Jack and Jill - Had it's funny moments, but I expected it to be better. Al Pacino looks weird trying to be funny. :D

The Grey - The plot really suited Liam Neeson's style. I enjoyed it a lot.

I actually watched that a few days ago and it wasn't really all that. Al Pacino was the funniest thing about the movie so what does that tell you?

Al Pacino was funny? Except from when he quoted that Godfather scene, I found him really awkward. But hey, it could be just me. :D

The Adventures of Tintin - Brilliant. Probably the best animated movie I've seen so far. Animations are simply brilliant, most of the time it looks like a real thing, it's simply :tup:
Thank you, I was afraid you would be your usual weird self in your take when you said you would see it :D Its truly enjoyable adventure, very nostalgic for me, cant wait for the 2nd movie.

Lol no I said he was the funniest thing about the movie. There was one scene where he hit Jill with the chair that I did consider slightly redeemable. :D

Oh and Jack was lost in the background. Even Jill outshone him.

My reviews are excellent, it's you people who are weird! :D

Yeah, can't wait for the second. I just loved it and I still can't believe some of those animations, those chase parts were amazing. Perfectly balanced entertainment and humor too.

This weekend I watched...

Hanna: I thought it was a good action/spy flick. Well made, but I didn't really like the overuse of montage to get from one plot point to another. Same director that did Atonement and Pride and Prejudice, so it was cool to see him do something less serious.

Drive: I liked it a lot. Every scene is a picture and the 80s-esque soundtrack adds to Goslings "cool". Very neat driving film right up there with Vanishing Point etc.
