Let's have a films thread.

[Phube]

Watched Get Rich or Die Tryin last night.

Wasn't too bad

[Daggers]

In Bruges - Excellent Film, not sure how...

Because it blends a well written story with good acting and a heavy dose of magnificent humour, like Gran Torino currently does?

In Bruges - Excellent Film, not sure how... just really, really good. Watch it!!

Watchmen - A really good adaptation of the comic errr... graphic novel! But I'm not sure what it would be like if you haven't read it?

I never read the book and enjoyed it alot and it's not usually the sort of film i like.

I agree with the nonesense bit.

Watched it on the plane over here, I fell asleep and I wasnt even tired....Maybe it got better?

[fox123]

I have Saw 5 and The Wrestler to watch tonight...looking forward mostly to the latter.

[Samilktray]

Watched Ali on channel 4 last night.

What a film.

[Mickey O'Neil]

I watched Pineapple Express last night.

I must be getting old. Not really funny (apart from the bit where he tries to kick out the windscreen ).

I think I've got a low threshold for druggie movies

[The People's Hero]

I watched the Manchurian Candidate yesterday morning and Sliding Doors last night.

To be fair, I liked both.

[purpleronnie]

Watched Changeling last night, very good.

[Legend_in_blue]

Well I watched that 'Wanted' film, Jolie playing it cool on the eye...

Good action film with some decent special effects. I liked how the chap ended up in the Dodge Viper after what seemed like one or two 360 handbrake turns.

Also, is it possible to curve bullets from a gun like that?

Morgan Freeman =

I also watched this on Friday night - quite enjoyed it, even if it is a little far-fetched.

Morgan Freeman is quite simply a hero - the bit at the end...... 'Oh fuck'. Awesome.

And no i dont think it is possible to curve bullets - i can remember there being a big thing about it at the time of release, and i think they concluded that its not possible.

Jolie aswel, my goodness. Even though shes a bit skinny, she is top.

Just caught a glance of In Bruges on this page and noticed it was the big bender! Phube's reconsiled himself!

That's an utterly magnificent film. Lots of swearing and midgets, brilliant.

[lildave3]

Watched Ali on channel 4 last night.

What a film.

No! Missed it.

Seen it two or three times but I love it, brilliant film.

[Number 6]

Watched 'Spirit of The Beehive' last night, great little film.

Hoping to find time to watch Godfather 2 at some point this week.

Why thank you... I think!!

BTW I have recently seen:

There will be Blood : Good, but not great. DDL was awesome as ever, but the story, esp. the end, were a bit of a let down to me!

X-Files: I want to believe: Okay, but not the X-Files I remember from my youth (Pre season 5). And no Aliens... what's up with that!?

Pride and Glory

A family of police officers - patriarch, two sons, and a son-in-law - deals with corruption in a precinct in Washington Heights. Four officers die in an ambush at a drug dealer's apartment. It's brother Francis's precinct, so when the investigation led by brother Ray finds hints of police corruption, there's pressure to close ranks and save Frankie's career. Dad, a police brass, promises Ray that he and Frankie can clean things up, and Ray should focus on catching the drug dealer who killed the cops. Meanwhile, brother-in-law Jimmy, a hothead and an enforcer, is visited at home by a lowlife. Is Jimmy involved in the corruption? Where can this take the family?

I thought this was a great gritty cop film, with great performances all round. 8/10
