paranoid android Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 It's terrific. Let nobody say otherwise. It is indeed - Robert Donat is one of my very favourite actors of all time. As much as I do love that film, it does resemble an elaborate series of Harry Enfield sketches. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecto Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Just watched Legend, with Tom Hardy playing both Ron and Reggie Kray, decent film, but strange seeing one man playing both roles 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Hardcore Henry. Basically watching a mate play a FPS on a big screen. OTT, bizzare and really not sure what was happening half the time. 7/10(mostly because of Jimmy) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the jambo-rocker Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 The Thing 9/10 One of those films I haven't watched in a while. I forgot how all out tense and terrifying this film was. The scene with the dogs is one that isn't going to leave the back of my retinas any time soon. "Yeah f**k you too" might just go down as one of my favourite film quotes ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It ticks all the right boxes for a scary, suspenseful atmospheric movie. Even with it being nearly 35 years old the special effects still work and it keeps the tension going.

JamieT1314 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Watched loads of the films the past wee while: Hunger Games - 7/10 - enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would. Hunger Games: Catching Fire - 6/10 - revisiting the games format felt a little unnecessary, thought they would get straight into the rebellion. Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 - 7.5/10 - thoroughly enjoyed this, was the film that the second one should have been. Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 - 6/10 - Pretty poor finale to the whole story, kind of lost interest halfway through and thought the ending was pretty poor. The Mutts were clearly men in spandex suits. The Reef - Group of folk go sailing off the coast of Oz, boat hits reef and capsizes. Few folk decide to swim for an island they cant see. You can guess the rest. Was a random pick off Netflix but thought it was really well done for what it was. Built up tension well in places. 7/10 The Boy - Maggie from Walking Dead (wid) travels to England to be a nanny for an old couple in their old stately home. Turns out the boy is a doll. As terrible as it sounds only kept watching due to Maggie - 4/10 The Invitation - Dinner Party for a group of friends goes a bit wrong. Enjoyed this, fairly tense throughout and pretty well acted 7/10 Star Wars The Force Awakens - Felt they have played a bit safe with this, although after the shambles of the prequels cant really blame them. It felt like a remake of ANH at points however I ended up really enjoying it and looking forward to the next one. 7.5/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampden Diehard Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Recorded (nearly said taped there...) French film Betty Blue a wee while ago and am only 2 and a half hours through it (another hour to go) as of yesterday. Basically the adventures of a seriously sexy, mental and sensual young French girl and her boyfriend. The numerous smutty bits aren't what you'd call porn, and all the better for it. Simply two people "gettin' it on"; excellent. A bit rambling, but a classic that you should seek out. 7/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11thHour Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Terminator: Genisys - 6/10. Jason Clarke was absolutely shite as John Connor, Jai Courtney was not too bad as Kyle Reese - First time I've seen him put in a decent performance. Emilia Clarke was meh as Sarah Connor. Thought Arnie was solid throughout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightswoodBear Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Top film, an absolute classic. The chair scene is my, personal, favourite. That clip ends just before my favourite line from that film "I know you gentlemen have been through a lot, but when you find the time, I'd rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Celtic Pride 8/10 No it's not about them it's a film about the Boston Celtics Basketball team. They are going for the NBA championships and are up against Utah Jazz with one of the Wayan brothers starring for them. 2 Celtics die hards ( Dan Akleroyd and Daniel Stern ) take things into their own hands to help their team try and achieve glory. Quite cheesy but it has a few cracking one liners in it, one of my all time favourite films. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyVanBasten3 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Top film, an absolute classic. The chair scene is my, personal, favourite. Such a claustrophobic film. This slightly edges Halloween as Carpenters best imo. Plus it's got Mr diabetes himself in it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Legend of Barney Thompson. Excellent performances from Carlyle, Winstone and Emma Thompson. Very funny film - 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Machina Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 10 Cloverfield Lane - 6/10 This was a solid 8/10 film all the way through for me until towards the end which I thought was so dreadful it knocks two points off. Goodman played his role perfectly imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Mad Max: Fury Road 5/10 They went a bit too far. I much preferred the originals, which were classics. This just felt like it was trying too hard. Instantly forgettable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
