WhiteRoseKillie Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Hitler, the greatest story never to be told. 10/10 An interesting view on Hitlers life without the propaganda and demonisation. Sorry Wis, but I really can't read that without wondering whether to laugh or cry. Do you have a link for "Uncle Joe Stalin - a laugh, a joke, and a purge!"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Private Resort Mid '80s teen comedy starring a young Johnny Depp as a horny teenager ganting for his hole in a Florida beach resort. Trashy and cliched but fairly entertaining and with enough titties to keep things interesting. 5/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Foxcatcher - 7/10. Was a bit slow generally and the boys scowling puss started to annoy me after 10 mins. Steve Carell was very good. Whiplash - 8/10. Enjoyed this and the Nazi guy from Oz must be in with an best actor shout. Birdman - 7.5/10. Reminded me of Woody Allen even though ive only seen 2 of his films. Got Requiem For A Dream for tomorrow night. Seemingly a well made, gritty film about junkies in NYC with parts filmed in Brooklyn. If this doesnt hit 9/10 in my scorechart nothing will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Pires on the Wing Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I found Birdman a bit naff. It's quite boring and bland. Nothing much happens, and the characters aren't very interesting or endearing. Didn't hold my attention, caught myself looking at the time on my phone a few times. Wasn't funny either. And to tell you the truth, I never even really noticed the whole one continuous shot stuff, one of the biggest selling points of the film, until after I'd seen it and started reading some reviews. 5/10 I might go see it again tbh, everybody else seems to loving it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I can actually understand that, which is weird. I loved it to bits, but I did think when I left "those characters are going to leave some folk cold" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Wild 4.5/10 Not sure why this has been praised so much tbh, pretty standard troubled woman goes on journey to find herself and comes out other side stronger and happier type story. Was reasonably engaging, nice scenery, Laura dern was good, Witherspoon was not bad although I wasn't buying her in her junkie period, but there's a sort of dishonesty to these types of films where there's like a hollywood sheen over everything so you don't really believe it.

ScotlandGer Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Requiem For A Dream is my favourite film ever. Perfection. This film kills me every time I watch it. I end up on the verge of tears no matter, not embarrassed to admit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Requiem for a Dream is grim stuff. Makes Trainspotting look like a Disney film. One of those films that should only be watched late at night when you're feeling miserable anyway. Unless you're suicidal; don't watch it then FFS Pisses all over that Noah keich. π is excellent too. Ashamed to admit that I haven't seen any other Aronofsky films -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostin' Kev Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 FFS Requiem For a Dream was pretty bleak. Really good though could have watched another 100 mins of it. That bit at the end when he's on the phone to his girlfriend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) American Sniper. 7 out of 10. Would have scored higher if it wasn't for Cooper holding a doll in one of the scenes. Looked very naff. They showed that clip on The Last Leg last night. FFS! They were saying that there were two babies supposed to be there for the filming, but neither one turned up, so they just shoved in a plastic doll and hoped nobody would notice. Saw the Theory of Everything today, excellent imo. A lot more humour in it than I expected and as already mentioned the two leads are superb. 9/10 Edit to add: There's a scene in a French hospital and I thought the guy playing the doctor looked familiar from something I've seen before, just had a look on IMDB and it turns out that it's Frank Lebouef the former Chelsea and France defender!

BFTD Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Folk don't like The Dark Knight now? Well I never. It's only six years old BTW; it's not like we're talking about those old Spider-Man kung-fu films from the Seventies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
