Rain Man

It isn't all that. Dustin Hoffman puts in a very believable performance which drives forward the plot of Tom Cruise being a complete arse for three quarters of the film before undergoing an instantaneous change of character to completely care for his brother. You can watch and enjoy Rain Man but don't expect any life changing moments.

In Bruges

Very quotable with a good mixture of comedy and some genuinely emotional moments, Colin Farrell impresses. The story itself is excellently told, with a few interesting plot twists and quality score, being well paced and actually establishing the setting of Bruges are also good points. I enjoyed it, as did Vastian who insisted that I write this now rather than take my time to think out a proper review (he can be so whiney), I'll probably improve upon this at a later date.

Stardust

I really enjoyed Stardust and it made me, an eternal cynic, feel good about myself and even a bit of the outside world for a while. The story is great and the cinematography is faultless, so I'm giving it 5 out of 5. If anyone disagrees with me you may feel free to do so, but then you are reading this for my opinion and not your own so 'ha'.
