Keeps you guessing
Good cast
All aboard!
I have to admit I haven't read the book, so can't compare the two. However as a thriller this is brilliant and definitely one of the best films of last year for me. It's gripping, raunchy, brutal and will have you on the edge of your seat for the whole ride!

Huge scale to the film
Intense realistic battle scenes
Amazing world War 2 drama
One of the best War films made, very powerful and intense at times. Probably the most realistic battle scenes to depict the D Day landings. A brilliant performance from Tom Hanks. Not for the faint of heart but a very emotive film showing Spielberg at his best.

Scarlett Johansson
A true blockbuster film
What more could you ask for from an action film when you have Iron Man, Capt America, Thor, Hulk Black Widow and Hawkeye teaming up to battle an alien invasion. Ground breaking action scenes but thankfully backed up with an engrossing storyline. A must see!

Watch it only one time
Like most Nolan films, it's brilliant the first time you see it. But then for some damned reason you get roped into seeing it again, and then suddenly all the problems with the film are un-ignorable. I'm not gonna list them all here, you can ruin it for yourself.

One of Danny Boyle's Best
Danny Boyle is one of those directors that can rarely do wrong, and he really excels here with this beautiful sci-fi. It's well acted and has a fantastic cast, the effects are brilliant and it's a really interesting plot. The soundtrack by John Murphy is probably one of my all time favourite soundtracks, so haunting and memorable.

Brilliant & brutal
A great story with a great cast. Christoph Waltz is one of my favourite actors at present and is excellent here. The story is engrossing although some scenes are very graphic with a lot of violence, what else from a Tarantino film. One of the best Westerns for a long while.

Great ending
Extremely funny and enjoyable to watch. The ending is so brilliant and the whole film is so clever with it's twists and turns. You always know something is coming or something is gonna pop up but you never know what it is and it is always hilarious when it does happen. It's absolutely hilarious.

Lovely quirky, comedic film. Kate Winslet is brilliant as usual. Her character returns as a bright and lively talented dress maker in a village full of drab, petty-minded, snooty people . Hugo Weaving's portrayal of a camp, dress loving police sergeant had me in stitches. I had never heard of this film but I don't know why it wasn't more popular.

A Brilliant Read
Aside from the romance and the fairly surprising twist this book is a brilliantly written historical fiction based around real life events, the main characters are interesting and the action is fantastically written, this is a book I have read several times and is still very much a page turner for me.
