Wanted

I didn't want to watch this originally, thought it would be derivative and not have much to offer. Turned out be be a damn good action flick with an interesting story.

You should really try to grab the trade paperback of the WANTED comic.
Much, much better.

Fast & Furious (2009)

Only theatrical movie experience in my recent tour of Thailand. Actually I was more interested to see the new Thai gore fest Meat Grinder but I couldn't manage the time to see that as my friends more or like forcefully drag me to see F&F. Anyway, it was pretty entertaining, good races and fairly action packed. Better than the previous sequels of the series.

When Worlds Collide (1951)

Hahaha...oh, the naivety of 50's sci-fi. Very entertaining movie, but utterly devoid of logic - which, of course, if half the fun of 50's sci-fi in the first place :D

As much as I enjoyed it, there seemed to be a lot of wasted potential there. Personally, I would have liked to see more of how the rest of the world was coping with doomsday, rather than just the happy-go-lucky scientists in the camp. Plus, there could be a whole other movie after they succeed in landing on Zyra. That's just a goldmine of possibilities...

I'm sure the forthcoming remake will make better use of the potential :rolleyes:

Love that film, you're right about the full potential not being realized but its such a good story even with the holes.

Arsenic and Old Lace (1944) - 10/10.

One of the funniest films I've ever seen.
