Smurph Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Bad Neighbours 0/10 Despite the good reviews this was so shit that I left after 15 minutes. That Seth Rogan really is a c**t. Definitely not going to see this now after your scathing review after a whole quarter of an hour. Amazing Spiderman 2 was pretty good but not as good as everyone was raving about. Ending was very weak I thought and felt really rushed, even though it was a long film, and they just wanted to tie everything up quickly for the next one. The death also lacked emotion and it seemed like he forgot about it quickly. Rhyno completely underused despite being on the poster. Enjoyable enough though. 7/10. Really need to up my cinema game. That was the first time I've been in two/three months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 X-Men: First Class 5/10 Just watched this recorded from the telly last night. One of the origins ones. It was basically the Cuban Missile Crisis with some mutant back stories and a couple of action scenes. Fassbender was good, McAvoy way too earnest. They never do a very good job of getting Professor X to explain why it's better for the mutants to work with the humans. But yeah, it's a bit of a tick box exercise... How Pro X ends up in a wheel chair, how him and Magneto meet and become friends, 'hilarious' cameo from Wolverine. Jennifer Lawrence's blue boobs are better than Rebecca Romijn's though. I always figured these origins films were going to be shit. It's not that shit tbf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 The Winged Serpent? Think I'll be adding a few titles from your marathon to our rental list Nah not that Q, this is a French flick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Invincible True story of Vince Papale who walks off the street and plays in the NFL for the Philadelphia Eagles without any college football experience. Mark Wahlburg and Greg Kinnear star, Elizabeth Banks is also there for something pretty to look at. Just a feel good film which I like as an NFL fan. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Seven Pounds Really enjoyed this. Will Smith changes the lives of 7 people before committing suicide (Death by jellyfish) Very emotional story but Smith played it well 8/10 -6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerSaint Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Bad Neighbours was always going to be shite and uninspiring. It's a standard Seth Rogen film with a tired premise. There was also absolutely no reason why the wife was Australian. No reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pseudo-emotional shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We normally take turns and I was going to spring for 'The Wind Rises' at the Artoplex but the sun wilted us into early submission and we watched the nearest unwatched DVD. I'm sure the whole series is dotted around the house in some form or other so I dare say I'll see them all eventually before I die. It wasn't terrible, hence the halfway decent rating, just not my bag really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forehead7 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Bad Neighbours was always going to be shite and uninspiring. It's a standard Seth Rogen film with a tired premise. There was also absolutely no reason why the wife was Australian. No reason. I enjoyed it. Is that a tired premise? Can't say I've seen too many films like that. Her being Australian didn't bother me, she was a college exchange student who fell in love with Rogen. Nothing ridiculous about that. And the impressions scene was absolutely hilarious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Perhaps because Rose Byrne is Australian? Not sure if you're serious here. I don't know if she plays it as an Aussie for a reason or why the guy is a bit annoyed about her playing it as an Aussie, but she played a Yank in Insidious so she's obviously capable of the accent. I don't know what the issue is but thought I'd just point out her capabilities 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 "Seven Pounds" is up there with "Mo' Money" and "Little Women" in a list of films that you'd have to give me the title to consider watching them again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Paranormal Activity the marked ones. Not too bad, bit more of a storyline to it than he last one. 6/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
