No and after the film I wouldn't be bothered either. I only watched it because I normally like Sandra Bullock but this is just a nonsense movie really. All she kept reminding me of was Sarah Palin ... glib and superficial. I suppose if you had a bad dose of flu & you were brain dead from Nurofen it might do to pass the time. In normal health steer clear is my advice.

I just watched Jeux d'Enfants (Or... Cap Ou Pas Cap in english it's Love Me If You Dare.) It's an amazing French film!!! I absolutely fell in love with it! 100/10. haha...
Really reminded me of Amelie. I definetely recommend it.
So go watch it. NOW. haha...

Watched 'Bent' last night ... it's about the, often ignored, persecution of homosexuals by the Nazi & includes Mick Jagger in drag (superb)
Well worth watching though not easy viewing at times. 10/10

I watched Eat Pray Love last night. I've heard alot of people complain about this movie, but honestly i didn't think it was that bad. It wasn't amazing.... But still i dont think it was bad. It was just like the book in a lot off ways. Maybe didn't have the same depth as the book, but it stayed pretty close to the storyline, i thought. CLOSE. But not exact. It was extremely long. I keep wondering if maybe that's what everyone was complaining about? I dont know...
I would give it 6/10.

I love James Franco movies. I can't help it. I'm too protective of them.

In the cinema, Inception. The ending was a donkey, but I liked it. An excellent film. Four stars.

Haha well thanks for defending my cousin Tweedle Dum!

I saw Megamind yesterday, I liked it, but after the initial fight thing it slowed down and I got pretty bored. So the humor and action wasn't consistent... But once the girl found out a key thing things started to pick up again and it was quite enjoyable. 7/10. Soo glad it wasn't 3D...

And yes haha, Cap Ou Pas Cap was a great movie.

I saw Megamind too. Apart from a few sequences that were funny, I find it on the blah side. I love cartoons, but not this one.

I watched Raging Bull with my husband. I felt like there was some deeper meaning that I just wasn't getting.

I went to the Harry Potter midnight showing.
Though I haven't read the books nor am I really a big Potter fan to begin with... It was alright, decent action, and definitely better than the preceding movies. The effects and visuals that they added just made it all the more worth it.
I do think it sucks to have to wait for July to see the 2nd half though.

My sympathy, I know exactly how you feel

Watched Extraordinary Measures ... I like movies based on a true story & the amazing achievements of ordinary people driven by love & a refusal to be defeated. Harrison Ford is superb as the eccentric scientist and the children as always steal the show. 8/10

Saw Skyline yesterday in Regal Times Square cinema and i rate it 4 out of 10, an excellent idea (aliens hold major city hostage-not original i know but still!) ruined beyond repair by woeful acting, the main characters look like they would rather be anywhere else but in this movie, some very poor dialogue as well, they care more about the affairs of their friends than the fact that aliens are sucking people from the street into a spaceship

Very good effects though.
