Did you notice how it was the women who kept on pressing the button and so fcuking up everyone's life. Why they might as well just said all the world's problems happen cause women are all money grabbing feckers

YES! It was horribly obvious too, I was very surprised that it was put like that,

if it was a comedy you'd think "oh yeah the
y're having a stab at women" but it wasn't and it would make you wonder just how sexist is Hollywood.

Women. :rolleyes:

I watched 'The other boleyn girl' - which was crap. Terrible casting, story and it was just like a bad American made for tv movie.

And 'Last Days' it was surprisingly good, and very hard to describe... beautiful, sad, confusing, disturbing, hard to watch and eerie. It's wonderfully directed and shot.

Let the right one in was awesome, reminiscent of the shining in atmosphere I thought. A nice change from the usual blockbuster vamp film.

Public Enemies I was disappointed with, I really liked Marion Cotillard and Depp was quite good, but Christian Bale was way over the top.

Just found him underwhelming to be honest. In fact the whole movie was.

Maybe Bale should do a comedy...

I watched Black Dynamite last night - 'twas good enough fun! There's a bit where the title character has a nun chuk and he's swinging it around, then seems to lose it and another drops into his hand outta nowehere ha ha ha

Presumably he means THE Mask.

yes...

Anyways, I watched American Pie Presents: The Book of Love last night. This could quite possible be the worst film ever. Certainly the worst I have seen since American Pie Presents: Betahouse

Mal-Adjusted · 11-12-2009 1:12am

just got back from "Law Abiding Citizen" holy crap! this was a great film, really intense. just to know that

anyone, at any-time can suddenly die a horrible gruesome death!:(

Colm Meany's american accent comes and goes though.

ok mr. tetchy, was only a joke. I look for any reason to bring up Mask the Rocky Dennis story.

Didnt liek it for 2 reasons... Dont like Eric Stoltz as an actor! doesn have any presence or viseral projection. and reason number 2... the hole 80's cliched bracket it had was just a bummer of cheese!

Batman begins. Not bad I must say but still think the original is the best.

jimmy_D_ · 11-12-2009 12:10pm

In the last week or so i have watched: Inglourious Basterds-the most historically inaccurate movie I have ever seen but feckin brilliant:D I Love You Man that bromance one with Paul Rudd thought it was actually pretty funny, Inside-one of the best french horror films I have ever seen, Trick r Treat-loved it loved it loved it! And last but certainly not least Up-what a great movie! Tonight thinking Last House on the Left I love time off!:D

HereticPrincess · 11-12-2009 12:29pm

I watched 'Chocolate' again recently.
It's amazing, I'd totally recommend it.

It's the girl that was trained by Tony Jaa.

Watch it

ScumLord · 11-12-2009 12:33pm

Black devil doll, I thought with a name like that it must be good but it was far from good.

Watched Inglourious Basterds last night. Really liked it. Very surprised as I aint a Tarantino fan.

Gonna try watch Terminator Salvation over next few days. Want to see (hear) it in English.

thats what drugs does to you. Eric Stoltz by the way not Jim Carrey. and talking bout his onscreen role in Pulp fiction!

Wreck · 11-12-2009 4:00pm

Watched Harry Brown last night, pretty good, although the whole film can be summed up as

old soldier kill loads of people just so he doesn't have to walk the long way round

. Also, thought the plot twist with

the barman being the kid's uncle

was too neat, could have been foreshadowed a bit at least. Overall it's pretty enjoyable though.

mike65 · 14-12-2009 12:15am

Vault of Horror, good fun. As with all portmanteau films you have the advantage of knowing if the current story is boring there will be another one along shortly. That said they all work to a degree while being quite hokey but thats part of the entertainment.

Carcharodon · 14-12-2009 7:41pm

Watched King of Kong last night, was meaning to watch it for ages but never got around to it, have to say I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed it. It was more like a mockumentary, really made me laugh and cringe.
Well made movie.

MetalDawg · 15-12-2009 3:27am

Watched Blade Runner last night for first time in a couple of years. wonderful movie. Cant praise it enough. I just love it.

Spiritoftheseventies · 15-12-2009 9:43am

tried to watch fifty dead man walking, story about an informer, last night. But gave up after ten minutes.

That_Guy · 15-12-2009 12:29pm

Body Of Lies:

It started off ok I think but I felt that it was a bit drawn out. Really wasn't as good as I was expecting it to be. Leonardo Di Caprio is very good in it though. I never really rated him as an actor until I started watching some of his other films.

Paul Blart: Mall Cop:

Just avoid this sh*t like the plague. Absolutely dreadful stuff altogether.

KungPao · 16-12-2009 5:08am

Watched Bad Santa on sunday night, pretty good flick. It's suprising sometimes just how bad and cruel he is though, I felt for the poor kid!:(

I felt even worse watching the scenes with Bernie Mac and John Ritter. It is not even an old film but these guys are dead now. I always liked John Ritter, he was great in 'It'...and Problem Child!

Billy Bob was really good as the hard-drinking, thieving, womanizing and generally horrible Santa Claus.

Spiritoftheseventies · 16-12-2009 10:48am

anyone want to recommend any "really" good christmas movies on tv over the festive season.
