Number 111. Ginger Snaps Unleashed
Number 112. Ginger Snaps Back:The Beginning
the second and third parts of the ginger snaps trilogy.
filmed back to back and now viewed back to back!
intersting variations on the story,the second proving to be the more interesting of the two films but with neither coming anywhere close to being as good as the original.

Number 108. Entrapment
the thomas crown affair with a zeta-jones twist!
but the star of the show isnt catherine and her catsuits but the mighty sean connery and his deft touch that brings wonderful life to the cliche ridden story and elevates it to a very easy and very entertaining watch.
Number 109. April Fools Day
classic 80`s slasher flick.
and one of the first to play about with the conventions of the genre, and easily one of the best.
Number 110. Ginger Snaps
brilliant, just brilliant.
a werwolf movie where just for once the beast isnt the main focus,but the girls who will eventually become the beasts are front and centre.
if it wasnt for the great performances of katherine isabelle and emily perkins this film would probably be dead in the water.

Number 105. Hot Rod
dear god this was terrible, one giggle in the opening 5 minutes when the main character crashes his bike into a van and thats about it.
then we get 90 minutes of him and his mates being twats and becoming very annoying.
Number 106. Death Racers
terrible, really just terrible in every way known to man.
rubbish acting,predictable over used already done plot and truly awful special FX
Number 107. Bad Biology
so a film about a woman who has 7 clits (that she knows of!) and started her periods at 5 and after having sex gives birth to half breed under formed children within 2 hrs, and a man who has to sedate his freakishly monstrously huge pehis to stop it form going on a shag rampage!
suffice to say this is low on taste and high on nudity and mentalism.
as such its quite quite excellent!
completely bonkers and off the wall from the very beginning, the only to watch this film is with a mountain of salt!

Number 101. Tangled
pretty terrible in all honesty, im all for disney films and am fully aware that they are meant for kids, but that being said they can usually be enjoyed by adults as well, but this just mis fired from the start for me, it had some good moments here and there with its mangled re-working of the repunzal story, but they laughs were few and far between.
Number 102. Baby Mama
yet again somehow tina fey manages to entertain again!
simple and easy to watch comedy seems to be her bag, and her along with steve carell keep on making great fun movies
Number 103. The Money Pit
classic 80`s slapstick, when tom hanks was still funny.
in the good old says before he developed into a proper actor. i cant deny it though he is a great actor i prefer his silly fun films like this from the 80`s. now i just cant wait to go and get BiG and the burbs!!
Number 104. Sister Act 2:Back in the Habit
passable trash, nothing brilliant but very easy to watch.

Number 100. National Treasure
good fun and easy watching!
i want to put 101 as dario argento`s sleepless but as my virgin+ box failed to record the ending im not gonna count it as watched. :(
its probably for the best anyway as i must admit i was lost and a little repulsed at his intesive and rather needless violence dorected towards his female characters

Number 88. The Princess Diaries
typical disney fluff, very predictable as always, and much like every other one they have made pretty much ever its very slick,very easy to watch and ashamed as i am to admit it very easy to enjoy the gentle little story as it rolls along with ease to a very obvious and happy conclusion.

Number 84. The Descent 2
oh dear,this was terrible.
there is very little to recommend about this film, which is really disappointing as i really enjoyed the first film,but this has nothing on it,you dont care for the characters and all the tension is completely absent as you know what they are going up against.
the clautrophobic element of the first film has almost entirely been dropped too!
awful,just awful.

blinding film,if a little bleak and depressing in a bronson/death wish style!
Number 81. The Mask
good old jim being very annoying! but its a childhood classic almost ruined by the playground quoting it to death, but after many years without watching it some of its charm still remains!

Number 78. The Human Centipede
a very bland film, which in all honesty loses any of its shock value once you get your head around the general premise.
the delivery of what could have proved to be very interesting is handled poorly and as such the resulting film is dull.
Number 79. The Naked Gun 2 1/2:The Smell of Fear
bona fide classic spoof featuring the master actor of the genre and handled by the master writer/directing team of Zucker/Zucker/Abrahms!
quite how they manage to cram more jokes in the opening half hour of this film than most other comedies fit into an entire film is beyond me.
