Only God Forgives
The same combination as in Drive with Ryan Gosling and Nicolas Refn directing but it doesn't quite work as well.
The film uses similar sound and visual effects to create the depth and darkness and it's good. There are also Tarentino style scenes of violence where it's all very artistic and sadistic. The film though is just that little bit too weird and fails to adequately depict any true sense of story or vengeance. Instead the ending is all very suggestive and odd and you finish watching it left with shock from the violence and a question mark over what was really going on.

The Imitation Game.
Enjoyed it and it's good that Turings story is being heard. Cumberbach is really very good!
7.5/10

Coherence - 7/10
Decent sci-fi flick, wasn't expecting much but kept my interest for the duration. Ending seemed a bit rushed and anti-climactic but over all not bad and fairly original

The Wildest Dream - 9/10
Documentary film about George Mallory's attempt to summit Everest decades before Hillary and puts to the test could himself and Irvine actually made it to the summit before dying on the mountain. Brilliant watch, these guys when you see the equipment they had and what they were up against....it truely boggles the mind how you would even contemplate it?. Made of different stuff back then they were.

I remember hearing of this film in the news articles when Natasha Richardson died, but had forgotten about it since. Always been fascinated by Mallory etc so will try and get to see it.
Thanks for the reminder ;-)
