Just saw X-men origins:Wolverine at the cinema. When I watch these kind of films I tend to reserve judgement. It was entertaining, a decent blockbuster to watch on the big screen but certainly not something I'll buy on DVD. Parts were unnecessary and some of the CGI was dodgy as hell but I did think the film stayed fairly true to the original story of wolverine from the cartoons. (I never read the comics). If you have nothing to do with your afternoon, go and see it. Also watched Inside man, and I must say that I liked it. I've heard a lot of bad opinions about this film but I thought it was clever and entertaining. It did fail to highlight a lot of issues that it was trying to point out about society which is usually done very well in a Spike Lee film. While it may not be his greatest work, (and also a bit of an ipod advertisement) I thought the script was catchy and the acting was good. Overall, I thought it was a cool film.
