Buried - it was quite exciting, especially the ending

The Warriors Way, a ninja assasin moves to the wild west to save the life of a baby from his own "clan", visually very good and an enjoyable story 7-8/10.

Harry Brown, loved it !!!

Jackassfan · 28-05-2011, 23:26

Good Men Good Women (Hao nan hao nu) (1995) 8/10

Willow2904 · 29-05-2011, 01:24

Watching The Deer Hunter now. Best Movie Ever.

thedarklord · 29-05-2011, 01:46

Gran Torino. I got this on DVD the other day and thought it was fantastic. This is actually the first Clint Eastwood I've ever seen. Gran Torino is what Harry Brown should have been

9/10.

Radiomaniac · 29-05-2011, 02:07

In America - 2002.

Can't stand Samantha Morton but love Paddy Considine and will watch anything he's in!

5/10

SG-1 · 29-05-2011, 10:41

Just bought the back to the future trilogy on bluray,last night i watched back to the future 2..the makeup used to make them look older seems so shoddy now

I also watched the bluray of Hannibal rising,not a bad film although a bit overdrawn at 2 hours.

With building my bluray films I am watching more older films than new lately.
Watching them in bluray is like watching them for the first time.

degsyhufc · 29-05-2011, 10:53

For Your Eyes Only - 6/10
I was bored yesterday so watched this in the background. Not the best Bond film but passed two hours.

CLL Dodge · 29-05-2011, 11:55

Crescendo [1970]. Director: Alan Gibson

5/10

The Hammer psycho drama format was getting a bit tired by this time.

Orangemaid · 29-05-2011, 13:29

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006). 7.5/10

This one is OK, but I enjoy the 1st one the most. I haven't watched the latest one.

guernseysnail · 29-05-2011, 15:50

Carriers..a good watch 7/10.

kimindex · 29-05-2011, 16:52

The Oprhan 8/10. Above average for that genre of films. Great performance by the lead girl.

NinjyBear · 29-05-2011, 18:20

The Cleaner (Samuel L Jackson) - 5/10

Forgettable.

Darthchaffinch · 29-05-2011, 20:04

Shutter Island

3/10 - woeful

jules1000 · 29-05-2011, 21:23

Festen 7.5/10

Danish film.
Very good and quite different. Family ties, lies and power.

Orangemaid · 29-05-2011, 22:12

Orphan
had the dvd last year, and it was'nt bad on my second viewing of it

the dvd kept sticking so i missed bits, but this time i could watch the whole film

The Racket

Standard film noir with Bob Mitchum playing the honest cop battling the system and taking on the mob boss and the corrupt politicians in his pocket. It's a fairly by-the-numbers good-vs-evil storyline, although the large cast of characters made it a bit messy and hard to follow at times. It might be because people in film noir all dress the flippin' same, good guy or bad guy - the market for trench coats and fedoras in the 1940s must have been ginormous.

Anyway, Robert Ryan (who also looks a bit like Mitchum, which doesn't help) is suitably menacing as the head gangster, and there are some pretty exciting scenes along the way. A good, solid film, but not a classic.

Jackassfan · 29-05-2011, 23:39

Innocent Sorcerers (Niewinni czarodzieje) (1960) 8/10

Gort · 29-05-2011, 23:49

True Grit (2010)

I'm not really into cowboy films, although there are exceptions. I have to admit that this was fairly good and I enjoyed it. It wasn't the best film of last year, nor was it really what I'd call a Coen styled film as such, but it did keep me watching without getting bored or start picking out cliches. The acting was quite good, and Hailee Steinfeld is certainly an actress to look out for in the future, who gave an impressive performance considering her age. So, decent film worth watching, and certainly better than the original film, which I found tedious.

just watched "the curious case of benjamin button" on channel 4! it nearly making cry and i never get emotional at movies!

lil lexie · 30-05-2011, 11:47

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - 4/10

Life is like a box of buttons, you never know what you're gonna get.

Typical Hollywood style yarn, just The Ugly Duckling retold with an age twist and a vanity project (if ever there was one) for the pretty but thespian challenged Brad Pitt. And poor Cate Blanchett doesn't have to do very much other than look pretty (but not as pretty as Pitt).

Utter nonsense but it all looked pretty.
