Seen any good films lately ?

[Spanish Seagulls]

Dogging - A Love Story. It amused me.
Precious. Very good film & makes you look at the way you can ofter stereotype people, well it should anyway, meaning the character being a girl many would not normally root for. ( Certainly wouldn't root!)
Pans Labarynth. Excellent, I missed it first time around so looked it up & loved it. ( Still can't spell labarynth though)
Valkarie. Tom Cruise is surprising strong in this, I didn't expect it to be so good

I've seen lots of great films over the past year because of the internet & lots of good film sites so these are just some that spring to mind.

Best thing though has to be Weeds, not a film but brilliantly made TV....Thats another thread though

Defiance - good war film about jews hiding out in woods.

Harry Brown was awful. Poor British version of the decent US's Grand Torino.

Shutter Island more like Shut Eyeland. Messy, confused plot and unnecessarily bloated in the middle. Acting good though. Saying that it's had mixed reviews but I definately think the poor ones that are nearer the mark.

You honestly think Gran Torino was better than Harry Brown.

 

[example45]

harry brown is brillant

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Gran Torino was better than Harry Bown but Harry Brown in itself was a good film , certainly not awful

 

[footychick]

Didn't realise Plan B was in Harry Brown.

Alice in wonderland and harry brown are good.

The Pianist. That Mr Spielberg is how to make a film about the Holocaust.

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Saw Alice last week and thought it was pretty good

District 9 was great

Hurt Locker was OK

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

The Pianist. That Mr Spielberg is how to make a film about the Holocaust.

yeah Schindler's List was utter shite after all.

 

[Scampi]

yeah Schindler's List was utter shite after all.

No it was a good film, but the Pianist is a great film.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Horses for Course, I think Schindler's List is far superior but the Pianist is good particuarly the 1st half and then it lost its way somewhat just became " bloke trying to evade enemies " type of film.

I saw Observe & Report and I liked that. I bought Law Abiding Citizen last year from a chinaman and was glad it was cheap because it is one god awful piece of shit film. I saw Star Wars and am going to watch Empire Strikes Back in a bit. I have seen some other films this year but I do not remember them. Oh yes, Hancock. cock.

Nanny McPhee

 

[black & white seagull]

Saw The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo last night. Pretty good as book adaptations go. The soundtrack isn't great and rather distracting, but overall I'd recommend.

I've seen lots of good films this year, but my opinion is not valid because I am a woman and I know nothing of these matters.

I actually think what you say in jest.

I quite liked Observe and Report. It has a reasonable message behind it re mental illness and Bipolar disorder. Gets better as it goes along. Definately worth a watch as its a bit different to the usual Hollywood fare.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Try the 2 magician films. The Prestige and The Illusionist. Both very good imo although the Prestige is better.

 

[Nibble]

Prestige is very good
