Fish! A Japanese Obsession where a UK guy traveled all around Japan for 6 weeks exploring all aspects that the Japanese have with seafood and with sea life. It really was quite interesting to see all the aspects of it and how pervasive a food stuff is within the history of a culture. He even went to Taiji and ate whale meat and although he was against the idea of whaling, he wasn't all preachy about it - he showed that this was part of their culture and how the pressure from the rest of the world was making these basic fishermen seem like monsters.
Anyway, great doco and I highly recommend it. 4/5
I Heart Huckabees - I gave up after 30 minutes, couldn't stand Jason Schwartzman's character. 0/5
*Avatar - saw it at IMAX, no real difference between that and the normal big screen.
*Return of the Jedi - wow, I forgot just how clunky it is, ah well, was still good fun. 2.5/5
Julie & Julia - brilliant turn by Meryl Streep and good performance by Stanley Tucci. Good, fun film. 3.5/5
Fighting - quite dull and predictable, I can't stand Terrence Howard's mumbling. 1/5
*Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire - fun but not brilliant. 3/5
