oh god sandler got on my nerves in this film, had some good laughs from the supporting cast, but they are the ones who saved this film!
Number 159. The Italian Job

not a bad remake, thankfully since they only take the general gist of the original and sell the film by association its not ruining anything from the original and merely making a good crime caper film instead!
and edward norton is great as the panto style villain!
Number 160. Species 3

this is a series that should have stopped at one film, quite how it made it this far is beyond me, and they even made a fourth one after this piece of garbage!

Number 153. The Waterboy

one of adam sandlers better efforts, even if it is a one trick pony of sandler getting angry and hitting people.
underneath it, as always its a feelgood movie of the runt or idiot who overcomes being an outcast to get the girl and save the fuckin day as he does in all his earlier films.
same old same old, but what annoys me about his early films is that essentially he plays the same thick fuckin idiot of a character, and that character is ultimately a bit of a tool.
just takes some of the enjoyment out of the films for me.
Number 154. Dumb and Dumber
Dumb & Dumber Pictures, Images and Photos

why the fuck i watched this film for a second time is beyond me.

good film, nowhere near as good as the first film but still has some damn good laughs within its short but direct run time.

Number 150. Jay and Silent Bob strike back

brilliant, childish, silly, sexist and very very very very funny.

another disney princess film!! i feel i may have watched more of these this year than throughout my entire life upto this point.

a classic, i love this film, i love the script and how its just soooo fast paced.
and fantastically funny.
one of my fave kevin smith films

Number 147. Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock Holmes 2009 Pictures, Images and Photos
horrendously over the top, and quite enjoyable. though quite why they had holmes and watson bickering like children all the way through was beyond me, and slightly took the edge off it, taking it from a good film into the average with a lot of changes that needed to be made to it pile!
whether that will happen for the inevitable sequel we shall have to wait and see.
