50. Skyfall


Fifty Years of Bond and it all leads to number 50 on the blog and Skyfall. Can the series pick up from the pretty abysmal Quantum of Solace? Well yes, it does but after that movie, the only way is up.

It's a good solid Bond from start to finish and certainly Shit Bond's best. Not the greatest Bond (Man With Golden Gun, Goldeneye or Goldfinger for me) but very much a return to form with all the ingredients present and correct for a top quality caper.

I would say the only thing it lacks is a full on Bond girl - but the fan boy lip service is all very well received, especially when the DB5 makes an appearance...

Once they get the wise cracks back in, the series will be pretty much back to its best!

49. The Muppets


It's great!! For me though the one thing is really lacked was the kind of 'Muppet cruetly' of the TV show. Also  there is a distinct lack of Gonzo - which is pretty shitty.

Overall though it's top singing and dancing fun and if you have any kind of affection for the Muppet's at all you will get something out of this.

The only other thing I didn't like was the all too human based dance sequences. I want to see Muppet's dancing not humans - Less human, more Muppet!

48. Final Destination 5


I am a big fan of the Final Destination series and 5 is another steady instalment to the series that was suppose to have ended with the previous film 'The Final Destination' - which will no doubt be re-named in up and coming box sets as FD4.

5 takes the usual format and strips away the whole 'lets try and figure out why we survived and why we are all dying' aspect with Candyman popping up and telling our soon-to-be-deceased protagonists what the deal is. This leaves the film with more time to off teenagers but actually seems to slow the proceedings a little before turning into a more standard slasher for a good 15 minutes or so before the climax.

And what an end sequence it is! Probably the best ending to any FD movie (including the original I'd say).

Oh and the best death sequence... It has to be the gymnasium death scene - totally and utterly ridiculous but it had me in stitches.
