Dredd - very enjoyable, a proper comic book adaptation for a change

I really like Dredd - thought they did much better than the last attempt to being Dredd to the big screen. Urban does Dredd effortlessly, its a shame he doesn't get many leading roles. Plus seeing Olivia Thirlby doing something quite different for her was also good.

Did anyone go and see moonrise kingdom?

I missed it at the cinema, waiting patiently for it to come out on DVD. Worth the wait?

I missed it in the cinema to, DVD is out 1st October so not long to wait.

Yes 'The Master' does look good. Going to have the scientologists up in arms.

^^ I said I'd never watch another jjjjwwwwaaakkkiiiimmmeee pheonix film after 'im still here'... but I might just have to, that looks well good.

Hahaha 'I'm Still Here' was meant to be a big hoax. The amount of trouble they went through to pull it off is amazing. Pure genius.

The other film I watched last week was 'Premium Rush' - which amazingly is way better than I expected. Firstly they got all the terminology right, and didn't make anything up. I think JGL was actually riding fixed! The skids were impressive, the effect gimmick with the routes at junctions I thought was a nice touch. (I wish I could do that.) Michael Shannon was great too. Plot wise not amazing, but works quite well. Set in near realtime, but with flashbacks.
