I've got to own up; I haven't seen this yet. So I'd better rectify that as soon as possible, otherwise I'll be missing out on a chunk of modern culture. And Russell Crowe's muscles.

My absolute favourite film of all time. I've seen it so many times I know most of the script by heart, but I'll never get bored with it. Rutger Hauer and Harrison Ford are amazing in it.

I haven't seen this yet, so I don't know whether I'll like it or not. Christian Bale's in it, and I've got a silly girlish crush on him at the moment (despite being a thirty-something).
