DomDom Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Vertigo ( 1958 ) A tad bit too long, but almost perfect and engrossing stuff here. Watching James Stewart go mental towards the end is tense stuff, but his descent into madness is hilariously bad when it comes to that daft arse imagery. You can forgive that, because the majority is simple but effective. 9/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyTON Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Elf (2003) It's Christmas after all, and it has Zo in it, so it can have a fun and generic 'good'. Ferrell and Caan put on a good show! 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaltyTON Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 my favourite christmas film 10/10*awaits SaltyTON to criticise my movie enjoyments as always* Nah, it was good Christmas movie, just found that it was about too reliant on basically the one joke all the way through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyTON Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Are there any decent Christmas films coming out this year? There's nothing much Christmassy except Christmas Carol this year. I guess Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 will be kinda Christmassy, but that's about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping for some pish like "The Holiday" or something of that ilk that me and the missus could go and see.

Tryfield Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 I watched The Green Mile on Sky + last night. Great film. 8.5/10 I'd give the Green Mile 9/10. Made me weep like a big wean. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Law Abiding Citizen - Not bad likes, would probably be a 6 or 7 out of 10. Definitely above average. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Die Hard 2 ( 1990 ) More festive fun from this sequel which while it doesn't match the first movie, it's still absolutely loads of fun. The ending is a bit grating though, with it's "everyone learns a little something in the end" style. This really keeps going at a break neck pace when the action gets going and doesn't come up for air once. Some great comic relief all over the place whether it be in the airport in the form of McClane himself, or in the sky from his wife and the annoying c**t of a man on there with her. Lots of explosions and gunfire and stuff to chew on. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Ally Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Transformers 2 - 10/10 - Great film both films are 10/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_binos Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Might as well post this here. Anyone know if 'The Hangover' is any good? Asked santa for this comedy, looks superb. Also, anyone recommend a good hijack or prison film? Seen the usual plane hijacks like Air Force One, passenger 57 etc but many more good one's out there? How about gid prison films bar the usual Escape from Alcatraz and Shawshank Redemption. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_BCFC Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Constantine - 3/10. It wasn't quite awful cause I watched it til the end. Mind numbing nonsence though watching a guy fighting demons. Man of Earth - I got a bit bored by this one too. A guy claiming to all his teacher friends that he was a 14,000 year old man - and Jesus. All set in the same room as well. 4/10. I also watched a film and the name escapes me. Bacially it was about lots of ghost Nazi's killing some people in a bunker trying to salvage a machine the Nazi's invented during the war to make their soldiers invincible. 2/10 Poor day for movies for me yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for prison films, i really enjoyed The Animal Factory and i recently bought Scum. Both are worth a watch anyway. Just remembered An Innocent Man. A bit cheesy, but decent enough action to pass the time. Edited December 14, 2009 by Gall09 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about combine your two selections, kill 2 birds with one stone and go for ConAir? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_binos Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Aye, agree that Animal Factory, An Innocent Man and Con Air are all top notch films. Sadly, I own them all . May have a look for Scum and see how people rate it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the stuff in it is top notch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
