I can't believe you have given No country for old me 5/10 - yes its a little long but I certainly didn't find it boring! But everyone is different :-)

St Trinians (new one)

Very funny IMO, and stars Louise out of Two Pints as well as Stephen Fry! 7/10.

Already pre-ordered it on DVD from Play.com.

I can't believe you have given No country for old me 5/10 - yes its a little long but I certainly didn't find it boring! But everyone is different :-)

sorry i thought it was utter garbage and the 5 is being generous.

I have now seen There Will Be Blood and I'd rate it as 'Yeah, baby, yeah!'

sorry i thought it was utter garbage and the 5 is being generous.

I'd agree with you on that!

Cloverfield 3/10 nearly as bad as transformers but with added motion sickness.

Bit too much music and not enuff funnies
Plus they didnt have no Mustard for mi Hot Dog!!!

'The Other Boleyn Girl'
Rating 9/10

Kept me interested the whole way throught the film!

Beowolf - worth watching for the bit where Ray Winston (Beowolf) says - "I've come to kill your MONSTA" as it he was about to kill an East-End gangster.

Beowolf - worth watching for the bit where Ray Winston (Beowolf) says - "I've come to kill your MONSTA" as it he was about to kill an East-End gangster.

no country for old men 9/10

Definitely Maybe 8/10!!! Sorry, but I HATED that movie.

I expected to hate it which probably helped me. It was a good rom-com nad has been on at the cinema for a good few weeks. Been off work today with sod all to do so saw the below -

Vantage Point - 7/10 (dont expect too much which helped me)
Semi-Pro 7/10 - Decent sport type comedy, seen it all before but still good.

Untraceable - 8.5/10 -

Diary of the Dead - 9/10 - some great gory deaths and the funny moments pushed it from a 8 to 9 :)

Diary of the dead.....7/10...was amusing :D

Rambo - 4/10 - Not good!

Vantage Point - 7/10

Jumper 8/10
Superbad 8/10
knocked up 9/10

The Cottage - 11/10 :P - its right funny, and its great to see a certain character killed in it :) Some swearing and lots of gore too :)

Jumper - 7/10 - mildly entertaining although the story isn't a patch on the similarly themed 'The Stars My Destination' by Alfred Bester.

This Movie Is Not Yet Rated - 9/10 - very interesting documentary about the MPAA and censorship of films in America.

Alien v Predator: Requiem, Cinema 8/10. Not bad, better than AVP1 but nowhere near Alien/s and 3 and Pred1.
Crash, TV 2nd viewing still 10/10- especially the little girl bit.
The 5th Element, TV approx 145th viewing, still 10/10. Fabulous and Fantastic.

JUmper 6/10
The Cottage 5.5/10

The Cottage 8/10..... Not laughed so much at a film in ages, entertaining:P If not a bit of a crazy ending??! But still....worth a watch! :D

national treasure.. book of secrets.. 6/10

Quinceañera - 8/10 - I loved this movie!

No Country for Old Men - 7/10 - Too much violence for me but excellent acting.

Girl with Green Eyes 7/10 - Found this old film from the '60's one night while idly flipping channels. Not bad. :)

Hot Fuzz .......9/10 for Comedy Value :D

rambo 4
9/10

Mr Brooks on dvd - again 9/10

The Cottage - 6/10. Really, it's not that funny.

I really, really, really, really want to see The Orphanage.

The Cottage - 6/10. Really, it's not that funny.

I really, really, really, really want to see The Orphanage.

Go see it then :D

Go see it then :D

Yeah, I really, really, really, really want to.

The Thing From Another World. 4/10. Dated. Badly. Also has a nasty message that the scientists are always wrong and the military policy of shoot on sight is the right way to go.

1408. 5/10. Brilliant 1st half hour (the sparring between Jackson and Cusack is terrific) gives way to a CGI/Special Effects action-fest. Cusack is one of the most interesting actors in Hollywood but he can't do anything to save this.

Knocked Up. 7/10. Half an hour too long and only intermittently funny (usually when Paul Rudd is on screen). But its got a heart of gold and the laughs are big when they do come. I have no idea why a smart and likeable actress such as Heigl has spent most of her career hidden away on tv.

The bank job 4 /10

The Cottage - 6/10. Really, it's not that funny.

I really, really, really, really want to see The Orphanage.

I really, really, really etc want to see this too!! Not showing at my cinema though by looks of things! Will have to trek to a different cineworld :(

I really, really, really etc want to see this too!! Not showing at my cinema though by looks of things! Will have to trek to a different cineworld :(

It's showing at the Sheffield one. The Showroom's got it on as well.

The Orphanage - 9/10 A cracking good film with strong direction and a slow build-up. (quick note - if you prefer your scary flicks to have gore and blood, then this may not be the film for you. In addition it is subtitled - doesn't bother me personally as I prefer foreign films to be subbed, but thought I'd put a warning there for those who will inevitably watch 10 mins then walk out)

Yeah, I really, really, really, really want to.

U want me to take yer ?:rolleyes:

U want me to take yer ?:rolleyes:

Thanks for the offer, but I'm in prison for attempted cheese grating.

Beowulf - 5/10 and this was only because the 3D was interesting. Without it the film stank.

Jumper - 6/10 Director managed to achieve mediocre from what could have beena great film. Theres more than one book so why rush it. The fleshing out of characters was poor.

This is England - 8.5/10 Loved it. Gritty, hard, funny, sad. It has everything, and anyone growing up in the 70s and 80s will relate to it.

Good bye Lenin 9/10 - Foreign cinema at its best. If you don't mind subtitles then its a great watch. Almost farcicly funny.

The Bank Job 7.5/10 (a true story based around London in 1970s)
Mr Brooks (kevin Costner) 6.5/10
Jumper- 5.5/10 (not as good as I thought)

Looking forward to Iron Man/Dark Knight and Incredible Hulk...2008

Eastern Promise. 8/10. I might have gone a little higher but the ending seemed a little rushed to me.


I'd give it 7/10, totaly agree with you about the ending.

Alien v Predator: Requiem 6.5/10 Better than i expected, but still not great.

Transformers 2/10 Garbage.

There Will Be Blood 8/10 (Day-Lewis was superb!)

The Bucket List 9/10 (Freeman/Nicholson a wonderful combination)....makes you want to make a list of your own....

The Mist (1/10) (A garbled, elongated version of a very good Stephen King novella....I'm suprised it even made it to DVD). I wasted 2 hours of my life watching this drivel....don't do it - it's even worse than "I Am Legend" and that's just a money-pumped scriptless/plotless version of 28 days later!

The Brave One - Jodie Foster, 9/10

Bank Job 6/10 Not bad to watch but instantly forgettable hence not higher score.

You, me and dupee... 5/10...bit pants!

ONCE - We watch quite a few dvds rarely do you find a gem like Once. I loved everything about this film the music is just great too. I especially loved the first scene where the busker gets his money stolen, very funny and you just kind of knew it was coming. I'll rate it 9/10 as I had to put the subtitles on for some of it but still loved it.:thumbsup:

One of the songs from the film.

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_LMv0BOKkWc

Not the last film-but there's a good film on TV now-'Cellular'...I thought it was pretty gripping the first time I saw it. 6 and three quarters out of 10.:)

The Orphanage - 8.5/10!

JUMPER -3/10

absolute pile of poo! I give it a 3 for Samuel Jacksons performance though, pretty cool as always

The Orphanage - 8.5/10!

Was just about to give it exactly the same score!! Was damn scary!!

Over Easter Weekend on T.V
Me,Myself and Irene: 9/10 Funny as **** with a brilliant soundtrack

Planes,Trains and Automobiles: 8/10 Probably the last time i remember Steve Martin being funny

Vantage Point - 6/10

The Orphanage
8/10. Gripping, tense and emotional.

Tomb Raider (the first one): 5/10 .

Entertaining and undemanding piffle, enlivened by the unexpected presence of a naked Daniel Craig and the ever lovely and perfectly cast Angelina Jolie. Nice to see Rimmer again too.

Kingdom - 6/10

Much better than I thought it would be. From the cover it looks like a dumb collection of noises aimed squarly at Max Power readers. It's actually not bad, though it is a tad predictable.

For anyone who has seen this and enjoyed it, I'd recommend the absolutely excellent Syriana.

The Cottage - 9 out of 10
brill!

"Gone Baby Gone" 9/10

Brilliant movie - flawless acting and good direction.

Condemned - 10 cons that get dumped on an island and have to kill eachother basically until there is only one left. All of which was being shown on the internet. Starring Vinnie Jones and Stone Cold Steve Austin! I quite liked it actually. Give it a generous 7.5/10, I think it was the mood on the day!

Into the Wild 9/10

Two years he walks the earth. No phone, no pool, no pets, no cigarettes. Ultimate freedom. An extremist. An aesthetic voyager whose home is the road. Escaped from Atlanta. Thou shalt not return, 'cause "the West is the best." And now after two rambling years comes the final and greatest adventure. The climactic battle to kill the false being within and victoriously conclude the spiritual pilgrimage. Ten days and nights of freight trains and hitchhiking bring him to the Great White North. No longer to be poisoned by civilization he flees, and walks alone upon the land to become lost in the wild.

Has stayed with me for weeks, life changing.

The orphange

9/10

The Cottage - 9 out of 10
brill!

I have to agree. I went to see this the other night and was pleasantly surprised by it. Really enjoyable so give it the same score as you.

I watched 50 minutes of Mr Bean's holiday last night. What a load of rubbish. 2/10.

I watched 50 minutes of Mr Bean's holiday last night. What a load of rubbish. 2/10.

Erm, damn.... I so wanted to see that film hehe.

I have to agree with you. It was just a copy of things that had been done before.

Vantage Point - 4/10. A good concept let down by a terrible plot, and nonsensical timeframes (conversations/events which take 30 seconds in one telling can last long enough for a 5 minute event to take place in another)

Mmmmm - Vantage Point. 6/10 I was moderately impressed with the style.
Step Up2 - The Street - 5/10. Exactly as you'd expect and not as good as Step Up.

I watched 50 minutes of Mr Bean's holiday last night. What a load of rubbish. 2/10.

I watched it all. I felt like a small piece of my life had been ruthlessly stolen. It was so bad i wouldn't know where to start. Is it possible that a film is so bad it gets minus figures for wasting your time.

Condemned - 10 cons that get dumped on an island and have to kill eachother basically until there is only one left. All of which was being shown on the internet. Starring Vinnie Jones and Stone Cold Steve Austin! I quite liked it actually. Give it a generous 7.5/10, I think it was the mood on the day!

Isn't that just Battle Royale (a great Janapese film) but with adults.

There will be blood - 9/10

Into the Wild 9/10

Not seen the film yet but the book is excellent.

30 Days of Night... Tripe 4/10

The Invasion... Offal 5/10

Lions for Lambs... mmmm not bad 7/10


12 Angry Men..... Genius 10/10

Son Of Rambow
Rate: 8/10 :clap:

Spiderwick Chronicles
6/10

Found it a bit boring to be honest.

American Gangster - 4/10

Painfully average and dull. Was like watching a made-for-tv film. I'm not entirely sure what accent Russell Crowe is supposed to have either...

Vantage Point - 4/10. A good concept let down by a terrible plot, and nonsensical timeframes (conversations/events which take 30 seconds in one telling can last long enough for a 5 minute event to take place in another)

That's a low scoring- I was going to watch that now don't know.

ONCE - I'll rate it 9/10 as I had to put the subtitles on for some of it but still loved it.:thumbsup:

Despite really not wanting to like it (think i overdid my Glen Hansard phase during my college years!), I was surprised by how sweet this film was! Lol at your needing subtitles tho! :D

27 DRESSES - dull dull dull! 4/10

the spiderwick chronicles 7 out of 10.

i think i enjoyed it more than the kids tho...:D

the spiderwick chronicles 7 out of 10.

i think i enjoyed it more than the kids tho...:D

Ah - I wanted to watch this on Wednesday because I couldn't see anything else that I fancied. So it's alright then!?

yeah its a great film, although my kids(4 and 7) were scared to death through some of it.

The Mist 8/10 - sticks well to the short story by Stephen King, and the extended ending works so well. King fans should love it. (those expecting gore and blood horror, however, may be disappointed)

The Bank Job - 6/10

Sawdust & Tinsel. 8/10. Lost souls trying (and failing) to escape lives that they hate.

The Ice Storm. 10/10. Lost souls trying (and failing) to find some temorary escape from lives that they hate. Masterpiece.

30 Days of Night. 5/10. Despite good pedigree this is a mess. Its basically a siege movie but commits the cardinal sin of having no tension. Probably because the Vampires are more likeable than the humans.

Hot Rod. 7/10. Absurd humour abounds in a winning tale of a young man trying to raise money for an operation for his step dad.

3:10 to Yuma(DVD) 7.5/10
The Brave One (dvd) 7/10

the Vampires are more likeable than the humans.


Usually the way, they probably have better dress sense and all the good lines too.

The Orphanage 9/10 - fantastic!

The Cottage 8/10 - very much in tone with Dog Soldiers. Had me chuckling away throughout.

27 dresses!

An unashamedly chicky flick flick with a great scene involving Benny and the Jets.:love: Both me and my mate sat there and sighed at that point- oh to meet a man like that! There is something about James Marsden when he smiles.

As a chick flick i'm giving it a 7 and a half. Definitely better than last CF I saw which was Definitely maybe.

Yes it was very much a chick flick ;)

I haven't been able to get Bennie & the Jets out of my head since! :hihi:

I'd give it a 7/10 for a chick flick.

(When did you see it?)

Last night at Cineworld. Yeah I've had Fidelity Regina Spektor going round in my head since punctuated with that!

The dress scene was quite good as well. (Reminded me of the 4 weddings &funeral one in the dress shop)

Was off work last week with poorly Munchkins. We watched Happily N'Ever After and thought it was fab (8.5/10); and Pirates of the Caribbean 3 (loved it 9/10. Didn't like the sad ending though :rolleyes:)

Has anyone seen Lars and the real girl? It's on at the showroom. Just wondered if anyone recommends it?

and Pirates of the Caribbean 3 (loved it 9/10. Didn't like the sad ending though :rolleyes:)

Did you flick to the end of the end-credits for the extra scene?

meet the spartans 1 out of 10 :gag:

Rise of the Footsoldier (DVD)

A football hooligan rises through the ranks of a feared criminal gang.
9/10:thumbsup:

Semi-Pro 6/10 - Not Ferrell's best, but certainly not as bad as his worst. Kind of fun with a few standout moments.

Severance 9/10

Severance 9/10??? It's got Danny Dyer in it, you should subtract 4 from the score just for that.

Horton Hears a Who!! 8/10 just for singing REO Speedwagon at the end!!!
The Orphanage 6/10 Dissapointing
Untracable 8/10
Vantage Point 8.5/10 great concept!!
Bank Job 8/10 great brit heist caper
Jumper 3/10
Cloverfield 9/10
Juno 8/10
Bucket List 7/10
That Australian film with the crocodile in it!! (sorry title escapes me) 9/10

Awake 7/10 - much better than expected, although a bit over-sentimental towards the end

The Bank job = 9/10
One missed call = 6/10

Saw IV = 4 I thought it was no where near as good as the others and they are dragging it on too long.

Catacombs = 1 Absolute rubbish, a woman running though catacombs lost is the whole film.

son of rambo(w) - 7.5/10

The Passions of the Christ - only to see what all the fuss was about and didn't expect to enjoy it, but did (I'm not religious so was surprised). 8/10.

Cloverfield - 5/10

Some nice touches but sadly becomes a predictable affair, with a less than impressive monster that does very little except wander about.

That said, it's better than the King Kong and Godzilla remakes.

Breach - 4/10. Only made watchable by Ryan Phillipe's handsome looks.

The Condemned - Ok for an action film, bit OTT with the violence in places, Vinny Jones is terrible, but then so is the rest of the cast. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is actually quite funny, unintentionally.

Drillbit Taylor 6.5/10

Predictable high school teen flick - with Owen Wilson playing Owen Wilson - enjoyable but dont go expecting Citizen Kane:)

True Romance for the 100th time 10/10 it is PERFECT.

In Bruge - A good comedy about two hitmen waiting in Bruges for their next orders.... Colin Farrell was very good. 6/10

Severance 9/10??? It's got Danny Dyer in it, you should subtract 4 from the score just for that.

This film was surprisingly good even with DD starring, lots of laugh out loud moments. :)

7.5/10

Cinema:
Juno - Didn't quite beat Little Miss Sunshine but Ellen Page was brill in this film. Soundtrack was quite different as well. 8.5/10

Funny Games US. 4/10 What a total let down!!! Could have been so much better!!!

The trailer to this looks crap, just because it is so unconvincing

anyway,
Awake 7/10

It is playing at Cineworld!!! Dont expect a happy ending!!! Classic Rock loved it. she said it was chilling,full of tension, post modern and different!!! If you like very art house style cinema with some very quirky moments then you might like it.

Awake 7/10


Phew, I'm glad that someone else seemed to like it. I was starting to think that watching Meet The Spartans a few weeks back has damaged my perception of good and bad films :)

Ahh so it is, good good! Just not playing at my crappy local cineworld, will have to trek to Sheff to see! The reviews have read have all been pretty good so will give it a try :) Also quite fancy watching Rec, One missed call and Pathology! Lots of cinemarage!

Son of Rambow - 7.5/10 - Nice film, quite funny and a nice story.

Definately a cinema binge on Sunday I think, I'm slacking!!

Juno 7/10

Was nice but after what I read I kinda expected more.

Shutter - A Korean chiller.... Quite good and very jumpy! 6/10

Funny Games US. 4/10 What a total let down!!! Could have been so much better!!!

I think you're being a little generous there! It just don't see what it was trying to achieve. That bit with the remote really annoyed me, how they thought they could get away with putting a piece of stylised work in an otherwise natralistic film is beyond me. I'd give it a 2/10!

The idea behind it is to illustrate that 'real life' isn't like that. Which is pretty patronising.

On a side note I think the director is terrific at building tension and fleshing out realistic characters, but he constantly destroys all his good work with heavy handed moralising. He just doesn't give the audience enough credit or respect.

I agree with most of what you said there but I don't feel he did a very good job of building up tension at all. We knew what was going to happen, I felt myself thinking 'just get on with it' which is something that should never really happen. Some of the scenes lasted a good 10 or 15 minutes with absolutley nothing happening. The film was also painfully predictable.

The Orphanage 7/10.

Still harvesting my fingernails from the cinema seat infront.

I watched Hallam Foe last night. (Starring Jamie Bell of Billy Elliott fame). It was ok but one of those brit flicks that would have been a two part series on ITV if they hadn't got some big names to act in it.... 5/10.

I know what you mean about the TV series, however I thought it was pretty good when I saw it in the cinema. I'd go for 7/10 for it!

Jamie Bell was good in it though. I did laugh when he went back home dressed as a wild badger. (That is not a spoiler by the way peeps).

A Very Long Engagement. Simply stunning, beautful film. 10/10.

I wholeheartedly agree :)


Tonght myself and a couple of mates immersed ourselves in Pan's Labyrinth (bluray with surround), and Hellboy (it was a delToro double bill). Both fantastic films! 10/10 and 9/10 respectively.

Next film night will see City of Lost Children and Delicatessen....I can't wait!

High School Musical and High School Musical2 9/10.

A bit embarrased to admit this but I watched both of these last night and loved them both.:blush:

Rise of the foot soldier - 10/10
Brilliant film!!!!

You and your mates have great taste in films. I wish I could get mine to watch those kind of film.


Last film I saw was Rescue Dawn (Christian Bale) which I'd give 7.5/10. Next up will be Welcome To Dongmakgol

Quick update:

One missed call... 2/10 and thats only because it made me laugh!! Made the same mistake as did when watching 'The Return', in thinking that it can't be so crap for no reason, there will be a fabulous twist at the end...sadly not!

[Rec] ... 5/10 Was oki..came out and wasn't sure if had actually enjoyed it or not, but again it entertained me and the story was ok until near the end, but not a bad watch anywho :)

Went to see "Never Back Down" last night at the Trafford Center, (wanted to see Pathology but was heavily outnumbered!), and was surprised! I thought it would be boring and pretty mind numbing but i actually really really enjoyed it :) 9/10!

Awake - 7/10 - Started off really dull and I could see it being pretty dire all the way through, then it suddenly becomes quite a good film with a twist I didn't see coming!

[REC] - 5/10 - Spanish language zombie film, shot in amateur kind of way (like Cloverfield). A bit too "seen it all before" for me, but I'm not a fan of zombie films really.

One missed call - 5/10
Hitman (dvd) 7/10

Awake 8/10 - same comments as Fishy really!

In Bruges - 9/10 - sooooo funny! Bit of a change seeing Colin do that too.

I'm supposed to be going to see [REC] tomorrow... The reviews aren't as good as I'd hoped on here.....Does it have lots of jumpy scenes in it??

It was ok, a little jumpy but I didn't rate the film really.

Leatherheads 5/10 Not my sort of film really although i did like the costumes and make up. About American football. Funny snippets but the subject matter was a bit boring. Reminded me of a league of their own...(Madonna film) with a big of 20's screwball comedy chucked in.

The Bank Job - Not the sort of film you see Jason Statham in too often...as in...its quite good - 7/10!!

Untraceable - I enjoyed this one - heard some mixed reviews but its a pretty good thriller and I bet you end up trying the website out to see if its real! 7/10

Cloverfield - Utter, utter, utter (did I mention utter) garbage! 0/10

Awake 8.5/10 slow start but really builds into a great thriller

[Rec] 8/10 a mix between Cloverfield and Blair Witch......Starts slow to set the scene but once it starts it don't stop!!! lots of jumps, some gore and tension make for a good zombie film. A fair bit of reading as it is subtitled but very good. See it at Cineworld as it is in the screen with the comfy seats!!!! :)

Cloverfield 5.5/10 - Unbelievable how a gimmick will make people forget the overall result is the film is poor.

Rear Window (1954) 8.5/10 Just gets better with age, what a film! ;)

30 Days of Night 4.5/10 Hyped vampire flick, more dumb characters anyone?

Notes on a Scandal. 7/10. Really well written and acted. Very dramatic, but a little thin in the last third.

Really want to see [red], the 8/10 may have swung it for me. Ta.

Straightheads (crap!) 4/10

21 - 9/10 .

I'm supposed to be going to see [REC] tomorrow... The reviews aren't as good as I'd hoped on here.....Does it have lots of jumpy scenes in it??

I don't think they make good horror films aymore

Atonement. I cried.

Loved James McAvoy but spent a lot of time shouting "Eat some bloody pies you skinny tart" at the screen.

7/10

I don't think they make good horror films aymore

I've been to see [REC] finally. The realisism of the camera crew following the fire brigade round for the night really added to the tension. Once the film got going there were loads of scary scenes that made me jump. Well worth watching! 7/10.

Best In Show: Hilarious! 9.5/10 :D

shine a light 5/10 - i thought there would have a lot more backstage footage of the rolling stones, not just small clips of old interviews after every 4 songs. I also think they should have recorded one of the bigger stadium concerts. I was expecting something as good as U2 3D but it just wasn't that good.

With regards to [REC], sadly there is the obligatory US remake due this halloween (called Quarantine). Although on the IMDB forums someone amused me by asking whether it is based on a true story :) (yup, the great zombie outbreak of 1997 - I remember it well)

In Bruges 7/10


Not my usual type of film, but I must admit I did enjoy it.

run fat boy run 6/10 bit disappointing really.

Battle of Haditha. Thought provoking. 9/10

The Eye 9-10 Good Film.errmm seen it in america:blush:;)

HOSTEL part 2 7-10 much of the same:gag::gag::gag:

[REC] 4.5/10 Didn't work for me, looked like a film school project hmmm we only have 1 location for this script!

The Orphanage 7.5/10 2nd viewing 8/10 I think english language films are on the way out ;) Stylish & involving

Sexy Beast 8/10 A good british film, nuff said!

Happy-go-lucky - 8.5/10
Loved it, big Eddie Marsen fan and his acting in this was great

Son of Ranbow 6/10

over the top (classic) 10000000000000000000000/10

(The?) Secretary - 7/10.

I have a new fetish for Maggie G now, though.

30 days of night - I was going to say "it's ok" but it's not, it's rubbish.
Blindingly obvious clues about what will happen later in the film "Grandma grows dope", perhaps she will have some UV lamps then, oh, she does, thats handy, "A huge mechanical grinding machine", perhaps someone will end-up in that, oh, they have.
And it has the usual lame ending that leaves it open to a sequal.
Only suprise, the hero dies.
4/10 (only got 4 for the gore, which there wasn't enough of, and the comical vampires)

Rambo 10/10
Excellent, plenty of action, good deaths. He still has it!!!!:D

Fool's Gold - 8/10, good storyline but there are times where they spend a lot of time explaining stuff, which gets a bit tedious and quite difficult to follow.

In Bruges - 8.5/10 - Brilliant film, very funny but you actually get to like the characters too. Love Farell's obsession with Dwarves :D

Flashbacks of a Fool - 7/10 - Pleasant enough film, not that much happens really but it's worth watching.

Happy Go Lucky - 7/10 - Quite enjoyed the film and the scenes with her and he driving instructor were really good!

Control - (Biopic of Ian Curtis the lead singer of Joy Division) - Only 4/10. Only for Joy Division fans in my opinion.

Once - 7/10. Really good little film - the music was great!

Rambo 10/10
Excellent, plenty of action, good deaths. He still has it!!!!:D

.............I worry about the youth of today

Happy go Lucky - 9 out of 10. I found it hilarious! driving intsructor was very scary though!

really looking forward to seeing the iron man when it comes out!

Pan's Labyrinth. 10/10 Exquisite.

.............I worry about the youth of today

YAY!!!!
I`ve havn`t been called youth for years.................................I love you:love::love::D

Control - (Biopic of Ian Curtis the lead singer of Joy Division) - Only 4/10. Only for Joy Division fans in my opinion.

I'd disagree with that, I saw it knowing very little about Joy Division and thoroughly enjoyed the film. Also bought their Greatest Hits CD after watching the film!

Batman, the 1989 version starring Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne/Batman and Jack Nicholson as The Joker.

Still the second best Batman movie EVER after Batman Begins IMO. I only hope the late Heath Ledger is as good as The Joker in the new Batman movie as Jack Nicholson was 19 years ago.

Just seen "In Bruges" with Colin Farrell (dont let that put you off), Brendan Gleesen and Ralph Fienes.

It is excellent. Easily the best film i've seen this year.

Go and see it NOW !













GO !!!!!!!

Happy-go-lucky..............I was so looking forward to seeing this but didn't rate it at all :( The only redeeming thing about this film for me was the actor who played the driving instructor - he was fab.

I'd have to give it a 4/10.....I was actually bored watching it and that rarely ever happens to me with films :(

Saw 3: 1/10

Utterly pointless film. Still, I now know for sure never to bother watching any of the other 3 films so I guess it served a purpose.

Son of Rambow 8 1/2 /10 (liked it loads)
Flashbacks of a fool 8/10 (it made me feel incredibly relaxed for some reason??)

Flashbacks of a fool 9/10

I Am Legend. 7/10. Not bad, not good just ok. Good performance by Will Smith.

Cloverfield 6/10. Disappointing.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall - 7/10 I know this film is in the IMDB top 250 but i just didn't think it was as good as Jason Segels (writer and actor) other film Knocked up. It is still a decent comedy but I could not put this in the top 250 films of all time.

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly - 8/10 - About one man's true account of what it feels like to experience the medical condition called locked-in syndrome. Someone in this condition can see and think, even remember everything but his body is paralyzed from top to bottom and he cannot move his mouth to speak. As depressing as this all sounds, it is nowhere near as intense as how it feels to see the film from the perspective of the patient, which is exactly where Schnabel places his viewer. Whatever you were escaping won't seem so important after having experienced this cinematic paralysis.

Really want to see this film. Sounded really good when it came out but didn't get a chance to go and see it!

Three- 9.5 out of 10.
The film got 1 but Kelly Brook in a bikini or less for 90 minutes gets 8.5.

Persepolis 8/10 - Wasn't too sure at first, but became absorbed by the story, and charmed by the simple (yet effective) animation. Tells quite a political history lesson in a simple way.

Into The Wild - 8 out of 10. Really really good. But I was thinking all the time "Oooh you selfish get! Ring yer mother!"

I saw 21 the other night and really enjoyed it which was suprising cos I'm normally only really interested in chick flicks!

Is definately worth watching tho!

I just watched Awake on dvd, not bad 7.5/10, watched Butterfly on a Wheel few days before that, wasn't bad either as I normally go for horror films!

The Eye - 4/10 Another american remake of an asian horror, terrible film and no suspense whatsoever, uses pretty much all the horror Cliché . Jessica Alba?!!

Has anyone seen Lars and the real girl? It's on at the showroom. Just wondered if anyone recommends it?

How good is Ryan Gosling .... Good film and not the easiest part for an actor to play! 8/10

street kings - 5/10

Children of Men. 7.5/10

As I write I'm watching Dragon: The Bruce Lee story on DVD, 8/10. Some great fight scenes.

Happy Go Lucky 6.5/10

Cloverfield, it was bobbar.

Stalker (Сталкер) 8.5/10 - Andrei Tarkovsky - "Tarkovsky actually manages to film images that we have never seen before: glowing fogbanks, dreams, unnatural sunlight. His use of an undefined deteriorating industrial landscape is delirious; his use of extremely slow and long camera movements creates a non-pulsed filmic time in which hallucinations, dreams, mystical visions can be inscribed into the diegetic space of the film, as integral to the film as any conscious subjective action/narrative, in much the same way Nicolas Roeg used the lush, drugged-out decor in Performance to display subjective, psychedelic mindsets. And the sleeping scene with the waterfall: nowhere have I seen images like that, they are simply riveting. Masterpiece"

He did put the review in quotation marks, so it's fairly obvious he was quoting from elsewhere. The source should have been cited though, you're right.

The last film I saw was Tomb Raider II - the second part of the £5 box set (bargain!). 6/10, purely for a muscularly lovely Gerard Butler and Angelina Jolie in what looked like head to toe silver rubber. Good music and a couple of impressive set pieces, though the story was nothing spectacular, surprisingly enough.

Tomb raider films are pretty good. Great fpor just switching off to, and not having to think. Sometimes that's the perfect recipe to chill out to.

Oh, I agree entirely. I'm all for undemanding films when I want to settle back in the cinema or on the sofa for a few hours of chilling out. I certainly wasn't watching Tomb Raider II for plot, character progression and thematic development :hihi: .

Some check your brain in at the door films do it better than others though; the Tomb Raider films don't compare to, for example, the Terminator series (Edit: the last one was rubbish though), or even something like Scream, if you're after a popcorn-fest.

Recently enjoyed Happy go lucky and In Bruges.

Watched that film with russel brand - strange how i cant remember its name. but anyway very funny, 9/10.

27 dresses 7.5/10 :) Fab, frothy chick flick :)
