The Mighty Ducks (1992) - Stephen Herek

Utter shit. I'm not even going to review the other two films that I was forced by my flatmates to watch in a double bill, because they were equally poor: D2: The Mighty Ducks (1994) - Sam Weisman or D3: The Mighty Ducks (1996) - Robert Lieberman. This was awful. Just so awful.

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013) - Adam McKay

It was good, but it makes me wonder when Adam McKay and Will Ferrell are going to complete their 'average American man' trilogy.
Not as good as the original, but still some big laugh out loud moments.

Streetcar Named Desire (1951) - Elia Kazan

Marlon Brando.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) - Ben Stiller

I am told this hasn't been finished being edited, so I wonder what else could be in store for viewers, when the release date is on Boxing Day over here in the UK. It looked finished to me, it was entertaining, and Ben and Kristen Wiig are perfectly matched as a bit of an odd couple, in a nice way.
The David Bowie references also shined out of the otherwise average film. It was entertaining, but not something I would watch again, even if it was properly edited.
