Konfucius Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Reign of Fire I wasn't something special but a nice pop-corn movie and I'm glad it was more Christian Bale and less Matthew McConaughey (who looked quite cool actually). The story felt a bit like out of a comic book but it was still enjoyable and the effects were also better than expected. 7/10 Predator 2 It's not as good as the first one but it has more Predators and more dead bodies which is good for this kind of film. What really annoyed me though was, that Danny Glover was fighting the Predator - it just doesn't seem right, especially because Glover seemed rather fat than trained. Hunting in a city was a very nice idea though but it doesn't really manage to keep the tension and comic relief (due to Schwarzenegger's exceptional Engrisch) of the original. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayseven Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 A Scanner Darkly I <3 rotoscoping. 8/10. Funny how Keanu is surprisingly bad at acting as a retard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monopolyman Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Seen a few recently, but... L.A. Confidential One of the best films of the 90's. The complex and ever evolving plot draws you in so, with the help of the three main characters (Russell Crowe, Kevin Spacey, Guy Pierce); all cops with a unique way of solving the several crimes presented in the film (mainly the Night Owl Massacre), who are some of the most complex and intriging characters in a film, probably ever. One of the best films of the 90's 10/10 Bubble Boy Little known comedy, and I can see why. A few funny moments, but ultimately, meh! 5/10 Forrest Gump I don't know why it took me so long to finally see this. I know I had plenty of chances. Probably the best performance Tom Hanks has ever produced, and it was cool seeing all the pop culture references in the 60's and 70's, and Forrest being too stupid to understand them. I'd like to know how they filmed those scenes with Forrest Gump with JFK, Nixon etc. 8.5/10 Spiderman 3 It was alright. Not fantastic, though. I think I left my thoughts about it in the official thread. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 28 Weeks Later Awesome!! If 28 Days Later is like Alien, 28 Weeks Later is like Aliens! Not a scary but way more action!! I could have sat through another hour of that...unlike that dog turd of a film Spiderman 3 which was about a sequal too long! The only downside was that the children were a bit annoying. 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the beginning of this film with Don leaving his wife and running away from all those infected is one of the greatest parts of a film I've ever seen.

Noodleman Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 seen a few recently: A Scanner Darkly: I dont like Rotoscoping, the film was alright. Keanu awful as ever. 5/10 The Prestige: Loved it at the cinema, still loved it on DVD. Christian Bale continues to cement a place in my favourite actors list. David Bowies role awesome as well. 7.5/10 Thank You For Smoking: I enjoyed it Aaron Eckhart puts in a great performance. Well worth a watch. 7/10 Wonderland: Still love this film, must have seen it about 10 times now. Val Kilmer is fantastic as John Holmes (yes that John Holmes) in the story about a violent murder that took place in LA in the 80s. 8/10 Nacho Libre: Was alright, not as good on a 2nd watch. Jack Black still awesome though. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Space Jam Crazy to think its been 11 years since I last watched it. A fun film, and now I understand the innuendos, such as Bugs going, literally, stiff as a board when Lola was being 'sexy'. 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcj metroid Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 National Treasure Mr Cage's last decent film imo. A lot of good talent involved in this film, and it wasn't that bad. It's like a DaVinci Code for kids. Sequel in the pipeline too, woo! 7/10 for kids? it's better than the film da vinci code in every possible way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfire Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 V for Vendetta No matter how many times I see it always love it. One of my favourite movies, simply awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan_Dare Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 V for VendettaNo matter how many times I see it always love it. One of my favourite movies, simply awesome. You should read the graphic novel. It's somewhere in the region of ten billion times better. not a bad film effort, for the most part, but the pen is mightier than the camera...

Konfucius Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Frequency Cool idea and very well executed. It's nice to see how they change the past and how little things then have a very different outcome. I didn't like how the changes were handled though, especially towards the end but some parts were really brilliant and it was overall very exciting. I especially liked the performance of Dennis Quaid although I didn't really like his films so far. 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh_gamer Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Watched 2 films this afternoon : Ferris Bueller's Day Off Nothing special. Got very bored of it towards the end. Don't understand why this has such a big fanbase. The day off itself, was nothing worth writing home about! 5/10 Ghostbusters Very enjoyable movie, but I think I would have enjoyed it even more if I had watched it at night. Plenty of laughs and action along the way and some great lines. Bill Murray is great and Sigourney Weaver is sex on legs in it! 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read it already, don't know which one I prefer, but a lot of people always prefer the comics, even if deep down, they really don't. It's the smooth way to go. Not saying you're like this Dan. But I don't have to choose, I love both the comic and the movie. Terminal Haven't watched it in a long time, really entertaining, very nice movie. The league of extraordinary gentlemen Meh, it's watchable, I actually enjoyed it more the first time I saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmac Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Kingdom of Heaven - 7/10 was better than I expected after the write-ups it got from critics Pirates of the Carribean: DMC - 6/10 nice set pieces but in all honesty what was the point in this movie apart from to set up the third?

gaggle64 Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Reservoir Dogs The job is notable by it's absence, thus grounding the whole chain of events in the mind of the audience and allowing the narrative to flow free form around it.
