The Crucible
9/10
I had to watch this movie in English this week, and I must say I really enjoyed it. The acting was very good and the storyline was extremely engrossing. It really does give you good insight into the Salem witch trials and just how out of hand and horrifiying that event was.

Last film I saw was The Aviator. I should watch it again before I make a proper judgement, but my reaction was lukewarm.
Martin Scorsese is easily my favourite director, and his style was a little watered down in this movie, but the direction was still great nonetheless. Leo Di Caprio was great in it, as was Alec Baldwin. The effects were good too, and all the settings etc were all fantastic, it was very pleasing on the eye.
The one thing that was missing though was the story. For all the technical brilliance of the movie, I just didn't care much for the characters, and their plight (primarily Di Carprio's, obviously). Plus, when films are long, they need to deserve it, they need to be something special if they approach 3 hours.
Overall, I'd say 7.5/10, a lot of good, mixed in with a fair bit of bad.

Boy in The striped Pyjamas
It was a good film, although not one I would actually pay to go see at the pictures, I can see why people would enjoy it, but I didn't think it was neither great or shit. It was a slow starter about a German boy who moves near a concentration camp because his dad got promoted (and is in charge of said camp) and he befriended a little jewish lad in the camp. It was disturbing in only what got said and what you knew was happening rather than what it showed.
Anyway...unexpected ending was unexpected, just a shame it took so long to bloody start. I expect I would enjoy the book it was based off 10x more. Some parts were really good, just the parts that werent....well, werent >_>
Il give it a.....7/10 I think

I saw a double feature of Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Speed Racer
Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Was utterly shit, it seemed far to rushed and I didn't like the whole computer generated thing either. All in all an incredibly shit movie which puts the rest of the series to shame.
3/10
Speed Racer
The special effects were unbelievable it was a crazy movie and best of all it didn't take itself seriously (any seriousness would have destroyed the movie). I actually really enjoyed this movie a lot and would recommend this movie to anyone (particularly if they are under the influence of an illicit substance  )
8/10

Just saw Eagle Eye as well. It was a decent action flick, but I believe it could've been much better. It reminded me far to much of Metal Gear Solid. The Patriots aspect of that game at least.

Appaloosa.
6/10
It makes 310 to Yuma look like a great movie (it was good, not great). They relied far too much on corny humor, they went back far too much on how Virgil Cole (Ed Harris) was practically literally stunted, and they practically shied away on drama.
