Viewed: Season 11

First things first... Both Lucy Decoutere (Lucy) and Jonathan Torrens (J-Roc) sat this season out, and try as the show might, it does feel a tad awkward without them. And, yes, with this being the show's eleventh season, it does seem to be getting a tad old. With this in mind, Season 11 remains surprisingly enjoyable on the whole. The cast still commit to their roles with absolute abandon, there are laughs to be had, and it's still a riot watching these boys get into all sorts of trouble. Not everything works, and we've come a long way since the brilliant initial seasons, but I'd still be down for more seasons. It's certainly far better than The Big Bang Theory. Hell, any given episode of TPB has more laughs than an entire season of TBBT.

Do you like the Raid movies, both of which have appeared on my manliest movies list for their respective years? If so, then you'll love Headshot, which features several of the same actors, and is in the same style. An Indonesian action movie, Headshot is a blast of pure adrenaline, a fast-paced buffet of shootouts and martial arts sequences which utterly blew me away. It's insanely violent, too, and some of the gore is so extreme that I was taken aback - and that doesn't happen often. This is also a story about a dude trying to rescue a chick, a good old manly chestnut (feminists need not apply). Headshot is one fucking badass movie, and men owe it to themselves to experience this awesomeness as soon as possible.

First Viewing Viewing Date: March 17th Via: Digital Plot: Two sisters, vacationing in Mexico, are trapped in a shark cage at the bottom of the ocean, with less than an hour of oxygen left and great white sharks circling nearby.

It's so relieving to see another good contemporary shark movie, one which actually had proper funding and studio involvement behind it. This isn't another shitty B-grade shark flick, but a skilfully-crafted thriller with terrific shark effects and a wonderful leading lady in Blake Lively. And it looks beautiful to boot. It does get a bit too Hollywood towards the end, but it's still a lot of fun. [youtube id=EgdxIlSuB70]
