A must watch light hearted comedy, The Duke, based on a not well known true story about Kempton Bumpton who stole a painting of the Duke of Wellington from the National Gallery in 1961.

Kempton played by the brilliant Jim Broadbent supported by Helen Mirren as his long suffering wife.

The court scenes are hilarious, ''I'd just finished reading Joseph Conrad's Heart Of Darkness and I felt a need to explore Sunderland.'' said the Newcastle born Bumpton.

That he is, as is Helen Mirren - there have a been a fair few previews recently, and one I'll certainly be watching. I shall however wait for YTS as has always been great quality (plus I have a multitude to get through as it stands)!!.

Thanks for the heads up on The Duke. Downloaded and watched over breakfast. First rate feel-good stuff. The PB version was good quality.
This is the way

Not one for most on the forum I'm guessing, but the new jackass entry Jackass Forever is out. Crazy 'stunts', exploding farts and penis-biting snapping turtles. It's everything you'd expect from the Jackass team.

Moonfall. Easy-watch, popcorn sci-fi. Thought it was decent.

For some reason I find this one very watchable, more than once. Disaster, action, adventure.

Had some dire reviews - so hadn't bothered. Might just attempt it now, if only to extract the urine afterwards with regards to your movie choices.

Forget the reviews. It's mindless, over-the-top, action packed fun. Armageddon meets Independence Day meets (insert more disaster movies). Some big name actors in it too.

If you're looking for a clever, meaningful movie... this ain't it. :D
