Punch-Drunk Love which was the 99p special on iTunes. I was totally prepared for a dud. Not so. It is a peculiar but involving movie for no particular reason that I can fathom - is it the acting which was good? The script which was clever? How the movies was directed which was pretty nifty?

Watch it.
Skyfall - the long awaited return of James Bond played by an ageing Daniel Craig. What a great yarn.

It was a good yarn featuring Istanbul, a favourite city, lots of London skyline stuff together with Shanghai and Macau both of which shone like jewels, definitely come hither looking places! If my eyes did not deceive me the supposed entrance to a Shanghai skyscraper was none other than Broadgate Tower in dear old London! For a 007 movie it was good and a tad different. A must see?
