Strange that I was thinking about this film on my way to the Hospital.
I must get it and I can watch it again when i'm flying to Tenerife. The time will fly

Gladiator set in Scotland,
One of the most violent and gory battle scene it has ever been my pleasure to watch,and a never ending edge of your seat suspense as six Roman soldiers try to get out of Scotland while being chased by the most vicious scottish men and women you have ever seen(Like Rangers fans) :lol:

OCH the noo.
enjoyed it, very bloody and some mad fight scenes 8)

More bodies than the Battle of the Somme, more explosions than World War 2.
Action Hero's in every corner and a roller coaster ride that is a must see if you like action films.
I give it 8 out of 10. The only fault i had with it was that 60% of the film took place at night which sometimes made it hard to follow.

Watched SALT tonight, the new Angelina hot-as-fuck Jolie film. Great spy thriller not dissimilar to the Bourne films. Felt like it should have been made 20 years ago with Harrison Ford... 7.5/10

Invictus

If your a diabetic and need a suagry fix, then just watch this film and your levels will be restored. Simple, clunky...and couldn't keep my eyes of Morgan Freeman's false teeth (not a good thing).

Sports films are just not that good. A generous 5/10.

I hate to say that's a pretty fair summary.

Watched Salt last night and...avreage/ok. Certainly no Bourne, although it's clear they were trying every angle to make you think it was (even some of the exact same stunt scenes :oops: :roll:)...and I can just about take the jumping on to 3 moving lorries but the jumping down the elevator shaft... :coffeespit: :coffeespit: .

My conclusion is that this sort of role is better suited to a man. Women are devious creatures, but watching her run at times was painful.
