Park Life 71 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Hannah: enjoyed it more than any of the "Bourne" films. 4 out of 5. Really loved it as well. Fantastic backdrops and mise-en-scene encompassing the dark forest, grimms fairytales and other wonderments... Way above its station in ideation. 8.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 the western talk put me in the mood to watch one, "acquired" a high def version of the magnificent 7 Class film. The 'original', i.e. The Seven Samurai is worth checking out too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46174 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Watched Superheros. The documentary from HBO about real-life superheros. It was pretty entertaining, but hard not to feel a bit sorry for some of them cos they're basically just friendless loners wandering the streets getting the piss taken out of them.

Happy Face 29 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Rise of the Planet of the Apes An excellent 90 minutes of the mental anguish of a monkey slowly turning against people, spoiled by a ridiculous 20 minute action scene that's the most boring part of the whole film. Well worth it for the good stuff though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Neds - Quite a disturbing film about a star primary school pupil growing up in the roughest part of Glasgow whose life fucks up and descends into violence. Some odd bits thrown into the mix, particularly the ending but even that i eventually thought was an interesting way to end what is a typical and well known story. If you want gritty British violent drama then its a good engaging watch. Well acted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hannah: enjoyed it more than any of the "Bourne" films. 4 out of 5. Can't take female assassins seriously so I highly doubt its better than the Bourne films which imo are top class. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for now.

Not on the same all encompasing level as Bourne. Agreed. She's hot though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46174 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hanna? She looks about 14 you dirty bastard! Started it last night, but stuff got in the way. Gonna watch it later in the week. It started off decent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly better than any that spring to mind from the last 5 years. I've not seen The Escapist though, so don't know what kind ogf benchmark the director had set.

Don't get me wrong there were some nice toches like when he draws 'the window' in his little cage on the wall. Great idea. This kind of film really needs an epic landscape if you know what I mean...Too may interiors and close ups...etc... Needed to get the ape out into the wild somehow...(Just thinking aloud)..

Park Life 71 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Yeah cause Bourne turning the gas on and putting a newspaper in the toaster which blows the whole house up in 3 minutes is so believeable.

angrysteve 0 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Kill List, quite tense and brutal, right up to the end where it completely lost it's way and tried to be too clever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
