Dolly Potter MD 0 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Saw a copy of "Salo" the other day, but opted not to purchase it. I only the know of it by it's reputation - sick stuff, hasn't dated through sheer content contained in the film. Not meaning to sound off-beat, but it sounds like [through it's content] a groupie flick for pedophiles. Somebody will correct me, wasn't Passolini [the film's director] murdered by a sexual abuse/pedophile after the Salo's release.

I saw it once, not particularly good, if it weren't for the shock factor then no one would have heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 71 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Monsters. What a strange and fantastic film. Looks like low budget and feels like it, but is truly magical. Highly recommended and available now on rivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Salo was released it was instantly banned in many counties because of its' highly controversial nature - paedophilia being the main point of contention.

Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 The Condemned - Stone Cold Steve Austin and Vinnie Jones lead a stellar ensemble cast in this gripping and culturally relevant action flick. Basically Battle Royale but with these lot in place of the schoolkids. Jones is funny in the movie and hams it up admirably. 3/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruler of Planet Houston 1 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 The Expendables - a collection of the worst actors in history with bad facelifts and seemingly no real plot. I couldn't help feeling uncomfortable watching Sly talk through that pumped up face with "just for men" beard. I fell asleep! 0/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I'm Not There Casey Affleck follows Joaquin Phoenix around as he orders prostitutes, does cocaine and acts like a total heed the baal. 100% recommended. I'm Still Here? I'm Still Standing? I'm Blue Da Ba Dee Da Ba Da? I'm Ron Burgundy? Going to see The Other guys tomo. Is it up there with Anchorman or down there with ,er, one of the shitter Will Ferrell movies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 6583 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 The Other Guys 6.5 out of 10. Some funny moments but i think the actors thought this was funnier than it actually was. It also drags on a bit towards the end . Could have have been 15 minutes shorter as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
