Wrath Of The Titans. ***SPOILERS if anyone cares!!***

See, this is what I wanted from the first one, brain-off entertainment that isn't offensively dire. Action scenes were cool, f/x were decent, and I couldnt help smiling when Neeson and Feinnes were kicking joint ass at the end.

An enjoyable 2.5/5

The Addams Family,

Hard to know best how to review this, on one hand you have Raul Julia and Angelica Huston doing a superb job as Gomez and Morticia, as well as Christopher Lloyd as Fester. Even the kids are decent, as are the f/x and the set design, in fact the set design is superb, the whole film is dripping with a humerous, macabre touch that works very well...on the other hand there is a pretty dire story plonked in the middle of it all that is too simple and has literally no twists or turns at all.

3/5

I have only just realised what a superb personality Raul Julia was, Gomez is a joy to watch, and despite the unrealistic character he is playing he nails it perfectly. Its a crying shame that his last film was Street Fighter
