Abdul 0 Posted February 12, 2012 Adjustment Bureau 7/10 - good but somehow bland at the same time. The sitter - 7.5/10 - pretty funny but bored of that fat guy now. Man on a ledge - 8/10 - good film, kinda similar to that film with the bank heist and the dude living in a wall. I would've given this 7/10 but the chick has still got my mind spinning so 8 it is. Contagion 0/10 - trailer looked good, worst frickin film ever, you're constantly waiting for the good bit which never comes! I've watched so many over the last year as I get in free, can't bloody remember any of em now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joebloggsVR69 0 Posted February 12, 2012 Glad I'm not the only one who hated Contagion :lol: What a waste of time that was, the only reason I stayed in the cinema was because the tickets cost a tenner! I was hoping the whole cast would die... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted February 12, 2012 watched the social network last night, good story well told but wish he didn't talk so frickin fast, missed half of what they were on about 7/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GusPW 0 Posted February 12, 2012 The Lives of Others - 10/10. Just brilliant. Story built around how the Stasi operated in East Germany before the wall fell, great story and brilliant acting. In German, so with sub titles but still magnificent. Won a hat full of awards including the Oscar for best foreign language film. Agree with this^^, amazing film. Tyrannosaur 9/10, quite gritty and visceral but convincingly acted, Peter Mullen is brilliant in it. Nothing to do with dinosaurs by the way. If you like this sort of film NEDS (non educated delinquents) is also worth a watch, directed by peter Mullen I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon green 5 Posted February 12, 2012 Drive 8/10 Ryan Gosling played the lead really well ! not a lot of dialogue by him,but found the film very gripping from the start, would have given this a 9,but whoever did the music score wants a swift disembowelment !

VR6 0 Posted February 12, 2012 The music in Drive was fantastic - I think it helped the 'feel' of the film tremendously! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted February 12, 2012 Hangover pt 2: 2/10 utter garbage. Don't think I laughed once. Films like this seem to be relying more and more on trying to get laughs through sheer bad taste because the writers obviously aren't clever/witty enough to write something genuinely funny. Horrible Bosses: not much better than the above. Best thing was Jen ;) Also watched Return of the Jedi recently for the first time in years. Always been and Empire man myself, but really enjoyed it. 9/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lewvw 10 Posted February 12, 2012 Yeah I love Star Wars, I recently bought the Blu-ray box set, just got to ep.3 which was great in hi-def (i don't hate on the prequels like some fans:smug:). Looking forward to seeing the originals in hd! ---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 PM ---------- Last night I watched a Korean film called 'I saw the Devil' which was pretty brutal tbh, very well acted though and a must watch for thriller/horror/foreign cinema fans 9/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted February 12, 2012 I liked the prequels. 3 is superb and isn't too far off the originals IMHO. The other 2 are very patchy though. Both have some superb moments. 1 has long periods where nothing much happens and it all feels rather dry. 2 has some absolutely hideous acting and terrible script. The love stuff could've been handled sooooo much better. I always forward through those bits :lol: Seeing Ep 1 in the cinema next week- not too worried about 3D, but it's a perfect opportunity to take my boys to see it on the big screen 8) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4eyes2wheels 0 Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) TT - Closer to the edge - great documentary about extremely fast bikers. Guy Martin is a legend. Absolutely rivetting, real heart in mouth stuff. a must for anyone interested in bikes or motorsport. 8/10 Edited February 20, 2012 by 4eyes2wheels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lewvw 10 Posted February 12, 2012 They killed off Darth Maul too soon though I reckon, but then i suppose that wouldn't have fitted with Palpatines pursuit of Anakin. But I agree about the love dialogue, some of the most cringe worthy in film I reckon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wullie 1 Posted February 15, 2012 Journey 2: The Mysterious Island. Took the grandson and a couple of his pals to see this. They loved it. I found it quite entertaining but predictable but then it's for kids and I probably thought too much. 6/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iR6 0 Posted February 15, 2012 'Let the right one in' on Film 4 tonight at 10.55 well worth a viewing :) 8/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sexybourbon 0 Posted February 15, 2012 Watched unthinkable the other night about an american turned islamic who plots 3 nuclear bombs and hands himself in only to be tortured by the gov trying to find the answers , was gripping and really makes you think what goes on in the world you dont see , deffo worth a watch 8/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted February 16, 2012 Watched Star Wars Ep 1 3D yesterday. Superb on the big screen- cinema was packed at lunchtime! Yeh, it's not the best, but worth watching for 3 scenes imho: the sea monsters/pod race/Maul vs Qui-Gon & Obi-Wan. My boys thought it was amazing. The 3D certainly isn't a selling point though. It added some nice depth, but sometimes you just couldn't tell. All the 'retro' 3D films I've seen have been like this (Clash of the Titans). Really isn't worth retro-fitting 3D IMHO. Filmed with proper 3D cameras like Avatar, and it works really well- thankfully The Hobbit & Prometheus are being filmed like this 8) . Me: 7/10 My boys: 'A million out of 10!'

lewvw 10 Posted February 20, 2012 Chronicle - 8/10 a really interesting take on teen's with superpowers n'all that. It's filmed from a handycam point of view, Cloverfield style and is done just as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

V-Dubstar 0 Posted February 20, 2012 Just finished watching 'Blitz' with good ol' Statham - 6/10 Not a bad storyline I guess, with some brutal violence at times The Crow - 9.5/10 Haven't seen this bad boy in yrs, what.a.film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scarlet_vr6 0 Posted February 21, 2012 I also agree about The Crow - top marks from me for a fabulous film! Haven't watched it for ages either but for no apparent reason, I thought of the song his band plays earlier tonight... I think it's called It Can't Rain All The Time? Burn by The Cure is great too. Must watch that again soon! Thank you for the reminder :) I wasn't feeling my most lively over the weekend so I watched a few films; Appleseed which I loved and looking fwd to seeing the sequel and also a few chick flicks. Most enjoyable! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim1 1 Posted March 18, 2012 We watched Senna for the first time last night. A very compelling and insightful look at Senna, and showed why he was loved and respected by so many, especially his home nation. Even if you're not a fan of F1, this is well worth watching. 10/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig 0 Posted March 18, 2012 Warrior 8/10 very good and not just a mindless fight flm, I would have changed the ending slightly if it was me but I wont say anymore as to not spoil it. Rum diary 6.5/10. Good film, easy to watch and nice scenery, one or two funny moments just felt it never really had a true point to it? Cowboys and aliens. 6.5/10. Some good action and in blueray visuals are great but it just didn't ever wow me with the plot or storyline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
