I tried to watch the first Hunger Games on Film4 the other week, lasted about half an hour, I have no idea how adults can watch that shite.

 

*unless you're having a sly Jennifer Lawrence tug, in which case it's fine*

[Hand Shandy]

Sly?

[Mook]

Sly?

 

I like to have There's a Riot Going On up to 11 on the stereo when I smash one off.

[The Golden Eel]

Watched Death Proof earlier - liked the first part a lot, wasn't so keen on the second, maybe 7.5/10

[KopOut]

Fury.

Best I've seen in a while.

You know it is good when you pause it till the kids fuck off.

Having said that I've not seen a good film in a while and I think Pitt is ace. 8.48/10

I'll raise you 0.02

 

Great entertainment. The mood pulled me right in - cinematography brilliant. Pitt did well.

 

I thought the 5.1 was superbly mixed - a nice full frequency sound w/o losing it's dynamic range, and although we're saturated these days with cgi, I thought the lazer type effect worked well for the tracer.

 

I'll be going again before it leaves town. Best war film since Private Ryan. Lest we forget.

[Kobayashi Maru]

The Hobbit - Battle of Five Armies.

 

The weakest in the series.  Feels like a filler and fairly rushed with even the VFX looking tired and shonky at times. 

 

7.5 / 10 

[KopOut]

Inception

 

Cinematic genius from Chris Nolan. Dicrapio excels.

 

9.5/10

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Well after having a shag we decided to watch "Guardians of the Galaxy" in 3D.......I personally enjoyed it, great visual affects, a nice splattering of humour, Groot a tree with attitude and Rocket Raccoon. 9 "I am Groot's out of 10." 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Tusk - Weird shit 7 - 10

[Duff Man]

Fury - 7/10. Good, but nowhere near Saving Private Ryan, for me. There was just something a little bit implausible about it all. Decent, but not great.

[Jose Jones]

Aeroplane binge in order of film goodness:

 

Boyhood - Totally loved it.  8.5/10

Guardians of the Galaxy - I'm bored of Marvel mainly, but this was good fun. 7.5/10

Edge of Tomorrow - Watchable guff.  Cruise was good, and whilst I am a man of peace, Blunt in her fighting gear was tremendous.  7/10

Begin Again - Like a celebrity Once which is a bit ironic considering the theme of the flim - presumably understood by John Carney, which makes it a bit weird.  Mark Ruffalo gets almost all the points here. 6/10

X-Men Days of Future Past - Pretty rubbish and the time travel made no sense, neither did a great deal more of the plot.  Waste of some great actors.  5/10

Lucy - Mostly shite.  Will someone please give Morgan Freeman a decent film for once?  4/10

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

Watched Django again last night. Waltz was phenomenal. Brilliant film. Again though, it did seem to drag a bit towards the end, but there isn't much I would cut out to be fair. 8.5/10

It's a bit weird that he wears sunglasses 80 years before they were invented.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Di Caprio is also boss. He improvised the part where he smeared blood over her face. He slams the glass down early in the scene, cutting his hand bad enough to need stitches, but just carried on.

[JagSquared]

Under the skin - weird film with Scarlett johansen getting her arse and tits out a fair bit. Atmospheric, creepy and a touch of the unknown building it nicely until it just ends with a whimper. Shame it had potential - 7/10

 

22 jump street - funny on the whole some dodgy bits but it a silly film not designed to be taken seriously. Some laugh out loud moments - 7/10

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

I can't say that I noticed to be honest.

[Duff Man]

Yep, probably his best performance imo.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Nightcrawler.

 

Only watched this due to some of the reviews in this thread. I think Gylenhall is decent, loved Zodiac, but I found Nightcrawler strangely reminiscent of Drive (?!).

 

Best film I've seen for a bit, really enjoyed this quirky pic, and thankful it wasn't some Marvel / spandex thing.

 

7.7/10

[Mak46137]

Hobbit- the battle of the five armies.

Poor.

Really disappointed. Cgi was weak story weaker.

These films should of been called

A fucking long walk,

Are we there yet,

Shit, got to walk back now.

[cochyn]

St Vincent.

 

5.25/10 for the film

 

8.94/10 for Bill 'Groundhog Day,Ghost-bustin'-ass' Murray.

 

Were it not for Murray, this film would sink without a trace. It's pretty forgettable fayre for the most part: formulaic plot, clichéd characters and hackneyed dialogue. There's some nice bits and the overall story is sweet enough. Fuck knows what Naomi Watts' character adds to the film. Anyway, No doubt Bill Murray will at least get his oscar nomination for this, and he'll probably win. 

[Stickman]

Watched Death Proof earlier - liked the first part a lot, wasn't so keen on the second, maybe 7.5/10

 

 

Didn't think it great either but I guess the second part did have this....

 

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

You're right, too. I'd kick my own Mum in the face just to watch her play backgammon.

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

I watched "The other guys" again the other night. Still love it. It's stupid but funny. The whispering fight at the funeral still cracks me up just thinking about it. - 8/10

[Rick Sanchez C-137]

MacGruber

 

Low budget, terrible acting, effects etc, but top quality spoof. Cult-classic. 8.2/10

[Guest Pistonbroke]

John Carter............8  Martians out of 10. 

 

Having read the Edgar Rice Burroughs Barsoom series as a nipper I quite enjoyed this film version based on the first novel "A Princess of Mars."

 

I'm going to order the whole Barsoom series of novels and give them another read, great books. 

 

BTW, that Lynn Collins who plays Dejah Thoris would get it all night long.
