Moderators Zico Posted August 19, 2010 Moderators Share Posted August 19, 2010 You did well and truly miss the point of that film then, didn't you. As for the others, I refuse to comment. Except The Karate Kid, which was about an hour longer than it should have been and was about a kid practising KUNG FU FFS! At least 10 minutes of the film are of Jackie Chan saying take it off, put it on again. Very, very, VERY, shit. I'd be curious to your take on Inception or what the point was what with the subject being dreams, so already you've licence to do whatever you want, and the film seemingly making itself up as it went along (because it can), it was all too predictable come the end to suggest it was all in fact, just a dream well, that was my take on it anyway, and once you take on that thought, it can then be anyone's fucking dream, it could've been hers for all we know as for the karate kid, same gripe here, but apparently kung fu panda have got the rights to anything kung fu related or something but i did find it enjoyable enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Zico Posted August 19, 2010 Moderators Share Posted August 19, 2010 She's a funny one, can't make my mind up about her aye, she looks fit in donnie darko watch the secretary if you still have doubts not because it will help you decide, but because her role will either do it for you, or it won't http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzPFMfPPzs0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzo gambaro Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Not quite as good as Momento but better than Inception. Is that the Italian remake of Split Second? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Latham8WFC Posted August 19, 2010 Site Supporter Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) Is that the Italian remake of Split Second? I'm not sure, all I know it that it starts at the end and goes backwards to the start. Guy Pearce's character cannot create short-term memories so he has lost of tattoo's on his body in order to help him remember. Its a murder mystery except you never really know whats happening as its shot in short parts the wrong way round. As with Inception people can interpret the ending in many different ways depending on how you see the film, also its got Carrie Anne Moss in which always adds to a film. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0209144/ Edited August 19, 2010 by Latham8WFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Latham8WFC Posted August 19, 2010 Site Supporter Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) Is that the Italian remake of Split Second? I think its Portuguese Momento - Noun momento m. 1. moment (very brief period of time) So yes a split second... Thanks Frank I kind of missed that one.....

Totty Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Watched Crazy Heart other night - its really not that good and way too short. I know he got an Oscar, but Jeff Bridges just plays a more serious 'The Dude'. That Maggie Gyellnehall (or however you spell it) is a cracker though. i saw that at the pictures and enjoyed it, then in the car on the way home it dawned on me that its exactly the same story as The Wrestler! ageing former superstar is downtrodden and broke, no friends or family, long lost offspring somewhere, doing 2bob shows in shit little towns to earn a buck, meets much younger attractive bird, gets off with em, she makes him realise the error of his ways. done. Jeff Bridges will always be a legend though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted August 23, 2010 Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2010 over the weekend: Let The Right One In: like it, slow and dark and subtitled - even though I've not and never will see Twilight, if you watch 1 film about vampires having relationships with real people, this one pisses over that Sherlock Holmes - perfect for a sunday afternoon with a hangover type film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
