Tron: Legacy (PG) Dir: Joseph Kosinski, Starring: Jeff Bridges, Garret Hedlund, Olivia Wilde.
This has to be the best way to round off a great year of film. Since 3D came along, We've had the good (Avatar) and the bad (Clash of the Titans), and Tron: Legacy definitely fits into the good category.
The new imagining of Steven Lisberger's 1982 film is brilliantly captured using stunning special effects which rival those used in throughout Avatar, and a brilliant use of 3D technology which makes you feel like you're actually there on the Grid with the characters.
We start the film in 1989, where Kevin Flynn (Bridges) is telling his son about The Grid before he disappears into the night. However, it's not quite Bridges. Using the aging technology pioneered in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, they have created the young Bridges, to play himself, and his digital son, Clu. The level of this effect is brilliant, to a point where you have to remind yourself that he is just CG.
Snap forward several years, and we run into Sam Flynn (Garret Hedlund) weaving his way through cars on a Ducati Sport Classic 1000 to play a prank on Encom on the relase of their latest OS.
Sam promptly gets zapped into the Grid, and while being taken to be suited up in his strip-light armour, complete with disc on his back and thrown into the gladitorial games, we get a good look at the Grid, with it's luminescent architecture and reflective surfaces, it is similar to the city fly-by that was present in the opening credits, but on a much grander scale.
Entered unwillingly into the gladiator games which viewers of Tron will remember, the ring battle is a flurry of deja-vu, and the lightcycle event even more so, but with the latest effects they are flung away from the 80's offering. That is until he is saved by Quorra (Wilde) and taken off-Grid to where his father is hiding from Clu.
The lightcycle scene has to be one of the best throughout the film, with exquisite effects. The bikes weave ribbons of liquid-like light that destroys whatever touches it in an, again, fluidic explosion and scattering of derezzed pixels everywhere, a brilliant scene which is reflected towards the end of the film with the light-jet fight offering more luscious effects.
The other high point is, obviously, the soundtrack. Created and mixed by Daft Punk, who even cameo in Castor/Zuse's (Michael Sheens) club as the resident DJ's. This is a most fitting film for the pair whose electronic music is perfect for the beautifully luminous setting of the Grid.
The only downside is the story, which turns out to be very predictable, quite cheesy in places, and not as good overall as they could have made it. However, the score and the special effects are more than enough to keep your mind thoroughly blown.
Legacy reflects the original Tron in so many ways, trying to beat a giant airship to a destination, the light-train, and with Flynn's ability to control and re-write the Grid to his own desires. It also shows the level of graphics that are apparent both back in '82 and '10, with the differences being stark, but the effect no less brilliant. In 28 years we will probably look back on Legacy in the same way we look back on Tron, but instead of thinking 'Wow this is so fantastically 80's' we'll be thinking 'How teenies!' (Or whatever this decade's going to be called!)
I cannot urge people enough to go and see this film, just so you can immerse yourself in a 3D world that even puts Pandora to shame.

Another helping from the guys at Fast and Furious. Done to death yet? Maybe. But still, how much do you want to see this film?

Monsters (12A) * * *
Monsters (12A) Dir: Gareth Edwards, Starring Scoot McNairy, Whitney Able.
A probe, sent to investigate alien life in the solar system has crashed in Mexico. Pretty soon, the life forms have started to run amok across Central America. Andrew (McNairy) is a photographer working for a newspaper, getting photo's to detail the impact the 'creatures' have had around the 'Infected Zone'. Sam (Able) is the daughter of Andrews boss, and thus the pair are flung together as he is instructed to bring her back to America. After a series of unfortunate events, they are forced to travel across the Infected Zone together, and their feelings for each other grow, until they eventually get back to the safe, warm bosom of America.
This is a really good film, which instead of focusing on the US Military's fight against the aliens, follows the pair on their journey, and their developing relationship, with the backdrop of US planes and helicopters flying past every so often, or wreckage strewn about.
It's a great example of defamiliarization, showing people living their everyday lives, but with the constant reminder of the aliens behind giant walls and electric fences. It harks back to the good old days of cinema, where you don't see the monster, except for the odd blurred image, or glimpse through the mist or the dark, until the very end.
Edwards has made a very watchable film, but don't go thinking it will be anything like Skyline, or the latest offering of War of the Worlds. It's a lot subtler than that, and considering it was made with a shoestring budget, and the effects were all done by Edwards himself, and a two person cast, it's a good watch.

Inception (15) * * * * * (DVD)
Inception (15) Dir: Christopher Nolan. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page, Ken Watanabe, Cillian Murphey, Marion Cotillard.
Score: Hans Zimmer.
Imagine you can get inside other peoples dreams. Now imagine that you make a career out of going into peoples dreams to steal their ideas: extraction. You're the best at what you do, and then one day you get a job offer to do the exact opposite. You need to implant an idea instead of stealing one: Inception.
The film tracks Cobb (DiCaprio), an extracter who, wanted by the authorities in America and numero uno on an energy conglomerate's hitlist, is hired by company owner Saito (Watanabe) to try and implant an idea in business competitor Fischer's (Murphy) head, with the promise of a clean slate and returning to his children.
To do this he needs Ariadne (Page), a talented architect to create a number of dream levels that they all must navigate in order to implant the idea deep in Fischer's head to ensure he carries it out.
The only thing standing in their way is a highly militarized subconscious trying to kill them, and Cobb's dead wife (Cotillard), created by his subconscious to jeopordize everything he does.
This film is a brilliantly clever and emotive offering by Nolan, following his highly rated Batman Begins, and Dark Knight. Including one of DiCaprio's best performances, this will leave viewers wondering partly 'will the top stop spinning' and 'I hope that the top stops spinning.
One of the best films of the year by far, I highly recommend this to everyone.

Carole Nash Motorcycle Show 2010 (Inc Ramp'd Motocross Freestyle)
Carole Nash Motorcycle Show 2010 (Inc Ramp'd Motocross Freestyle) Nov 27-Dec 5.
As always, the Carole Nash Motorcycle Show at the NEC in Birmingham didn't fail to showcase the bikes, new, current and classic that are on offer to bikers, aswell as showcasing some of the best custom bikes from around the country. It also gives us a great opportunity to get our hands on gear with a decent discount, from gloves, jackets and lids, to spares, gadgets, and stands.
The show had all of the major manufacturers, Triumph, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Harley Davidson, Honda, Ducati, Mv Augusta, KTM and Victory, aswell as smaller names such as Hyosung and Sym.
The one off customs were fantastic this year, including a boat load of bikes customed by enthusiasts in the UK, and this Suzuki Hayabusa which was commissioned by Pepsi for an advertising campaignm featuring Beyonce, J-Lo, and David Beckham. The bike shown here was used by J-Lo in the advert.
See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8Hgs2h-mX4
The show also included some beautiful classic bikes, such as Royal Enfield, and Norton. On the Royal Enfield Stand, a bike lots of people will recognise from the latest Harry Potter film, complete with sidecar.
The wide range of bikes naturally included some of the fastest and most expensive bikes, from the 186mph Yamaha R1 (left) to the Suzuki Hayabusa (yes, that is me sat on the 'Busa).
The superbikes weren't all limited to the run of the mill, ride out of the dealer types either, with examples of the racing bikes which competed in championships this last year.
I really enjoyed this years show, and can't wait to see what 2011's will bring.

As you can see, the standard of the customisation this year is first class, with some truly beautiful machines graving the stands, from imposing streetfighters to chromed choppers.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 * * * *
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (12A)
Dir: David Yates
Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint.
I must admit, honestly, that the Harry Potter films have been great for entertainment value, but as an avid reader of the books, I have been left disappointed as they have been leaving out key parts of the books.
I don't know whether the decision to chop The Deathly Hallows into two pieces was in a bid to solve this, but it has, if i remember the book properly, included alot of the book.
The films have been getting decidedly darker as they have progressed, as indeed did the books, and it fully deserves its 12A certification. With deaths, torture, and peril, it proved to be up there with some of the better films of the year.
The only downside has to be, as I am sure alot of people have said, is the acting talents of the three main actors. They are as devoted to the role as they ever have been, but unfortunately they are still don't hold a candle to the talent that is given bit parts.
Having said this, I will be the first to admit that, despite my love for him, Bill Nighy's portrayal of Rufus Scrimgeour wasn't very good.
This is a greatly entertaining film for fans of the series, and will probably rack up huge profits by the end of the year. I am deeply looking forward to the continuation in July.

'World Invasion: Battle Los Angeles' Trailer
Another day, another trailer people. First, Skyline, set over LA, a brilliant film. Now, on 25th of March, World Invasion: Battle Los Angeles! A continuation? Not from the looks of it, but still, looks damn exciting.
N.B. Anyone else notice the shift from films being set in New York to LA? A musing for you all to mull over

Skyline (15) * * * * *
Dir: Colin and Greg Strause (Eric Balfour, Scottie Thompson, Donald Faison)
Even before I saw the trailer for Skyline, people were telling me that it was going to be like an 'adults Independence Day'. I promptly went onto IMDB, found the trailer, and my interest was piqued. 'This looks promising,' methinks.
As it turns out, the rumours were, indeed, true.
Everyone's seen the nature documentarys, or even the scene in finding nemo, with the deep sea angler fish, using bioluminescent lures to tempt unsuspecting fish into their mouths. This seems to be the same premise with the invaders in this, and also to continue the latest trend to follow onlookers as oppose to the people fighting the invaders, as seen in Matt Reeves' Cloverfield.
The film starts with the now iconic LA skyline being bombarded with blue lights before a flashback to Terry's (Faison) birthday party. A classic LA, all out, drink-a-skinful bash.
Then the lights come, and Jarrod (Balfour) looks into the light and gets the funky skin art around his eyes that we all know and love from the trailer, but manages not to do as every other moth human seems to and walks towards the light. Cue witty bugs life quote here.
As the film prgoresses, he looks into the light several more times whilst trying to save his pregnant girlfriend Elaine (Thompson) and others, all to the backdrop of what's left of the military fighting back.
I'm loathe to say much more, without revealing a boatload of spoilers so, as the main thing seems to be to compare Skyline as an adults Independence Day, here are some similarities and differences between ID4 and Skyline.
i) ID4 aliens come to blow shit up, Skyline aliens come to abduct.
ii) Both films don't go into the origins of the invaders.
iii) ID4 only has one type of alien, Skyline has flying squids, and giant apes.
iv) Both films have stupendously cheesy endings.
All in all Skyline seems a damn site better than ID4, and would highly recommend it.

Sucker Punch
Sucker Punch - March 2011.
It's almost as though someone dug inside my head, found all my favourite things and put it into a film. As Becky said, "None of those things go together!" I don't care, it looks joyous, and I cannot wait. Stay tuned for reviews as soon as it's out.

Burke and Hare (15) ****
Starring Simon Pegg, Andy Serkis, and Isla Fisher.
I found it amusing to see how a failed attempt to scrape a living selling cheese mold as a miracle, all-curing moss, turned into a lucrative business selling the recently deceased (who you have helped shuffle off this mortal coil) to a medical college.
The film follows the exploits of Irish Burke (Pegg) and Hare (Serkis) in Edinburgh as they struggle to make ends meet, when they find that the local medical college is offering great rewards for cadavers. This leads, as is so often the case, to the pair needing to be more inventive in their means of collecting bodies than the standard grave robbing.
After two successful sells, the pair begin a host of bungled attempts to 'acquire' new cadavers, with some fairly humourous results, and an introduction into the 1828 Edinburgh underworld.
In a round-about way, this leads to Burke meeting Ginny (Fisher), a local lady of the night who wants to get into the more legitimate business of acting. With the introduction of Ginny, the film takes a turn to detail Burkes quest to get his jollies.
This is a murderous romp to provide money, sex and, of course, laughs - a thoroughly enjoyable 91mins, encompassing a glorious Hammer style gore, and a humourous style that is quintessentially Simon Pegg.

SG:U continued
Am finally up to date with SG:U, and I must admit that I am loving it. This series shows alot more character development, and strengthens my feelings towards them, whether it be empathy, or thinking that they are just complete and utter- You get the picture.
I continue to stand by what I have said in the past, that SG:U is brilliant for the 'reality' of it. Instead of focusing on the whole Sci-fi wonder of it all, it is more of a normal drama series, detailing the day to day of a group of people who just so happen to be stuck at the other end of the Universe, and who are finding ways to deal with what gets thrust upon them.
So far, fans have been given deaths, aliens, schizophrenia and mild delusions caused by carnivorous plants, and I cannot wait for what the rest of the series brings.

Stargate Universe
I have so far watched 3 episodes of the second season of SG:U, and it has not disappointed, giving us action, deaths, mental breakdowns, strange occurrences, and new alien encounters.
Still trying to find their way back to Earth, the crew is put under great emotional stress, as they now have members from the Lucian Alliance on board with them, in addition to a couple of deaths (which I won't go into telling you for worry of spoilers).
Dr Nicholas Rush, and Colonel Everett Young continue to aggravate each other, and I find my love/hate relationship with the characters which I developed during the first season is as strong as ever, as I am sure Brad Wright and Robert C. Cooper intend.
With just two more episodes until I am caught up with the rest of the Sky1 viewers, I will post again in a while.

Despicable Me (U) * * * *
Despicable Me (Steve Carell, Russell Brand, Jason Segal)
This latest 3D family animation offering proves to be a highly amusing film for both children and adults. The main story line is of the super-villain, Gru, who adopts three orphans to help him in his scheme to steal the moon. But, as time passes with the three girls, he grows to love them, ending in an albeit cliched way, but entertaining non the less.
Steve Carell performs very well with his roll as Gru, and is supported well by Russell Brands Dr. Nefario. Unfortunately the pair, whilst providing a few laughs, are upstaged by the Gru's Minions, who are the comical backbone to the film.
The other let down was the 3D effects which, whilst ok, left something to be desired, not being as crisp as some other films have offered.
All in all, a very good film, and one definitely worth watching for both adults and kids alike.

Stargate Universe
I am very excited about what to expect from the second season of Stargate Universe (SG:U) after watching the new season trailer on Youtube. Thankfully, whilst I am in Chester, the second season is recording on the Sky+ box in Burton, which means I can catch up when I return, but from the looks of the trailer, all SG:U fans are in for a treat, which looks to be the unlocking of Destiny's mission, new aliens, a love interest for Eli, and, tantalisingly, a glimpse of the ship exploding.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NbBcLf1-jA is the link to the trailer.
Once I get back to Burton and watch what is waiting for me, I will be back on here filling readers in on the developments.
P.S. Anyone who has seen the series so far, please don't tell me what happens.
