Red Cliff (John Woo 2008) Vast Chinese historical epic. Surprisingly large number of explosions for 280 AD.
The raid 2 - excellent stuff. Miles better than the first, really builds on it.

All Is Lost.
Robert Redford on a boat, alone, almost no dialogue (I'm talking 30 words, max).
It's brilliant, honestly. And I loved Grand Budapest Hotel, tooOoh, sounds great, why I have never heard of it? 93% on Rotten Tomatoes, will give that a go.
We watched Grand Budapest Hotel, just the best, best shaggy dog story ever, Ralph Fiennes having a ball
The Trench
follows a group of soldiers in ww1 trenches in the last days before the Somme big one. Better than expected. Daniel Craig is the grizzled sergeant (his attempt on a regional accent is awful though, not sure where in the north of england he's meant to be from.) Cillian Murphy is in it, and Danny Dyer!
on iplayer.
A Separation (Ashgar Farhadi 2011) Another excellent Iranian film. A powerful and insightful portrayal of the messiness of life.
I watched the new trailer park boys one, don't legalize it. Oh my boys - what have you done. Not very good apart from a few classic Lahey scenes. Looked tired and at the end of the road...
