Bought this before Christmas, not got around to watching it yet. looks like i should make the effort.

 

 

Gossip - i couldnt even tell you the story line.

Corpse Bride 8/10, Fantastic Four 2 5/10, Babel 8/10, Great Expectations 10/10, Dust devil 7/10

 

Correct score. Interesting film though.

 

Teeth - 6.3/10 At least it was different.

[RedKnight]

Speed Racer - 5 out of 10. Visually stunning, with loads of bright, startling imagery and candy floss colour scheme. Unforunately the movie seems content to pander to the young and as a result, the older viewer feels left out no matter how much they're willing to commit to the movie's strange world of bright colours and odd physics. I can't understand Warners committing the amount of money they did to the movie as it's youth orientated sensibilities and outlandish visuals was never going to be huge box office.

Mad Detective: 8/10

 

Hong Kong film. I can't think of another cop film like it. The scene in the Gents is hillarious.

[Ezekiel 25:17]

Nick and Norah something something, shit, the skinny guy from Superbad and Juno plays the EXACT same part once again, in fact, was this Juno ?? if there had been a child I would have thought so. His novelty has wore off real quick. 4/10

[paulie walnuts]

Into the wild 10/10- exceptional film

[Tom R]

Unleashed on ITV1: minus 47512/10

So appalling I don't even know where to start.

 

Adulthood - minus 4/10

 

Turned it off after about an hour bruv, innit?

Total fucking shite. Can't stand that pathetic "knar wha am sayin and ting?" accent that didn't even exist, anywhere on earth, until about 8 or 9 years ago, when pathetic skinny white London dick heads started listening to far too much Tim Westwood.

Innit.

Bruv.

Blud.

 

Cunts.

 

The Wrestler - 8.5/10

Great script and perhaps the most believable lead character I've seen in years. The part was just written for Mickey Rourke. I think it was more poignant for me as I was more than aware of the the self-destructive elements to life that both "Ram" and Rourke share. You could just see that some of ROurke's tears were genuine and from himself, not from his character.

I'd have scored as high as 9.5 had the ending been just a little more conclusive, and I think it could have been a longer film by at least a half hour. But I might be being a tad harsh there.

Bottom line is that I was touched, and even genuinly concerned for the central, albeit fictional, character for a long time after leaving the cinema. That's a very rare thing in film terms, and far more than I expected.

I am Legend

 

Would've benefitted from a plot. 4/10

 

Read the book Cath, much better and a much much better ending than that hollywood ending.

 

Let the right one in - Think it was Swedish, but great story of a boy who befriends his new vampire neighbour - sounds shit but isnt in the slightest - 8/10.

Good shout. It appears some on here have totally missed the central point of this film. This is a grown-up film about 'Humanity' and all it's failings. Repped.

I heard it was much better and funnier than it actually was... so I was disappointed but it was a good watch as it showed how dumb George W Bush is...

 

6.5/10

[SCOUSE TAPAS]

The Hurt Locker Iraq. Forced to play a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse in the chaos of war, an elite Army bomb squad unit must come together in a city where everyone is a potential enemy and every object could be a deadly bomb.

Really enjoyed this,gives you a insight to what is going on in Iraq,and what it is like out there for these guys.It's well worth a watch even if you dont like war films,as this is not like any other war film I can think of. 9/10

[Tom R]

Man On Fire.

 

The Rossmeter is broken

 

6/10

 

No way man!! It's your brain that's broken!!

 

Man on Fire is a BRILLIANT movie!

 

Now bend over and spread your cheeks...

[Duncan Clench]

Sorry I'm late...

 

Slumdog Millionaire: 8.5/10. Really rather good although my girlfriend felt it didn't quite get across how smelly Mumbai is. What?

 

Into the Wild: On Mr Ross's recommendation. 7/10. Didn't like it much while I was watching it, but afterwards though "Yeah, that's actually good".

 

The Darjeeling Ltd. 5/10. Odd.

 

Stepbrothers: 6/10. Funny in parts but a waste of time.

 

Cloverfield: 6/10. Starts well but gets boring.

 

40 year old Virgin: 8/10. First time I'd seen it. Laughed my arse off in parts.

 

The Illusionist: 7.5/10. Really quite enjoyed it but it's not that good.

[Christian]

Slumdog Millionaire 9/10

Loved it

[hamstrung]

No way man!! It's your brain that's broken!!

 

Man on Fire is a BRILLIANT movie!

 

Now bend over and spread your cheeks...

 

It was alright but all that cheesy pop video slow mo stuff got on my nerves.

 

If there was no cheesy pop video slow mo stuff then I may have been drunker than I thought.

[Tom R]

Blue Bayoux is one of my all time favourite songs!

But the Roy Orbison version, of course.

¨Saw three films over the weekend...

 

No country for old men. Ace 8/10.

Reality bites. Ordinary 5/10

Atonement. Overrated. 6/10

Aye. There were some good, if a little predicatable, parrallels with Ram and Pam the stripper as well. Both professions are exploited and degraded for money by the mindless, and then thrown on the scrap heap etc when they're time is up.

Both are viewed as pieces as meat and not as human beings.

A little predictable, as I say, but it was good nonetheless.

[Mr.SB]

12 monkeys. Made me think.

 

9/10

[captainharris]

Pineapple Express.. 7.5/10 - Very very funny in parts. The stabbing with the fork scene had me crying with laughter as did the foot through the windscreen. Unfortunately, when it became an action flick at the end it kind of lost momentum and went totally off track.

 

Tropic Thunder.. 6/10 - Very average. Wouldn't probably had not even raised a smile without a brilliant performance from Downey Jr. I expected more from it.

[Antynwa]

untraceable

 

It's just a shit saw
