We have a gig review why not a Movie review topic.

Give the movie a 5 Star marking. 5 been best and 0 or 1 been crap


Die Hard 4.0  I give it **** out of 5

Went to see it last night and I thought it was really good. If you are a Die Hard or action film fan you will enjoy it. It action and action all the way through it.
Basically the story line is a gang of high tech hackers hack into the USA computer networks and close down everything from Traffic light system to Wall street. Is this the start of Cyber Terrorism
The question will there be another Die Hard ??? Does John McClean live or Die ???

There is a scene in it which I think Biker Pat would appreciate near the begining and the end credits

Pete,

I saw DIe Hard too and I really enjoyed it, I would give it ****and a half, thought the ending was predictably and corny.

Deffo worth a look though.

Harry Potter The Order of the Phoenix

If you are a Harry Potter fan and read the books and watch all the other movies.. Well this one doesn't disappoint.. Its darker than the others. My only complaint there wasn't enough of Helena Bonham Carter in it...

Helen McCrory was originally cast as Bellatrix Lestrange, but due to pregnancy she had to be replaced by Helena Bonham Carter

Helen Mc Crory had a small part in " Charlotte Gray "..

the SOE spy who was nabbed when Charlotte passed her a parcel under the table in a French Cafe..

she was supposed to have a big part in the newest HPotter moveie but had to back down due to being pregers...

Her other half is that DISH of an actor Damian Lewis who played Major Dick Winters in "Band of Brothers" and also starred as Soames in a remake of "The Forsyth Saga"...

He is an absolute BEAUT....

Transformers Movie 4/5

Went to see it in Galway. Looking forward to it but I didn't think it was going to as good as it was. The effects were excellent the story was well the usual bad guys fighting the good guys. The action and camera footage was good. If you have any sons or nephews grab and bring them to it it well worth seeing has action a bit of comedy, boys fancies girls and special effects. Tranformers transfoms well from Cartoon to Live action movie.

Its in my Top 3 Summer movies... Oh I only went to see three summer movies Harry Potter and Die Hard and Transformers...

Next one will be The Simpsons

Watched "Fracture" last night! I certainly would recommend it.

Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling

Went to see "knocked Up" yesterday evening.

A bit of a chick flick but men will have a laugh too. About a girl who goes out one night to celebrate her promotion, gets trolleyed and ends up with a guy. He doesn't use a condom at the last minute and bobs your uncle...

Its a good story about their relationship as a result etc, humourous and sad in places.

And one seriously graphic scene when she is giving birth, I even had to look away....

Worth a look for the girls and the not too squimish for the birth scene.

Just watched Tarantinos latest flick Death Proof. Well what can I say apart from its typical Tarantino, ott ending and alot of dialogue. Still enjoyed it though as Im a fan of his movies.

Watched Pathfinder last night on DVD(one of the DVD I made a backup copy of at the weekend )
Its very good about I presume Indians and the Vikings landing and slaughtering them.. It is well worth a look especially if you like blood and battles and the surviving against the odds type of movie
