I agree with Demdike's view of The Shallows – it's a gripping and visceral film with an outstanding central performance from Blake Lively and superb visual effects. They are both overdue a rewatch, so perhaps suitable viewing for a double bill this weekend.

Unleashed. 2005. A mobster has a man Danny trained to be like a dog and fight when he removes a collar, Danny has a change of heart after car crash and goes in search of a blind man he once met. A trained prize pit bull fighter in the form of a man played Jet Li and owned by mobster Bob Hoskins working in and around Glasgow and if his clients don't pay up he unleashes his dog. Morgan Freeman plays the blind piano tuner Sam living with his step-daughter Victoria played by Kerry Condor and they both show Danny how life should be with the help of music. Although there is good fights scenes that are greatly choreographed and well executed with a three on one pool fight with Scott Adkins almost having his ass handed to him, there is also a nice bit of drama of discovering who you actually are and re-connecting with life. From start to finish the acting has always been good, a film that I have grown fond of. 512lIJpCV8L._AC_SY445_.jpg

MV5BMjU0YjBkOTEtNTVhNy00MDllLTkyNzktYzdhYTJmOGI5NWQ3XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTQxNzMzNDI@._V1_FMjpg_UX100.jpg The host of a game show that gives prison inmates the chance to win prizes for their families or get executed live on tv is one of the most hated people in town. When a hitman shows up to the office a very unlikely team up is on the cards when the number one critic of the show must band together with the host to save both their lives when she is caught up in the hit. I was hoping for a low budget Running man but what i got was a very very poor wannabe comedy. I didn't even smile once honestly it was more annoying than anything else and of the kills on the show were never shown the music was irritating throughout i wasnt too concerned with the bad acting i wasn't expecting anything else. I like stupid films i can have fun with them but this was too stupid even for me.
