Yes, saw that with the kids last weekend and enjoyed it. There were quite a few references in there for the older generation that would be entirely missed by the youngsters.

I've seen Tangled twice now at the cinema (2D first time out) and it's easily the best film I've seen this year (including Black Swan, The King's Speech, etc.). Hilarious, very well animated, very good looking, not too long and it clips along at an excellent pace. The story is a bit shallow (Rapunzel with a thin veneer of newness), but that's about it in terms of downsides.
Worth watching twice, since you'll spot so many little visual jokes and cues that make sense after the first watch. Pascal and Maximus make the movie for me, 10/10.

On the other hand. I just saw a really good movie that surprised the hell out of me.
The A-Team. 9/10. I went into this expecting a 4/10 or 5/10 considering all the other bad movies that were made from 60s/70s/80s TV series the past few years. But it was genuinely funny in the spirit of the A-Team TV series. I knocked off 1 point because I don't think the person they got to play BA really fits, then again it's hard to find someonoe that can pull off Mr. T.

Surprised me too, really enjoyed A-Team the whole way through. I thought they each played their characters very well and the absurdities of the different action scenes were for once highly enjoyable and made me cackle with laughter rather than just rolling my eyes and sneering at the usual hollywood shit.

You may be right, butThen again the movie is so bad I'm not even remotely interested in looking to see.from what I remember he just got knocked out from a whack to the head.
After that, he's the only one alive in the room, he gets shot when he won't launch the nukes.

Burlesque - 8/10. A total girly film, with a clichéd plot, but the meat of the movie is the stage numbers, where Christina Aguilera looks, sounds, and dances great. Even her acting in the rest of it is not bad at all. Guys stuck on the sofa with their girlfriends/wives won't be too bored with all the thrusting and grinding female flesh on show. It may not have much in the way of aspirations beyond the song and dance numbers, but it does that very well indeed, and is much better than I was expecting.
Look out for Kristen Bell as a brunette diva, Cher's solo number in the middle of the movie, and the five seconds you see Christina Aguilera getting ready for a night on the town in a rather amazing skintight gold mini-dress.

Despicable Me - 6/10 The plot somehow feels all too familiar. Nothing bad but not overly spectacular either.
Let Me In - 8/10 I'll add it to the list of horror films I finished watching. Don't typically enjoy horror film, but this one is interesting enough for me to finish watching it, and maybe watch the original too.

Took the family to see Tangled yesterday, the only one who enjoyed it was the wife.
As a New Zealander Invictus was 0/10.
They obviously didn't want to sully the manifest destiny of the South Africans by showing the mighty All Blacks on the sideline puking their guts out.

Saw the Other guys today. Tought it was pretty good, although pretty much only because of his magnificense Sir Will Ferrel. Mark Wahlberg was ok too. 3.75/5
Love & Other Drugs 6/10 - wife conned me into this via movies on demand, and fortunately she disliked it even more than I did. I at least had the benefit of seeing Anne naked in multiple scenes, but otherwise an utterly forgettable movie.
