This weekend I watched:

Super 8 - Really liked it, although it was pretty cliched and had a gay ending
Horrible Bosses - Not great, but entertaining. Kinda loses the plot halfway through.

Started watching Game of Thrones, but found it boring 2.5 episodes in and gave up.

Matt Dillon is great as the lead as a junkie, although I thought all the actors looked a little clean and keeping it together to portray junkies too well, except for Max Perlich who does the tweaky speed freak thing quite well.
i always thought matt looked too clean lol - but still did a good unhinged take
love it :retzielikes:

No, no, you must persist.

I fell asleep in the first episode the first time I watched it. I also fell alseep the second time I watched it.

BUT I persisted (mainly due to coercion from friends) and eventually was massively addicted.

I thought it was okay, but this being billed as a prequel was very lame. It's essentially the same movie. Better than I expected though, but nothing will ever touch the 80's version.

watchre dfthe film with keira and colin in it last nmighgt:

london boulevard

A sexy, stylish gangster thriller bristling with wit and brutal intrigue

:lol:

boring
try hard
disjointed
keira - playing a vertical corpse - looking good doe - nice fringe - pity about the acting biut
colin - playing his eyebrows

only good thing was keiras keeper - the stoner dude with bad attitude

in all

OK FILM
6/10
watch in bed - dont mind if you nod off - n othing to miss

This is inaccurate. Cliff Martinez wrote the orginal score.

Bad info from my boss. I'm blaming him. Soundtrack is just as epic as anything Badalamenti has done IMO.
