Took the boys to see Transformers Sunday night. We liked it. Action packed and some pretty spiffy cars. yes, that's right , I like cars! Smile

I think I salivated too much over one of the trucks featured in the film. Oh it was yummy!!! Would love one for myself.
It's definitely a must buy when it comes out on DVD, Gabe insists.

Stormbreaker.....brilliant!!!

Plot
Alex Rider (Alex Pettyfer) is a fourteen year-old orphan, who lives with his uncle Ian Rider (Ewan McGregor) and their housekeeper Jack Starbright (Alicia Silverstone). Ian is supposedly a bank manager and is, much to Alex's regret, often away from home. One day Alex is told that his uncle has died in a car crash. Alex discovers that Ian Rider was in fact a spy working for MI6 and that he was killed by famed assassin, Yassen Gregorovich (Damian Lewis).

He is then recruited by his uncle's former employers, Alan Blunt (Bill Nighy) and Tulip Jones (Sophie Okonedo) of the Special Operations Division of MI6, who explain to Alex that his uncle has been training him as a spy; Alex first refuses to co-operate but agrees when they threaten to prosecute Jack (now his guardian) for being an illegal immigrant. Alex is then sent to a training camp where his fellow trainees first look down on him because of his young age, but he soon gains respect for his capabilities.

He sets off on his first mission, aided by gadgets from Smithers (Stephen Fry). Billionaire Darrius Sayle (Mickey Rourke) is donating a free high-powered computer system codenamed Stormbreaker to every school in the United Kingdom. MI6 are curious of his seemingly generous plans and send Alex, undercover as a competition winner, to investigate. There, he meets the man himself, Sayle and his two accomplices, Mr Grin (Andy Serkis) and Nadia Vole (Missi Pyle) and is shown the Stormbreaker computer in action. Later, while Alex is having dinner with Sayle, the suspicious Vole steals Alex's phone and tracks the SIM card to his house in Chelsea, London. She goes there and finds Alex's true identity. While she is there, she starts a fight with Jack. Jack wins with the help of a blowfish, leaving Nadia to flee from the scene. Still troubled by the events, Alex sneaks out of his bedroom window to observe a midnight delivery of mysterious containers to Sayle's lair.

Alex Rider atop the rooftops of London confronting Yassen Gregorovich, the murderer of his uncle.The next day, Alex finds himself in trouble when his cover is blown. After trying to escape from the facility and being held prisoner, Alex is forced to reveal he is a spy. He then learns of Sayle's true plan with the computers - each system contains a deadly virus which wipe out the whole of Britain's schoolchildren. Sayle, before he departs for the Science Museum in London, leaves Alex to be killed by a Portuguese Man O' War. Escaping the beast (which in turn kills Nadia), Alex manages to get on a helicopter piloted by Mr Grin. He shoots an arrow into his neck, containing an obedience serum and Alex tells him to fly to London. Just as Sayle and the Prime Minister (Robbie Coltrane) are about to activate Stormbreaker, Alex appears through the roof of the museum and halts the procession.

Alex then realises Sayle has a back-up plan and with the help of Jack and school friend Sabina Pleasure (Sarah Bolger) he pursues Sayle through the streets of London. Fifty floors up on one of Sayle's skyscrapers, Alex reaches him and unplugs his backup plan. An angered Sayle chases him out onto the roof and pushes him off but Alex manages to hold onto the cable he had pulled out of the socket. Sayle is about to shoot Alex but Sabina arrives distracting him momentarily until she too is pushed off the building and left hanging off the cable. Just as Sayle is about to kill them both Yassen Gregorovich, Ian Rider's killer, arrives in a helicopter and shoots Sayle. Alex swings Sabina onto a balcony and is then rescued by Yassen who takes him to a Helipad. Alex tells Yassen that this doesn't change anything and he will never forget him.

The film ends with Alex and Sabina at their school. After the events, Sabina was forced to sign the Official Secrets Act but Alex maintains to her he is not a spy. High up on a nearby building, a cameraman focuses on Alex...

Now you don't have to see the film LOL!!!!

watched stardust the other day it is really good and worth going to see.
is out november the 2nd

Some of it was filmed in Norwich.

“Stardust,” based on the best-selling graphic novel by Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess, takes audiences on an adventure that begins in a village in England and ends up in places that exist in an imaginary world. A young man named Tristan (Charlie Cox) tries to win the heart of Victoria (Sienna Miller), the beautiful but cold object of his desire, by going on a quest to retrieve a fallen star. His journey takes him to a mysterious and forbidden land beyond the walls of his village. On his odyssey, Tristan finds the star, which has transformed into a striking girl named Yvaine (Claire Danes).

However, Tristan is not the only one seeking the star. A king’s (Peter O’Toole) four living sons – not to mention the ghosts of their three dead brothers – all need the star as they vie for the throne. Tristan must also overcome the evil witch, Lamia (Michelle Pfeiffer), who needs the star to make her young again. As Tristan battles to survive these threats, encountering a pirate named Captain Shakespeare (Robert De Niro) and a shady trader named Ferdy the Fence (Ricky Gervais) along the way, his quest changes. He must now win the heart of the star for himself as he discovers the meaning of true love.

a trailer for it!
