heedthebaa Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 PRECIOUS A film centred around a coloured lasses upbringing in Harlem. Heart wrenching, sad, but at times kinda funny. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowden til i die Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Seven 7.5/10Good cast and really good idea. Even though he wasn't in it long, Spacey nailed the twisted character. Loses half a mark because I don't like Brad Pitt as an actor. Casino 7/10 I think I remember someone saying this was Goodfellas in a casino and they were right except it was slightly better. Another good cast with De Niro and Pesci playing fantastic parts. Not sure if it was so long but there was just 'something' missing. Philistine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsd Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Just back from watching Sherlock Holmes. Even with Guy Ritchie directing we thought it was very good. Robert Downey jr and Jude Law make an entertaining double act. Good updated version. Definitely a sequel planned. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowden til i die Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I still cant believe Downey Jr is playing Sherlock. Not for me. It may be an ok film but it wont have the feel of a Sherlock Holmes film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde4life Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Law Abiding CitizenIf you like a good revenge film, make sure you watch this. It's brilliant. Gerrard Butler's American accent is highly unconvincing but apart from that, it's got a good cast and the story is pretty gripping. They d an excellent job of keeping the viewer confused about which character (Fox or Butler) isin the right and who's side you're really on. I won't give too much away here but if orture scenes in films piss you off, you're in for a treat here. It never gets graphic but it leaves you in no doubt how grusome some of the stuff is. I was watching Lethal Weapon a while a go and some folk were torturing Riggs to get information out of him. They were electrocuting him with a big stick and he didn't tell them anything. That's shite. All you'd need to do is walk in, take a sharpened HB pencil out your pocket and say, "This is a pencil. I'm going to push it slowly up your penis until you tell me what I want to know." Anybody would spill immediately. So, watch Law Abiding Citizen. 9/10 Just finished watching this. Decent movie, 7/10 perhaps. Points off for the poor attempt at an accent, but plus points for his character's name being Clyde lol Thought they way the judge copped it was superb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwififer Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Dirty rotten scoundrels 7.5 out of 10, just for when Michael Cain hits Steve Martin in the legs with a cane when he is not supposed to feel it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden til i die Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Something, Something, Something, Dark Side The second volume of the Family Guy/Star Wars series. While it wasnt as good as the first one it was enjoyable enough and had a few laughs. Lots of Star Wars references(nah!) which made it very watchable as the original Star Wars films are awesome. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kejan Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 In The Loop (2009) Got this gem for Christmas. Just fantastic. Capaldi, no doubt will be typcast as Tucker, but truly fantastic and very funny. Some of the put downs and liners from him are excellent. A lot of LAUGH OUT LOUD moments, and already excited to watch it again in the next few days. 9/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did shit myself initially though as you just didn't expect that, i thought it was going to blow up Ice Age again, got the box set for Christmas, almost as good as the Lion King.Still 9/10. Steady! As tremendous as Ice Age is, the Lion King is still a good distance ahead of it. I'm on SkyPlayer on the Xbox just now so I think another film will be in order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gall09 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 21 Grams - 8/10 Great film. Straight from the start, scenes jump from present day, to the future, and then back again. At first it's a bit confusing, but all comes together as the film goes on. The three main characters are played brilliantly as their lives are thrown together by a tragic accident, particularly by Naomi Watts, who is probably my favourite actress. I've not seen a film she's not been great in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
