Real Steel is a very good film... Enjoyed it!

Worth a watch for sure.

Zodiac is an excellent choice, as you say, perfectly captures the era the killings were happening, pretty much as did Summer of Sam about David Berkovitz.

Not too sure of About Schmidt, thought it took ages to get going. Disappointing to watch after his previous effort, As Good As It Gets. But each to his own.

Thanks for the feedback folks. Great to hear what you thought even if it created a different response in you. There's certainly a few in the top 50 that are polarising in the feelings they generate so I'll be interested if you take a plunge on one you wouldn't normally go for.

I always seem to find it's the films that go under the radar that i enjoy the most, I watched The Matador with Pierce Brosnan and absolutely loved it.

I watched Machete this week. Balls to wall non-stop blood bath. Pretty decent cast who don't take themselves too seriously.

Highlight for me was when the house blew up and the body landed on the street with the thermometer stuck in his eyeball socket.

Went to see Paranormal Activity 3 last night.

More of the same really, some real jumpy moments. However, the big shock ending makes no sense in line with the first two films!
