It’s Tuesday.

Yes, despite everything that has happened this week, it is only Tuesday.

But we have to move on with things so here’s the best movies on TV this evening.

Shanghai Noon – Comedy Central – 7pm

Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson team up in the Old Wild West to save a princess.

We won’t waste your time and tell you there’s a great plot, but there’s a lot of action and jokes from the pair of them.

Home Again – Film4 – 7.05pm

A 2017 romcom effort starting Reese Witherspoon, Michael Sheen and Candice Bergen.

Woman leaves man, finds new man, old man shows up. Chaos.

X-Men: The Last Stand – E4 – 9pm

Not the worst of the X-Men movies, but certainly not the best.

Hugh Jackman is ripped and grumpy in the third instalment of the franchise.

Been so Long – Film4 – 9pm

During a night on the town, a dedicated single mother meets a charming yet troubled stranger.

Ghost Rider – Comedy Central – 10pm

Stunt rider Johnny Blaze makes a deal with the devil.

I think we can use this movie as a reference to where Nicolas Cage stopped caring about his films.

Hot Fuzz – ITV4 – 10.05pm

A comedy action starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.

Pegg, a highly capable police officer, is transferred to a rural town with the lowest rate of crime in the United Kingdom.

But is there a sinister reason for the well behaved community?

Hint: Yes.

The Wolverine – Film4 – 11.05pm

This is probably a better X-Men movie then The Last Stand listed above. But realistically, they’re both in the bottom half of the table.
