Christmas Tree 4858 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Super 8 Excellent 8/10 Best way to describe this film is like a mixture of The Goonies, Stand by me, ET, Jaws and King Kong. If you liked a few of them you will probably love this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Inside Man - Shit. Waste of a terrific cast. Spike Lee has directed several really shit films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 (edited) Eagle Eye - Utter turd. Steven Spielberg produced "thriller" supposedly like Enemy of the state, in fact it's a sci-fi film with a HAL style AI computer that can make anything in the world happen. Zero plausibility, tension, involvement, empathy, excitement. An abundance of fast cutting, confused action, explosions and car wrecks. Harry Potter - The last one. Great stuff. Thought there'd be more of a battle, but it was always more in the background. I guffawed when Voldermorts bloodied foetus showed up and the rest of the cinema was totally silent . Snape's flashback was lush though, Neville's heroism too. I was certain one thing would happen, was disappointed it didn't, but was then pleased by the denouement. Throughout all the films my biggest problem has been with the plot (Rowling's part). I've not read the books, but that shouldn't leave me at a disadvantage as a viewer. There never seems to be any thought out logic to how the story moves on, Harry just 'senses' a hawcrux (or whatever) and they move on to destroying that one using some method or other. Hermione makes some leap of logic I don't quite follow that may refer to something that was mentioned in book 1...and we're off to another location. For some reason or other, Hagrid is tied up in the woods....presumably just so he can make an appearance. Kids films though, you can let it off, but stops the series being up there with Star Wars (originals) or LOTR for example. The action itself and the 3 main characters are up their with anything from those films though. 3D was nice too...just added depth, didn't point things at the audience. Lots of Leone type shots of eyeballs in the foreground and huge rooms expanding into the background. Edited August 19, 2011 by Happy Face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 529 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 The Inbetweeners. Tried not to get my hopes up, especially after series three disappointed, but it was very funny. They nailed so many things about lads holidays or just generally lads out on the piss. Some of the holiday romance stuff was a bit wank but even they paid off with laughs.

angrysteve 0 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Cowboys & Aliens - Enjoyable enough up to a point. Inbetweeners - Some genuinely hilarious moments but as a whole it disappointed me when it became a string of cliches. Much preferred the TV series.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Anti-Christ. Bizarre. Certainly an experience. Wouldn't go so far as to call it good, the prologue was the best bit. But it reminded me of Audition.....which is similarly slow growing before a horrific end. I was agape. Wacky would love it. Loads of tits and fanny. Meenzer as well because there's a bit of cock too. Once they get onto the explicit genital mutilation though, it's not quite as erotic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) As recommended on here: The Verdict. Not a bad yarn 8/10 Skeletons. Weird as fuck. I can't decide whether it's good or bad. Jury's out on the vote. EDIT: Forgot to mention 25th Hour. Okay. 7/10. Love the way the detective says "sheeeeeeeit" Not recommended on here: Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. Another blast from the past. 8/10 Deliverance. 7/10 Tombstone. Okay, but not the best wezzie ever made. 7/10 Edited August 23, 2011 by snakehips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
