Default Name me ten good films to see.

1. Recent ie 2008-2010
2. I have average taste, action films, good story, decent rom-coms
3. Have seen most of the blockbusters so you may have to try a bit harder.

Taken (2009 Film I think, should be availble from Blockbuster ;-)

If you like the Bourne films then this is your cup of tea.

I watched a fil the other day,its 2005 but hilariously funny.

Its called Komodo vs Cobra. Its about a giant komodo and a giant cobra. It really is that bad, but so funny.

In one scene a man actaully fires about 60 rounds from a hand gun without re-loading.

Few fit girls in it though :Norty:
