SEEN: Thor


The trailer looked good for this, but then I saw it had Kenneth Branagh involved who I sort of can't stand. He needs to keep his teeth off the scenery that man. Plus the lead actor looked like a bit of a big lug. This was, however, a pleasant surprise of an origin story. It helped to have my expectations at a subterranean level though.  Good effort all round. Recommendation: thumbs up.

SEEN: Cowboys and Aliens... on DVD

It's not really a Western and not really a sci-fi movie, and in fact it wasn't really much of anything. I've spent up to a couple of hours in more painful ways but not even the might of James Bond and Han Solo did much for me here. It may help to be drunk. I will stick to Firefly for this sort of thing. Recommendation: thumbs down.
