The Lego Movie had more lols than I ever expected. What a pleasant surprise.

Another Earth 8/10

 

I really enjoyed this low fi sci fi, it reminded me a lot of the Shane Carruth films. Dialogue was a little clunky in parts but mostly good, great cinematography.

The Happening - slol/10

 

Caught the 2nd half of this turd whilst pretty buzzed last night. Lols were had at the sheer spectacle of inept direction, flatline acting, abortion of thought, and the confounding realisation that Shyamalan was directing this as a serious film. In my mind it has serious drinking game potential.

When John Leguizamo is the best actor in a movie, you know there's something wrong in the world.

guardians of the galaxy-best marvel/comicbook movie i,ve seen in a long while,pretty funny too 8/10

[Silent Member]

I agree, still they should try something different for their finales, I feel all of the Marvel movies I watched recently are ending with some variation on an epic fight going on in something airborne hurtling towards the ground, preferably during a big city invasion.

Ronan came off as kind of a pussy in the movie, he swung his hammer what twice? In the comics he and Thor have had some cool hammer on hammer battles.
