"Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford"
Thought this was going to be a long boring film difficult to sit through far from it, some scenes were so tense I dared not blink. Don't go into it thinking it will be a classicly styled western with lots of shooting and galloping about.

1.- Children of Men -> this is a great movie, with a very apocalyptic environment. Great actor also (Clive Owen). About him, "Shoot 'em all", even being humor, it's pretty good.
2.- Unleashed -> Mix of martial arts and drama. Here you can check that Jet Lee can actually act, lol.
3.- 28 days/weeks later -> excellent zombie movies. Dawn of the Dead is good also (remake).
4.- 13 game sayawng -> weird Thai movie about a very strange 13-stages game. "The sign" could be here too.
5.- Bourne's Trilogy and "Casino Royale" -> accion.
Argh, I could spend the day recommending movies, LOL. One more? "The 13th warrior" with Antonio Banderas.

Tried to watch 'Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind', after a couple of mates recommended it. Managed 45mins before turning off. Film seamed a total mess with no direction or plot, guess I was missing something.

Don't go into it thinking it will be a classicly styled western with lots of shooting and galloping about.  Absolutely bored the socks off me!  I did enjoy Cloverfield tho. Went out to the cinema last night hoping to watch Slumdog Millionaire. Due to timing ended up seeing Defiance instead. T'was alright. Tipical War drama long film length, about 2 and a half hours. Did feel like they could of cut it down a tad but the film was alright. I have actually already watched about the first 30 mins of Slumdog via a download. Disappointingly the file crashed on me when i was just getting into it. From what i have seen already i would highly recommend the film. Go and see it! Next week i am looking forward to seeing that new 3D movie, My Bloody Valentine and Mickey Rourke in the highly praised The Wrestler. Don't imagine MBV to be much good but it's been a very long time since i saw a 3D movie so that should be a good craic anyway. The Wrestler on the other hand is sounding like it is very good. ;D |

Anyone seen Slumdog yet then? Saw this on Friday, really good, tough in places. Also saw Role Models, very funny (in a Superbad way). looking forward to seeing Frost/Nixon, The Wrestler and Gran Torino. |

Watch Oldboy (korean film-good twist), Schhool Of Rock (although I'm sure you have), Pulp Fiction (or any Tarantino).
Or just do the right thing and Watch Jack Bauer all day long!

Watch Oldboy (korean film-good twist)quote] Oldboy, wow how amazing. Really well made movie, nothing quite like it. If you are in to film then it's a must see! So then... Think i got my fill from the Cinema in Jan. Went to see Valkyrie last week. I enjoyed it a lot. Really well made, with lots of good acting, plot and Tom Cruise throw in for good measure!  Must admit i am a WW2 film fan boy but this is a good watch. Obviously we all know Operation Valkyrie wasn't successful(The film is meant to be based on the true story/facts) but there was a moment in the plot where i really wasn't sure if the film was going to take a alternative time line. Very gripping indeed. My Bloody Valentine 3D. Haha, cracking fun. Stupid slasher movie that made my laugh out loud when there wasn't even any comedy! 3D works great and made the movie, duff said. The Wrestler, Very interesting cinema. Don't know if it's a film i could recommend as a must see but i liked it for what it was. I would say it's a bit like a doc, drama. Very gritty and tragic. Mickey Rourke love or hate fits his role perfectly. I say kudos to him! A few of my friends have seen it and hated it, I enjoyed it, It's one of those really. It's a insight into someones world/life, don't expect a movie plot line start, middle and end. Out of all the high level movies this year i would still have to say Slumdog is my top recommendation. Honestly guys/gals, even if you don't fancy it it's really one of those films that surprises and makes the difference. ;D |

Watched Fast Times at Ridgemont High the other day. If you like your American Teen movies, I would recommend this.
