If you’re the one person not sitting in to watch Game Of Thrones (again?) tonight…

Yep, if you’re not watching Game Of Thrones (which we’ve reviewed right here), then you might be surprised to learn that there are alternative ways to spend your Monday evening.

You could head to the cinema to check out some of the new releases (which we’ve reviewed in full right here), or you could enjoy one of these movies on TV tonight instead:

MONDAY 15 APRIL

Rocky Balboa – ITV4 – 7pm

The quite good reboot that involved a long-retired Rocky, but before we got the quite good Creed movies, which also involved a long-retired Rocky, except this one finds him actually getting back into the ring, against pretty much EVERYONE’S advice.

Step Brothers – Sky One – 8pm

Will Ferrell. John C. Reilly. Infinitely quotable.

The Big Lebowski – TG4 – 9.30pm

Jeff Bridges. John Goodman. Somehow, even more infinitely quotable.

Bad Neighbours 2 – FilmFour – 10pm

The clever sequel takes the funny “Young V Old” neighbours concept of the original, and gives it a gender twist, by making Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne’s new next-door folk a sorority of college girls, who don’t play as nice as the frat house that was there before. Zac Efron is back to help bring them down from the inside, but sorority head Chloe Grace Moretz is more than his match here.

Flightplan – ITV4 – 10.20pm

Jodie Foster is travelling overnight on a long flight from Germany to America, with her daughter, and the remains of her recently deceased husband. Waking up mid-flight, she discovers that her daughter is missing, and that nobody on board remembers her ever being there. Is Jodie losing her mind? Or is there a conspiracy afoot? You’ll have to watch to find out.
