6/10

 

extremly good fighting scenes, very little else

My Wife bought me a Western trilogy for Christmas and True Grit is one of them, i'm in two minds in which one to watch, the new one or the original first? Someone who i've never met in my life decide for me please.

 

Do the new one first; it's better apparently.

 

As your SS provider I carry weight on this issue and command you to do my bidding. I know where you live, remember. Don't make me give you a warning.

Better than the original? I find that hard to believe. But I will make time to watch it, although I love the original and can't see for the life of me why they would want to remake it. I saw an interview where Bridges said they ignored the original and went from the book.

 

The same tossers (Coen Brothers) fucked up 'The Ladykillers' so they have form for it.

[Mendoza]

Tossers eh? I'd say greatest filmmakers of their generation might be more appropriate.

I present to you 'The Ladykillers' and I rest my case.

 

I could add 'oh brother where are thou' if I wanted to be nasty.

 

But for killing my favourite movie of all time by remaking it so badly and for managing to persuade Ton Hanks to participate they are truly tossers.

 

I'll reserve judgement on True Grit until I have seen it.

[rubble-rouser]

Tangled - 5/10. Very bland.

[manwiththestick]

Winters Bone. 8/10. Really good.

[Ted]

I've not seen Winter's Bone yet, but I know I want to bone Jennifer Lawrence. FIT.

Paul - Dragged up to see this for Valentines night, i wasn't expecting much and i was pretty much right. I like the Pegg and Frost, Shaun of the dead was decent and i really liked Hot fuzz but this was really disappointing. The story was bland and i hated Paul the alien, my wife asked me midway through it was i enjoying it and i told her i can't as i hated Paul, she then told me it was voiced by Seth Rogan which just about topped it off as i can't stand him, i put him up there with Brendan Fraser as atrocious comedy actor dickheads.

In fairness to Pegg and Frost it still got a few laughs from me in parts but overall this was just bland shite, it's with a new director as well which explains why the style of the film is so different to the other two films.

 

I'll give this Close encounters of the 4.5/10 kind. (it got 4.5 as it did give me a few laughs, Paul is still a cunt though)

changed it to 4.5 as i just remembered again how much i hate Rogan.

Whoah there! (That's English for "stop a horse")

 

Edgar Wright isn't directing it? My anticipation level for this just went down to defcon three.

Greg Mottola is the fuckers name, he went all American on the film.

Bad Boy Bubby 9/10

First time I saw this film I was a teenager('93), thought it was fantastic back then, just bought the blu-ray and it still is! Great, twisted and wierd. Like it says on the cover of my edition: "One of the lost gems of world cinema"

 

Armadillo 10/10 Go and buy it.

[loadsoftrophies]

Ahhh Bad boy Bubby, what a insanely great film.

Into the Wild 8.5/10

 

Stunning cinematography and a top notch adventure/road movie that was great to watch.

 

Not too soppy either.

[Mendoza]

Bit of trivia- Stallone was originally attached to Beverly Hills Cop in it's early stages of pre production, but walked away due to 'creative differences.' His ideas and script re-writes eventually turned into Cobra.

[Funkasy]

How can you say that about Cobra ? at least he must score some points in nostalgia value.

Cobra 1 / 10

 

Mr Eastwood would kill him for beakfast.

[Sut]

Oh dear. Clyde could take down Cobra. Clint need not even get involved.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Oh dear. Clive could take down Cobra. Clint need not even get involved.

 

Who the fuck is Clive ?!

 

Anderson ?!
