Film 319/365, Day 338/365 – X-Men: The Last Stand

Too many characters and not enough substance.  This is definitely the worst of the three X-Men films, the story is nowhere near as strong as the previous two.  It would appear that what happened to the third Austin Powers film has happened here, where they have tried to accommodate everyone that wanted to be involved at the expense of the story.

Synopsis:  A cure for mutations has been developed and the government are looking to eradicate mutations and Magneto is determined not to allow that to happen.  Also Jean Grey has returned from the dead and isn’t acting like herself.

Film 232/365, Day 247/365 – Toy Story 2

This will always be a fun film to watch.  Anyone that can sit there and say that they don’t like Toy Story is lying!  The idea that toys are alive and have adventures when you aren’t around is excellent.  The characters are brilliant and the new ones just add to the fun.  Guaranteed good time.

Synopsis:  There is a buzz of excitement in Andy’s bedroom, Woody is looking forward to going on Cowboy camp for some one on one time with Andy.  When a rescue attempt ends with Woody being stolen by a collector the rest of the gang go out into the open to try to rescue Woody.  But will he want to be rescued?
