MI3 - pretty good action flick, very Alias like though - suppose since director/producer of Alias is the director of MI3. I enjoyed it immensely.

Posiedon - cruise ship gets hit by a rogue wave, turns upside down and a group of people try to find a way out. Short on character development (lil over 90min compared to 180min original), but another good fast paced movie.

I am going to see the new Prirates, Cars, Over The Hedge and that's it.

The Da Vinci Code has been seriously panned by the critics here in the UK!

Da Vinci Code - not bad IMHO. I haven't read the book yet, so not sure how different it is, but I thought it was good. I did think it was a bit long/slow at points, but never checked my watch, so guess thats a good sign. This will make a heap of dosh - I'm pretty positive of that, and by the way critics did pan it, but it wasn't anywhere near as bad as they made out. Think of it as a thinking man's National Treasure.

Sorry, Brit - I've got to disagree. I thought it was a load of cobblers. Just shows - great director (Ron Howard), great cast (Hanks, Bettany, McKellen, Tatou) and a pretty good book (hardly Dickens but not a bad read) couldn't make this good.

I don't know who did the screenplay, but they shouldn't give up the day job.

Do you think you expected more because you read the book? (find if I read a good book and then a movie is made of it - I'm always disappointed)

I read the book and enjoyed it. I fell asleep during the movie. Hubby wanted to know why we spent the money for me to snore! From what I saw, it was alright but no where as good as the book. I wish now, I had watched MI3.

Da Vinci code - pretty lame, ditto for Posideon, although slightly better.

The new Superman movie will be best movie this summer I reckon. And the worst? Almost certainly it will be Tokyo Drift, the latest Fast & Furious installment...

XMen 3 - not bad, but def didnt follow the comic from what I remember. Lots of the characters were killed off or made non-mutant. Anyways still worth the price to go see - good action and entertainment value.

I'm waiting for my buddy to bring me back "Hostel" Quentin Tarrentino's latest. Love his stuff. Anybody seen it yet?

Book was pretty good, although tangential ramblings and a lack of continuity in parts spoit it a bit. Probably not worth seeing the movie after the book.

Superman could be a good 'un.

Actually produced by Quentin Tartino - director was some young lad who did another horror flick called Cabin Fever. Anyways hostel is quite good - had a good laff sort follows the motto if its too good to be true then it usually is. Over the top violent and certainly gives Bratsliva a good name. (hot birds though)

I saw it last week, thought it was not very good , thinking of going to see Poseidon next - is it any good??

I've got them both for you MrB! They'll be back with Billy next week!

You are a true diamond Prof, cheers buddy. Will you be gracing our watering hole for the World Cup?

Cheers Brit, i am looking forward to seeing it now.

Living Dolls?????

MI3. Is it good? Just burning it now.

Just seen The Da Vinci Code. Very faithful to the book - which is where lies the problem! Perhaps the makers of the film were trying to expose the book for what it is - by recreating the appallingly unfeasible dialogue. Maybe it will be seen as a work of genius in years to come!

Poseidon - pretty good IMHO. Streamlined from the original (lil over 90min) - don't get the rubbish background info. Straight into the action - I enjoyed it immensely.

The Break-Up - Jen Anniston/Vince Vaughn

Big Miss. It wasn't funny in my opinion - expected more. I kept looking at me watch and was relieved when it was over.

I liked "Cars", Pixar's latest effort, however my 3yr old has no interest in it. Normally he goes crazy for their movies.

For me the movie of the summer will be Pirates 2. Trailer looks fantastic and the role fits Depp like a glove now

Click - Adam Sandler/Kate Beckingsdale Comedy

Hit - pretty funny and enjoyable film... a truely universal remote control for one's life. Sort of a take on It's a Wonderful Life and Christopher Walken steals the scenes he is in.
