Not looked into Sherlock Holmes before but it does look interesting. Nothing screams 'major blockbuster' though.

It's directed by Guy Ritchie, about Sherlock Holmes and stars Robert Downey Jr.

Nah, I see what you mean.

The Haunted Mansion:

Quite enjoyed this. It was cool seeing all the links and references to the ride. Eddie Murphy played the role well but tried to be too funny when the role needed to be more serious so it didn't break the mood of the scenes. The special effects are pretty good as well especially seeing that it came out in 2003.
It started off a bit slow and took them a while to get to the mansion and everything to kick off but once it started to pick the pace up it got better. There were quite a few obvious errors that were noticeable but they didn't really distract from the overall film.
The story could of been stronger. It was enough to follow the film and see the links to the ride, but it could of gone so much deeper while still keeping the fun and creepy atmosphere of the film.
The scene in the crypt with the zombies was good as well as the bit with the singing statues.
Overall it's worth seeing if you enjoy Disney stuff and it's great fun spotting stuff (there's quite a bit hidden in the film as well) that references to scenes from the ride. It's also quite a fun movie to watch and is enjoyable.
7/10

^^I absolutely hated Haunted Mansion. They so need to make a film based on the DLRP Frontierland story.
Yeah I know. I'm not 100% sure on the American story as I haven't been on it but I know some of the scenes are the same. The DLRP Frontierland story is probably the most in depth story on any ride ever. So it would be great to have a film about that. :)

$20? LOL! Drop those prices son. :p



Terminator: Salvation

Well.. I was never a huge fan of the original Terminators.. although I did see them all. This one had me confused at parts and did leave a few gaps in the story which could leave the non versed Terminator person in the dark.

It did leave me wanting more though.. as it left it open for the inevitable sequel to come..

Overall, plenty of Terminator killing, plenty of action, and Sam Worthington's character was EASILY the best in the movie.


7.5/10

But if Arnie isn't in it, it's already a fail!
