It's Tuesday.

And it's grim out there, folks. All these Government announcements and restrictions sure can make the 'ol head spin. Shut it all down for an hour or three with a movie or two, you say? Great idea. Here's the most intriguing options on the box on Tuesday, 16 November...

Finding Your Feet – Film4 – 9pm

Spiky UK romantic comedy in which an upper-class woman is forced to slum it after she discovers that her husband is having an affair.

Swordfish – Turner Classic Movies / TCM – 9pm

A ridiculous turn-of-the-century film that features John Travolta – as an evil cyber-terrorist sporting one of the worst haircuts of his entire career – going up against Hugh Jackman's frosted-tipped super-hacker. Seriously, this is a ludicrous movie. And thus, it's our chief recommend tonight!

The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King – Sky Showcase – 9pm

The third one.

Sudden Death – ITV4 – 10pm

A perfectly acceptable Die Hard knock-off finds humble security guard Jean-Claude Van Damme attempting to fend off ruthless bad guys at an ice hockey game.

Full Metal Jacket – TCM – 11.10pm

War is indeed hell in Stanley Kubrick's acclaimed two-hander.

Bad Neighbours 2 – Film4 – 11.15pm

Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne deal, once more, with a difficult neighbour situation.
