Inception - view
Went to see inception at an imax last night,my first time and i was very impressed.
The trailer for tron visually looks amazing and actually is tempting me to go against all that i feel towards remakes or sequels of old classics(just look at star wars).
Anyway back on to inception by Christopher Nolan, its got a truely amazing cast, ellen page,auld lio and michael caine who plays a rather small support roll but he plays it something serious *spoiler alert* at the end i think with his classical English charm and near perfect grandad figure he really leads you with lio into really not being sure.
I enjoyed the film, its not a new plot, man has dark troubled past needs to do one last job and then he can get back to his kids, so gets together a crack team of experts...blah blah youve seen this type of movie before but with a gravity defying hotel hallway fight to the death?
In the imax the gravity stuff is just like wow in 3d i am sure it would b even more spectacular.
Gona be brave gona say its the best film ive seen at cinema since the dark knight, but to be fair what have you in the between time? I didnt go see the new smurf film(avatar) and only thing that would come close would be micmacs by jean-pierre jeunet.
So im giving it 4.5*.

Juno - View
I finally surcumbed to watching this "hipster movie of the year" which is seen to be "perfectly clever and perfectly paced". Unfortunetly for me i thought it was poor to average. Kyle smith sums it up beautifully "as the world’s longest Belle and Sebastian or Ben Folds song.".
On the topic of songs i love this song at the moment especially after watching Juno. Papa Razzi & The Photogs with "Ellen Page, Don't Juno You Love Me?"
Oh the film gets 1*

A serious man - review
Film is a typical coen dark comedy revolving around larry gopnik.
It takes an interesting look at the jewish faith and has a great cast but steve bucsemi-less(strange for the coens)
What really caught my eye was jason solomons quote on the front "the coens' finest film ever". Really? I do not think so Jason. Its a decent film but better than fargo, the big lebowski and burn after reading(to name but a few)
Got me thinking about reviewers and if i should lisen to them?
The Sun gives it 5 stars, i doubt most sun readers can spell irony let alone grasp it in a coen brothers film.
Rant ended.
Il give it 3 stars,i need to watch it again.
