What movie[s] have you seen recently?

I had a look for a general movie discussion topic, but couldn't see one, so I hope this isn't a duplicate.

Here's what I have seen recently:

Kenny - an Austrailian movie about an everyday nice guy, and his job (of which no-one approves) of cleaning toilets. It's filmed like a 'mockumentary', a la The Office or Spinal Tap. It's really about Kenny's job and the people in his life. A nice film which is definitely worth seeing and has more than a few funny moments. 8/10

Infernal Affairs - a superb Hong Kong movie about a police mole in a Triad gang and a Triad mole in the police department. As the two moles get closer to being discovered and finding out each other's identities, their cover - and lives in general - begin to fall apart. A really superb crime thriller which is better than pretty much any other film in the genre I can think of (with the exception of Training Day). Utterly superb, you must watch this movie. 9/10

Eagle vs. Shark - a gentle and funny New Zealand film about a geeky but sweet girl and her infatuation for a self-obsessed uber-geek called Jarrod. It's not quite your usual rom-com format - boy meets girl / they have mediocre sex / boy takes girl on road trip so he can beat up a former school bully / boy neglects girl / girl leaves / boy realises how much he took girl for granted. A nice, sweet film with some good lines in it, you'll like this if you like Napoleon Dynamite. 8/10

X-Men 2 - I watched most of this on TV last night. Just a great film with some superb action scenes (the intro is exceptional, as is Stryker's assault on Xavier's mansion), a good plot and very well-judged pacing. Definitely one of the best comic book movies. 9/10

Cas- About a well known football hoolligan from the 80's, I believe the movie is converted from one of the books he wrote about his experiences with the Intercity Firm. Was decent enough but I feel this type of film has been done enough by the likes of rise of the footsoldier, football factory and green street. Speaking of which theres a god awful sequel to green street on the way the trailer is horrible.

The mist- adaption of a Stephen King short story. Basically a town has a storm one night and a mist starts to creep down from the mountains. It just so happens that in the mountains theres a military base where they have been doing experiments. While shopping at the local supermarket a warning goes up as the mist engulfs the town and to the horror of everyone theres something in the mist. Sounds very clichéd it is clichéd but it also works very well. It isn't scary but does a good job of setting atmosphere and anticipation. Also a great ending which you wouldn't expect from a horror film.

The strangers- Now this one I didn't really like at all, for me it didn't offer anything original to the formuliac horror film. Couple staying at the guys parents weekend hideaway home. A creepy girl knocks on door, later knocks again etc. The terror increases from there.

Punisher Warzone and it was FANTASTIC! Underrated and easily the best comic to film adaption ever made.
