As promised, here's the first few reviews of films I picked out before.

Son of Rambow.

Firstly, here's what I sent to Pugwash Magazine (in case it didn't make it) The '80s are back. Everybody’s copying, remaking or referencing something that was popular back then. There’s the recent Die Hard sequel, the Transformers movie and Sly Stallone's resurrected both his Rocky and Rambo characters. Amongst all this, Son of Rambow hit our screens last week.Like 'Be Kind, Rewind', a film still inspiring homemade homages, Son of Rambow follows two friends as they make their own sequel to Rambo: First Blood.
Will Proudfoot, a shy, creative boy held back by his strict religious family, meets Lee Carter, the school's craftiest trouble-maker – and they agree to enter ScreenTest, a BBC kids competition. Together these different kids embark on an adventure to rival Rambo's - there's violence, a cool French exchange kid, space dust and coke-fuelled common room dancing, fun with high pressure water and high voltage electricity and plenty of jumping in lakes and off trees.
Full of don't-try-this-at-home hijinks, Will and Lee run around fighting ninjas and flying dogs as they film Will’s odd script.
Laugh-out-loud family fun, with nostalgia for parents and plenty of drama, comedy and action for everyone. 4 out of 5.

It was better than that heavily self-edited nonsense makes out.

Strange Wilderness. Not on the to-watchlist, but funny/gross nevertheless. I'd have liked it better if there were more/any frat-packers, but Jonah Hill as a patriotic, confused redneck is always funny. It is the story of the makers of a failing wildlife programme who go off in search of Bigfoot. It gives new meaning to the phrase 'turkey gobble'.

21. Card sharp blackjack movie starring Jim Sturgess (Across The Universe) as the new recruit to a card-counting team of MIT students. Kevin Spacey plays their lecturer turned hustler, with Laurence Fishburne as the soon to be obsolete security expert on their tail.

I thought this was great. It has maths to discuss and everything! If that doesn't convince you,and it wasn't my favourite part, then perhaps the prospect of Kate Bosworth (Superman Returns)in a number of sexy outfits (and accents) will sway you.

More movies when I've seen 'em. Wanna see these? I saw them at Vue Portsmouth (there's practically nowhere else).

With the excellent Skins and Shameless finishing this week, and BBC2 teasing us with the new series of Heroes, I thought it was time for a TV Blog.

Skins first. Another great series from the young team, who seem to be able to cast all the funniest comedy actors the UK has to offer. Bill Bailey and Mark Heap were excellent as various dads, shame they never met onscreen.

SKINS NEWS: All the massive group of friends that form the central cast of Skins - Sid, Cassie, Tony etc. - are to be replaced for the next series, with auditions already happening in London. Only Effie (Tony's sister) is staying, and with the auditions asking for 16 & 17 year olds, it looks like we'll be going back to the start of six form/college. Having already been drugged and having nursed her brother back to health following the bus crash of series 1, what on Earth could Effie get up to next?

Shameless. I'd never seen this before and I loved it. Everyone at home did, consistently laugh out loud funny.

Bones. SkyOne's best forensic dramedy (oh yeah I did that!). Back the other week, we've already had the kiss that the Sky magazine was teasing us about, as the team try to catch various evil-doers, especially The Gormogon killer.

Doctor Who & Torchwood. A much improved second series of TW has finished, with the latest series of DW starting a few weeks ago. The first ep of DW was a bit silly, but the second saw some good character development. Roll on the Ood!

Heroes. BBC2's Torchwood-shaped filler (an expensive one mind you) is back on from next Thursday. With reports that the first few eps aren't up to scratch but that it improves soon enough, just give it a little time if it disappoints. It won't though.

MORE NEWS: Charlie Brooker, BBC Four's cranky TV grumpus, is going to write a horror series for digital channel E4. Click here for the BBC's story. Channel Four seems to know less about it than the Beeb, but then they do keep Charlie in a cupboard full of TV's for most of the autumn, so they probably got it out of him through the inhumane use of I'd Do Anything.

And Finally. ITV has some stuff worth watching too. Other than crime drama, which they do quite well, they've got Headcases. A great reason to try out ITV's catch-up service, this is Spitting Image for the digital age. Everyone from Gordon Brown to Katie and Peter get done over (metaphorically). It’s funny 'cos its too close to the truth.

P.S. Feel free to comment on any of my blogs. If I’m not mistaken, there's a few hundred of you out there who read this rubbish, so you must have something to say.
