A bloody masterpiece...

It's Blue Monday, apparently. In the immortal words of The Cure, "I don't care if Monday's blue". You know what I DO care about, though? Lots of great movies on the telly. Here's JOE's top picks for the small screen tonight.

Captain Phillips - ITV4 - 9pm

"Look at me... I am the film watcher now."

Logan - Film4 - 9pm

Our top pick for tonight is easily one of the best Marvel films ever released. In fact, calling it a Marvel film would be to do it a disservice - it's just brilliant. Hugh Jackman gives the performance of a lifetime in his final outing as Wolverine, and they really upped the ante with this one. A more adult take on the superhero genre, this film has lots of blood, gore, and an emotional centre. Must see cinema.

The Happening - Sony Movie Channel - 9pm

M Night Shyamalan combines his trademark style of horror with Mark Wahlberg.

The Death of Stalin - TG4 - 9.30pm

Stalin is dead. Hilarity ensues. We're serious, this film is gas altogether.

Alfie - Turner Classic Movies - 11.20pm

Michael Caine is a very cheeky chappy, indeed.

Oblivion - ITV4 - 11.40pm

Not an adaptation of the Elder Scrolls, unfortunately.

Loving Vincent - Film 4 - 11.45pm

65,000 oil paintings were created for this animated film about the life of Vincent Van Gogh.
