ReZourceman Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Zombieland That was freaking sweet. Its only the second film I've seen him in, but Jesse Eidenberg is totally awesome. I was slightly worried he might be a bit of a one trick pony, but emotionally he was a lot different from his character in Adventureland. The cast was amazing IMO, all four of the main characters were interesting, and funny. Obviously hot chick is sexual. Woody is amazing. The cameo was sweet. The violence was ridiculously OTT, and funny and I loved the running theme and text placement of "The Rules" And the fricking FINALE WAS IN A THEME PARK!!!!!!!!! thats just begging me to love it. 8.9/10 :bouncy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Zombieland And the fricking FINALE WAS IN A THEME PARK!!!!!!!!! thats just begging me to love it. Just curious...how that a spoiler? It's in the name of the film.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 The Mothman Prophecies I was most disappointed by this movie. I'm not entirely sure what I was expecting, but this certainly wasn't it. Amazingly boring, I had to turn the volume up to hear the bloody characters speaking. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPAMBOT4000 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Halloween II Begged my mate over the phone to see Up instead and she said she "Didn't like Pixar films" as she thought "Kung Fu Panda was shit" Yes, I DID point out that KFP isn't Pixar but by then her mind had been made up - Up was going to be shit and she wanted to go and see anything else so this was her choice. It was okay. Typical slasher movie, took itself a bit too seriously in parts but all in all there were many unintended LOL's. Completely average but I enjoyed myself as, unlike the rest of the theatre that night, I find horror killings hilarious. Wouldn't ever want to see it again. After we got out she said she hated it and wished we'd gone to seen Up. "I'd watched the trailer after we got off the phone and it looks pretty good actually"..... GRAH! Why she didn't tell me this between our phone call and buying tickets at the cinema I'll never know. I just hope Up is still around at our tiny little cinema next week.

Paj! Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 So...I just joined LoveFilm on a free trial thing, "WORTH 18.99!?" apparently, but it seems I'll only get charged if I rent 3 DVD's, so I'm gonna get 2 for now, and see how that works out. Question is, I can't think of a second film. I'm gonna get Manderlay, the sequel to Dogville by Lars Von Trier, but need something else. Any recommendations? Not at all into comedy films or romcoms or anything. Likewise shit action films. I like more thoughtful stuff...think it was Ganepark that recommended me Waking Life, and that was great. Or even a TV show to get the first series of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chairdriver Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Sixteen Candles I was so unimpressed. A shite script, with a story of no substance. The fact that the whole film was about her trying to win a guy she'd never spoken to before said alot. Lacked any sort of soul. A shite, shite copycat mess of The Breakfast Club (which is TOO stunning). 3/10 --------- Alice In The Cities I don't think I got the point of the film. It was just scenes of them travelling about. About an hour longer than it needed to be, since there were loads of scenes of them just driving about...? Alice was played by a really great actress, where the adult actors seemed a bit wooden. She managed to make the portrayal of the relationship heart-warming and cute. Technically a really boring film, and quite miserable throughout. Felt pointless, but then not, because it's lovely to have the feeling you've watched a friendship bloom. 5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or even a TV show to get the first series of? Try Before Sunrise... also by Linklater (Who directed Waking Life) It's a really interesting film about just two people who meet on a train. Then Before Sunset is similarly good and follows on very nicely.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mundi Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 The Orphan Possibly one of the greatest things I have witnessed. I went to this expecting a mediocre horror flick and what I got was a hilarious comedy hidden in this horror flick and somebody forgot to tell the director. Everybody in the cinema laughed at this films attempt at horror and attempts to be tense. I have rarely had so much fun watching a film, and not because it was good. I really don't do the out of 10 score thing, but in this case an exception must be made! 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairdriver Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Solaris Good story (? I didn't really understand it...), but pointlessly, pointlessly long. As in, there's a 5 minute scene with a camera attached to the front of a car on a motorway. And most of the start seems really irrelevant to the rest of the film (probably means something though). It was cool though. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaggis Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 (edited) Surrogates One of the worst films I've ever seen. Fucking abysmal. Though it had Bruce Willis in, I should have expected this. 1 Saw 2 Decided to attempt to watch it on my own last night considering it was on television. I must have been hidden behind my huge pillow for about half of the movie. Had it just been that group in the house, it would have been a lot better. Instead they chose to bore the audience with a crappy side-story about a bad father and whatnot. Ew Edited October 19, 2009 by Slaggis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
