This is more like it! I’ve been complaining these past couple of weeks about the usual January dreck filling up these Lambscores posts, but finally we’ve got at least a couple of films with positive reviews amongst them. Hurrah! Here’s what the LAMB community had to say about the new xXx movie, a biopic on the man behind McDonalds, and an M. Night Shyamalan movie that people actually like (there’s three things I never thought we’d see):

If you want to get involved, here’s how LAMBScores work: Over in the LAMB Forums there’s a sub-board called LAMBScores. If you’ve written a review or recorded a podcast on a new release, find (or create) the thread there, and leave a link to your review, along with your site name and a score out of 5. Three weeks after the film has received a wide release the reviews will be collated and posted here, as long as there are at least five.
