I'm not a movie-goer, just a movie-watcher. The last movie I saw in a theater was "Batman: The Dark Knight". I only went along b/c friends from college were going, I wasn't intereted in the movie.
Two years later, I may be venturing back into the theater to see "Inception". How odd a co-inky-dink is that? (Same director).

"Shrek, happy ever after" .. Enjoyed it, good fun though I felt the animation was no near as good as in previous films and the script lacked a certain "je ne sais quoi"... Good but not great. However as usual Puss in Boots and Donkey stole the show.... Both should have their own show... Like the Madagascar penguins I feel their characters in a way outshine the main protagonists !

Looking forward to "The concert", "White Material" and " Toy Story 3" hopefully in the next week or so.

Clash of the Titans in 3D... (yeah I know, it's been a while)

I usually get DVD's and watch them at home.

Love-love-love Donkey! He never fails to crack me up.

Saw it today...enjoyed it. Michael Douglas' character sure was a sleaze, wasn't he?

Eclipse - unsurprisingly awful. Is it just me or does the make-up get worse with every movie?

"The Illusionist" ( NOT the film with Edward Norton) a wonderful, ravishing, poignant animated film by the director of "Belleville rendez-vous". An absolute joy of a film, the whole film is a piece of art.

Virtually no dialogue at all but the wonderful draftsmanship is superb enough to speak for itself. The script was written by Jacques Tati for his daughter and never published and has been beautifully realised as a film by Sylvain Chomet.

Anyone who has been to Edinburgh and Scotland will revel in the utterly magical rendition of this fabulous city and country. A little Gem of a film and not to be missed by anyone who loves old fashioned charm, character . Superb soundtrack too. A much welcome relief from a lot of other cinematic offerings at the moment.
