Last Film Watched Thread

by I Blame Coco Thu Apr 21, 2011 3:09 pm

First topic message reminder :

Bit of a running thread we could hopefully keep going....

Meet Joe Black - Never seen it before, thought it was great but maybe a bit too long at 3 hours. One of Brad Pitt's best performances.

Source Code - Bit of a head f**k, won't lie to you i didn't fully understand the ending.

I watched Conan the Babarian (Original) lastnight, what a film still up there in my top 5

CROOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eddie and the Cruisers 2 Eddie Lives !! , love the music

by B91212 Sun Feb 12, 2012 6:03 pm

Paranormal Activity 3. Absolute pap - enjoyed the first one, thought it a bit original. The second was average at best but the third installment was pure tripe. I warned my Mrs it was supposed to be poor before she purchased it on cable but she wouldn't have it. 1/10.

Made in Dagenham. Depressing, another nail in the coffin of male superiority Wink

Actually didn't mind it, good British film 7/10.

Went to see woman in black last night. Thought it was well made, was on the edge of my seat throughout waiting for something to happen, really atmospheric and some genuinely jumpy moments

by Adam D Fri Feb 17, 2012 12:10 pm

I watched a truly awful film last night - Twisted with Ashley Judd, Sam Jackson and Andy Garcia.

Actually awful is too good a description.

why did I carry on watching?

by Muppets Fri Feb 17, 2012 7:33 pm

The Muppets movie, highly recommended to everyone! A fantastic watch.

by asdral225 Fri Feb 17, 2012 9:32 pm

Jack and Jill, I think Adam Sandlers best days are gone. The film was predictable and not that funny

by Aidan11 Sat Feb 18, 2012 10:39 am

I've seen the trailer for Jack & Jill , and although I'm a big Sandler fan I think I'll give this one a miss.

by easthfc Mon Feb 20, 2012 11:42 am

Chronicle - Thought it was a very good movie. Great special effects and the storyline was good.

by westisbest Mon Feb 20, 2012 12:52 pm

The Change Up, Jason Bateman was quality in it. Decent comedy.

Dream House - Daniel Craig, Rachel Weiz, not to bad.

by Guest Mon Feb 20, 2012 3:32 pm

The Lincoln Lawyer with Matthew Mcconaughey. Very Good Storyline & Superb Soundtrack if you like old-school hip hop beats. 8/10

by Guest Tue Feb 21, 2012 5:33 am

Not sure if anyone has explained the ending of the "Source Code" on this thread - it is "straight forward" in story land but impossible in reality. For those that haven't yet seen the film I'll put it in the spoiler.

Spoiler:

Watched I am Legend again lastnight not a bad film but could of been better , i do prefer Omega man vesion with Charlton Heston

by Doon the Water Tue Feb 21, 2012 12:05 pm

Well there's a surprise Adam Sandler had some 'best days'.
He is sooooooooooo wooden. There seems to be a three second delay every time he has a line.

by Mr Bounce Tue Feb 21, 2012 1:37 pm

Man on a Ledge.

Should be renamed "Man on a Ledge. With plot holes"

And Ed Harris looks ANCIENT in it!

by **hampo17** Tue Feb 21, 2012 9:01 pm

Just watched Warrior. Fantastic film, Tom Hardy was brilliant, really can't wait to see him in the new batman film.

by westisbest Tue Feb 21, 2012 10:16 pm

Yeah warrior was a great film, thought everyone played their parts well.

The song at the start of the film was great to. The National 'start a war'.

Great stuff.

by westisbest Wed Feb 22, 2012 8:58 pm

Frightnight.

D REDFUL.

by **hampo17** Wed Feb 22, 2012 9:40 pm

I'm about to sit down and watch real steel, few friends said it was pretty decent.

by Celtic Warrior Fri Feb 24, 2012 9:42 am

I went in to see The Woman In Black last night. I have to say I thought it was brilliant.

by WhiteCamry Fri Feb 24, 2012 2:50 pm

The Artist. Much better than I thought it would be.

by eirebilly Fri Feb 24, 2012 6:56 pm

I finally got around to watching The Green Hornet this week. Not exactly a good film, i would not recommend it.

by Guest Fri Feb 24, 2012 7:36 pm

The Eagle........Shocking!

by MR. scotland27 Fri Feb 24, 2012 9:46 pm

Just finished watching Fight Club

Absoloute MIND F*CK

by eirebilly Sat Feb 25, 2012 6:50 am

Fight Club was one of the worst films i have ever seen. It really was poor

by westisbest Sat Feb 25, 2012 8:46 am

Watched The Woman In Black last night.

decent film.

He will never win any awards for his acting but some of his other films are a lot funnier the Jack and Jill

by B91212 Sun Feb 26, 2012 4:24 am

Tower Heist with Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Casey Afllect, Mathew Broderick, Alan Alda, Tea Leoni, Gabourey Sidibe (girl from the film precious).

Proof if ever it was needed that just by filling a cast up with stars doesn't guarantee a decent film. Got a thing for Tea Leoni though so it wasn't all bad....

by rawa86 Sun Feb 26, 2012 6:24 am

Watched Gomorrah last night. An Italian film about the Mafia in Naples. Was pretty good. Not the best film I have ever seen but if you like gangster movies it`s worth watching.

by B91212 Tue Feb 28, 2012 5:05 pm

The Retreat. Was optimistic being a British film and although what I thought a pretty original script the film itself wasn't great and the story seemed to move too quickly and without explanation or reason. One of of the main characters seemed to go from being cautiously optimistic to downright ultra depressed in a matter of seconds and yet nothing had really happened by that point. 4/10.

by **superflyweight** Tue Feb 28, 2012 6:15 pm

Finally got round to watching Battle Royale (not sure why it's taken me so long to see it given that I'm a fan of modern Japanese cinema). Great stuff.

Also saw Drive the other night. Brilliant and not entirely what I was expecting. Quite violent and wears it's John Carpenter and Michael Mann influences well.

by Sugar Floyd Louis Tue Feb 28, 2012 6:33 pm

Watched 'Abduction' earlier... good film. Predictable though.

I was a little disappointed by Drive. I thought it was good but not as good as some people were making it out to be. I just thought it dipped too much in the middle. Still the opening sequence was brilliant. Class sound track too.

by Blade Tue Feb 28, 2012 9:35 pm

Just watched the women in black, Not a bad film but not a great film, Think i would give it 6 out of 10.

by **Kenny** Tue Feb 28, 2012 11:15 pm

I watched the Eagle today , ive got to say i was looking forward to it but felt let down really id only give it a 5 out of 10

by President Trump Wed Feb 29, 2012 9:47 am

I watched Battle: Los Angeles the other day, I thought it was very good, lots of action

by **hampo17** Wed Feb 29, 2012 1:44 pm

Watched Killers Elite on Monday, really good film, if you like Stathem's other films you'll like this. A good switch your brain off movie with lots of action.

by WhiteCamry Wed Feb 29, 2012 4:59 pm

Sita Sings the Blues. Good music, and the Making of is at least as inspiring as the movie itself.

Oh .... Fight Club.

For a moment there ... oh, never mind.

Has anyone seen Apollo 18 yet?

by B91212 Tue Mar 06, 2012 5:29 pm

Watched Repo Men last night. Interesting concept but not really done that well, 6/10

by Doon the Water Tue Mar 06, 2012 10:19 pm

Saw 'Most Exotic Marigold Hotel' last night.
Very funny, feel good film, some great one liners.

A posh snobby woman was talking about her 40th wedding anniversary.
'I'm not sure what to organise' she said. Another bitchy woman says 'How about a minutes silence'.

Watched two films over the weekend

Roommate: Bad "Single White female" ripoff, beautiful college girl gets mental roommate nuff said - 1/10

Hanna: Actually thought it was an alright film, young Irish actress Saoirse Ronan has a good solid but sometimes robotic performance, plot line is a bit weak as is Eric Bana and Cate Blanchett's acting in it but worth a watch - 7/10

I thought Hanna was a decent film aswell , worth a watch

by **Derbyblue** Mon Mar 12, 2012 6:41 pm

Usual Suspects. Think it may only be my second time watching it and it's still a very good film despite knowing what happens and despite having a DVD which suddenly gets jumpy in the middle of the film. Would recommend the film to anybody.

by Guest Mon Mar 12, 2012 8:31 pm

Watched a Columbo film yesterday and really enjoyed it. I was tempted to rent out District 9 earlier. Is this worth watching?

by WhiteCamry Tue Mar 13, 2012 2:36 pm

Farewell. French movie about a KGB turncoat ca. 1981 sending info westward via - no pun intended - a French connection.

by Guest Tue Mar 20, 2012 4:58 am
