Chopper tells the intense story of Mark "Chopper" Read, a legendary criminal who wrote his autobiography while serving a jail sentence in prison. His book, "From the Inside", upon which the film is based, was a best-seller. |
In April 2012, Read announced that he had been diagnosed with liver cancer, and had been told he had about six weeks to live
Just got this from wikipedia page..

Why 7 for the avengers? Seeing Joss Whedon's direction and envisioning of the film come to life on the big screen is perfect. The script is amazingly detailed and laced with sharp wit a humor. The special effects are literally mind-blowing and the action scenes are both hard-hitting and beautifully choreographed. I'll give it an 8/10  |

After reading some reviews, I just came away from the film a bit disappointed. I would have given it a 5 was it not for Johansson's arse in the cat suit and the battle at the end.

Avengers was good, but the Thor / Loki / alien invaders thing was just a bit too sci-fi for me. The human frailties of Doc Oc, for example, make for a better connection with the "baddies". Magneto is a good baddy, for example, or Hannibal Lecter. Faceless alien hordes: not a good baddy. Even the silver surfer had some inner conflicts that made him interesting.
I saw "My Week with Marilyn". Very enjoyable and Michelle Williams is amazing as Marilyn. 8.2/10.

Forces Speciales 7/10 (French, English subs)
Pretty standard 'special forces rescue kidnapped journalist, goes a bit wrong, escape through hostile ground' fayre.
Let down by some pretty poor soldiering, looks like they didn't have an advisor in that area.
Again, kills a couple of hours on a boring Sunday.

Drive 9/10.
Really stylish, and a great performance by Ryan Gosling IMO. Loved the soundtrack too. |

Real Steel 6/10
Rocky with robots, combined with an estranged father/son rebonding sub plot.
Another good family film to pass a couple of hours if you're not looking for anything groundbreaking.

Promethious (or however you spell it)... 1/10
What a load of tosh. Expected better considering who was involved!

Damon Lindelof was involved. I never watched Lost but I heard similar things about that, so... |
