Gamer
Gerard Butler is a Death Row Prisoner who agrees to be part of a TV show run by billionaire, Michael C. Hall where he is controlled by a player and is in real life Shoot Em' Up game. Rebels assist him as it appears there is a larger conspiracy in play. This is decent enough fodder but it could have been so much better if the camera shots were better and had a bit less weirdness.
Back To The Future
Michael J. Fox is the teen who goes back in time where he has to make sure his Dad meets his Mom. However he has the added issue of his Mom (As a unaware teen) having a crush on him. 1st time seeing this film and I liked it however I thought that the song, The Power Of Love would have been featured more.
Casino
Robert De Niro is in charge of a Las Vegas Casino and this is his story which incorporates his friendship with Joe Pesci and marriage to Sharon Stone. This is an entertaining film but the last 50 minutes dragged a bit as it focused more on the marriage disintegrating. The scenes with the hammer and vice were good. Oh by the way, if I meet Joe Pesci and he asks me to do something, it'll go alone the lines of yes sir and is there anything else I can do, he portrays the man you don't want to get angry really well.
Hangover
A group of friends go to Las Vegas for a Bachelor Party but can't remember what happened and they lost the Groom. This was the best of the series (The other 2 were awful) but it wasn't as good as before. The Mike Tyson scenes were still funny as before.
Day After Tomorrow
The Earth is experiencing very extreme weather and it's up to Dennis Quaid and co. to help stop it. This is one of those forgotten films and it is brilliant, the F/X is incredible and it's one of those films that what actually be good in 3D.
