Iron Man

*****

Superhero movie with a more grown-up edge. Its not laden with action just 3/4 excellent sequences. The most enjoyable scenes are in the lab with the Iron Man going through testing/evaluation. Witty dialogue - Downey is cool, Paltrow not so much but...

Blades of Glory

*****

The most stupid film I've seen in two months and I wouldn't change a second of it. Not perfection like Kingpin but belly-laugh brilliant and worth watching just to see Will Ferrell in a leotard. The acting is all hammed and the ice-skating is...

Babel Movie

*****

If it's a choice between watching this movie or watching paint dry, go with the paint. Another "worthy" mind-numbing waste of time and money. Tourist in Morocco is shot by gun used by two kids which was given to someone they know by Japanese tourist...

*****

Standard, run of mill, by the book etc etc thriller. Based on a tiger kidnap of Harrison Ford's family. Ford character works in the bank and is a mix of tech guru/bank manager. Never during movie was I remotely worried that family was in danger, knew...

21

*****

The movie 21 is based on the book Bringing Down the House by Ben Mezrich. It's the story of a group of MIT students who spend their weekends in casinos counting cards, taking the house for big money playing blackjack. The book was a gripping...

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

*****

DUBLIN, IRELAND - The entertainmentireland website review says it all: "How good is The Diving Bell And The Butterfly? It's ridiculously good." I can't recommend this film enough. Firstly, it's a very very sad story, but yet utterly captivating and...

Into The Wild

*****

The only thing I knew about this movie sitting down was that my wife had read the book a few years ago and Sean Penn directed it. I eventually gave up after two hours of watching a selfish brat do whatever he wanted. The story follows a young man who...
