^ If you are like Westerns, Slow West is a new movie I thought was a good one.

Slow West (2015) - IMDb

Slow is right.....but it was watchable. Thanks.

Tried it, but I simply loathe Dillon. He's a tiny bit better since he's aged, but still the same sneering punk from Rumble Fish underneath. I was hoping like Depp or Travolta, he might have really improved with age, but no.

If you enjoy shows such as "The Office", this will probably appeal to you. Some good dialogue for sure:



First 2 episodes are available on KAT.

The Hundred-Foot Journey



2014 film

7.3/10· The Hundred-Foot Journey (2014) - IMDb
68%· The Hundred-Foot Journey[at](2014) - Rotten Tomatoes
2/4· The Hundred-Foot Journey Movie Review (2014) | Roger Ebert

Hassan Kadam (Manish Dayal) is an extraordinarily talented and largely self-taught culinary novice. When he and his family are displaced from their native India and settle in a quaint French village, they decide to open an Indian eatery. However, Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren), the proprietress of an acclaimed restaurant just 100 feet away, strongly objects. War erupts between the two establishments, until Mallory recognizes Kadam's impressive epicurean gifts and takes him under her wing.

Initial release: August 8, 2014 (USA)

Director: Lasse Hallström

Running time: 2h 4m

Initial DVD release: December 2, 2014 (USA)

I saw it on Truevisions, oddly enough (they come up with some first runs---for me---that I don't find on HBO or Fox movies) and recommend any movie that I sit thru its entirety: done. Here's a kickass Blue-ray 720p and 1080p link Download hundred foot journey movie Torrents - Kickass Torrents
The 720p link comes with a film camera icon in front of it and the 1080p does not. Not sure what that means exactly but as it's also on top of the two links, I tested the magnet link and uTorrent loaded it: 4.99GB but I didn't download it. You'll have to go thru at least one clickadd, those MFs, but I couldn't find a link on piratebay and don't trust any of the other links I found.

Bit windy for a recommendation, EH? Where's Luigi???

It's a lovely film.

It's a lovely film.

Hellen Mirren has stupendous class. And when Madame Mallory is asked by Hassan Kadam's father what the definition of classical is (as in classical cuisine), she starts out by saying "The root of 'classical' is 'class'". I thought "oh, here we go: brit starts talking about class". She continued: "Therefore, he will learn to cook with class."

Now that you mention it he is a bit grating at times but I liked him in Wild Things and Something About Mary.

I tried to watch Slow West but fell asleep about half way into it. Aptly titled but the joke is on the viewer.

Honestly, if you want something a bit more realistic about a foreign chef wanting to make it big in France, Ratatouille should be your choice. It's basically the same story but the characters and the general French atmosphere are much more believable in the Disney movie.

Insightful and well made documentary full of first hand accounts and extensive colour footage. 90 mins. I watched it on iPlayer, use a proxy or wait for a download.

I'm going to make another recommendation (having been advised by Davis to keep it up). This recommendation will be a little weird, as far as recommendations on this thread goes. First of all, it's about Interstellar, which I know, is soooo yesterday. Secondly, I'm requoting all posts that have already discussed it. Third, I also posted an earlier comment which was flamed and I want it brought to light and the retardant (def: substance that prevents or inhibits something) exposed for the retardant he is.

There are a couple of screeners for Interstellar out there... I went to the cinema to watch it and it was really very good, but in a very perplexing way... a film based on relativity, highbrow sci-fi... the audience were silent as it ended. Not sure what score to give it, though it's certainly worthy of high marks I can see how it wouldn't be to everyone's enjoyment. I'll give it some time and wait for a decent copy to watch it again.. certainly needs 1080 or 720 quality to be appreciated.

I downloaded Interstellar and started watching it last night but the sound quality is really poor. After almost an hour I gave up. I'll have to wait until there's a better quality (dvd rip) version to download as it looks like it will be a worthwhile view.

Can't wait for The Martian, with Matt Damon in lead, to be released in theaters Nov. 2015. Based on the fantastic book written by Andy Weir, self-published in 2011 and re-released in 2014 (thence becoming famous). The trailer for the movie has got the critics comparing it to 2014's Interstellar (in which Damon had a cameo roll) that received 5 Oscar nominations this year, none in the major categories. I thought matthew mcconaughey deserved best actor until I found out he won it last year. Great movie and 2 bits Damon gets his first best actor award (the role is as complex and exciting as it can get, if the movie script follows the book) for The Martian which should be every bit as good or better as Interstellar. In the meanwhile, if you haven't done so, download Interstellar.

But Interstellar was a load of self indulgent Nolan nonsense.

(Ed: ^ retardent)

Yes. An interesting premise but it didn't really float my boat.

Harry, I presume you to be an American, hence sentimental. Fair assumption? Therefore, romantic. You saw nothing so tear-jerking as Guy Pearce's character having fooled himself? Let me give you a very similar, but more juvenile premise as a comparison in Johnny Depp's character in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Window which was a good movie. I repeat: the premise behind Secret Window was juvenile compared to Memento but it was a very, very, entertaining movie (besides Depp I'm a big fan of John Turtoro). Memento put Nolan into the stratosphere of great directors.

^He ain't gonna be happy

Yes. An interesting premise but it didn't really float my boat.

OK, back to today (July 15, 2015).

I just found a review of Interstellar in which the reviewer wants to see it twice and not only is her review in between viewings but it's dated July 15, 2015. First of all there are 720p and 1080p blueray YIFY torrents available on piratebay (select the magnet link, obviously): https://thepiratebay.mn/search/interstellar/0/99/200


Here's the review on moviepilot: Interstellar: A visually stunning, well executed Sci-Fi film that is actually scientifically accurate | moviepilot.com

"Interstellar: A visually stunning, well executed Sci-Fi film that is actually scientifically accurate"

Today I saw Interstellar the new film by Christopher Nolan which centers on humanity that is on the brink of extinction and the only way to save humanity is to go through a wormhole and find other habitable planets for a new colony of humans. Interstellar is directed by Christopher Nolan and stars Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Casey Affleck, Michael Caine and Mackenzie Foy.

There are few positives to this film which are: the story is very good, the story progression is perfect, the acting is outstanding, the film is visually stunning, the film is very intriguing and has tense moments. To expand, I was really impressed from the quality of the story as it hooked me from the start and even through to the end; the plot is very interesting and I have heard people mention problems with the plot but I don't really agree with them as my experience was different. One thing that I knew as soon as I exited the cinema is that the film needs re-watching to understand fully, the plot is quite complex and I understood it watching it this time but seeing it again would make the film easier to understand and I'm pretty sure I'd pick up things I didn't spot this time. For a 3 hour film, the expectation is that it is going to be slow and drag but there is so much happening in the film that the length and pace that is set is perfect. Also the acting in the film is phenomenal and because of Matthew McConaughey's performance I felt attached to the characters in the film which made many of the sections of the film more tense and I was on the edge of my seat for large portions of the film; finally the visuals in this movie are breath-taking they are just gorgeous and makes the film worthwhile just from them, it is art.

On the side of negatives my only problem with the film was the final 45 minutes which I understood but got very trippy and odd, this means that I am unsure what to think of the end. Thankfully with rewatching it will mean I will get a clearer understanding of my impressions of this section.

Overall I thought Interstellar was a fantastic film with many interesting plot points and ideas which were very intriguing and because of this and the other reasons I have mentioned I rate this film:

9/10

(Ed: I agree with this assessment.)
