Red Lights - Worth it, just for the actors
Red Lights is about a team of professional sceptics, aka Cillian Murphy and Sigourney Weaver, who go around `debunking' supposed psychic and supernatural occurances (think Sculley from the X-files, but without the oversize flashlight and shoulderpads).

Red Lights is certainly not the best film in the world, but it's different. I can't think of many other films that cover similar topics. And, of course you have the three big leads who elevate it to something higher than just a B-movie.
There are some twists and turns in the plot (one of which I saw coming, one I didn't) and I won't give those away. However, based on what I've read from other people on the internet after watching it, whether you approve of the `twists' will ultimately determine your enjoyment of the film. I guess it's a case of you have to watch the film to find out whether you'll like it or not.
I thought it was good. Not great, but solid enough to be enjoyable.
7/10 if I woke up on Groundhog Day and had to watch this again, I could live with that
