Let's have a films thread.

Olympus has fallen is a great film. A bit like 24.

[21st Century Fox]

Anyone seen The Last Stand? thoughts?

It's worth watching, I quite enjoyed it. It's one of those films that if you watch it with the expectation that it won't be very good, you'll probably end up enjoying it. If you can't be bothered to think for an hour and forty minutes, don't mind bad acting and no character development whatsoever, then watch it.

[z-layrex]

Evil Dead anyone? Decent?

Well it's shit, but I was glad I saw it because the gore was quite well done.

Is it based on the Stephen King book.

I read that about 35 years ago - classic of the time.

Cheers, sounds like my kinda film will stick it on tonight and report back.

It was a made for tv movie split over about 4 episodes. It's utter shite, but as 2CF says, if you don't mind bad acting, and I'll add, terrible script, it'll alright.

[Trav Le Bleu]

Seen Iron Man 3 this afternoon. Better than 2 but not 1, but then, not much is. On a par with the Avengers. The kid steals the show. As always, an extra bit at the end of the spoilers, but it doesn't hint at much.

[21st Century Fox]

Bat shit crazy arthouse film. Some nice Kubrickesque touches, certainly interesting and visually stunning.

[rico]

Saw Iron Man 3 today,thought it was as good as 1

[MooseBreath]

Just started watching cloud atlas. Gave up after about five minutes.

Too intelectual.

[MooseBreath]

Too intellectual.

Maybe. I can't usually be bothered with anything too stenuous on a Sunday night. It just looked boring to be honest. Looked a lot like The Fountain which was also boring. If it was an hour and a half long I would have carried on, but nearly three hours? No thanks Jeff.

[VLC86]

Well it's shit, but I was glad I saw it because the gore was quite well done.

I enjoyed it, yes it's a bit generic and the first half an hour I thought I was watching Cabin in the Woods but still decent if you like horrors

[FoxesAreBlue]

Hot Fuzz on ITV2 - Top film

Awful film

[One Arm Babba]

I watched 2 belters yesterday.

Cell 211 - a Spanish film about a new prison guard who is stuck inside when the prisoners take over the cell block. Fantastic acting an a very good believable story 9/10

The Intouchables - a French film about a tetraplegic rich bloke who hires a Senegalese immigrant from the Parisian projects as his career. At times it's very moving but most of the times it's very funny.

I'd recommend these to anyone that has watched and enjoyed the likes of La Haine, The Luves of Others, City of god (ie you like good films and don't whine about subs)

GO WATCH THEM NOW!

[21st Century Fox]

They're both great. I really enjoyed Cell 211, Luis Tosar ( ) is a beast of an actor.

[sphericalfox]

Watched 'Movie 43' yesterday. It has about two moments of chuckle, the rest is drawn out and piss poor unfunny rubbish sketches, pulled altogether by an even more irritating and unfunny premise. I know it's supposed to be very low brow, but even low brow can be funny and entertaining. This is not. Don't waste money on it.

[rico]

Mama - was a decent film until you actually got to see her then it was pants !

[BoneDog]

My Mrs watched Looper last night. I looked up at one point and there was a kid on some stairs. The face on him when he got to the bottom of the stairs! Looked more evil than owd Omen Damien, and he was a right evil shit. That bit looked pretty decent when the kid shit the man up and taught him a lesson, but my Mrs said it was a rubbish film overall. 4/10

[rico]

Dark Skies,quite good film about alien abduction

[MC Prussian]

Can't really go back to "The Untouchables" now that I've watched it with headphones on.

I don't think the film has aged overly well.

Sure, there's some witty dialogue in parts and a couple of memorable scenes (the diner speech, the baby wagon drama towards the end), but as a whole, it doesn't work for me no more.

When you listen to it closely, you can detect the magic of ADR (automated dialogue recording) and how often they used foley (artificially created sound effects) in post-production.

That makes it appear like a patchwork of a movie.

[Leicfox]

A look at the trials and tribulations of a newlywed couple during their first year of marriage.

Nothing new or original however it does make you laugh on occasions. 5/10

This is possibly the worst film ever made.
