worked it out now!
Watched the final 2 episodes of The Wire season one.
Loved it. I have been renting them from LOVEfilm and it's taken a few months to watch the 13 episodes.

- some really poor acting.
- a great "made for dvd when you want to get pissed" tv show

Exasperated, not angry.
really? i was surprised at how convincing it was. I bet you're too young to have had much contact (uhh, not that kind) with pre-vatican 2 priests....
Just watched Michael Moore's Sicko.
Obviously made for the American audience, some of the NHS scenes were tad rosier than the norm (a city hospital casualty with no one waiting??!!), but still bloody well made, powerful stuff. The visit to Cuba was ace.

Having slept on it I probably did have too much to drink
Remember my eyes shutting a few times.you're right, I never did. Thinking about it it's all quite subtle, probably deserves a re-watch.

"Escape From New York" it was good to watch it again but nostalgia made me remember it as better than it actually was.
Lee Van Cleff is very hard though. In general not just in the film

Another one of your recommendations I take it? Or, actually, I wonder if it was Atomic Suplex..?

The Fall
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460791/
I wanted to watch this because of the story (man finds himself in hospital paralyzed and creates magical story to entice little girl to help him get pills so he can kill himself) - he creates a group of heroes in a magical land on a mission to save the main dudes brother.
The other main reason is because of the beautiful Baraka-esque photography that is used. Filmed in 18 countries the visual aspect seems to be more important than the actual story, and the acting unfortunately - that said it has gotten great reviews elsewhere so maybe its just me. Some of the gorgeous camera tricks and scenery capture also seems rather forced - like the makers tried to make so much of a point of a particular camera movement it loses its grace - the bit where the mans face turns into the scenery for example, I've seen similar effects in other films that are much more fluid and less focus is put on them so they become part of a beautiful movie rather than a certain action in order to make the movie beautiful.
Worth watching if you want amazing natural beauty, not so much if you prefer a solid story with good acting.

Well, it's my turn to recommend something to you then
True, but he does it very well.
Just watched In Bruges.
Brilliant - we were laughing like drains.
"like a big fat retarded fucking black girl on a see-saw opposite a dwarf."
WTF!
Get Smart- film about a man who wants to be a spy, at first his manager wont let him become a spy, but he battles against the odds to win his trust and eventually gets given a mission in Russia to find nuclear weapons that will threaten the world. Along the way he gets thrown out of a plane!!!! dances the tango at a ball!!!! and falls in love
This is an excellent, suspense filled action film, the ending is particularly good..... but I won't spoil it for you

Hardly getting over it.
Season one of "Spooks".
I'd forgotten the face-frying bit.

"Vantage Point" a good thriller which did require large amounts of suspending of belief at points plus Dennis Quaid looked permanantly constipated but on the whole enjoyable

What happened to Dubversion ?
The Wackness - Quite liked the soundtrack but the plot didn't seem to go anywhere

I watched The Ring (original Japanese version) and although it was still good, it wasn't anywhere near as scary as i'd found it originally

Yesterday I watched Anchorman and then The Notebook.
Today I fancied one of my faves - American Pie.
Later it will be a toss up between Nanny McPhee and Mary Poppins because bubs will be coming back home
Mary Poppins.

Oi! With the poodle already
He has three films coming later this year I think. I like looking at his face - all scrunchy and smooshy.

Mary Poppins.
Ahh, but Nanny McPhee has Colin Firth, and he is an embalmer in it too

Son of Rambow. Wanted to really like it but it fell quite short for me.
