An Unfinshed Life. 2005. Germany.

Jennifer Lopez is the daughter-in-law of Robert Redford. Years before she was driving a car which resulted in an accident and her husband dying.

Her father-in-law blames her. He has a farm/ranch and his old friend (Morgan Freeman) lives there as well.

He doesn't know he has a daughter, and Lopez, fleeing her current man in her life, after he was violent towards her, runs to Redford's character.

Then we have a story of redemption, second chances and healing, very predictable, not bad, but mot something truly memorable either.

Morgan Freeman = 44/57.

Robert Redford = 26/38.

Jennifer Lopez = 12/23.

My rating = 6/10.

Harold. 2008. USA.

Spencer Breslin, (younger brother of Abigail, who was in Little Miss Sunshine) is the lead role as Harold, a thirteen year old boy who suffers from very early male pattern baldness.

Whilst suffering at school he establishes a friendship with the janitor played by Cuba Gooding Jr.

It sounds bad, but is actually very amusing and has a good story and you know the good guys will win and they do!

The movie is filled with great odd ball characters.

A very entertaining romp!

Cuba Gooding Jr = 20/40.

My rating = 8/10.

Infamous. 2006. USA.

Some movies are automatically compared to others. Sequels are compared to their originals. Remakes are compared to the original source. In this case it is not either of these but the case where another movie is made treading similar ground to another movie.

Infamous is the story of Truman Capote and his writing of the book In Cold Blood, which had just been filmed the year before with award winning Capote.

So, rightly, or wrongly this movie is compared to Capote and well suffers from that comparison. The biggest problem is the lead role. Toby Jones is no match for Philip Seymour Hoffman, and in the role of Harper Lee Sandra Bullock is nowhere near Catherine keener.

This movie had some interest but with comparison and as a whole, it was average.

Sigourney Weaver = 24/43.

Sandra Bullock = 22/37.

Gwyneth Paltrow = 30/36.

Daniel Craig = 13/29.

My rating = 6/10.

Invincible. 2006. USA.

Mark Wahlberg is a thirty year old man who becomes the oldest ever NFL rookie in this story based on true events.

Disney has made liberties with the story and made it seem a little more incredulous than what it really was, he was not just plucked from the streets but was playing in a lower grade competition and of course the ending was manufactured a bit, however it was true that this man of an age where in sport most would say had done his dash become a rookie and played for three seasons.

Well made and acted inspirational story from Disney.

Mark Wahlberg = 19/24.

My rating = 7/10.

Exit Wounds. 2001. USA.

Steven Seagal features in action film revolving around police corruption and weapons dealing etc.

A bunch of rappers and other actors are in the support cast which lift the movie. The script is surprisingly good and all in all it is an average movie.

Steven Seagal = 08/19.

Anthony Anderson = 16/30.

My rating = 6/10.

The Code. 2009. USA.

A veteran thief played by Morgan Freeman, recruits a younger thief played by Antonio Banderas, to pull a final job to satisfy the Russian mob.

There are many twists and turns along the way. some of them quite ridiculous, but it all fits neatly together at the end in true Hollywood fashion, to make an average story.

Morgan Freeman = 43/57.

My rating = 6/10.
