Captain America

SF: Right blend of cheesy humour, action and comic book plot. Loved it do much I saw it twice. 9/10

50 Eggs: Loved some of it but thought other bits were a missed opportunity that could have been so much better. Still one of the better Marvel films. 8/10.

DonkeyB: Very Rocketeery, which is 1) not surprising, 2) not a bad thing. Trailer for the next one made me want to cry it looks so bad. 7/10

Overall - 8/10

Beginners

SF: Urgh. I wanted to like this film. I tried and there were bits I was genuinely taken with but over all I left the cinema going "huh". Whoever did the artwork for Ewan Mcgregor's Character was fantastic. 4/10

50 Eggs: n/a

DonkeyB: Very me, quite funny and charming. 6.5/10

Overall - 5.25/10

Horrible Bosses

SF: Mildly entertaining. Not as funny as it should of been but certainly has a few surprises that come out of nowhere as the film is soo mediocre. Unlike Donkey I thought Jennifer was rather hot in this. 5/10

50 Eggs: Made me laugh out loud which is quite unusual in the cinema. A stellar, virtuoso performance from Jennifer Aniston as the nimphomaniac dentist. 8/10

DonkeyB: Disappointing, Aniston not convincing as sex crazed, surprisingly unsexy in the lingerie too. Look out for my series of reviews Blue Donkey watches Jennifer Aniston, in which I review every Jennifer Aniston film (properly not like this one line balony). 5/10

Overall - 6/10

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

Sequel to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1

SF: I have an issue with this, is this the second half or should it be a seperate movie? It was all End and ahhh drama. I was just a bit unsatified. Still the action was good. A case of does what it says on the tin but not my favourite HP movie. 6/10

50 Eggs: This is much more like it. Pacey, action packed - everything Part 1 wasn't. As good an ending as could reasonably be hoped for and a fitting finale to the series. 8/10

DonkeyB: n/a

Overall: 7/10

Larry Crowne

SF: Light hearted and sweet. A fairly non-offensive movie, the exact sort of thing you'd expect from Tom hanks and Julia Roberts. Mildly amusing but nothing special. 5.5/10

50Eggs: n/a

DonkeyB: Totally inoffensive nothing of a film. Hanks in his charming screen presence late career norm. Just a touch pointless. 4.5/10

Overall: 5/10

Green Lantern

SF: I always thought Green Lantern was a decent super hero but Hal Jordon really had no imagination. Alas this seems to have spread to the script writers too. Bored to tears, I almost didn't make it to the end. I wanted to like this film but the characters are one dimensional and the plot (though fine in the comic) has been reduced to nonsense. Also don't like the attempt to emulate Richard Donner's opening to Superman. The effects are fine but I'm struggling to find any redeeming features. 3/10

50 Eggs: Blah blah Me'h. I don't understand how it possible to make a film about a man who can do anything he imagines and yet still make it boring. Plot holes galore too. Would be a lower mark if it weren't for a few good scenes. 5/10

DonkeyB: n/a

Overall - 4/10

Tree of Life

SF: I walked out after 90 mins. All I have to say - dinosaurs. 1/10
(If you are wondering what the one is for - cinematography was excellent, shame about everything else)

50 Eggs: More like Tree of Boring. Lifted slightly by some good performances from the kids. 3/10

DonkeyB: Dinosaurs? Really? I liked the family bits (liked is the wrong word, but I'm too lazy to think of the right one), but God it was pretentious, and that's me speaking. 3/10

Overall - 2.3/10

X-men: First Class

SF: Why! The timeline is soo messed up. I tried to tell myself it's a parallel world but the more I think of it the more I loathe it. 4/10

50 Eggs: Awesome. Good story, good performances and brilliant set pieces. Time lines are always messed up in comics (ahem) so that didn't bother me in the slightest. 9/10

DonkeyB: January Jones is NOT sexy in this film. That is kind of a problem plotwise. Don't even get me started on the whole Cuban missile crisis thing. Why is Captain America ok to mess with history and this isn't? Oh, yeah sorry short reviews. I was bored the arse off as well. 3/10

Overall - 5.3/10

Senna

SF: This came out of nowhere for me, I'm not an F1 fan, all I knew was Senna's name but this was nothing short of excellence in film making. Was really glad I'd seen it so 8/10

50 Eggs: Best documentary I've ever seen in the cinema. Its the only one too, but that doesnt take away from its goodness. 8/10

DonkeyB: Loved this, unfortunately my experience ruined by the berk behind. I'm a big F1 fan and remember the day Senna died really quite vividly for something that happened when I was so young. Very very powerful. 9/10

Overall - 8.3/10

Attack the block

SF: Different approach to Sci-fi - well executed, right blend of humour and tension. Keeps you guessing and entertained. 7/10

50 Eggs: Cheap British Sci-fi, but managing to make you root for utter scumbag youth says something about the strength of the script and actors. 7/10

DonkeyB: Exactly what a British B movie should be, exactly. 7/10

Overall - 7/10
