Oh, give The Living Daylights another go. It's a great Bond flick.

Actually I think I have seen every James Bond film!! Used to love them when I was younger. Not too bothered about them now though.

I would love to see a new one.. whenever they begin to film it again because didn't the film company who makes the James Bond films gone bankrupt or something? shame.

Nightshifts really balls up your internal clock. You'll soon get into the habit of working around the new shifts and it'll sort itself out. Does that mean we won't have the odd waffle from you at mad hours of the day anymore?

Piranha 3D.

Loved it! It didn't try to be anything other than what it was - a fun, gory and comedic exploitation flick that, surprisingly, offered quite a few genuine scares. Good soundtrack too.

Chidlren of the corn 2 - Was not that bad, funny then anything

Children of the corn 3 - Favourite one so far, wasent scary, but like 2 was funny, but also creepy

Children of the Corn 4 and 5 - **** is too nice of a word for these terrible sequals.
