Film you recently watched: Part 2

Watched the Social Network. Really enjoyable, even though there are no sympathetic main characters and I hate facebook.

7.5/10

 

Just watched Shutter Island again - 8.5/10.

 

I thought it was hilarious. Probably means I'm simple, but hey ho.

 

I've seen it before, but I've managed to watch 'The Blind Side' twice in the past week.

Great, feel-good film, with a great story. 9/10.

 

Saw bridge on the river kwai. Excellent film. True classic.

¬"Dr Strangelove or how i learned to stop worrying and love the bomb" is one of my new favourite films. Such brilliant one liners under toned with a truthful horror.

Just watched Apocalypse Now. What a god-awful film. So long and pointless. Ok i understand the trip up the river, that was ok, but the further they got, with the madness of the troops at that bridge, and then the guy with the whole villiage who thoguht he was a god, what a crap ending. Just bored me towards the end.

 

Yes, yes, and no.
Kwai is amazing.
Strangelove is my all time favorite.
Apocalypse Now is also an incredible film, but one thing you need to understand about it is that it is based on a Joseph Conrad story called Heart of Darkness. Get to know it, or, watch the excellent film about the making of the movie called "Hearts of Darkness" and come to appreciate that wonderful film.

 

The celery gag, though telegraphed to the point where you knew it was coming, still made me "loll".

 

I celebrated every throat rip like it was a goal.

 

MacGruber boning his dead wife's ghost on a park table was an all time great cinema moment.

 

Changeling:

Quite a brilliant film!

I was put off the film before seeing it by the fact that Angelina Jolie is in it, but she is fantastic in this - I could actually believe she was her character. Don't let her appearance put you off seeing this

 

They do bear a resemblance in my opinion.

 

I want to see Attack The Block too, I've heard good things

 

I saw sex drive the other day. Good film, and the girl who played Felicia is HOT!

Also, I want one of those Doughnut suits!

 

I'm a big fan of Adam and Joe so that's how I've heard of it, I'm surprised just how many people want to see it that haven't heard of Joe Cornish.

Unfortunately I have no real friends to go see it with lol


I read a review which said Attack The Block, along with some other films, is showing a rise in British films and producers/writers

 

Danny Dyer's retired? Leave it aaht you mug!

 

Saw Incideous at the weekend.

If you have watched Poltergeist II, then you will know the plot.

Not a bad film, but could have been better

 

Saw Memento yesterday. Very good film, but very confusing.

 

First half of the film was very good, second half was very average.

 

correct, once they revealed the family secret it went downhill

still... plenty of screaming girls in the cinema needed looking after

 

Just seen on 5+ channel 30 'The Bone Collector' very good thriller, Lincoln Rhyme a paraplegic Detective tracks down a serial killer from his bed .

Stars Denzel Washington and Angelina:naughty: Jolie.

Will have to read the book now by Jeffery Deaver to compare.

 

Terminator 2

 

Frost / Nixon

Quite good actually. Better than I thought it'd be.
Not the kind of film you could watch again though

 

Saw 'Four Lions' a while back. A really funny film, recommend it highly!

 

Iron Man II, currently on Sky.

I enjoyed the original and this was good also. Scarlet Johansen:naughty: is in it.

The evil business dude annoyed me though, he was a blatent rip off of Gary Oldman's dodgy copper in Leon.

If you want an easy to watch film and the neighbours are out I heartily recommend this with the volume turned up.
8/10
