Preferred the old Mechanic, with Charles Bronson. A classic.

The new one is excellent with a better ending

good film but it was a bit drawn out in parts, a bit too long as you say.

Alright, not great. Expected better from Clint. Never really felt like it got going, didn't really feel like there was any kinda solid plot, just people wandering around trying to talk to dead people

I watched a couple of movies recently on Sky Movies, so natrually they are a couple of years old.

Paranomal Activity which did scare me, i hate films like that but I thought I would give it ago due to good reviews when it was at the cinema.

and

Defiance which is a good film about Russian jews evading the Nazis during WWII, Daniel Craig stars with a crap fake Russian accent. -
