“Yes Man” could not have made too much of an impression on me - I can hardly remember it! Oh, that’s right - Jim Carrey and Zooey Deschanel in a comedy of extremes…

Great actors (Ewan McGregor, Steve Buscemi, Michael Clarke Duncan) / actress (Scarlett Johansson), great action, great sci-fi. I particularly like the vision of 2019, the layering of future technology over our current technology. “The Island” is not perfect, but a lot of fun - critics be damned!

From memory we picked this up cheaply from HMV and Lou couldn’t believe I hadn’t seen it before. On watching, I think I had seen the start before - but I certainly don’t remember anything after that. Mystery Men is fun, if a bit cheesy and painful at times.
Mystery Men came up whilst discussing Watchmen, which I have still not seen yet.

Tilt: +1 Fantasy Adventure
First watched: 6th April 2009 (DVD, owned)
Apparently I thought Prince Caspian was pretty good when I watched it back in April. Not very memorable though it seems - or my memory isn’t what it used to be 
An 8 usually means a mixture of fun, slick and consistent for me - and being fantasy adventure doesn’t hurt either.
I am going to have to start writing more notes than just the date and rating after I have watched - or better yet - get back up to date so it doesn’t matter.

Tilt: +1 Harry Potter
Last Watched: 21st February 2009 (DVD, owned)
I have left “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” too long to write up to remember any exact thoughts - good thing I jot down the rating and date at the time! I do enjoy the Harry Potter films - and that is half the problem - remembering details of each individually! Oh well, I am sure I will get a second chance in the not too distant future…

I can happily watch Groundhog Day over and over again - hence the 10 rating! Bill Murray at his best. A romantic comedy of sorts - but also a great exploration of the human experience when consequences don’t matter. This is what “Bruce Almighty” could have been for me. What would you do if you were stuck reliving the same day forever without consequence?

I absolutely loved Bolt! When I finally get around to rewatching this, I will probably bump this up to a 10. The sad thing is, as I am quite behind on my movie watching updates, I can’t remember exactly why I enjoyed it so much. The animation was fine, the characters great (especially Rhino - be-awesome!) - overall just a lot of fun.

I had some trepedition about watching Get Smart, not wanting to spoil my childhood memories, but actually it was a lot of fun without too many cringe-worthy moments to bring it down. I thought the modernisation and tributes to the original series were done well. My memory (admittantly patchy) of Maxwell Smart was not quite the same - I remember him more as inept than the capable but naive and lacking field experience version portrayed in the film, but it worked and I enjoyed it. Oh, and of course, Anne Hathaway as Agent 99.

The Prophecy is one of Lou’s. Viggo is interesting as Lucifer - before The Lord of the Rings. Walken is Walken. Which came first? This or Constantine with the idea of Gabriel becoming jealous of the exalted place of mankind?
