La la land 5/10 I couldn't watch more than 20 minutes worth, starts of with singing and dancing on the motorway and carries on in the same vein, not for me.

It is a musical lol.
Everyone I know that knew the genre beforehand loved it and others that didn't hated it and only saw it as people were talking about how great it was.
It was okay. The film was just incredibly one paced. Tells the story of Jackie Kennedy from the day of the JFK assassination through to his funeral. I know she's had rave reviews but I found Natalie Portman really boring in this. It was intresting enough and watchable but I was never gripped and towards the end I justed wanted it to be wrapped up.
One observation was the rest of the audience. My wife and I are mid 30's. Everyone else was between 50 and 70 I'd say. Maybe the film is aimed at a more mature audience?

Trainspotting 2 - 7/10
Okay so not as good as the original but it was pretty funny and entertaining. The overall story isn't amazing but it's full of little moments and scenes that keep things going along nicely. Plenty of nods to the original and little flash backs to when they where younger, to help flesh out their characters, which explains some of their behaviour in the first film.
Fun film which a great soundtrack. Nowhere near as dark as the original.

Personally our household are fans of the old style musicals of Hollywood's golden age Tinky.

Appleseed Ex Machina 8/10 Second film in the trilogy. Again beautiful CGI animation but perhaps a little Matrix like in places especially the drone killing scene. Nice idea about wearable / implanted tech making people into zombie like creatures on receipt of a control signal.

Lol, when i got the email notification and read your post you should have seen my face light up. I thought you was talking about a sequel to Ex Machina with Alicia Vikander and i said to myself "HOW DID YOU MISS THIS!!!"
