It's Friday. Friday. Gotta watch a movie on Friday.

Unless of course you'd rather watch The Late Late Show (the lineup is quite good in fairness). Here are the best movies on TV tonight: The Bourne Identity - 9pm - Virgin Media One The first of the Bourne films, where Matt Damon is willing to go to great lengths to figure out who he really is. Rocky - 9pm - TCM  The movie that launched one of the biggest sporting movie franchises ever, and perhaps the greatest underdog story of all time. Ghostbusters - 9pm - E4 The female reboot of the iconic film, that appears to be on the TV twice a week at this stage. The Hangover: Part III - 9pm - ITV 2 Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms, Zach Galifianakis are going on a mad one for the third time. Funny, if not a little bit dated. Unless - 9.40pm - RTÉ 2 A drama based on the novel by Carol Shields, about a writer who struggles with her daughter's decision to drop out of college and live on the streets. Mermaids - 10.35pm - RTÉ One Cher, Winona Ryder, Bob Hoskins and Christina Ricci. What else do you need? Sausage Party - 11.20pm - Comedy Central  Animated comedy featuring the voice of Seth Rogen that is NOT FOR KIDS. I repeat, NOT FOR KIDS. Get On Up - 11.30pm - Channel 4 A biopic about the life of soul legend James Brown starring the late, great Chadwick Boseman. Absolutely worth a watch if you've never seen it.
