Watched "Rise Of The Footsoldier" yesterday.

It's an ULTRA violent soccer hooligan/essex gangster movie. Heaps more violent than "Green St Hooligans" if anyone has seen that.

It's based on a true story of the "Essex boys & ICF" in the early 80's - 90's. If you're not into, gangsters, bashings, torture, drugs, naked chicks, and millions of people getting shot in the face - I wouldn't watch it. But, like me, if you like all those things in a movie, its freakin great! And its not one of those wanky "American" movies either. This one has decent actors, with a decent script and heaps of 'real' action.

A boys movie however.... I wouldn't get it if you want a night in with the missus...

Gran Torino

Rating : 9/10

A fair bit of hype surrounding this movie and you can see why, not to many people could play a movie filled with an asian cast and spit out more offensive language then eastwood does as walt. the ending is predictable, yet not what you expect, its a pretty simple movie that is just done very well.

Got WallE out on Blue Ray on the weekend...

Classic! Only got it cos the girl wanted to see it, but I was actually amazed...

At the start, I didnt think I was gonna get into it, but its really, really good.

Iv seen Rise of the Footsoldier too...

Good violent film. Im from London, naturally I love films that involve any kind of football hooliganism, drugs and people gettin shot the f*k up! Pretty heavy film though so not really for the queazy ones out there.

Watched What happens in Vegas on the weekend too.

Not bad, pretty funny at times. Cam Diaz is still hottttt in a few scenes... Would still love to jump er'.

Watched 88 - Al Pacino film about a copycat killer... Not too bad, kind of predictable, but also takes a few wild twists so keeps ya thinkin and once you think you have it figured, but you dont! Not a must see, but ok to watch if ya have nothing else on!

Flyboys (2006)

Fictional story based on the true story of before the United States entered World War I, young Americans went to France to be fighter pilots, joining the Lafayette Escadrille.

Directed by Tony Bill the director of The Sting and an avid aviation buff.

Bloody fantastic dog fight scenes.

Just watched Wanted. Yeah I know it's old but I had to wait for the mrs to spend 4 hours at the hairdressers so I could watch it!

Great flick; anyone tries to tell you that Angelina is overrated is kidding themselves!
