A strange film, isn't it?

Bored the life out of me tbh.

Tangled - going through the Disney back catalogue with Toddle D, this was one of the better ones.  Good twist on the Rapunzel story, laugh out loud moments etc  7/10

Brave - - Enjoyed it, good scot-bantz and moments of wolf based peril 7/10 as well

Really? I wasn't bored, I was not sure what I was watching, it was clearly not a comedy, it takes you right in the middle of the Communist power struggle in the USSR as if you don't need much context, yet it plays with the historical facts. If I had to greenlight it as a project, I wouldn't be sure what to make of it.

I was disappointed with it, especially in light of the rave reviews.

Scarface was on the other night. Obviously seen it loads of times but watched it again. What a fucking film. Al Pacino is fantastic. One of the most believable characters in film.

Also Pacino: (re)Watched Sea of Love over the weekend. Pretty good film with Al and Barkin working very well together. 6.6/10

Xtro - Can’t believe films like this are coming out on Blu-ray, my brother and I used to rent this at least three times a month back in the 80s.

 

Xtro is one of the most batshit insane films I’ve ever seen. A woman giving birth to a fully grown man, 6ft toy soldiers coming to life, panthers randomly strolling around London flats, snake eggs being eaten, demented clowns, spaceships and French Au Pairs getting their kit off.

 

Make no mistake, Xtro is shit, but it’s ridiculously entertaining shit.

Inside Out

 

Switched it off after 10 minutes.

 

Fucking absymal.

 

0/10

One of the wrongest posts in here. Genius film.

[Scott_M]

Gran Torino

 

Don't ask how, but I never got round to watching this until now.

 

Top notch film. Ending was superb in every sense.

 

9/10

One of my favourite comedies.

[Scott_M]

The best thing about The Matrix is the soundtrack.

 

WAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEE UUIUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPP

Tom Cruise should of won an Oscar for Magnolia. Brilliant performance, unless he was just being Tom Cruise.

I don't like Scarface. Its been discussed on here before but I've tried to watch it at least twice and turned it off.

Magnolia is a magnificent film, the Darwin-style death story at the beginning is stuff of legends.

[Numero Veinticinco]

I've not watched that one.

I've not watched that one.

You can thank Greycellgreen after you have watched it for introducing you to a very good and under-appreciated film. It is a bit weird at times though.

[SammyAftershave]

Magnolia is full of wonderful nuanced performances from an ensemble of excellent character actors.........and then there is Tom Cruise who jumps up and down shouts and gesticulates a lot but was out-performed by, among others, a veteran Jason Robards whose character was locked in a coma. Cruise really doesn't belong in the same company, the jumped up shouty midget Scientology weirdo.

Blood Simple

 

It's really complicated and I haven't fully understood it on first viewing but if I can understand it I reckon it will be brilliant. Will have to watch again.

Scarface is good fun, but "believable"? Presumably Stig was being a touch sarcastic there.

[Anubis]

Couldn't get further than ten minutes into Magnolia. Not because of the acting, but because of the constant incidental music which was getting on my nerves. If somebody wants to produce an incidental music free version I'll happily give it another go.

Red Sparrow - 10\10

 

Shit film. Watch it alone with some Kleenex and skip forward to the good bits.

[Ted]

Scarface is dreadful.

 

Carlito's Way is a far superior Pacino/De Palma film.

Can't stand anything I've seen that is directed by De Palma totally overrated and don't get me started on The Untouchables.

 

Can't comment on Carlito's Way never seen it which is mainly because of what I've just wrote.

I'd give Carlito's Way a go, I'd forgotten it was De Palma who had directed it as it's pretty unlike his other (totally OTT) stuff.
