While there may be a few very convenient plot developments in this Di Vinci Code follow-up, overall it is more thrilling and coherant with its single geographical location. Hanks as lead and Mcgregor in support stand out but there is only one thin female role. Thoroughly enjoyable anyway. (48 words)
| 0 Comment(s) | This star studded comedy revolves around a bunch of egotistical actors who end up accidently in a Vietnam drug lord controlled jungle. Stiller's wannabe hero and Downey Junior's method actor work well in tandem but the stand out performance is Tom Cruise as a dancing movie mogul. (47 words)

| 0 Comment(s) | Re-watched this on tv. It starts promisingly as quite an epic but then rapidly deteriorates into odly timed 'adventure' with a bland script and zero chemistry between leads Knightly and Owen. The knights are quite cute, Ray Winston surprisingly stands out. So disappointing. (43 words)
| 0 Comment(s) | Will Smith is excellent in this movie about a man, Hancock, with super-human powers who losesw his public support and is an alcoholic. A small-time PR man aims to get him on the straight and narrow and then Hancock discovers 'another of his kind'. Good but Story-line didn't run together. (50 words)
| 0 Comment(s) | This Cohen brothers all-star caper includes Clooney, Pitt and Malkovitch among it's cast and, whilst full of quality, didn't quite live up to my expectations in the same way that, for example, the Cohen brother's Big Lebowski did. A dark comedy that's worth a watch but not Cohen-tastic! (48 words)
| 0 Comment(s) | It's not often that the film outdoes the book but this adaptation provided more developed characters and a clearer storyline than the novel on which it is based. Kate Winslet is excellent, as are the main supports. I only wish I had a better idea of its historical accuracy. (49 words)
