Birdemic: Shock and Terror.
Dreadful, in an oddly good hearted sort of a way. As though a group of friends were told that they could have a film released as a reward for good GCSE results, and set to with no budget and a cast made up mostly of family and friends. It's not cynically bad, in the way that, say , Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, or The Spirit are, just terribly inept.

The third Nicholas Winding Refn film I've seen (Valhalla Rising, Fear X being the other two). This is a cracker, a bit Point Blank in its silent, force of nature protagonist pitted against the mob. Very stylish, and well scored too.

Give Only God Forgives a go. Thing of beauty in a similar vein.

What we did onnour Holiday.
Ben Miller, Billy Connoly, Rose Pike, that brainy guy in The Inbetweeners.
I downloaded this movie a few months ago but I only watched it tonight. Charmingly nice film.

Wet Hot American Summer - 9/10
An absolute gem of a film. Hilarious and well observed satire with an unbelievably good cast. Netflix has a series, set on the first day of camp, rather than the last. I'm looking forward to it immensely.

Filmspotting: SVU covered this in their last episode - they were complimentary too, must get around to seeing it.

I've not even started on Sense8!
I kind of hope that Gene starts off totally normal and it's the camp which causes his mind to unravel...

[QUOTE 3909998, member: 259"]Grand Theft Auto - worst TV film of the year, featuring Daniel "Woodentop" Radcliffe, though I doubt it would have been any better if they'd drafted a real actor in. There were lots of designer fixies, but barely worth a 3/10.[/QUOTE]
Is that The Gamechangers? Apparently Rockstar have said it's a load of hokum.

We've just finished Season 1 of Hand of God, fair bit of nonsense in it but overall it was pretty good with some decent acting.

[QUOTE 3910064, member: 259"]Yes, sorry, it was. It wasn't the fact it made Rockstar look like anything they weren't, it was just frigging dull![/QUOTE]
Watched it last night, and I'd agree that it wasn't the most exciting of films. That said, it had some pretty good moments and they nailed the GTA style for the murder scene. Clearly made for TV though, so it lacked any kind of pace or tension, and chopping between Radcliffe and Paxton scenes got really irritating.
Radcliffe's glued on beard was pretty hilarious, as was the earnest nature of Bill Paxton who had the most understanding wife in the world.
I'd maybe be a bit more generous and give it a 4, just for the murder scene. But yeah, not a great film at all.
