Divergent - one of the worse films to watch if you're over 15. Shit like this should come with a health warning.
The Fault in our Stars - Equally as bad as Divergent and involves the same leading actress! Unforgivable Hollywood wank that attempts to pull on all emotional strings...evil...

Prisoners is a good Paul Dano performance, and not a bad film.

New indie Australian film Predestination might be up your ally. It's got flaws but there's some nice touches in it too, based on a Heinlein short story apparently.
I loved The Last Trumpet Ballad

And her brother in the former plays her boyfriend in the latter.

Out of the Furnace.
Christian Bale, Casey Affleck, Forest Whittaker, Woody Harrelson and Zoe Saldana . Bale's brother gets done over by meth criminals and goes for revenge. There's an underlying criticism of politics, war and the economy, lots of acting. It's like Winter's Bone but not quite as good. Worth watching just for the cast though.

There's going to be a sequel, I think.

The Lookout - French crime piece starring Daniel Auteuil, load of old tosh, a bit of a dog's dinner really snipers and bank robbers obviously weren't enough for the writers so they added a serial killer in there for good measure. Not unwatchable but really unimaginative and slap dash.

this could be the start of a new Carry On franchise.
Another Simon Rumley film...The Living and the Dead.
I'm not sure I got it. A couple and their son, who has learning difficulties/mental health problems live in a mansion. Mum is sick and dad has to go away. Son wants to look after her and prevents her nurse from coming in to help out. It's dark as fuck and there's a bit of flashback and forward along with 'delusional' scenes that lost me. The final scenes suggest an ending but I'm not sure I was right and reading online hasn't helped. The son's part is well played if a bit over the top.
Anyone else seen it?

Yes, enjoyed it. Not the easiest of films though.

Been in bed with the lurgy for the last few days
I've finally got round to watching the Top Boy series from C4 . It's most excellent.
Some of the acting is clunky but if you want proper gritty drama, this is it.
I've been alternating them with old Alan Partridge episodes. I know them by heart but they still make me laugh

Most of 'Paradise: Love'. Had to stop it because The Walking Dead was coming on. Will resume later today. Interesting film and subject matter.

Inbetweeners2. After fifteen minutes it suddenly came to me that with hindsight I was somewhat surprsied that my step daughter (17 year old) s father took her and her brother for a long awaited 'family day out' to see this.Must have been a bit uncomfortable in the first twenty minutes. Old adage that good tv series doesn't translate well into a film was even truer than the first one. There are some good bits mainly the speech about white trustafarian but to be honest some of us said the same thing on here ten years ago and the humour was far better in a concentrated 25 mins episode where they paid more attention to detail.Light weight comedy that plays to a safe lowest common denominator and I hope for the memory of the TV series they don't make Inbetweeners 3.

I liked it tbh , the food , the sound track, the use of twitter and the humour more than made up for the slightly schmaltzy father son bonding getting back with the ex wife story.
Terminator (Directors Cut) and finished Breaking Bad. Hadn't seen the last series and had missed a few in between so watched the whole thing from the start again over the last couple weeks.

There's a director's cut of Terminator...the first one?
Srry No, I meant Alien (Directors Cut) but somehow chose Terminator from the post above rather than Alien
