Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985)

Shockingly poor, and all I can see now is Hot Shots Part Deux. A dire sequel like Rocky III. 2/5

First Blood (1982)

Even now I can see what all the fuss was about. I saw this on beta max in the 80s, loved it then, love it now. Class. 4/5

Iron Man 3 (2013)

Weak plot, poor storyline and awful direction however the usual cast carry it through.  Just watch it for what it is.  More of the winning Iron Man formula, just with more suits, more explosions and bizarre exploding bad guys including Mike from Neighbours. 3/5

Star Trek Into the Darkness (2013)

Not as good as the first, and more of the same but what the heck, it was a good watch.  Big effects, good lead characters.  4/5

Pain & Gain (2013)

Not what I expected but entertaining for the simple fact it's a true story and an unbelievable one at that. Having read the true story on Wikipedia after watching I realise the film is better than I first thought. 4/5

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone (2013)

Heard good things about this, and it felt in parts like a Farelli/Cohen type affair mixed with Dodgeball and Blades of Glory.  Jim Carey was awesome, but unfortunately his character was not used enough.  Average, but not magic. 3/5

The Conjuring (2013)

Fans of this type of camcorder horror making will lap it. It screams of Amityville and many other classics but it does have some scary moments.3/5
