    I'm on vacation this week and believe it or not, got bored so I went to see Witch Hunter. I really wasn't expecting anything much and I wasn't disappointed either. Just goes to show a bad day of fishing beats a bad night at the movies.

    I'll be at the movies tomorrow nite for Spectre though.. :)

    Saw this last night. Definitely a good movie overall. I don't like Matt Damon or anybody from Boston area as I hate Boston with a passion but he was awesome in this movie.

    I remember that movie! End of the world scenario with I think either a SME (solar mass ejection) or Neutron Star right?

    Ok Cman, finally got around to watching Man From UNCLE and I had to say it was very good, my wife loved it.

    give it a shot when you get a chance, set in the 1960's, they captured that era perfectly.

    Henry Cavil's character looks like he belongs in Mad Men.

    Yeah!! I enjoyed that movie. Nick Cage did a great job. Loved the plane crash scene. (morbid ain't it) :)

    RM, I did see UNCLE and like you, I liked it. It certainly was right out of the cold war era. The only thing missing was the duck and cover drills we used to do as kids.

    The end of the movie captured human beings as what most of them are, petty, with misplaced priorities.


    The mobs of people looting and worried about material possessions as the solar flares are scorching the planet.

    I did enjoy the movie as well.

    That was the best and most realistic plane crash scene I've ever seen in a movie.
