A Hard Day
We saw this film a few weeks ago. It is much better than we expected. The story is really good and the acting is great. 4/5 stars, very entertaining.
Force Majeure
Fantastic film, One of the best we have seen this year. It reminds me of the film "Ordinary People" because of the great acting and psychology. 5/5 stars, highly recommended.

Apollo 13
Wow! I am so thrilled my daughter had to watch this film for homework from school. We watched it again with her and it was just as awesome, 5/5 stars.
"With all due respect, sir. I believe this is gonna be our finest hour."
"Well, gentlemen, I suggest you find a way to put a square peg in a round hole -- rapidly."
"If they could make a washing machine fly, Jimmy could land it."
"Failure is not an option."
Empire of Light
The thrilling conclusion to the Schoal trilogy is as good as the first two, with a bit too much deus est machina and an odd introduction of yet another ancient power with its own motivation. Still awesome, though 4/5 stars. The English title is "Empire of Light."
Nova War
I really enjoyed Gary Gibson's "Schoal" books. It is fun, action-packed space opera, complete with mysterious ancient powers and brilliant, manipulative aliens. 4/5 stars.
