I just did something I don't like doing and haven't done for years - walked out of a film because it was so bad.

Boring, wordy, self indulgent, uninspired - after an hour of clever makeup and "artistic" shots, I gave up and left.

Daniel Day Lewis? Terrible. A caricature with no life in Lincoln at all. Tommy Lee Jones? Looked great. Terrific makeup. Bad lines. One dimensional.

Hey compared to Argo or Life of Pi? Forget it; no contest.

Stephen Spielberg, what on earth has gone wrong? I loved his early films. ET? Close Encounters? Dual? Genius.

Everyone else hated Empire of the Sun and The Color Purple. I loved them.

Warhorse? Dreadful. And Lincoln. Unspeakably bad. 60 minutes of my life wasted; at least I gave up.

Life of Pi was even worse - how I longed for a tsunami.

The CGI has put me of the Life of PI, Warhorse was overrated and Lincoln same old biopic.
