Film 2008

[Barrel of Fun]

Were there any explosions or robots that transformed into helicopters though ?.

Do they even compare to seeing Mirren in the buff? She may be 30 odd years my senior, but by heck she would (have the honour of) get it.

Hotel Rwanda - 9.4

Kingdom - 8.7

 

[London Calling]

Just watched Donnie Darko, I didn't have a clue about the film b4 seeing it, we picked it up off freecycle.


What an absolute classic.

Did he have an absolute classic last dream of his life, was he just a twisted head, did he have access to time travel,

was he just a loser and loner or for once he had 20 days of joy.

Who knows, great. Good 80's music.

Drew Barrymore, she's ok, looks dirty some times, but can't see why she's highly rated?

In the late 8's for me.

LA Confidential - it's okay i spose, I got a bit bored by it if I'm honest. 6.9

 

[Yorkshire-Seagull]

Sideways - fantastic road movie with a difference. Truly excellent. 8.7.

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

Twilight - cinematography is awesome, looks like a gap advert the whole way through. Acting was adequate. Scripting - horrendous! Pattinson - hot. 7.8

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

Che - Part one

Powerhouse performance from Bencio Del Toro, really shows the struggle the rebels went through right up to the battle of Santa Clara. Surprised if he doesn't at least get nominated for an Oscar after this. Can't wait for part 2!

Sideways - fantastic road movie with a difference. Truly excellent. 8.7.

The first time i saw that was as an in-flight movie coming back from Canada one time.

The "trying to crash the car into the tree" scene was the only time in 35-odd years of flying I've ever heard everyone on board a plane laugh out loud at the same time...

 

[Easy 10]

At the same time as what ?

Post on here what Slumdog Millionaire is like, I'm planning on seeing it on Sunday

At the same time as what ?

At the same time as we crash-landed on the Andean glacier and slipped into a downward spiral of cannibalism.

You can have the feet.
I hate feet.

Where is the Film 2009 thread ?

 

[brightonlass2009]

.Rec - 9.5. Brilliant horror film and the one made in the last decade that actually freaked the hell out of me.

 

[Spider]

Magnolia - 10

FInally saw this after loving all the rest of PT Anderson's work. It didn't dissapoint, and whilst I'm not sure I fully understood the point of the raining frogs, it didn't put me off, whilst the rest of the film was exceptional.
