What is the last movie you saw? and rate it.

For an idea of the heights Doctor Who can reach, I highly recommend "Blink" from the third season. If you like low-budget B-movies, you might enjoy much of the original series (1963-1987) as well.

I just saw "Blink". It was pretty good. I'll never think of statues in the same way again. Score: 9/10

I watched Amour last night, it’s really good film but seemed too long. It was also tough to see the pain and suffering of Anne at some points. 7/10

What Maisie Knew: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1932767/ Score 10/10

This is the story of a pre-school child with dysfunctional parents mainly from the child's perspective. Onata Aprile did a great job as Maisie.

I loved Amour Snowqueen, although to be honest it's probably not going to be one that I would want to see again.

I would like to see Bling and What Maisie Knew. I like Sofia Coppola's movies a lot.

I watched Disconnect and it was better than I expected. It reveals the dark side of modern communication and internet. 7/10

I loved Amour Snowqueen, although to be honest it's probably not going to be one that I would want to see again.

It really is a good film but I found it a bit depressing, to be honest.

Watching Billie Piper as Rose Tyler made the time pass quickly. I liked the way she'd not pronounce clearly the "t" in many words such as "later". Or at least that's how I heard it. She would say something like "lay-er" and the "t" in "not" would seem to get de-emphasized or combined with the next word to the point of not being there and the "o" sound made long.

It's a form of glottal stop - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glottal_stop - and it's an identifying characteristic of Estuary English - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estuary_English - which is what you might call the 'street accent' where I grew up. Not many people would claim that it's a pretty accent, but its influence seems to be growing. Me, I flip to and fro between attenuated Estuary and BBC-style Received Pronunciation at will, and often within a single sentence.

Billy Piper's a West Country girl, which would suggest that that's not her native accent - though she seems to have lived around the capital since her teens, so she's had plenty of time to pick it up.

Just came from the movie theater with my boy, we saw Frozen a Disney movie about two princesses. I have a lot to say about Disney princesses and not all good but these two were pretty good. I liked how the ending was different from movies like this when I was a kid.

Watched "Taken 2" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1397280/?ref_=nv_sr_3

The saddest part is that I will never get back the hour and a half that I wasted watching this horrible excuse for a motion picture.

Hywel Bennett plays a freelance chauffeur whose connection with wealthy employers leads to
a romance with Haley Mills' American millionairess. After which, he has a house built by a
famous architect in a beautiful English landscape. The marriage is marred by a mysterious old
woman who tries to frighten them away and a feeling of malaise that has no apparent cause.
Some of which is explained towards the end of the film when the wife's body is discovered in a field and
the verdict is a heart attack. Unfortunately, there's no explanation for the old woman or the hideous
statuette of a cat that is brought into the house by a mutual acquaintance, so perhaps it's a case of poor editing.
A key scene at 2.37 in this compilation video, was missing from the film that I saw. 6/10

Perhaps because it sounded so unusual to me and looked so cute when Billy Piper said it, I like hearing Estuary English. I didn't know there was a name for it. I work with someone who grew up around Manchester. I hear the "cheers" and "mate", but he doesn't sound like Piper, of course, Manchester is north of London and I shouldn't expect him to.

Adapted from Agatha Christie's 1929 novel, this TV version takes us right back to the English aristocracy's last gasp when characters were called 'Pongo' and ''Bundle', and Bentley roadsters were thick on the ground. It wasn't all fun and games though because, when the cricket bats and hockey sticks had been stored away, there were serious things like mysterious societies, spies and secret formulae of national importance to be dealt with. That didn't mean that these too weren't a jolly jape or a spiffing wheeze to be enjoyed, so long as one was prepared to take the occasional risk that the unknown villain might be the least likely of one's fellow players. The important thing was that the bounder was eventually unearthed and true love blossomed in the knowledge that once again, England had been saved for those who knew best how to enjoy it. 7/10

Today, I have seen "The Hobbit.Desolation of the Smaug". It was much better that the first part but for me it wasn`t much to do with the book.

Don't know if it counts as a movie but I just saw Doctor Who Christmas special. I would have liked to see River Song in it but it was good. I will probably watch it again tonight when my son is back from spending the holidays with his dad. I expect lots of crying when he sees that bow-tie he loves so much fall.

probably the second best Christmas special they have done so 8/10

"The Trip" with Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon - very funny movie

I recently went to '47 Ronin'.

The special effects were above average, but the story felt rushed and thin. The Samurai were too melodramatic for me, and (sorry if this offends anyone) I have never enjoyed watching Keanu Reeves. He is like an Asian Nicholas Cage.

6/10
