I've had a bit of a resurgence in cinema trips this year; having discovered the Bluewater cinema is only down the road from the girlfriends (and isn't a total crap hole like the cinemas in Bromley and Croydon) I've been a lot more inclined to go this year.

Haven't seen Captain America yet, but everyone I know whose seen it has said its very meh. Saw Sucker Punch and was let down as I had been expecting a lot more, keep meaning to pick the extended blu-ray up as I'm hoping that will make it more of a complete film. Transformers 3 entertained me (and was better than number 2) but I wasn't that blown away. My girlfriend insisted on seeing Bad Teacher which was actually OK. Battle: LA was disappointing - watchable - but not that well put together in my opinion. Paul was funny (but not quite at the same level of Shaun... or Hot Fuzz), but still a good film.

Two best films I've seen at the cinema this year have been Inbetweeners (which I was afraid would run out of ideas when stretched across 90 minutes, but it really didn't) and, as much as it surprises me saying it, Fast & Furious 5. It wasn't big or clever, but it promised 2 hours of mindless summer entertainment and thats exactly what it provided.

Want to see Cowboys & Aliens but haven't had a spare evening for that one yet!
