Good day, film fans

And that day is Friday 5 April. Every day on JOE, we put our heads together and sift through the schedules in order to bring you, our dearest readers, the best movie options available via the television screen. Sometimes, there are classics. Other times, there are underrated gems. Often, a film that is so bad it really should be classified as good. Friday is usually a good day for all of those, so let's see, shall we? The Abyss - SyFy - 9pm Trippy and occasionally terrifying underwater adventure from James Cameron. Pitch Perfect - ITV2 - 9pm Fun and upbeat comedy that spawned a sequel or two. Rocky IV - ITV4 - 9pm Cocaine: The Movie. 3:10 to Yuma - TCM - 9pm Compelling slow-burn Western with Russell Crowe and Christian Bale. The Hunger Games - E4 - 9pm Battle Royale.   Fast and Furious 6 - Film 4 - 10.55pm The one with the longest runway known to man. The Last Boy Scout - TCM - 11.35pm Wildly entertaining and violent mismatched team-up thriller with Bruce Willis, Damon Wayans and an electric script. Rain Man - BBC One - 11.55pm Cruise. Hoffman. You should know this one. Spring Breakers - Channel 4 - 12.10am Harmony Korine's neon-soaked ugly love letter to excess finds a quartet of high school girls running afoul of James Franco's comical drug dealer. Unstoppable - SyFy - 12.30am The final directorial effort from the late Tony Scott contains a few of his favourite things; a fast-paced plot, caffeinated visuals and Denzel Washington, who we'd watch in anything, in fairness.
