Sunshine Cleaning: Really good. Not something I would usually go to the movies for (I pay for stuff on the big screen only if it's grandiose enough to justify it), but there was nothing good showing and we wanted to catch a movie.
Il Divo: GAAHHH this movie is absolutely impossible to follow! WTF! Only watch once you've completely familiarised yourself with all the real events it depicts and have read the plot on Wikipedia or something at least ten times. Now I need to do taht, then watch it ten more times to realise what the hell was happening. It's excellent, other than that.

Bruno, while hilarious, lacks the consistency of Borat's funniness. It also feels like they've taken it too far, at times. Still, it's pretty fucking funny and well worth the money.

Public Enemies was another Michael Mann travesty. This is the only movie which has ever allowed me to doze off in the theatre. Sorry, Depp, sorry Bale - this movie's just boring to hell.

Fifth post in a row.
Anyhow, Ice Age 3 is crap. I know it's entertainment for children, but there's a long distance between making the characters, plot and conflicts basic, and making them entirely nonexistent.
The Hangover, on the other hand, is composed of 100% awesome! This is my movie of the year, so far.

Strange, I thought Ice Age 3 was the best of the franchise. Simon Pegg stole the movie.
