Movies - Recommended (Nov/08/2009 )
I watched this weekend:
"Robin Hood" ( the new one), not as bad as I expected it. The movie is not bad, but the third act is really bad 2/5 stars...
"Centurion" , not a good one, I hate when they add CGI blood..1.5/5 stars
"Batman, Gotham Knight", It is an animated movies, with different short films, in the same way that Animatrix. Was nice. 3/5 stars

It is quite boring... but I gave it up after 1 hour I think, so maybe the end is awesome... and why that movie?
hmmm, not watching then. a friend wanted to watch 'silence of the lambs' . . but I already watched it . . . so looking for something that compares to 'silence of the lambs'.
if boring then .. . not watching

Conference plane movies
1. Robin Hood- 3/5 It seems to be have been not treated kindly, but I really enjoyed it. The setting was much more realistic and the accents at least more fitting than many other versions. The last half had some crappy scenes in it, but I enjoyed it overall.
2. Green Zone- 3/5 Also pretty good, in a slightly we kind of knew this already type of way. But again enjoyable if not a happy movie. Its zips along.
3. Karate Kid- 4/5 Why its not called Kung fu kid is beyond me (its Best kid in Japan which is just as bad). Still good film, Jackie Chan showing is good acting skills here- I got quite emotional at some scenes, though that could have been the lack of sleep on a 12 hour overnight flight getting to me. Recommended.
4. and 5. Prince of Persia and Trick- I enjoyed even more second time around- great film for watching on long plane journeys.
Trick is a Japanese movie- subtitled on the plane, and was kind of enjoyable, about a sceptic scientist,a failed magician and a weird village. I wished I could have seen the end but we were landing.
