Review the last film you watched

[Marmite the Dog]

Wild Bill Good film, no frills, simple story.. well acted, well made, proper ending. 7.5/10

I enjoyed that too. Better than any crap Tarrantino pulls out his arse.

[Davis Knowlton]

I know - oldies again. But I just watched Doctor Zhivago again. For about the tenth time. Why don't they make movies like this anymore? Great musical score, great story, fantastic acting, and incredible scenery and photography. I watched about three movies over the last week - all motherfucker this and motherfucker that; drug dealing, rap "music" - just garbage. Now and then, I just have to watch a real movie, to remember what they were like and why I loved the movies.

DJango unchained - excellent - Tarantino at almost his best.

I agree. It took me a couple of minutes to realize that dentist was the same guy who played the SS Major in Bastards. It must be fun to be part of a QT film.

I'm looking for a film to watch , how about
Life of Pi
worth downloading ?

I was told how great the book was and years ago I read the first page or two ,
but got annoyed when he started telling me 'interesting ' facts , about a Sloth I think , rather than gettig on with telling me a story , and did not bother reading any further .

[The Fresh Prince]

how about Life of Pi worth downloading ?

Yep, I thought it was brilliant.

[Finney64]

^ I agree, can't understand why Richard Parker's not up for Best Actor Oscar

[Butterfly]

Skyfall,

taking the ridiculous and the gayness to a whole new level, even by British standards

boring shit, one of the worst ever

[AntRobertson]

Last night I watched 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1', here is my review....


WHY THE FUCK DID I WATCH THAT PILE OF SHITE!!!!?????

[Butterfly]

WHY THE FUCK DID I WATCH THAT PILE OF SHITE!!!!?????

that's beyond gay, that's borderline full blown retarded !!!

you should be shot for admitting it, let alone watch it

[AntRobertson]

It was the wife's turn to choose. Fucked if I'm watching Part 2!!!

[Butterfly]

Fucked if I'm watching Part 2!!!

I think it's a five part series, with a TV show attached

[AntRobertson]

Sweet Baby Jesus... This could lead to divorce!!!

[Neo]

God Bless America

A middle aged guy hooks up with a teenage girl to go on a shooting spree. It's sardonic, but doesn't really pull it off.
If you like watching Americans kill each other you might like it, but not in a yippee kiyaay kinda way.

6/10

[Humbert]

The Master - 2012 Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson

This film has an unmistakable kinship to Let There Be Blood by the same director. Joaquin Phoenix gives a superb performance as a self destructive loser who makes a weird, unlikely connection to a self-styled cult guru played by Philip Seymour Hoffman. This is a beautifully shot film crafted by a man in total command of his art. Not for everybody but I found it to be a remarkable film. 9/10

[Humbert]

Life of Pi - 2012 Directed by Ang Lee

Another superb film by a modern cinematic master story teller. What a great big beautiful movie that is both visually exciting and thought provoking. 9/10

[Humbert]

Hitchcock - 2012 Directed by Sacha Gervasi.

I really wanted to like this film because I am a huge Hitchcock fan but I ended up feeling that it did his legacy a huge disservice because it is largely a piece of made up fiction. Anthony Hopkins looks trapped inside a rubber fat suit and gives a totally unconvincing performance. 5/10

The Master,
Not for everybody

Present!

Really? 9/10?
I wanted my 2.5 hours back. Good acting and well made, and while it was rarely boring, it just didn't impress. One of those movies made to try and win an oscar rather than entertain.

[Humbert]

^Ocscars usually go to uplifting films. This movie was dark and introspective - hardly a ploy to win an award.

[Neo]

Delicatessen

One of the best movies ever made. Watched for the first time in years. 9/10

[Neo]

Leon

Superb. 9/10

[crocman]

Cloud Atlas.

Starring Tom Hanks,Halle Berry,Hugh Grant,Hugo Weaving and Susan Sarandon.

Hard movie to critique,it's about Life,Love,Hope,Despair,Karma,Rejuvenation and whole lot more.

it's one of those movies that will be different for each viewer.Me,I loved it.8.5/10.

As Molly would say,do your yourself a favour.

[mao say dung]

This film has an unmistakable kinship to Let There Be Blood by the same director.

Agree on both counts. The Master is a brilliant film and it sent me back to watch There Will Be Blood again. I liked it the first time but this time thought it was a bloody great film.

It would be interesting to do a thread about posters' favorite Father and Son flics. That does seem to be the main theme in Anderson's films.

[robuzo]

Watched Silver Lining Playbook on a plane- otherwise I wouldn't taken notice- and was pleasantly surprised. I struggled through the first 30 minutes or so, then it drew me in. Might have to watch it again to be sure it wasn't merely Stockholm Syndrome.
