    It's from 2009, slipped under my radar, called 'Triangle'

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1187064/

    It's one of those you will absolutely love or hate but it completely twisted my mind, would recommend to anyone who prefers the more left-field films as opposed to the tiresome comic book adaptations and "rom coms" that seem to fill the cinema listings these days.

    If you do watch it, don't read any spoilers or too much about the plot beforehand, I can guarantee you will wonder what the chuff is going on for the first half an hour but it does start to make sense afterwards.

    If anyone has seen it, I'd love to know what your thoughts are. I reckon ten different people could watch it and they'd all have differing thoughts on what they've just witnessed.

    Love films like this, there aren't nearly enough of them produced. It's British-made, set in Florida, but filmed in Australia!

    V for vendetta - Only saw it the other day for the first time, thought it was brilliant.

    What's to wonder about? Bird from Home and Away is trapped in an endless loop.

    Fandango (1985), great coming of age movie, Kevin Costner is in it but don't let that put you off, great soundtrack and best ever skydiving scene.
