Exactly what it sounds like.

Title:	Avalanche Sharks
Director:	Scott Wheeler
Score:	3/6
Eighties:	They’re back!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no…..

I noticed they turned off the shaky cam every time they could afford an effect.  Nice trick.  They should have left it on the whole time.

Title:	Alien Uprising (aka UFO)
Director:	Dominic Burns
Score:	2/6
Peeve:	24:36 ISN’T A TIME!!1!!1!!!ONE!11!!!

Wow.  You think they don’t make good movies anymore, and then… Wow…

Title:	The Congress
Director:	Ari Folman
Score:	6/6
Mind:	Blown.

I don’t get it.  Something about a virus?  Isn’t this supposed to be a spy film?  Where’s Matt Damon?  I’ll give it an extra point just in case it’s my fault for not paying attention.

Title:	The Bourne Legacy
Director:	Tony Gilroy
Score:	3/6
Drones:	Not bad-arse.

Title:	Murder on the Orient Express
Director:	Sidney Lumet
Score:	2/6
Poirot type:	Clouseau type.

Another huge surprise.  Again I thought, Bryan Singer, Hollywood, huge effects movie…  Bound to reek.  But no!  It’s ok!  Am I getting film-numb?

Title:	Jack the Giant Slayer
Director:	Bryan Singer
Score:	3/6
Giants:	They’re bad-arse.

Not Ridley’s worst effort.  I was in a sail boat once.  For about two hours, in almost no wind.  A week later I was still fighting that rolling sensation.

Title:	White Squall
Director:	Ridley Scott
Score:	3/6
Sailing:	Really boring.

The third film from Wright and Pegg and largely the same ensemble cast.  A proper step up from their previous outings methinks.  More like this, please.

Title:	The World’s End
Director:	Edgar Wright
Score:	4/6
Final score:	Only eleven pints.

A look behind the scenes of your typical spelling bee competition.  Is that the right term?  Spelling bee competition?  Or is it just spelling bee?  Spelling be competition?

Title:	Bad Words
Director:	Jason Bateman
Score:	4/6
In a word:	Quirky.  But I totally believe it.

Du-duru-duuuu!

Title:	Fantastic Mr. Fox
Director:	Wes Anderson
Score:	13 on a scale from 100 to 1, 1 being the best.
Horror level:	Low
