Zygo Ape Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Jesus Christ Superstar: Please dont ask me why i watched this. Please dont ask me what it was like, im slowly trying to erase it from memory and please dont remind me of the blind geezer in the desert singing in a loincloth with his dong hanging out the side of it I want that 1 and a quater hour of my life back... ZERO OUT OF TEN
Shorty Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Star Wars Ep III - 7.5/10 Started off really poorly, Hayden Christensen seemed to be bored, completely underplaying his character. I thought I was going to be disappointed all the way through but around the point where he started down the "dark side" the whole movie turned around and became quite good, including the acting
BlueStar Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 BATTLE ROYAL ROCKS! I only saw ten minutes of it a few months ago.. were did you buy/watch it? It's awesome, I got a VHS of it off ebay for like £2. A friend of mine works in a comic shop and gave me a Battle Royale T-shirt he got free through work that was too small for him. Front Back
EchoDesiato Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 King Kong (2005): Good movie, amazing special effects. The first hour of the film was boring as hell though. No need to explain the story, I assume everyone pretty much knows it. 7/10
James Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Miami ViceVery cool movie, stylish, realistic and not a lot of bs like you see on most movies. Great actors and cars too. The whole movie screams Micheal Mann. I enjoyed the film aswell, but found it difficult to follow because the accents from some of the actors were so strong I couldn't here what the fuck anyone was saying.
knightendo Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 The best thing about my trip to the cinema was the Orange ad with Steven Seagal! Amazing! Laugh out loud stuff. Sionerra! that was also the best bit about going to see Cars! that and the casino royale trailer :D
The3rdChildren Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 E.T. on ITV2 earlier (technically last night). It has a puppet alien, which is endearingly cute and contains a legless boy inside waddling it about. It is also a cleverly filmed piece of cinema that never ceases to bring to a tear to my eyes. Also the concept of a flying bike is one that fills me with hope. 9/10.
Hellfire Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Shadow of the vampire Nice movie, even though its boring, wonderful actors, specially William Dafoe.
Babooo Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Rented out the 40 year old virgin......not bad, did make me laugh a couple of times but other than that, unfulfilling and uninspiring. I've never liked these kind of movies anyway....I'll give it a 6/10.
Yoshiking Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 V for Vendetta: Like a cross between The Matrix and Sin City. Pretty damned excellent. 9/10
Domstercool Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 The Bodyguard (Not the Whitney one, This is a Thai film). 7/10 It was a funny action film. They are some really strange funny moments like when the guy squirts the main character up the bum with a water pistol and his bum shakes in rhythm. Very unique, lol. It also has a cameo of Tony Jaa and he even calls the main character Humlae. For all the people out there that don't know, he was a character in Ong-Bank
Roostophe Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Airplane! Brilliant comedy film. I don't think I need to say much about it. Again, Wikipedia is your friend. 9/10
Guest Stefkov Posted August 7, 2006 Posted August 7, 2006 Kingdom of Heaven: I kinda like it, sometimes i couldnt understand a word some of the saracens(?) were saying which spoilt it for me, even on the second time i watched it. still good 7/10
L.J.G. Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Princess Mononoke Whoa this film is amazing I just saw it on sunday on Filmfour and it was one of the best Animes I have ever seen (well I've only seen four animes but they were all class films) and I strongly reccomend anybody who hasn't seen this film should watch the repeat on Filmfour (Freeview channel 31) at 4:45pm on Friday. 5/5
Monopolyman Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai Well, this came out of no where. I original was going to watch a little bit after The Motorcycle Diaries (also good) on Film Four the other day, but I was so immersed I ended up watching the whole film. I assume it's about the western (and world) influence of the Hagakure, but nevertheless a great little indie, and certainly the best gangster/urban/samurai hybrid I've ever seen, even if it is really a simple revenge story. 9/10
gaggle64 Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 V for Vendetta - An entertaining but somewhat nerdy adaption of the classic comic book. Hugo Weaving does well as the mysterious V, alongside a couple of decent supporting performances including John Hurt rather excellent turn from Stephen Fry. However Natalie Portman is rather flat as the stories heroine, and much of the subtlty and politics of the comic book is lost to some unweildly dialogue, but the high action sequences just about keep things ticking over. 7/10 "Underneath this cloak I wear a bullet prooof vest. And bullet proof vests are bullet proof."
The Bard Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 V for Vendetta. 3/10 It was so damn boring. Points for Natalie Portman (if thats her name)...mmn she good...
Zygo Ape Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 V for Vendetta. 3/10 It was so damn boring. Points for Natalie Portman (if thats her name)...mmn she good... Even in her Bald state? Ive yet to see this main reason being that my mates havnt got the patience to watch anything with a structured plot or anything without guns/cars. Dont worry, ive hit them many times:indeed:
Zygo Ape Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 Fair comment. You should watch more of Closer and less of Star wars before you fully judge though. Id still give her one.
knightendo Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 I'm gonna say it: Natalie Portman can't act. neither can keira knightley but you still would... would be impolite not to.
Dan_Dare Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 She can act. She's just been mentally disturbed by Lucas' 'scripts'.
Zygo Ape Posted August 8, 2006 Posted August 8, 2006 She can act. She's just been mentally disturbed by Lucas' 'scripts'. QFT, even though i loved Star Wars The only actors to come out of the Prequal trilogy with some credibility were Ewan McGregor, Sam Jackson and Yoda, but i dont think he'll be getting any more offers
The Bard Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Even in her Bald state? Ive yet to see this main reason being that my mates havnt got the patience to watch anything with a structured plot or anything without guns/cars. Bald chicks give me teh horn . don't worry though she wasn't a scunner for the whole of the movie. Dont worry, ive hit them many times:indeed: That makes me happy...
Konfucius Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Actually I think she's pretty good. If you watch Léon (that film with Jean Reno), she's only 12 there with little acting experience and still pulls off her part credibly. But if the writers don't give her good lines to work with it's not really her fault.
