Tonight I went to the cinema, but not to see The Aviator as planned – I’m not complaining! Instead I went to watch Assault on Precinct 13 starring Laurence Fishburne (from The Matrix), Ja Rule (the gangsta rapper) and numerous other actors.
I thought it was a good action film, traditional of one you may have seen in the late 80’s/early 90’s (Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, etc). It made a change as it has been a good few years since a film in this genre has had a major released.
There was a lot of action and plenty of killings (to keep those lads in The League of Gentlemen happy). The plot was crap and very predictable but you come to expect this from these action movies and don’t really pay for the story line.
“It’s got more kill-INGS than Seven, but less kill-INGS than Titanic!”
All in all a good film, glad I went to see it, one I would recommend.

I loved this movie as a kid. It was rude, funny, childish and very silly. Would I still enjoy it, now that I am an (apparently) mature...

Roman has a new favourite film!
This morning, he sat in this run, silently watching a movie I put on. He was enthralled! The title of the film... The Velveteen Rabbit!
I don't know if it'll beat his all time favourite - Keeping Up Appearances - but as far as movies go, he loves this one.
I have already found something...

I can't wait to see this.
Claire and I will definitely be making a trip to the cinema for this one. I wonder if we'll be allowed to bring Roman...
