Epidemic

Virus movie where the US president gets shot with a dart that unleashes a strain of ebola. Man I love disaster movies! Made for TV, was called conatagion in the usa. Not bad...

Johnny English

Jake wanted to watch this one so I went with it.
Not that bad, although exactly as expected. Some funny moments and then the others.
Kinda liked the bit where his tie got stuck in the sushi bar and the tattoo across the A B of C's butt.

The Wolf Man

Oh Larry, Larry, Larry...
"Wolves, Gypsies, Murder - what is all this?"



I love classic universal movies like this one. Made in 1941 starring Lon Chaney Jr as Larry/The Wolf Man as well as Claude Rains and also Bela Lugosi. It's a great film full of atmosphere - Jake and I were most impressed with the original transformation where Larry puts on a shirt before he goes out!

Awesome stuff.

A Night at the Opera

I bought a Marx Brothers DVD box set during the sale at the Virgin Megastore in Sheffield yesterday. I have seen some of their movies over the years but wanted to look a little closer and all that.

This is the first one and was created in 1935 - it has stood the test of time well. Some great visual gags and slapstick as well as sharp dialogue. I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to grabbing some of the others.

Welcome

So, welcome people to my new blog. This one is to catalogue the movies I've been a watching. This has existed in paper and on many a PDA before from the Psion 5 via Palm and last year on a pocket pc. Yet, they never get placed anywhere so I thought I'd play with a blog and list 'em that way - also allows you poor visitors to comment on the films and add your reviews, thoughts etc.

Get the popcorn out and see what's to see!
