Name: Wedding Crashers

Genre: Comedy/romance (some nudity/sex)

Director: David Dobkin

Actors:Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams, Christopher Walken

Score out of 10: a big 9

Your opinion: Really funny with some great lines. About two fellas "living the dream", scoring girls from weddings. They get themselves invited to the Wedding of the year when what they have been avoiding happens - they meet girls they actually like.

Many good lines and worth watching again

Name: Ten Canoes

Genre: Whimsey

Director: Rolf De Heer

Actors: Lot's of Erstwhile Unknown Koori's. David Gullpilil narration.

Score out of 10: 8

Your opinion: Very, very enjoyable movie. Set in Arnhem Land and the first movie to ever feature only an Australian Indigenous Language on screen (english Narration however). Fantastically shot with alot of quiet humour, barely anything makes you laugh out loud, but you smile to yourself the whole way through.

Brilliant Moral at the end too.

Lumpy :spoton:

Name: V is for vendetta

Genre: Sci-Fi / drama

Director: James McTeigue

Actors: Lot's of pommy ability

Score out of 10: 9

Your opinion: I really like this film though its a film based on a comic, think Kill bill without the Tarrenteno style (and it does not suffer because of this!). A bit 1984 + brazil, put together with a darker sense of humor, not your typical spoon fed hollywood brainless pulp an ending that really does the film justice, It's well worth the watch.

Name: Hoodwinked

Genre: Comedy

Director

Actors: The usual suspects, Red (riding hood) the Wolf, GGGranny, the Woodsman, the three little cops (policeofficers), Webby (the detective frog) the list goes on.

Score: 9 out of 10

Your opinion of it:

Very entertaining! It turns the well known fairy tale of red riding hood to a who dunnit with hilarious results. Watch for the references to other well known fables as well as to movies. GGGranny is really a XXX character and Red Riding hood is a fast talking, hip chick with a black belt.

I know these films are supposed to be kiddy flicks, but I doubt that most kids would understand the references to other movies.

I always thoroughly enjoy most kiddy flicks and this is no exception.

The CGI was top notch and the characters had real depth, for something that isn't real that is. I could watch it again and not be bored stupid. This has something for everyone.

Oh, and there's a happily ever after with a twist :danceforme:

I liked it too. Might peg it for a 7/10. Probably worth adding to the collective if you have little ones (or cater to your inner child).

Your opinion: A feel good movie about loyalty, friendship and survival. The team of dogs must be left behind in antartica when the scientific crew have to leave due to injuries and onset of bad storms. the dogs have to survive months on their own, until the weather is safe enough for the crew to return.

Name: Inside Man

Genre: drama/action

Director: Spike Lee

Actors:Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Willem Dafoe, Jodie Foster, Christopher Plummer

Score out of 10: 9

Your opinion: Denzel and Jodie at their best. Denzel a detective with a shady past is sent in to head up negotiations of what appears to be a bank robbery with a hostage situation. Mastermind gang leader has intricately planned and staged the "hold up". Owner of the bank has dark secrets and hires Jodie to ensure this information stored in a safety deposit box doesn't get into the wrong hands.

A long movie that keeps you interested all the way through with twists and the unexpected. Not your run of the mill plot

Good watch :thumbsup:
