"To Kill a Mockingbird" with Gregory Peck. Very powerful and true to the book.

I, Frankenstein
Obviously my expectations weren't high but what a pointless, overladen with CGI pile of keek! I'm surprised they used actors at all. I hate films that try to tell the story with special effects.

Legend starring Tom Hardy thoroughly enioyed it, far better than those pair of fanny Boys the Kemp Brothers who would be hard pushed to scare my feeble Granny.

Mad Max - Fury Road.
Watched this last night, after the wife had been baying at me about it for a while. In the film, Charlize Theron plays Max, but unfortunately due to some sort of concussive injury thinks she's called Furiosa, while Tom Hardy has a bit part playing a character called Polly Fannypants.
7/10 on the camp-o-meter.

Sicario
A decent film with great acting, almost has the feel of a documentary. The three main characters really carry the film well but the story is good anyway. 7/10

I watched Margin Call a few days ago. Loved it! Took something i know nothing about (or call about) in the stock market, and made it about the characters themselves. Really interesting take on it.

If you like audio books the audio book of the Martian is really well done.

Friday night : Freaks of Nature, comedy horror, teen movie, this was done pretty well, they must have had a reasonable budget and made the most of it, good fun overall 6/10
Saturday night : Legend, Tom Hardy does a good job of showing how Character acting works, disappointed in the way the whole thing is constructed as a series of anecdotes and short scenes, I never felt engaged in a storyline.
7.5/10 purely given on Hardy's performances.

Solomon Kane http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0970452/
Another one of those films which when I saw it at the time, left me with a sense of meh! - but decided to re-visit.
It's ok, it sort of clunks a long and all the rain made me feel homesick for Accrington. Not really much of a recommendation I suppose, but Pete Postlethwaite was in it for a bit, so 6/10.

Crowd sourced feature film my boy dragged me to. With a bigger budget it would have been very good of its genre - as it was it was merely ok with some very nice plot ideas, but I wasn't really the target audience. A fun enough night out though.

I watched The Martian last night, thoroughly enjoyed it and have duly added it to my Amazon wish list.

Legend.
Stylish, cartoonish, and a bit silly. Thankfully it is far superior to the appalling 1990 Krays film.
Tom Hardy is always a compelling actor, but this is a veritable tour de force. Even heavyweights in the supporting cast (including personal faves Christoper Eccleston and David Thewlis) cannot compete or draw any attention away from Hardy's formidable performance as both Reggie and Ronnie.

Smoking Aces ... seen before, but largely forgotten the script. Much enjoyed.
