All it's best moments are delivered in the first 15 minutes. The in jokes for "us gamers" are well received but then the whole thing falls flat and boring. 3/5

Life of Pi (2012)
OK it's very "arty" and it's up its own arse but...it's also quality. What starts out quite boring becomes a hybrid of Forest Gump and Cataway and its quite spectacular. Very different. I liked it.4/5

Seven Psychopaths (2012)
Should be funnier than it actually is. It borrows heavily from old school Tarantino storytelling and although it's a good watch it's neither here nor there. Woody Harrelson is in it though.3/5

Source Code (2011)
Great concept even if it does slightly borrow some Final Destination ideas in terms of déjà vous replays. Fun, intriguing and entertaining and a sneaky little twist 4/5

Pumping Iron (1977)
One of those things you can't stop watching. Say what you want about Arnies acting but his bodybuilding was the best in the world. And he owns the screen and dominates with his personality. I love this documentary. Bodybuilding is a sport in its own right. 70s bodybuilding kicked ass. 4/5

Argo (2012)
Lives up to the hype. It's slow to begin with and although the pace remains constant it cleverly unleashes a layer of intensity not experienced for years. The last half of the film has you on the edge of your seat. It's awesome and Ben Affleck looks like Dave Grohl from The Foo Fighters which makes it even better.5/5

Redline (2009)
Post-apocalyptic pod/car/ship racing Anime. Completely bizarre but rather brilliant. Great story, cool characters and intense racing. 4/5
