Happy Face 29 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Black Snake Moan Samuel L Jackson chains Wednesady Addams to his radiator to cure her nymphomania, after Justin Timberlake has left her to go to war. Supposably based on Silas Marner, I've not read the book, but if it's anything like the film, it's shite. I'm guessing it's not though. A shame because I quite enjoyed Hustle & Flow which was the directors previous film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 2 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Pulp Fiction. Still the daddy. I first saw this film when I was about 11 years old. I must have seen it a dozen times at least by now, not that I watch it particularly regularly. Makes you think, how many times will I have seen it by the time I'm 70? Or how many times will I have listened to Definitely Maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 24 Eyes Winner of the 1955 Golden Globe for best Foreign Language Film, it also beat out Seven Samurai to win the poll of Japanese critics. It charts the life of a rookie teacher and her students from the point she takes on her class of first year students in 1928 to a reunion she has with those remaining in 1946 following the end of the war. An anti-war film without a single shot fired, it's gorgeous, though the singing/crying can get a bit too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 99 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Watched a couple over the weekend: American Gangster. Was canny, better than I expected though not so different to Blow. Based on actual events apparently. Bucket List - Well I enjoyed it But then with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson you should be getting a half decent flick.

Jimbo 172 Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 Watched two lastnight: Superbad: liked it, better than American Pie. Eastern Promise: OK, was expecting more of a twist in the plot, rather an anti-climax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo 172 Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 In the hands of the gods the true story of five young British street kids as they go on a journey across the Americas to Argentina in the hope of meeting their hero, Diego Maradona. The kids use their football freestyle skills to busk across countries where handouts don't come easy, impressing the crowds to survive. It's a journey that tests the limits of their friendship, talent and guts as they fight to meet their lifelong hero. Enjoyable ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1217 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 No Country For Old Men. Thoroughly enjoyed for the most part but I'm not convinced about the ending. If I get my head around that though it could turn out to be one of my favourite films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wor lass asked me to get it off Amazon for her so I thought I might as well watch it too before sending it back. It was just a typical good v evil fairy tale but I thought it was quite well executed. De Niro was good as the cross-dressing pirate captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Shrek The Third Feared the worst after the first ten minutes, but it turned out to be quite enjoyable. Certainly as good as the second one. Syndromes and a Century I don't think I've ever been so bored. The fumes going up the extractor was lush, but there's no narrative whatsoever. Just a selection of scenes, some repeated almost word for word in the second half. I got it as Sight and Sound loved it (review) and it was nominated for the Golden Lion, perhaps I'm a bit slow and it was way over my head, if anyone else can confirm it's a case of emperors new clothes I'd be grateful.
