Now this was the film I wanted to watch with four friends on Saturday, but was OUT-VOTED and ended up watching Ouija.
Not an easy film to watch (for me anyway, I'm not a Horror fan) and it will put you off using Dental Floss for a while :shock:

Went to see Interstellar last night. Still buzzing about it. There is simply too much to talk about with this film, suffice to say I (like many others) think this is a master piece in the making.
Visually it is something else. The story manages to be big and small at the same time and the bredth of ambition is something we haven't seen on screen for a long time. But with all that it is still an intense, intimate, emotional film.
Put simply this is a film everyone needs to see, and see it on the biggest baddest screen you can find (I watched it on the 4k screen in Leicester Square).
Oh, and the full trailers for the Hobbit (my tickets for the 12th are in hand) and Exodus which played before the film are awsome.
Also watched Chef yesterday, not to get lost in the mega hype of Interstellar, Chef was a vey nice, harmless film that you simply just smile at and move on from, enjoyable but one for the sofa on a Sunday afternoon I think.

Interstellar is fantastic.....in my opinion. I say that cause I can see why people wouldn't like it. I saw it for the second time tonight and it all made a lot more sense second time round and it moved me a lot. Being parent I seem to blubber a lot more at films now. Cracking movie.

Got to agree with you mate, I enjoyed it but can see why the critics have picked holes in it and why others might not like it...
Mazerunners was really cool if a little 'teenage' especially towards the end, looking forward to the next installments.
Ninja Turtlse was real good fun. Took the little un and his mates, it kept them transfixed and quiet all the way through. I asked them if they liked it and they said it was the best film they had ever seen, I almost agreed... well maybe not but it was so much better than I was expecting.

Watched the new Robocop yesterday. Not as bad as I thought it would be, a few nods to the original but not so much an action film as a film about a bloke who's been turned into a robot, if you know what I mean.
Also watched Hummingbird with Jason Statham. Not what I was expecting at all but an interesting little film nevertheless, simply because its not what you normally get from our Jase

Interstellar - I'm going on Friday, so I'll keep an open mind. Really looking forward to it now after hearing a few positive reviews. 
Robocop - Thought it was one of the better remakes (Dredd was brilliant remake!)
Ninja Turtles - my 6 year old saw it and loved it too! Michaelangelo is his favourite. Fart jokes etc :lol:
Recommendation:-
Killer Joe - If you like Matthew McConaughey's recent great form watch this. This is where his career resurgence started - you may never eat a KFC drumstick again though!

Finally got round to watching STAR TREK: INTO DARKNESS.
left me feeling exactly the same way as the first one - it was ok - some good bits, some bad.
Chris Pine, Karl Urban and Zachary Quinto make a really good trio, there's a spark there. Pine really nails Kirk I think, he was a good choice.
I'm going to be in the minority here but I'm a bit sick of seeing Benedict Cumberbatch everywhere - I just don't get it. Not sure he pulled Kahn off.
I'll give it another 2 viewings before I cement my opinion on it as I think the film deserves that, but I'm totally on the fence at the moment.

Interstellar is a lot like eating bread all day every day with occasional cheddar bits.

Interstellar.. big epic film. SPOILERS : Lots I enjoyed about it, lots annoyed me. Mostly annoyed by thethe earth dying off and humanity about to starve, but because it was localised to one area, as a Brit I didn't feel that it was anything other than some yank farmers wingeing about dust clouds. With such an epic scale to the film, it just appeared misappropriated, which meant the sudden departure of a guy to leave his kids which he may never see again didn't appear as genuine as it wanted to be. From that point, once into space it was a much better cohesive story line. I loved the relativity scenario being played out, the wormhole, the tech, the robot (which spooked me) - all that stuff until the end was fun sci-fi, even the reveal of only ever a PLAN B was excellent, the communication scene was muddled but it reminded me of 2001ASO. The emotional scenes of the messages when time had passed were heartbreaking/tear inducing. The loop of the film was fun.
Mockingjay Part 1: I saw the first film, missed the second, fell asleep for the first 30 but sort of enjoyed it. I took my frenzied niece to see it and she has read the books and loved it. I just kept thinking of Jennifer Lawrence and her rude pictures. Nice to see Donald Sutherland playing the bad guy.
Transformers 4: Hahah. Love this crap. Lots of massive fights, amazing effects, weird director obsession with teenage girls short skirt, utter nonsense, but thoroughly watchable when not bothered to have to think much.

Not a film as such but the first trailer for Jurrassic World is out and ooooooh. Overall it is well pitched, not too sure how the details revealed turn into a full story but alongside as certain space based franchise continuing I am super psyched for this one...
