Blogs about movies I have watched.
Yesterday I went to see Oblivion starring Tom Cruise and Morgan Freeman. It’s hard to talk about this film without ruining it so I won’t say much other than I thought it was pretty good and the storyline really threw me as the twist wasn’t what I was expecting.
Was interesting to see Nikolaj Coster-Waldau in the film, really enjoying Game of Thrones at the moment and made a change to see him not playing a poncing rich boy with a sword!
I recently watched the documentary Sound City by Dave Grohl, it was definitely the best music documentary I have seen so far and a great insight in to a place where most of my favourite albums / artists were produced.
I also purchased the soundtrack which has songs by a lot of fantastic artists including Paul McCartney, Trent Reznor, Stevie Nicks and obviously Dave Grohl. I think my favourite track at the moment is “You Can’t Fix This” with Stevie Nicks because it really gets stuck in your head.
Tonight I saw Looper starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis at the Sheffield Cineworld cinema. I really enjoyed the movie as it had a good story (I’m a sucker for time travel) that wasn’t totally predictable unlike a lot of recent Sci-Fi movies.
There was plenty of good action scenes in the movie, but nothing over the top for the sake of explosions and I think the two main actors did well in their roles, although it must suck for Bruce Willis to slowly be fading into the background now and playing secondary roles.
The ending was pretty good and was a bit of a twist on what I expected was coming, overall the movie was definitely worth watching and I would recommend it.
