manc-mag 1 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Hostel - beneath contempt. Class man. Hostel 3 wants to be better than 2 though. I haven't seen it but that's some review all the same No words of damnation can carry the same deterrent as an endorsement from HF to be fair.

Dr Gloom 22189 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 i actually quite enjoyed hostel for what it was. a film of two halves. first half - porn, second - slasher/horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22189 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 films i've seen recently: downfall - total class. just a bit gutted i chalked it up on dvd a week before it was on telly. 5/5 rosemary's baby - loved it. creepy and atmospheric throughout although the ending was a bit of a let down. 4/5 kung fu hustle - good cgi and amusing in places but i'd had enough about an hour in. 2/5 miller's crossing - an early-career corker from the cohen brothers. 4/5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ending is perfect. One of the best films ever made tbh. i dunno. i loved the film. it was beautifully paced and creepy in a way modern horror films aren't - mia farrow just seemed to a little too accepting of the endgame to me. i thought she'd put up a little more resistance to assuming her role as mother of satan tbh.

Guest alex Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Fight Club- never fails to impress The book's better (It is btw. I do like the fillum too though). Watched 'A Room for Romeo Brass' last night and I have to say I absolutely loved it. Heard a lot about Shane Meadows' films without having seen one and I'll be checking them all out after this. It's one of those dark, gritty British films that has a good mix of (black) humour and poignant nostalgia which makes you sad and want to laugh at the same time. More than a little bit of Mike Leigh about it too. Which is no bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
