I'm going to blockbuster and could do with a film recommendation to watch tonight. Any will do (horror, action, comedy) as long as it is worth watching

Not sure of your preferences, but watched the Ring 0 (Japanese) last night, excellent film! Another Japanese film worth a look is Dark Water...

For something lighter, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is pretty good.

Garden State, Closer or 21 Grams

Collateral if you haven't seen that, it's amazingly good.

I've just watched Are We There Yet? with Ice Cube in it!
I thought it was brilliant for a kids film.
Highly recommended.

Also Hotel Rwanda looks good from what I've seen and heard, not seen it yet though so I couldnt comment further.

And the missus swears blind that the Magic Roundabout is a 'really good film'.. no thanks says I, but whatever floats your boat I suppose :)

Also my recommendations:

Harold & Kumar - brilliant film.
Constantine - Alright for a night in.
Blade Trinity - Alright.
Troy - Excellent.

No, it was on the Cinema way back in May.

I know cos I went to see it at the UGC.

It was quite a bit better than I was expecting to be honest, cool 70s soundtrack, decent animation, and Robbie Williams's voice as Dougal was only mildly annoying :D

Dead Man Shoes. Best British film I've seen for as long as I can remember.

Have to take issue with the person who recommended Blade Trinity- it's rubbish! Surely you see that?

I'd recommend Shiri, a good Korean action film. Failing that, Zatoichi is pretty good, if period Japanese sword fighting films are more your thing.
