1999 thriller starring a (very young) Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jude Law, with Damon playing the Mr Ripley of the title, a young man with a talent for mimicry, who is hired by a wealthy American businessman (in the late 1950s) to bring his errant son back home from his idyllic lifestyle in sun-drenched Italy.

Initially planning on doing just that, Ripley soon finds himself drawn further and further into their lifestyle, soon going to extreme lengths in order to live the life that he craves (and that they do).

2026 crime thriller, that put me very much in mind of the 1990s film 'Heat', and that reunites Marvel Studios Thor (Chris Hemsworth) and Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) as, respectively, an elusive master-thief who commits crimes along LA 101 Freeway and the cop in pursuit of him (who nobody else believes).

The end result is something that was a bit long and 'talky' for my tastes, only really livening up in the handful of - admittedly pretty good - chase scenes or when Hemsworth and Rufallo share scenes togehter.

The Night House was my third movie at Cineworld Broughton yesterday and although I had heard many mixed feelings about the movie, my interest in The Night House was sparked by knowing that it was directed by David Bruckner who brought us The Ritual, a film I really enjoyed.

The Night House isn't as scary and jumpy as I hoped it would be, but it’s more of a supernatural thriller than horror and if you go in to watch it like that then you won’t be disappointed.
