8/10 For what I was expecting it was surprisingly good and twisty. Very nice editing work. The story had me deeply submerged. Very entertaining and enjoyable.

 

The kid playing "The Rainmaker" is a genius actor, I was absolutely amazed :|. He steals the whole movie!

The Dark Knight - 8.5/10 - It drags on just a tiny bit too much. I found myself getting a bit bored towards the end. Still though, even after the hype train, this movie is awesome.

 

Which in turn made me watch:

Batman - 7.5/10 - I forgot how good this movie was. It hasn't aged well to be honest, but I really enjoyed it. I think Jack NIcholson is on par with Heath Ledger.

Lolwut? Ledger is on par with Nicholson!

 

I haven't seen The Dark Knight, but I loved Nicholson as the Joker in Batman.

 

One of his best lines: "He stole my balloons! Why didn't somebody tell me that he had one of those...THINGS?"

+1 

Man you have to see The Dark Knight, just for the sake of comparing jokers!

Strong focus on the story and solid action almost makes up for the mess that was The Last Stand. This is truly a comic fan's X-Men Movie and a great movie overall. And the after the credits scene... ohhh baby.

5/10 - very disappointed, will they ever create an new, original adventure for this.  I hope Abrams does better with the Star Wars universe.

9/10 - a bit long, but the story did keep me wondering what next, very good ending, though you were clued to what might happen.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
