Book of Eli - Denzel Washington - took two attempts to watch it all the way through - a bit of a duff Mad Max type film. Watchable. 4/10

 

Green Zone - Matt Damon - enjoyed it, always like films based out in Middle East, etc. 7/10

 

Planet 51 - was enjoying it til I nodded off, kids liked it - must be good. 6/10

 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - see above - 6/10

 

Good Will Hunting - Matt Damon/Robin Williams - look, there was fook all else on this Saturday just gone, never seen it before - quite enjoyed - the scene were Robin Williams was going on about his late wife farting in bed had me in tears - half decent. Oh, and Minnie Driver looked far better than I can ever remember. 7/10

 

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - its Swedish so no famous actors/actresses - great thriller - didn't bother me that it was in subtitles great revenge scene on the pervy Probation Officer- looking forward to the 2nd in the trilogy in the next week or so - well worth the watch and highly recommended. 9/10

 

That's me, Jonathan Woss, over and out.

right ive been lookin for a new aciton trilogy to watch which i had never seen, and after some pub discussion it was agreed i should watch the bourne trilogy.

so this week i shall mostly be watching bourne.

 

they're all good though the shaky cam is worst than cloverfield in the last one

 

and for some reason joan allen does it for me in the 2nd two

On my recent ventures on planes I have watched

 

Oceans - A documentary type with voice over from Pierce Brosnan about the Ocean funnily enough, 7/10

 

Shrek 4 - Was easy watching 5/10

 

The Green Zone - Thouroughly enjoyed it 8/10

 

Just Wright - Wasnt by choice it were the only film on, my god awful 0/10

 

Dodgeball - Had this as a choice and though it was very good 7/10

 

Made of Honour - Again no choice it was on whilst we had to refuel 4/10

 

 

There were a couple of others but they were so wank Im not including them, on another note saw that penis, Russel Brand filming in New York and the film he was shooting is the remake of Arthur with him as Arthur alongside Helen Mirren.

 

At Universal Studios they confirmed there doing Jurassic Park 4, there is a film called Devil which looks ok, screenplay done by the Shalayman guy of Sixth Sernse fame, also if your in to plays they are making a film version of the musical Wicked. The Expendables got panned over there.

Just watched Harry Brown absolutely blinding film. 8/10. Michael Caine is fantastic and Plan B

plays a horrible little cnut, abit like Gran Torino if anyone has seen that just British rather than American.

Thats how someone described it to me, but I was let down, not a patch on Gran Torino.

 

Michael Caine is quite good in it though.

didn't think harry brown was a patch on gran torino

 

 

anyway, ive just finished reading the girl wit dragon tattoo so im watching that

didn't think harry brown was a patch on gran torino

 

for all it's plaudits I was dissapointed with gran torino, moves along nicely but a proper "cheesy" ending

I thought Harry Brown was utter bollocks, How is Caine any good in it, hes the same bloke hes played in 100 other movies, just this time he's a mega hard vigilante fighting for good against evil (the Hoodies! Woooaaahhh!!!). hes not bad, but certainly nothing special. the film itself tho is just shallow, contrived, predictable, & boring. Its also completely unrealistic. The dark damp flats trying to add the bleakness, an old geezer pulling a bayonet on a bunch of yobbos, the two smacked up dealers who live in a shed full of cash, guns & drugs without being turned over every five minutes, why would these two lads with so much cash live in such squalor? They wouldn?t, smack heads or not, just another lazy clich?.

 

Gran Torino is on another planet from that shite.

I didn't realise it was a documentary?

Haha, yeah I know what you mean. People just have different opinions that make them react to a film. I didn't have high expectations of Harry Brown and in retrospect, the story does seem a little straightforward but I didn't think it was that bad. I had huge expectations for Shutter Island and felt the film was a bit of a let down but I guess most people really rate it.

Just watched gran Torino.

 

Cracking

 

8/10 from me.

Marmaduke =

 

just watched Shutter Island, very good.

 

(seem to remember some bad comments about it, on another thread)

Guys if you have the chance go and watch or try and get a copy of Grown ups, t'is hilarious.

are u serious?

I have just downloaded Four Lions, will be watching tonight after X Factor!!

 

 

 

are u serious?

 

Yes, why wouldn't I be. Owen Wilson is a great actor, even though he's a dog in this one, like role reversal from Marley and Me.

Am I sad for wanting to watch Marmaduke?

 

Probably not at the cinema unless the missus wants to go and we've got free tickets, but it may be a watch on DVD.

Disturbia is a good one that I watched recently
