Last Film Watched Thread

by I Blame Coco Thu Apr 21, 2011 4:09 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.

Surprisingly good movie.

Yeah I avoided it too then watched it for lack of a better option and laughed my ass off.
Clerks two, watched is totally smashed ages ago and decided to watch it sober...what a waste of time

I watched Super 8. It was a cam version and the dude was eating the whole way through which kind of spoilt it, fat f**k!

Last good film I watched was Take Me Home Tonight, one of the best films I've seen in the last 6 months.

is that the film version of the paddy mcguiness show?

fernando's!!!!

Funnily enough it isn't. It's actually called Take Me Home Tonight Doh

It's set in 1988 and it's about a guy who went to MIT but still lives at home and works in a video store and spends the night trying to impress his High School crush. It's really funny.

Watched The Fighter last night.

Good film.

Christian Bale's performance is quality. Nailed it to perfection.

The Chaser - Good Korean movie about a cop turned pimp tracking down a serial killer who has been killing off his girls 7.5/10

IP Man - Great movie. Loved the story and the fight scenes were great 9.5/10

i watched pirates of the carribean, curse of the black pearl last night, lol i dont no why though

by Sir. badgerhands Wed Jun 22, 2011 4:34 pm

Stake Land.

Not bad at all.

Bit like watching "The Road" with vampires!!

Last really good film I saw was "The Prophet", French prison drama that had me gripped from start to finish.

Brother's Justice

It's a mockumentary about Dax Shepard's attempt to quit comedy and become the next Chuck Norris.

Bradley Cooper, Champ from Anchorman and Jon Favreau* make cameos.

I think it's really funny.

Last one I watched was ALMIGHTY THOR on SyFy channel.

Oh. My. God. Shocked

Had planned to review it for my 'bad film' website, but think it was too bad even for that!

Just found it on IMDb, the first review I've seen is titled: "Is this the worst film I have ever seen??" the first line of the review is "The simple answer is quite possibly yes." Would be good to see your review.

Lake Placid 3 ...............last night on dvd . They still haven't killed all those bloody crocodiles !

Bridesmades - one of the first chick flicks in years to actually make me laugh a lot.

by Cari Thu Aug 18, 2011 4:28 pm

About three weeks ago I was staying with some pals in Dublin, and one evening we watched the Japanese anime film Spirited Away. I was enjoying it, but having been walking around Dublin all day I was absolutely knackered and fell asleep about five minutes before the end!!

by dyrewolfe Thu Aug 18, 2011 4:50 pm

Last film I watched (that I hadn't seen before) was a weird horror flick called Shrooms. Starts off a bit cliched and boring but ends up surprisingly...interesting, with a decent twist at the end, which some brighter people than me might spot coming.

by Celtic Warrior Thu Aug 18, 2011 5:57 pm

I watched The Other Guys last night.

Awesome movie.

by **Kenny** Fri Aug 19, 2011 1:15 pm

Conan the Barbarian and Conan the Destroyer last night .

classic Arnie

by Adam D Fri Aug 19, 2011 1:26 pm

I watched an incredibly weird "comedy" the other night called "Lower Learning"

It had Jason Bigs, Eva Longaria, Rob Cordroy and Kyle Gas in it.

It was just bizarre from start to finish and cant tell if I enjoyed i or not. Still dont know two days on! Anyone else seen it?

by Cari Sat Aug 20, 2011 10:15 am

I was up until three this morning because I'd gotten engrossed in a film called Red Road. It's set in Glasgow about a woman who works as a CCTV operator looking at blocks of flats. After spotting a man she recognises from her past on screen one night, it sets off a whole chain of events. I can't say anymore because I'd give away the whole plot, but I'd highly recommend it. Good realist drama from the UK.

by **Kenny** Sun Aug 21, 2011 1:05 am

Just watched Winter's Bone on sky movies , thoroughly enjoyed it very good film .

I misread your post, and for a second thought you'd followed up your Conan double feature with the classic Annie - as in family musical with cute singing red-haired girl - "The Sun'll Come Out Tomorrow.." Shocked

I just sat and watched Hobo With A Shotgun

Decided to lighten things up a little and I'm watching Rush Hour now.

by legendkillar Sun Aug 21, 2011 11:25 pm

I have just watched Tron Legacy. I have to say that I was very disappointed given the script. Bridges I thought held the film together superbly. Olivia Wilde was good and certainly gave a worthy performance. Garrett Hedlund I felt sorry for given that his character was one too many. I felt there was so much emphasis on the effects that the story felt rushed through in certain areas. It needed more depth in story-telling. Dare I say it could've done better with a re-make of the orginal and maybe this as a following sequel.

I think a 7 out of 10 is fair.

by **Kenny** Tue Aug 23, 2011 12:26 am

The Blues Brothers on now on ITV4 , one of my favourite films ever

by Mickado Fri Aug 26, 2011 10:01 am

Saw Equilibrium with Christian Bale last night. Pretty cheesy plot but it has the best fight scenes I've ever seen!

by **Derbyblue** Fri Aug 26, 2011 3:27 pm

I've watched 3 very good films in these past 3 days, Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, Remember The Titans and Inception.

yeah i did derby ,

by AlexHuckerby Sat Aug 27, 2011 7:01 am

Remember the Titans is a quality film - not ashamed to admit it, one of the few films that really welled me up in tears.

I just watched the movie Zodiac (2004) been wanting to see it for a while and oh my god was it worth it. Absolutely brilliant film, you have to have some patience as it's a long film however the story was gripping and moved along really well. Acting was brilliant but then again looking at the stellar cast it's unsurprising, bit dark in places but then again it is about a serial killer and they're very rarely cheery films. Don't rate many movies high as I am very picky however this deserves a 9.5 HIGHLY recommend it.

by **Derbyblue** Sat Aug 27, 2011 6:27 pm

Not sure it was necessary to spoiler that Bull, but I'm exactly the same.

'Pursuit of Happyness' moving and inspirational film. Saw it recently on 5*

by asdral225 Sat Aug 27, 2011 10:37 pm

Last one was Tron Legacy which I really enjoyed it's far better than the original

by **Kenny** Sun Aug 28, 2011 12:50 am

Took the kids to the cinema this evening and saw Mr Popper's Penguins starring Jim Carrey , not one Carrey's best films but the kids loved it and i did laugh quite abit . So if your stuck for something to do while the kids are off school then it's worth a look .

by Bull Sun Aug 28, 2011 7:23 pm

watched PAUL very funny indeed Frost/Pegg are great in it to as well as Seth Rogan ( PAUL ) its worth having a look but i think HotFuzz is better.... overall 8.5/10

Watched Inception last night for the first time.
I liked the storyline (yes I understood it!) but thought the special effects could have been used a bit more.

by Adam D Mon Aug 29, 2011 10:49 am

Half way through Dinner for Schmucks - enjoying it so far.

I went to see that and felt like a total nerd because nobody else in the whole cinema laughed at all the sci fi film references

really dinner for schmucks? i didn't take to it. Apart from the mind battle at the end

by easthfc Mon Aug 29, 2011 3:02 pm

I watched Stripes a few days ago. An old Bill Murray movie where he joins the army.

Was a lot better than expected, I recommend it.

7/10

by **Kenny** Thu Sep 01, 2011 1:29 am

Jonah Hex , it's a sort of western kick ass film i actually enjoyed it but it was panned by the critics .

6/10

by Adam D Thu Sep 01, 2011 8:27 am

Stripes is a fantastic film - havent seen it in years though.

I enjoyed Dinner for Schmucks as well, had some cringeworthy scenes which I always enjoy.

Started to watch Devil last night - another film panned by critics. Going to try and watch the end tonight.
