DarkBlue62 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Rush I don't know anything about Formula One in the 70's but I really enjoyed this film. Cracking watch, even if you're not a racing fan. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamdunk Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 vandetta For a film with Danny Dyer in it, it was not too bad a storyline. SAS son avenging his mother and fathers murder, was made a bit spoofy with some of the killings. Split in half by hooking a rope to the car and tieing it to the guys legs then driving with his arms attached to another rope which was tied to the wall. Cement poured down a guys throat and his body was rock hard. The ending was poor as well. 6/10 Starring Stuart Dickson? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The OP Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 12 Years A Slave - Did not disappoint me one bit after the hype. Compelling, brutal and emotional, and never overly manipulative. 10/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The OP Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 The Wolf of Wall Street - Who knew that hookers, drugs and Lamborghinis could be rendered so fucking boring and feel so empty. Very disappointing film, although occasionally funny and interesting for the 3 minutes where he entertains the FBI guys on his boat. 5/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasgowlichtie Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 A Bronx Tale - 7/10. One of my favorite mob movies and its good seeing De Niro play a different part to his usual gangster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurph Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Mandela. If I wasn't completely devoid of emotion I reckon I would have been in tears at certain points. My mate was crying throughout. Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Mean Girls - 8/10. Not what I'd normally watch... ahh, who am I kidding this is right up my street. Great wee film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smurph Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Breakfast at Tiffanys. Was alright but I was under the impression it was going to be a lot better. Not really my kind of film though. 6/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quentin Taranbino Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 August: Osage County - 8/10 Great film. After watching this, I really really hope Meryl Streep gets the Oscar for best actress - she is fantasic in this! Lots of really solid performances, some interesting and thought provoking storylines and just a great watch. Frozen - 8/10 Finally got round to watching this and wondering now why it took me so long. Another superb Disney film and been humming and singing the tunes from the film since watching this. Is it wrong to find a couple of characters cute Dallas Buyers Club - 7/10 This is all about Matthew McConaughey! He is utterly brilliant in this and makes the film what it is. The film itself is good, not great but McConaughey deserves reward for this showing. Jared Leto also pretty decent in supporting role. Well worth a look. American Hustle - 7/10 Liked it, didn't love it. Thought Bale and Lawrence stole the show in terms of performance. Was certainly watchable and fairly enjoyable - best film of the year? Nah I don't think so. Saving Mr Banks - 6/10 Loved the scenes with Emma Thompson. Hated the flashback childhood scenes. Found myself get a bit bored in the middle of the film. Wasn't a bad film, but not sure it's one I would watch again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Riddick - 6/10 Daft sci-fi nonsense but watchable none the less. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Friday night was 'Wolf of Wall Street', Saturday during the day was '12 Years a Slave'. Both were superb pieces of storytelling and both had me repulsed and disgusted in equal measures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie95 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Frozen A really great movie, the characters were great. It's Disney going back to it's best work. 9/10. American Hustle Great acting from everyone involved, the Oscar nods for best actor, actress, along with best supporting actor and actress are really understandable. It's a good film but it isn't amazing. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Left Wing Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Lone Survivor. Based on a true story, although how much truth is actually told, I don't know. The only decent thing to come from modern warfare is a few decent movies. I liked it 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Burton Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 The Wolverine 8/10 Much better than the first solo wolverine film. The number of mutants is dialled back and the first half builds up a decent story. It's really only the ending which is a let down as it descends into normal comic book fair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not out till the 31st, however, most of us seem to acquire them by some other means.

stumigoo Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Anyone seen 12 years a slave? I'm hearing lots of good things but I'm just not really that interested in it. I went yesterday. Its an excellent film but definitely not for everyone. It is pretty tough going for the majority of it, and it is a very 'straightforward' film in terms of how the story is told, no sentimentality, just a warts and all 'this is how it happened' type film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
