Some good choices here tonight if you're staying in.

The weather is ... a bit of a mixed bag lately. So the safest option is probably to just chill on the couch and throw on a movie. Here's what we're dealing with tonight: Rocky IV - 8pm - ITV Four The best one. Taken - 9pm - Channel Four  Very particular set of skills etc. Friends With Benefits - 9pm - Comedy Central  Two beautiful people (Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake) see whether or not they can actually survive as, you guessed it, friends with benefits. It's decent. Baywatch - 9pm - E4 Even more beautiful people (Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, Alexandra Daddario and Priyanka Chopra), running very slowly on a beach. Jurassic World - 9.15pm -RTÉ One  Decades on from the creation of Jurassic Park, a fully operational attraction filled with genetically engineered dinosaurs has been opened on the island. Asking for trouble, really. The Wedding Planner - 9.20pm - RTÉ Two Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey star in this very wholesome rom-com. Guardians of the Galaxy - 10.20pm - BBC One One of the best films from the MCU, which is really saying something considering they make up some of the biggest movies of all time. Cool Hand Luke - 10.20pm - TG4 An all-time classic that still holds up over 50 years after its release. It also features one of the best opening lines of any movie ever - "What we've got here is failure to communicate."
