Happy Face 29 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I didnt find that film funny or feel that it had a particularly good moral standpoint either. Not to mention the dubious decision to have a love triangle featuring a 40year old man and a 16 year old girl It wasn't a love triangle at all. He just liked her. She reminded him of his youthful exuberance which his married life had stolen from him. Thou shalt not think that any male over 30 that plays with a child that is not their own is a paedophile, some people are just nice. ....unless he tried to kiss her. Did he? I can't remember actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the dubious decision to have a love triangle featuring a 40year old man and a 16 year old girl Then you've (unsurprisingly) missed the point of the film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 10682 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Seen the Dark Knight the other week, amazing I thought. So stick that up your arse Iron Man! I really enjoyed them both for very different reasons. Both could have done with being a few rungs up the rating ladder like. There's no way The Dark Knight should have been a 12A and Iron Man should have had the freedom to be written as a more adult film. I totally understand why neither of these things were possible, before anybody starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay 10 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Yeah i liked Iron Man as well, just taking the piss over recent comments about the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Carr's Gloves 3809 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Hellboy 2 loved it. Respect duly given to the bros boy for a decent performance. Selma Blair is well sexy and I have not seen Ron Perlman in anything I didnt like. Better than Dark Knight for my taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21800 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 seen a few recently no country for old men - i thought it was classic. nice to see the cohens go back to the dark side. they do it as well as they do comedy there will be blood - it was an enjoyable performance from day lewis but i was expecting something more gripping after all the hype. could have had half an hour shaved offf the length or me the dark knight - loved it. belting performance from heath ledger. the only thing that annoyed me about the film was the totally gay voice christian bale put on everytime he donned the batman suit.

I know what you mean, but if he had the voice altered electronically straight away there would be too much separation between Batman and Bruce Wayne imo. Maybe in the next film there'll be a voice modulator thingy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 21800 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 i honestly thought it was too long, as is the case in many modern films. there was no need for that film to drag on for almost 3 hours. i was really enjoying it, but like lots of films i've seen recently, i think it would have benefited from being half an hour shorter - the editors should have done their job and took their heads out of their arses. the last hour just plodded along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
