With the nights drawing in and the weather getting colder I bet your looking for something to pass the time. Well here are just a few of the events happening this weekend in Norfolk to keep you busy.

If you want to stay indoors and love your action films then Taken 2 (12A) could be the best option for you. This second outing for Liam Neeson's former CIA operative Bryan Mills, sees him losing another member of his family, careless I know, to a father wanting revenge for the son he killed in the first film. In true Taken style Neeson kicks his way through Turkey in an attempt to re-cover his ex-wife.

If action films aren't your cup of tea then The Perks of Being a Wallflower (12A) is the perfect chick flick. Set in early 1990s Pittsburgh, we follow Logan Lerman as Charlie, as he deals with being an outcast at high school. He then meets Emma Watson's free-spirited Sam who attempts to bring him out of his shell and start to enjoy life. Even though my high school years seemed less exciting and eventful, this film captures those years where life seems less and less rosy on the path to adulthood.

On Sunday get into Jazz at the Milestones Jazz Club in Lowestoft with the return of Trish Clowe's Tangent. Trish Clowes, who is both a saxophonist and a composer will play her original material which takes elements from both contemporary and modern jazz which highlights her talent as a musician. Trish and her equally as talented band who she jams along with are playing at Hotel Hatfield, Esplanade. Doors open at 8pm and tickets cost �7, �6 concs. 01502 568684.
