The Great Wall - Chinese army's fight off monsters at the great wall every 60 odd years or summat. It's all going tits up until an (I think) Irish Matt Damon turns up and fucks shit up. Damon is magnificent as you can imagine and saves the day.
Polar - I voluntarily watched this, I'm not going to pretend my Mrs forced me to watch it like @
Alpha An ageing hit man is on the verge of retiring and with that comes a big payday. They went into a little too much detail on this and started talking about pension pots, no need. Anyway, rather than pay out the big bonus, the boss man (Matt Lucas WTF!!) has the retiring bod bumped off. Lots of killing, a bit of eye candy, it serves it's purpose. There's something endearing about the ageing hit man type. Mads Mikkelson in this, Jean Reno in Leon etc.
Trainspotting 2 - The gang reunite to a degree to make a bit of quick money to solve all sorts of problems. Begbie gets out of nick (the knitting needle scene creased me up) and makes a bee line for Renton who he wants to kill for taking the money. I'm a little bit meh with these films. Great soundtracks, great nostalgia trip, but not the must watch solid gold that they are for some, not for me. I should like Begbie. An all out nutter with no filter. I hate him though.
