Sunday
Super Bowl Sunday, don’t you know.
You might well be staying up to watch the Rams and Patriots do battle.
You might have no love whatsoever for American football.
In any event, there’s a rake of movies on the television between now – and even during – then on this Sunday 3 February, so let’s run ’em down, shall we?
Home Alone – Film 4 – 6.55pm
Because it’s not just for Christmas.
22 Jump Street – Comedy Central – 9pm
Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill back at it.
Bad Neighbours – Channel 4 – 9pm
Cool dude Zac Efron upsets Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne when he moves in next door and begins throwing raucous parties. They do their best to fire back with predictably wacky results.
Broken City – E4 – 9pm
Private investigator Mark Wahlberg faces off against New York City mayor Russell Crowe in a movie that stopped just short of being a box office bomb.
Will you show it love on the small screen?
The Ghost – ITV4 – 11pm
Ewan McGregor plays a ghostwriter hired to finish the autobiography of Pierce Brosnan’s former UK Prime Minister, a job he takes on despite some dark omens of what’s to come.
A decent if sometimes silly conspiracy thriller, rather perfect for a Sunday evening.
Last Man Standing – TCM – 11pm
Bruce Willis and Christopher Walken get violent, western-style.
Demolition – Channel 4 – 12.15am
Jake Gyllenhaal literally tears down his life brick by brick and looks to rebuild following the untimely death of his wife in this comedy-drama.
