Today I saw Vampires Suck.
This movie is a spoof of the vampire movies that seem to be all the rage at the moment. Teenager Becca, finds herself torn between 2 boys, vampire Edward Sullen and werewolf Jacob White. Becca and her friends wrestle with several dramas throughout the movie, with everything coming to a head at their prom.
I usually enjoy watching spoof movies, but this was painful to watch, the jokes were not funny barring a few, the cast were wooden and to be honest, I want my time and money back after watching this pile of trash.
Yes, vampires suck...but man, this movie sucks far more.
Vampires Suck is rated 12A (and is a cut version) and in cinemas now.

The Social Network
On Tuesday I went and saw the preview screening of The Social Network an Odeon Cinema, Basingstoke.
The movie is about Mark Zuckerberg and how he created Facebook, and the lawsuits against him. It starts with Zuckerberg getting drunk after being dumped, him hacking college "facebooks" and sending a link so that people could compare girls from colleges and vote who was hottest...and then from there creates "The Facebook" which becomes a social networking phenomena. Six years on and 500 million friends later Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in history, but not without it legal and personal problems along the way...
I must admit, when I heard there was going to be a movie based on the story of Facebook I thought it was going to be utter rubbish, and had quite low expectations of this movie going to see it, but I was quite surprised at how much I enjoyed this movie, and Jessie Eisenberg plays the role of Zuckerberg really well, and is supported with a great cast too. Go see this movie, you just might like it!!
The Social Network is in cinemas on 15th October and is rated 12A

Buried
Today I saw Buried at Vue Cinema, Festival Place, Basingstoke.
Waking groggy in the pitch darkness, Paul Conroy, an American truck driver working as a contractor in Iraq, realizes that he has been trapped inside a wooden coffin, and is buried alive. All he has is a Zippo lighter and he discovers there is a cell phone in there with him also. Conroy tries to use the phone to contact the outside World attempting to get rescued, but sadly he soon discovers that the outside World is not very helpinf at finding a man buried in a box in the middle of the Iraq desert so he must rely on the best resource that he has...himself.
The movie centres around Conroy and this is the only person you see in the entire movie, you see how he, he attempts to get himself out of the situation, with the battery of the cell phone he is using getting ever lower all the time.

Ryan Reynolds plays the role of Conroy really well, and although I didn't really expect much from this movie I did enjoy it, and wasn't too bad to watch. I don't want to say too much about this movie in fear of giving away the end for some, but I thought it was an interesting twist at the end.
Buried is rated 15 and in cinemas now
