A very strange film, but compelling watching. There is no "action" to speak of, and the pace is very slow, but I found it strangely mesmerising. Scarlett Johansson's acting is amazing. She says very little, and what she does say is in a very good English accent, and so what's going on inside her character's head is conveyed almost entirely through body language and facial expression. The way she conveys curiosity, bewilderment, confusion, vulnerability and fear without words is quite mesmerising. To my mind this film is about the transformation from what's under the skin being the dominating factor, to the skin gradually taking over, and the predator becoming the prey. For me, it's one of those films where, the more often you watch it, the more it gets under your own skin, and the more you appreciate what an acting master class it is from Scarlett Johansson.

What a totally bonkers film. I have no idea what it's about but it entertained me for one hour and 45 minutes, and made me laugh out loud several times, which is unusual for so called comedies these days. The whole thing is totally wierd and surreal, but in a good way. The bit where the alien arrives and takes back the meteriorite is hilarious, but in a very understated way. Don't try and understand it, just embrace the weirdness. Make sure you watch it as the credits start to roll, and keep your eyes on the roadrunner.

I've just watched about two thirds of this film and then turned off. I'd seen enough. I really cannot believe that people spent money making this nasty movie. This is not entertainment, so what's it's purpose? A message about racism? In my opinion you don't need to watch 90 minutes of fiction to find out that supposedly decent people can be racists. If you're the kind of person who needs to stick their hand in a pan on the stove to find out that boiling water hurts, then by all means go ahead and watch it. But if, like me, you are aware of the world we live in, then you can almost certainly find something more entertaining and/or educational to do for 90 minutes.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. I often find that comedy films just don't make me laugh, but this one did. Jennifer Lawrence as the hard-up Maddie and Andrew Feldman as the nerdy and over protected 19 year old Percy are brilliant. The significantly older Maddie is hired by Percy's parents to try and pickup and seduce Percy before he goes to Princeton. Her OTT attempts are very funny and often end up with hilarious results. There are very touching moments too without getting over sentimental. The film isn't complicated or over long. It is just a great piece of fun entertainment that will leave a smile on your face at the end.

Firstly I have to say that, overall, I did enjoy this film. However, after reading some of the reviews I was expecting my sides to be splitting within minutes of starting to watch. They weren't. It takes more than someone being loud, spouting expletives and family arguments to make me laugh. Consequently I found the first 20 minutes or so pretty boring and almost gave up. Once the baddies turned up I started to find it more interesting and mildly amusing. Mark Hamill's character and the Russian girl in particular saved the film for me. So, in summary, this was a light hearted action movie that took a while to get going, but in the end I did feel that I had been entertained.

I've just finished watching "Something in the Dirt". Now, I like sci-fi films, they are my favourite, and I loved the X-Files, but in my opinion this is less about sci-fi and more about the relationship between two guys, which I found totally boring because even that wasn't convincing. As for the comedy aspect, I think I smiled once at a mispronounciation somewhere in the middle. I don't know what the aim of the film was but, if there was one, it went way over my head. As a piece of entertainment it completely missed the mark for me. A complete waste of two hours in my opinion.

I very rarely write reviews but I found M3GAN hugely entertaining. It's not your typical "possessed toy" film, more of a "be careful how you program AI" film. Many of the human characters are a waste of oxygen, and M3GAN seems to have more empathy than most, so I found myself rooting for ME3GAN throughout most of the film. OK, it's fairly predictable, but I found it an entertaining and satisfying watch.

This is the first time I have ever written a film review. I was inspired to watch the film because I was intrigued by other reviews. I love sci-fi so I thought I would give it a go. It starts off very low key, then gets weird and stays weird without ever really going anywhere. It just seemed like it was two scientists who had gone loopy in the woods but you never find out why. I kept waiting for the great revelation but it never came. And the budget must have been less than 10 quid! Maybe I have missed the point but for me this was definitely a complete waste of 105 minutes for me.
