Film Reviews

Quantum of Solace
8/10
Had difficulty following who the bad guys were. Storyline not as good as Casino Royale.

Max Payne
3/10
Linear story line like the game.

Starship Troopers 2
2/10
Flat story filmed mainly in the dark to save costs

The Reader 
4/10
A sense of duty to watch it to the end. Predictable and ultimately a loss of 2 hours from my life.

The Day The Earth Stood Still 
6/10
How to spoil a classic…
No massive spaceship, just a bright sphere.
Gort is not a real robot and turns into cloud of flies.
Hardly a mention of “Klaatu barada nikto”

The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants 2
1/10
The original was watchable but this was not.

Valkyrie
8/10
Excellent Tom Cruise film showing the American version of history.

Body of Lies
7/10
Good plot and characterisation. Very watchable.

Bedtime Stories
6/10
Walt Disney for kids and no sex but Adam Sandler is great.
