| Re: Films...your scores Last film I saw was G-Force (3D).
Loved watching it with kids all around me as the effects of the 3D had some them jumping out of their seats to "catch" things. Movie itself was a good kiddy one but the 3D effects did it for me.
Score from a family point of view 8/10
Last Blu-ray I purchased:
Knowing:: Nicholas Cage
Bought on a hunch, quick read of the sleeve and thought that sounded good.
So disappointed...very slow, missed the fear factor by miles, where there should have been tension NC looked lost in the scene. Its a disaster movie with a horrible ending and to crown it out the symbolism in the last scene is pathetic.
If you do watch it make sure you have two prozacs and a glass of water handy for when it finishes.
Waste of money, if you need to purchase wait until it comes way down in price and just get it on dvd.
Score....3/10

| Re: Films...your scores I agree, The Departed put together 4 brilliant actors in 1 film it was very powerful.
best bit for me was when Walburg broke down Decaprio when he was asked why he wanted to join them, that was a good bit of writing and acting.  |

I was amazed by this film, it was excellant, Delighted by the way it entices you to develope such a love/hate relationship with the main character through out the films' progress.
9/10

| Re: Films...your scores Terminator Salvation
Acting 7/10
Film 8/10
Possibilities of this film were Huge!, but it just did'nt deliver. Wooden acting and not enough 'fear' feeling from the new and awesome machines/terminators.
Could of been a LOT better. And there's talk of another 2 films?

The graphics were done really well, with also the story of the movie. It took it a little while to get going. All in all I really enjoyed it for a alien type of movie. |

Last Blu-ray you bought same as above. | District 9, 5 out of ten (no boobies), but better than G.I. Joe (except for the hot chick)
Last DVD was Dead like me (the movie spin of of the tv show) a solid 7.5
Blu-ray can kiss my ass, there are only a few to choose from at the store, therefore I shall wait to purchase one when the price comes down a bit or when there are more movies to rent. |

Have to say though the new ones are still too pricey

| Re: Films...your scores Yup, I think it has to do with the whole HD vs Blu-ray fight. Once the format of choice is in stone the price should come down and more vids should come out.
Think VHS vs Beta |

Definately needs a good tv/screen to see the benefits
