Film You Recently Watched

Is that with JCVD? Where he's confronted by a snake....and then knocks it out with one punch?

 

Gran Torino

I'm not normally one for films without car crashes, space battles or Eddie Murphy:biggrin:, however I heartily recommend you watch this. It's on Sky Anytime at the moment if you've got the Movie Channels.

Clint Eastwood does a pretty good job of directing himself playing a Kick Ass Victor Meldrew, who eventually softens up after making friends with his neighbours. A good reflection on the stupidity of gang culture.

 

Liked Gran Tourino. The Korean actors were all dire though.

 

Not Korean, but I suspect you knew that..?
The characters were Hmong, and it appears most of the Asian actors were, too.

 

Watched Knowing last night. Great film until the woeful ending. A film that Nicholas Cage is actually good in because his films are usually tragic.

 

I think I may of already posted something similar earlier in this thread, but that film was fantastic until the last 30 minutes, then it bombed haaaaard.

 

I'm extremely disappointed in myself as I say:
I can't wait to see MacGruber.

 

Scanners

 

the exploding head film? i saw that in the cinema about a hundred years ago

 

It's awfully sad that it's remembered as the 'exploding head film'....

Probably Cronenberg's masterpiece, but was lumped in with the 80's 'video nasty' catalogue which is grossly unfair....

The exploding head is good tho.....

 

MacGrubeeeer! Macgruuuuubeeeeeer!

 

yeah!!!

 

the human centipede

 

30 anniversary of starwars return of the Jedi tonight.. so that

 

Actually I'd forgotten that. Sorry. They were dreadful actors though, apart from the spiky old crone.

 

Paranormal Activity.

One or two chilling bits, but overall not as bad as everyone claims. I like how pretty much all that is needed to make it was a house and a videocamera - so low budget, yet so much profit. I hear a 2nd is planned for later this year...

my son just watched that over the weekend. told me all about it.

yucko.

 

Mike Basset: England Manager

Class movie

 

Dead Man Running...

Daft but fun.

 

:sign15:

 

You get everything before us over there...British SW fans are only just reminissing the classic that is The Empire Strikes Back

 

The Invention of Lying

 

I was made to watch Street Dance 3D by my niece. What a load of tosh !!

 

That was one of Ricky Gervaises better films IMO. Underrated

 

Universal Soldier : Regeneration

A return to form for the franchise...

 

Was a quality film.. everyone i know said they did not like it.. but it had some laughs

 

Could've been alot better than it was, if they carried on him ******* about with his ability to lie and no one else understand him for longer.

 

Missing In Action

 

Life of Brian

And i saw the entire series of Mike Basset: Wirral Manager Class

 

Employee of the Month.

Hate rom-coms but really enojyed it

 

Despite the bad reviews we went to see Wild Target with Bill Nighy as a hitman because we just wanted to go to the pictures.

It was very very funny, the whole cinema really laughing throughout.

 

Saw The A-Team at the Mrs' insistence. She used to watch it with her dad every Sunday night when she was a kid...so we went on Father's Day as a remembrance for him as he passed in the 90's.

Basically, the whole movie is a setup for the last line of the film, which was:
"I love it when a plan comes together."

Fair entertainment, the kind of movie I'd get drunk with buddies in college and watch on video.
