*SPOILERS*
1. You didn't realise she was Tali until the end of the film? Thought it was pretty obvious by the start of the film (the scar Batman sees on Miranda's back). Didn't really see it as a big twist myself. The whole film was set up for it and was telling you along the way, just not in the dialogue.
2. People are allowed to criticise this film because it is not perfect. Not for everyone, anyway.

Nope I clocked onto it early but anyway the other guy said it was a deus-ex machina and I didn't quite see how it was.

The Hunger Games
Got this last night and it was slightly better than I thought it would be. Jennifer Lawrence is pretty amazing, yet there is something slightly too detached about her performance. There's lots of flashbacks to tell you about her life, but in the end they kind of don't need to be there. It took too long to actually get them into the games, and then you see everything from Katniss point of view. So, cue echoey slow motion as her brain catches up with what's actually happening. This technique is used a little too much as it happens every time there's something she needs to do. I never quite believe she is in love with the Bakers kid, he's just not a strong enough character to be able to match her, and he looks shifty.
I would have swapped the Hemsworth Guy she really loves with this guy, and cast someone else better as the Bakers Son.
Good cast though, Woody H as the pissed up former winner, Stanley Tucci and Lenny Kravitz doing their bits.
On the whole, the film could have done with just a little more Games, and less in the lead in time. I wanted to get to know the 24 competitors more, see more of the depravity enforced on the kids psychologically, and have at least one of them make a decision that they had to to save their own lives. There are some great scenes in here though, the Hornets nest for one.
The very end of the film is pretty bad though, it's like one of those ads at the end of a TV show for whats on next week. Next week! On Hunger Games!...Donald Sutherland get pissed off!
7 out of 10. Good but could have been great.
Battleship
Comes across as a complete no brainer. I mean how can you make this game into a film before 'Operation' is anyone's guess. Guess Who made by Christopher Nolan would be an Epic Blockbuster. Taylor Kitsch looks to have continued his run of stinkers in 2012. Coming from nowhere and having two Studio Destroying Films released in the same year is frightening. I make it a 470 million outlay on two films for a return of 150 million. Someone just lost over 300 million on this guy. A Bargepole would even think twice before touching him again.
But I digress. Battleship, is a very large advertisement for, you guessed it, the Navy. I wanted to join after watching this. And who's the girl with the sensational Juggs? She looks awesome in the Bar in the beginning and then the next day you get to see her close up. And you wish you still had beer goggles on. The British Media darling Rhianna is in it as a bad ass Navy Ho. She can do everything except act, and manages to get a song in there...I think it was 'Um-ber-ella' as they're fanging around in the boat. Okay, I won't bore you with the Plot, but lets just say Aliens from another Planet; awoken to the fact Earth is just fannying around throwing messages out into the Universe Willy Nilly. Cue Unfullfilled 26 year old waster and the Navy bred older brother. Cue the Foxy Charlize Theron a like with some big old bouncy titties, the angry ex marine with a hard on for 'giving up' and robot legs coz they got blown off, and cue the extra core group of buddies who can survive being blown up several times and who you form way more of a filmic bond than you do with anything on the Prometheus; give Peter Berg (the great white hope - which was great , Hancock - which wasn't so great) 200 million $$ to play with and tell him you have to defeat the Aliens using a strategy you could play on Battleship, and, you have, Battleship the Movie.
4 out of ten bouncy titties.

Nope, well and truly gaffer taped to the tops she wears.
No sex scenes / groping / cold hard wet nipple action.
Disappointing.
Well, I'll never be seeing that film then.

Some serious nipple action would have put another $100 million on the grosses. No idea these Producers.
I watch this in the Cinema, it was nice seeing stiffler not play stiffler.
Wanderlust
Im not a big fan of Paul Rudd before watching this film but i enjoyed him in this, this is quite funny, not hangover or Inbetweeners funny, but quite witty funny with some great comedy moments.
Plenty of tits willys and bums in this!
Melancholia
During this film, there was parts where i was thinking...what am i watching. if you stick with it. you'll kind of understand. good film about the end of the world.

Odd movie, premise wouldnt have got off the ground if Mr.FamilyGuy didnt have pull with the studio. In parts it is funny, and the cameos from the other voice artists as well as other Hollywood stars is kind of cool. Some of the in-jokes work, some of them require a phd in Macfarlane's other works. Bad ending, some great weed names, Flash, and a huge debt to Kevin Smith and his films.
5.5/10
The Grey
Neeson in grim movie man on edge casting. Who'd have bet that. A bit like 'Alive' but without the none stop belly-laughs. Surprising as I didn't know much about it so had no idea what to expect besides wolves and Neeson. Claustrophobic and sad and an ending you probably wont see coming.

Being remade isnt it? (Properly not all the follow ups, an actual re imagining of the Brandon Lee original) Classic styling, from comic, Goth resplendent mid 90's classic.
