Watched 'A Field in England' last night on Film4. What a pile of shit.

Id been looking forward to that for a while. Agree with you though. Was terrible.

Just watched Apocalypto. Why oh why have I never watched this before. Fucking brilliant!!!

Amazing isn't it mate?

 

Me and our peg started watching it while getting ready to go out in Mexico and ended up stopping in!

 

Mel gibsons finest work..

Vaughn and Wilson back to being funny then Homo?? I had mixed feelings about this one....

 

Wilson has always been funny for me whatever he is in

 

Vaughn has done nowt since swingers expect put on weight

 

watched Gangster Squad t'other night - just an action flick as opposed to owt gritty like the untouchables, but worth a watch all the same

i recall I was pleasently surprised, was expecting some dances with wolves epic but was a decent action movie as it turns out

Me too.  Actually had it on DVD for a couple of years but never really fancied it.  It was on recently though so I taped it ... and as there was fuck all on last night thought I'd give it a go.

 

What really struck me was the brutality of all the shit that went on at their pyramids.  You see them now and they look beautiful and serene ... but back in the day, as the film shows, there was a lot of fucked up shit going on in, on and around them.

 

Gonna watch it again very soon. 

 

The scene with the jaguar on that blokes face was ace.  Rewound and watched it a couple of times.

Watched a couple of new ones yesterday, 321 Frankie go boom, Comedy with Charlie Hunnam and Ron Perlman from SoA, Chris O Dowd and that bird. Quite funny.

 

Wrong, about a bloke who has lost his dog. Wierdest film ive seen in a while, but both worth a watch if youve nowt better to do

Watched 'Olympus Has Fallen' about an attack on the White House - was rubbish.

 

Also watched 'Kill List' about a hitman which was OK until the ending went all strange and witchy.

I've only just realised that that Ron fella in SoA isn't Tom Waits

Watched Kill List last night.

 

Plenty of ultra violence and was good, if a bit 'arty', up until the ending which made no sense whatsoever, I mean literally no sense at all.  Spoiled it for me really.  I don't want to sit there rubbing my chin musing what I think the ending meant ... because the director chose to leave it open to my own interpretation. 

 

I want him to fucking tell me what the ending was supposed to mean.

I still don't know if Kill List is shit or good. The ending is definitely questionable. It also contains the only bit of cinema violence I've had to turn away from and I'm well hard, me. some of the scenes are too long, like when they all sit down and have their tea.

 

Naked is a fucked up British film about northerners in London from about 1993 starring David Thewlis as a complete fucking hatstand.
