    I finally got round to watching Wolf of Wall Street last night.

    I have to say it lives up to all the hype and is a must watch! Such a great film and great performance from Dicaprio.

    It's amazing how opinions can vary, i thought it was an outstanding movie and would've easily give it 10/10.

    Insidious2. Ghostastic. Not sure I can ever remember a movie of this type that was so full on with the action and involvement of the ghosts. Most times its usually a glance out of the corner of the eye then 10 minutes of nothing. This one was happening for the full movie. Far, far better than the first one imo.

    Only downside is that I think the main guy in it is a * poor actor. Dont know what it is about him but he just doesn't convince at all.

    Watched the remake of Carrie. Nothing to write home about, but Chloë Grace Moretz was actually real good in it.

    Wolf of Wall Street.

    Brilliant, a classic Scorsese.

    Definitely 'glamourised' it a bit too much though.

    Would * Margot Robbie something awful, dunno how Di Caprio could keep his * down, during the * scenes. I would be a walking *.

    I watched that The Seasoning House last night. Pretty * disturbing tbh. Was no bad. Pretty poor ending but in keeping with what was supposed to be a horror it had that cliffhanger "but he was one of the bad guys".
    Not much of a horror movie as opposed to just deeply disturbing and wrong, but to think that there probably is places like that.

    5/10 for me

    The Wolf of Wall Street - Incredible film it's genuinely one of the best films I've ever seen. DiCaprio's performance was brilliant and surprisingly I thought Jonah Hill was very good aswell.

    Seven Psychopaths: 9/10 - Unusual movie, some really funny scenes and definitely worth a watch.

    Silver Linings Playbook: 8/10 - Good story of a guy and girl with bipolar disorder meeting.

    Take Shelter: 7/10 - A guy is obsessed with an oncoming apocolyptic storm until it takes over his dreams/life.

    To Do List - some laugh and if you like Parks and Recs. Aubrey Plazza was really funny in this.

    I feel no shame in admitting that I watched 90% of that film through my fingers

    Aye, some great scares and jumpy moments- wish I'd seen it in the cinema, with the surround sound it would have been even better.

    American Gangster. Class movie I thought.

    Frank: "Where's my money? Redtop gave you the package." "You're supposed to be handing me my money."
    Frank: "Here's a jar right here. Twenty percent."
    Tango: "You got the jar?"
    Frank: "That's right."

    *Frank points gun to Tango's head

    Tango: "What the * you gonna do, Frank? Huh? What you doing? You gonna shoot me in front of everybody? Huh? Come on!" *Bang*

    Cant speak highly enough of Wolf of Wall Street- rollercoaster from start to finish, shows what happens when somebody makes too much money too young and likes to party, would loved to have lived a week in his shoes though!! increadible acting and directing
