Daft Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 There Will Be Blood Just stunning. I loved every second of it. It actually lived up to my hype. 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaggle64 Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 There Will Be Blood Just stunning. I loved every second of it. It actually lived up to my hype. 10/10 Oh Jesus christ, I've just checked the listings for my local mutliplex. They're not showing There Will Be Blood or No Country For Old Men, but are showing National Treasure 2, Definitely Maybe, Underdog, Ocean's Thirteen and Dirty Dancing (yes, Dirty-bloody-Dancing.) This sucks considerable bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Welcome to my world Gaggle. Imagine that on a monthly basis, but times the local cinemas by three. Anyway National Treasure Book of Secrets Its good! 7.9/10 I hope theres a third one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually lived up to my hype. 10/10 Man, this isn't playing in any theatre in Merseyside, or even, as far as I can tell, The whole North West. I really want to see TWBB, but I might have to end up watching it by illegal means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaggis Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Wes Craven. Lol. When he's good (Scream, Red Eye) he's great but when he's not (Cursed) he's terrible. -- Right, I tried watching 300 again, without being completely hammered this time. Can you guess what I'm going to say? It was even fucking worse. I just got so bored, other than the amazing style, I'd rather watch it with the sound off so I don't have to hear some of the terrible dialogue and am able to watch Gerard Butler half naked in peace. Yawn. 2.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mundi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 It´s starting to look like your trying to get someone to snap back at you about 300. But your not doing that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaggis Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 It´s starting to look like your trying to get someone to snap back at you about 300.But your not doing that right? I'm not, honest. I thought I'd give it a fair try, seeing as I was a little hammered the first time. But I just don't see the appeal of it, other than the style of the thing. It looks sort of like Sin City right? I've never seen that, is it any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mundi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Yeah they are similar except to the black and white parts. What sets them both a part (by miles) is that Sin City has an interesting story But yeah Sin City is great, need to watch it again though... haven´t seen it for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jav_NE Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 The Heartbreak Kid I wouldnt say this was a hilarious comedy, more of romantic-comedy. The funny moments did make me laugh out loud occasionally, most notably the sex scenes, and the love relationship is well managed so that we dont end up hating the main character (he pursues another woman on his honeymoon). Altogether, i found it enjoyable to watch and generally hoped to see a satisfactory ending, which it supplied without being cheesy. Good stuff. 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Aye, Sin City blows 300 out of the water. 300 is a fight scene, the graphic novel was one big wank fest for Frank Miller. Sin City is cool, smart, and has a wicked sweet story. Oh and Alba. Seriously, you cant even compare to two in terms of quality IMO, Sin City is excellent and Im not even that big-a fan of it.

gaggle64 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 With 300, they appear to have made the fatal mistake of deliberately attempting to create a film that's that's so bad it's good. The inevitable result was it was just plain bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyson Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 300 was a great film, I loved it. With 300, they appear to have made the fatal mistake of deliberately attempting to create a film that's that's so bad it's good. The inevitable result was it was just plain bad. No no, you're thinking of Snakes on a Plane (Which I loved the first time and was bored with the second time). 300 looked great and seeing as how I actually didn't know what was coming, the story itself was great to experience in that way.

Oxigen_Waste Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well... 300 is a great action movie. End of story. But it's not supposed to be anything more than that, so it's a success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaggis Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 1408 Interesting at the start, but then like an overplayed song it begins to get boring. At one point (where everything froze) I laughed at just how plain wierd it had gotten. Not scary in the slightest, though I thought the end was fantastic. 6.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mundi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well... 300 is a great action movie. End of story. But it's not supposed to be anything more than that, so it's a success.

Dan_Dare Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well... 300 is a great action movie. End of story. But it's not supposed to be anything more than that, so it's a success. I think it's great. It captures Miller's original art work ridiculously well, and is feverishly in line with the idea of the events being legend as opposed to history. The super strength, hyper pace, immediacy of character traits etc- it's all a fantastic take on Myth in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish you could be there every time my friends start slating it for being unrealistic... or just in general when people start saying that I agree on that the movie captures the novel immensely the thing I thought the story in the novel was much more interesting than the movie.
