Review the last film you watched

[The Fresh Prince]

Arrh ok cheers. I don't normally go for a movie with 'vs' in the title.

[PlanK]

I can recommend Attack Girl Swim team vs the Undead.

Those Japanese girls really know how to liven up a movie.

Apocalypse Now Redux

"Charging a man with murder in this place was like handing out speeding tickets at the Indy 500."

An extra 49 minutes of footage and a running time of over 3 hours. Owners of surround sound systems will appreciate the remastered soundtrack and deep bass directional sounds of eternal helicopters passing overhead. Coppola must have hired a whole fleet of helicopters to make this movie.

The extra footage slows down the pace of the movie, but enticingly draws out the slow descent into the madness/sobriety of the world of Kurtz.

Extra scene at the old French plantation is the most obvious change to the movie. The Vietnam is like an egg dialogue is indeed fitting.

The scene where they are trading diesel for sex with the Playboy girls is a bonus too, which also reinforces the theme of futility and lawlessness and the cheapness of life, the pitiful and forgotten post, the soldiers without leadership or care, sex with an image of American beauty in a funeral parlour with corpses on the muddy floor.

A superb film in it's full glory, I usually watch it in two halves.

[The Fresh Prince]

Cheers for that. I've got a BRIP downloading now.

Just watched the 2011 French murder mystery thriller "Switch". It got reviews around 6/10, but I thought it was better than that. In French, but with excellent subtitles. I recommend it.

My fave bit was Sienna Miller

she is a dog,

At least she hasn't got a cock like your 'girlfriend' has.

stop being jealous, you still have yours to play with

[Butterfly]

Watching this at the mo mindless sci fi all good though

shit movie, avoid at all cost

[Butterfly]

The Dark Knight Rises,

boring until the last 30 min,

again the bad guy saves the movie,

[Jesus Jones]

Expendables II

Action packed cliche a minute film which beats anything on Thai tv

[The Fresh Prince]

Resident Evil: Retribution

10/10 for mindless action, violence, zombies and of course Milla Jovovich

0/10 for story.

Good way to waste 90 minutes with a few beers.

I'm trying to watch this now.

I thought I was getting it, then, hang on....It's about..hang on...ok...wtf?!!!

It's like watching somebody else play a video game with loads of chances for an inappropriate wank.

They should make a game out of this for the ps3 or something.

Milla Jovovich

Munter.

Quite a thriller. 9/10

I don't suppose you realised that the main detective was Eric Cantona. He used to be the centre forward for Manchester United football club also France.

Pictured here with David Beckham

[Davis Knowlton]

^Quite correct, I didn't realize that - interesting!

Was in the mood for a war movie last night, so re-watched "Enemy at the Gate". Sniper vs sniper in Stalingrad. Great! 9/10, as always!

[OhOh]

Apocalypse Now Redux

Quite a different feel with the additions.

Bought the Canadian 3 disc blu ray earlier in the year. When there is something this good, i rather get original

[OhOh]

^A pipe of opium, a glimpse of a nude French woman, and a dream. Anything better?

[chassamui]

Dark Night Rises. 5/10 Trying to be dark and funny is a tough ask, unless they were just trying to be dark and they failed.

Skyfall. 6/10 If you watch the 50 years of Bond documentary by Richard Hammond then you have seen most of the good bits. When you have a child playing 'Q' and he has no goodies, you have to go back to Aston Martin and dynamite past its sell by date. Bond on a budget for recessionary times?

Ted. 7/10 A childish premise but quite enjoyable if predictable tosh. For me the star of the movie was Ted's potty mouthed trailer trash girlfriend. Easy and undemanding viewing.

A little more realistic, but why the baddie just didn't send in a missile totting drone is beyond me.

[chassamui]

That would have cut the movie short by 20 mins.

The Bourne Legacy is available now.

The Bourne Legacy 2012

Watched that last night, it didn't really capture my attention though.

Anyone else seen it?

Watched it last night. Slow going, long and drawn out. My impression is that it seems to be laying the groundwork for the heavy lifting in the follow-up(s). But based on this film, they have their work cut out to draw in the crowds. Feeble, 4/10

[WujouMao]

Watched the fascinating documentary of Jason Becker - Not dead yet.





I never heard of the guy, but its a great doco, 9/10

[Davis Knowlton]

Watched "The Factory" last night. John Cusak and the actress who plays Dexter's sister. I had had this for a while, but had never gotten around to it (perhaps the uninspiring title and cover?). Turned out to be very good. 9/10. No review for fear of spoiler. Detective movie. Cusak's turning into a pretty good actor, and Dexter's sister was good, although she still says 'fuck' way too much (but not as much as in Dexter).

Agree, it's a long time since i read Ludlum, but they seemed to have stepped completely away from the Bourne story here. Other than to advertise the movie, there is no real reason for this to be a bourne movie.
They could have run it as a stand alone, would probably have been less disappointing that way.

Poltergeist (1982)

Ate some space cake and turned the lights out to watch this just like in the old days.
I haven't seen it in years and it's such a good film, and it really stands up to the test of time. Some of the cgi was a little weak of course, but that was more than outweighed by the mechanical effects that must have cost a fortune to put together. The cinematography is excellent and the atmosphere is fantastic given that it isn't created with a studio full of special effects. It's such an iconic '80s' film, the style, the sexuality, the humour.. it doesn't take itself seriously and plays out like a rollercoaster ride.

Best of all.. JoBeth Williams was one smokin' hot mama..! Oh yeah
And boy could she scream!! There is a scene where she is trapped on the landing with the poltergeist and let's out a ripper, must be one of the best all time top horror film scream scenes. Legend.
