Pink Floyd - Pulse (1994): A great light show and the music is not too bad.
A Date for Mad Mary (2016): Mary's life is in a mess – it is a well performed drama with lead actress Seána Kerslake spot on.
Zero Days (2016): The film throws a lot of information at you in a short space of time and a second viewing will be helpful but the conclusions drawn are impressive.
Super Sucker (2002): Had some early promise as a comedy but everything gets a bit too silly to be funny.
Idiocracy (2006): If features different levels of humour and some of it is good. The plot idea makes it watchable.
Cool Hand Luke (1967): Newman is fine but is helped by a terrific supporting cast (prisoners & wardens). The action is sweaty but there are times when it goes overboard & loses effectiveness – indeed it has trouble ending the whole exercise & runs out of steam (sweat).; DVD ~~$30~~ $22.50
Blade (1998): Starts off great then this Snipes character comes along and kills off the vampires and its all down hill from there. Dorff is fine but when you have a legend in Udo Kier who barely appears it makes you think that they got the casting wrong.
Theatre of Death / Rasputin - The Mad Monk (1966-1973): Theatre of Death: Not great but a low budget effort that is better than a lot of bigger budget horrors.
Jackie (2016): I couldn't always make out what Natalie was saying but it seemed to be one of her better performances. Making a film about someone's real life trauma seems a bit tasteless and mercantile.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
Sleeping Dogs Lie (2006): I thought the male was a bit of a drip but there was at least an attempt in the screenplay to break the mold. Another plus is that it is not too long and doesn't overstay its welcome.
