Superb film, butlers character did win as he turned fox to his way of thinking. It was similar to the film Seven in my opinion.

Some great films in there US but I have to say.....Avatar......

Absolutely appalling. Self-indulgent predictable guff. ONce you got past the 'goodness these special effects are impressive' you suddenly realised that there was the barest thread of a story line, a non-existent plot and an hour of unecessary crud in the middle.

As others say - each to their own.

I saw this a while ago, it was okay but apart from being far fetched it was rather predictable. Decent entertainment though.

Well you see I also like Titanic. Cameron is a very good director.

As he said " I don't do deals with murderers " he said " at last " and then fried. I thought it was excellent.

I enjoyed Law Abiding Citizen. I wouldn't say it was the best ever, but it certainly wasn't particularly shit. Taken was ok, but I recall that getting decent reviews anyway.

Vantage point I'd have to disagree with you. The audience when I went to see it actually started to laugh the fourth and fifth time the story reset. It was a good, idea, but was too repetitive without enough differences from each vantage point to retain interest.

The last 2 minutes was not as good as the previous 95 agreed but overall it was very good. I tend to find immediately after a film my rating is higher and downgrades over the weeks after so the 8.3 could end up at 7.6 or something.

Also I have amended my list to replace Avatar with Watchmen on reflection.
