MOVIE SUNDAY! Or Looper and Jack Reacher
Two movies because all the writing was driving me nuts and chatter on twitter had me laughing SO HARD (#nuzzleftw) so MOVIE TIME IT WAS!
First: JACK REACHER
No real expectations here - I haven't watched a Tom Cruise movie since.. possibly either Tropic Thunder (which wasn't really a Tom Cruise movie) or before that.. the jumper one? I can't remember. but THIS was actually good?
Interesting plot, lost me toward the end once i figured out who the evil dudes were and I ended up playing (and LOSING to) Temple Run on my phone for a bit. I tuned in before the credits and I'll admit the only reason I paid attention was because of Robert Duvall really. Love him.
Still: 3/5
Second: LOOPER
which I had HIGH expectations of because JGL does pretty decent films and I have had a proper crush on Bruce Willis since my mum let me watch Moonlighting or maybe Die Hard but definitely in Hudson Hawke (he SINGS and I LOVE IT) and actually - checking on IMDB I may have seen nearly every movie he's ever made? *shrugs*
But this was BRILLIANT. BRILLIANT. I think Agu was going on about it on twitter a few times and it just. The story was different and even though I picked the end about an hour before it - I STILL loved it. Definitely one to buy on bluray (Which for me is pretty much the highest compliment LOL)
OH and the makeup/aging/blending effects in this between JGL and Bruce was FANTASTIC! I still couldn't wrap my head around the differences made to JGL to look more like Bruce - I missed his brown eyes and his chin and nose but it worked REALLY well.
DEFINITE 4/5
so now you, seen anything I should watch lately??
