JUST GO WITH IT
Watchable. The silly and far-fetched story, interspersed with Adam Sandler droning on and on about his relationship problems, is fast-paced and provides good situation humour every now and then.

INCEPTION
Seen again. The Oscar-awarded visual effects are few and far between. The characteristic music in the whole movie sounds too repetitive. The plot is much easier to grasp the second time round though.
BLACK SWAN
Recommended again. Brilliant editing, script, acting (especially by underrated Mila Kunis). Left me shaken again.
THE KING'S SPEECH
Watchable. A disappointing, superficial film telling you that it's hard to stand the pressure of belonging to the royal family and that it can make you stammer. The speeches are just as lengthy and boring as irl. Good acting prevents viewers from falling asleep.
FIGHTER
Walked out. For boxing enthusiasts only. Made in a way that should appeal to the working class.

LIMITLESS
Recommended. I didn't expect I'd enjoy it so much but it was exactly the kind of movie I like: good twists of action, witty lines (e.g. "What have we got here? A dodgy guy I haven't seen in years is offering me a potentially dangerous untested drug... Yes, I want it."), fast-paced editing, an inventive story, references to other films (e.g. "Don't wear the same suits - it's not Matrix" or "If I worked for you, it would make you my bitch"). First-class entertainment.
