A Haunted House 1/10 Awful, unfunny.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Jack Reacher - 7/10.

Enjoyable.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Finally got round to watching Argo, It was OK 6/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Trek into Darkness very good film with issues. Do not read spoiler if you have any interest

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Trek Into Darkness 9/10

Loved it.

Whole film felt the right length and a very good Trek movie. Loved the little nods to the original series. Nurse Chapel got a mention. Not gonna mention any spoilers though but I liked what they did with the character.

Klingons looked a little odd.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star trek into darkness 7/10. (IMAX/3d)
(the 1st one I'd give 8.5/10).

I found the story was just a-b with nothing inbetween. Another one I could sum up in a couple of seconds. I enjoyed it but it's quite a forgettable film at the same time. I came out feeling a little disappointed.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

EVIL DEAD - 8/10

As remakes of old horror films go this one was quite good.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes l watched the original which was brilliant in my humble opinion.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Iron Man 3 (Imax 3D) - Great film way better than IM2 8.5/10

Star Trek Into Darkness (Imax 3D) - Loved it! 9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes l am looking forward to seeing both these films in time as the clips l have seen so far of them look good.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

From the trailers shown there's loads of Sci-fi to come this year too :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Watched Star Trek ID yesterday too, thoroughly enjoyable. Will go see Iron Man 3 next week after I catchup with 2 on Netflix.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Just seen Fast & Furious 6 7/10

Really enjoyable and some great car chases and fight scenes although one or two were a bit too far fetched.

7 Should be very interesting as there was a small post credit scene featuring... (Spoilers added in case you haven't already seen it mentioned online)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I can't wait to see it, I love the whole F+F franchise, cheese and all, it tick's all the boxes for an entertaining watch putting the cheesy scenes aside of course.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Just seen Fast & Furious 6 as well. I too love the whole franchise and all. I get where its going, its been going but i don't get some of the stuff as Stephen related to, bit far fetched. on the whole though I dont care, i enjoyed it. I don't want to say much for those of you who want to see it obviously. My rating 9/10.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Hangover III - a laugh 8/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Sorry bud but its not my cup of tea.:td:

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fast and Furious 6 = 9/10

Cant wait for number 7. Bring it on

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Get rid of it as the series has gone on for far too long in my humble opinion.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

However unlike most long running movie series the F&F movies have gotten better. 5&6 are by far the best in the series.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Well each to our own tastes and opinions Stephen.:)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Trek : Into Darkness 3D Imax.

7/10 3D was a disappointment, probably because it wasn't filmed in 3D. Picture quality was not as good as I expected, thought it would be great HD, but was about the same as any other cinema screen quality. Story was mediocre. Sound was great.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Trek Into Darkness 3D - 9/10

The picture quality in 3D was good and the storyline was good. I thought that it was a good twist, in that things may be change, but have a similar ending ;)

Looper 9/10

I really liked this.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

A good day too die hard.

It's hard to believe that Bruce Willis is still making these types of films. He is s great actor with a barrel load of quality films under his belt (and a few stuff ones too) but John McClane should have hung up his tin star after the third outing.
lots of action, the car/truck chase at the beginning is about the best bit.
6/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

this film I think passes the torch to Varro lol

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Its not out yet but from the clips ive seen i can all ready rate it 9/10. The film i am on about is called 'Rush'. Looks epic and i cant wait to go watch it in September

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Oz the Great and Powerful.It was a decent film had to look up which witch was which in WoO but enjoyed it nice to see Oz's story

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes l am looking forward to seeing this film as the clips looked pretty good tiz.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Django Unchained - good film - very violent in parts tho - but was expecting that from a Tarantino film - worth a watch

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Bullet to the head

What can I say that this review don't


http://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/bu...-the-head-2013

It's corney, it's cheesy, it's mumbling, it's Stallone.

7/10
Worth watching if you got nowt better to do.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

zero dark thirty - good film - watched on google play 9 or ten out of ten

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Prometheus 8/10 - Pretty good

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

:D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Finally saw the Hobbit, on DVD. Loved it.

Some people have complained that Jackson has stuffed what is essentially a short-ish children's story with too much additional material, but I don't see any other way he could have done it. Tolkein may have fleshed out Middle Earth after writing the Hobbit, but Jackson made the Hobbit after creating an on-screen version of Middle Earth. We know too much about Bilbo, Gandalf and Middle Earth for a 90-minute treatment to have worked.

Gandalf may not have been concerned about Sauron at the time the Hobbit was written, but when you look back on Tolkein's completed works and their timeline, it is inconceivable that he would not have been concerned, and would not have taken the opportunity to discuss it with the likes of Lord Elrond and Lady Galadriel.

Tolkein's great achievement is the creation of a universe and people, all of which have an existence before and after the stories that are told about them. Jackson has successfully translated that to the screen. I was enjoying being back in Middle Earth as much as I was enjoying the story that happened to be taking place there at the time. I can't wait for The Desolation of Smaug, although I may have to wait for the DVD again.

If I have any complaint at all, it would be that the exposition in the first half hour went from being far too rushed, in Bilbo's retelling of the fall of Erebor, to far too slow, in establishing the Company of Thorin. But once they got out on the road things went quite nicely.

8/10.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

We had a lazy day on Saturday as the sun was hiding. We watched ARGO a historical drama thriller film directed by Ben Affleck. A CIA operative is charged with the rescue of six U.S diplomats from Tehran, Iran, during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis. It kept us hooked into the film 9/10

We then watched "The Life of Pi" A fantasy adventure film. Piscine Patel "Pi" survives 227 days on a life boat in the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger he named Richard Parker. Well acted and a lovely story 10/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Bullet to the Head 8/10

Enjoyed it a lot and Stallone was great.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Nice review Chris.... saw this again recently and still loved it. :)

Probably agree re the exposition,could've been the other way around almost. Anyway,bring on the Desolation of Smaug. :D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Les Miserables. 7/10

A bit too much singing.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Well it is a musical :rolleyes:

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel - 9/10

Stunning!! I loved everything about it. How a Superman movie should be done.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

l prefer the old musicals personally.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel

Very entertaining, brilliant effects. But too many stupid moments let it down. I thought it was better than star trek anyway.

I would give the film 9 but have to mark it down -1 for the stupid bits and -1 for Louis Lane. so a 7. If you can get past the bits I didn't like and if you like super hero films you won't be disappointed.

And for once the trailers didn't spoil it unlike star trek.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel

5/5, loved it... And that's coming from someone who's never really liked Superman and has always preferred Batman.

As much as I enjoyed Iron Man 3 and Star Trek Into Darkness, I enjoyed this more.


My only real issue:

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel - 6/10

Visually the movie looked brilliant, however I had some issues with the content

Now you see me = 10/10 IMO. Brilliant film

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

So you went to the Cineworld secret screening ;)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Ya i now i know why they called it secret screening. Fits well into the films theme. I really enjoed the film and the shock at the end was great too

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel 9/10

Really enjoyable a great addition to the current crop of comic book hero movies :)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Trek Into Darkness

7/10 good film not quite "Star Trek" though

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Just watched Das Boot again on Blu Ray. Brilliant...

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Joss Whedon's Much Ado About Nothing

After finishing work on The Avengers, Joss Whedon (Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Dollhouse) spent 12 days on a secret shoot at his own house: A black & white modern-dress adaptation of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing.

The cast? A whole load of his favourite actors from his TV series, such as Alexis Denisof and Amy Acker.

The result? Wonderful :)

9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Panic Room(2002) - Jodie Foster 8/10
Claustrophobic thriller, believable characters, could watch again.

---------- Post added at 07:33 ---------- Previous post was at 07:31 ----------

The Perfect Storm (2000) 8/10 George Clooney

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel - 6.5/10

Aside from some moments of genuine tension, there wasn't much else that really grabbed me. An 'Ok' movie, but I wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Man of Steel 7/10. My butt cheeks kept asking "When will it end?" but the film was just able to hold me in my seat.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Last Stand.

7/10. Ridiculous story-line, but the last half hour was entertaining.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Welcome to the punch.
Well over-hyped, 2/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I didn't notice any hype about it, but then it doesn't change the fact that it's still crap.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

World War Z. 10/10

Great change for a zombie movie. Watched it in 3d which I wouldn't recommend.
Hope it turns into a trilogy. Not your average unread romero flick.

Man of steel IMAX 7/10 visually stunning and lightyears better than previous films. Suit looked better and the character was just better all round compared to the typical guy in underpants and a cape.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Trance really liked this guys watch with your legs crossed 8/10

Redemption aka Humming bird Jason Statham another good film he actually acts in this one 8/10

Olympus has fallen. Although we have already seen this its a good enough brain in neutral action flick 7/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Thank you for your words of wisdom but I actually knew it was a musical. I've seen many musicals that don't have so much singing and are more enjoyable.
:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I actually quite enjoyed that. Very 24-ish in some ways, plus it's a far better "Die Hard type film" that the last actual Die Hard...


I thought that it was well known that it was a full-on "sung through" musical.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Cloud Atlas - 9/10

I really enjoyed this. I wasn't too sure about this movie from reading the reviews and descriptions of it when it was out in the cinema, but it surprised me when I watched it. Spot how many characters Hugh Grant plays... ;)

Thelma & Louise 10/10 - Awesome movie with awesome photography.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

^

made for a real change, never seen it before.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Now You See Me - 8/10 for the film but 3/10 for the final 5 minutes.

Excellent film, very Ocean's Eleven but the ending was awful. Very effective twist but the way it all came together almost ruined the rest of it for me.

GI Joe: Retaliation - 3/10. Not even The Rock could save this one for me which is a shame because I liked the first one and this should have been better,

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

This is the end : 8/10

Very funny, very crude and very strange.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

You should watch it as its a great film.

I have to agree to all points. I didn't see the twist coming thou I admit that

I want to see that

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Olympus Has Fallen 7/10 A good OTT action movie, really enjoyed it.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

World War Z 7/10

I know its part of a trilogy, some spectacular scenes but was missing something

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

blood and guts??

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Now you see me - 5/10 - hated the ending, last 20 minutes ruined quite an enjoyable film in my opinion.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

World War Z - 6/10

I'm old school when it comes to zombie movies. I like real bleak end of the world stuff with plenty of gore and slow meandering zombies. I just didn't like the globe trotting grandeur of World War Z and never really accepted Pitt in his role.

If you liked 28 Days Later you'll really enjoy this. If you a more a fan of the Romero genre this might not tick all of your boxes.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pacific Rim

Giant mecha versus alien sea monsters... but directed by Guillermo del Toro (Blade 2, Hellboy 1 & 2, Pan's Labyrinth, and almost The Hobbit).

Cheesy and predictable, but... awesome! Visually spectacular, great action, and lots of fun.

8/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Final Destination (first)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

II will probably enjoy this then ;)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

watched a few films last night,

Shaft (2002) 10/10

Premium Rush 8/10

The Saint (1997) 9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I watched that not long ago. Can't remember where I read it (so can't provide a link), but I read the only reason that it didn't get a sequel is that Sam Jackson didn't want to make one and he'd played the part so well that the studio only wanted him to play the part.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

i'm leaning towards both of those judgements being the right calls. i thought it was Quentin Tarantinos film, i would have said the set up was there for a sequel but its not.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pacific Rim

Next-Gen Blockbuster with a story that entertains and FX that left me speechless. :)

Go see it,and in 3D,that's all I can say at this point. ;)

8.5/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pacific Rim

Absolutely loved it saw it at the Imax in 3D incredible effects

9/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I need to get out so tomorrow it might be a toss up between Pacific Rim or The World End. Though I'm a sucker for big bold special effects.

From the reviews here I can safely ignore the review from the guardian which gave Rim only 2 out of 5.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

A Perfect Ending 10/10:romance:

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

It's quite cheesy and cliched, with certain plot points easily predicted, but I still loved it. Fun, great action, spectacular visuals.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Listen to Damien and go see it,the FX are jaw-dropping and it has to be seen at the cinema for full effect!

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I'm not Damien! ;)

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Matt Damon?

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Superman Man of Steel - 4/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Worlds End 8/10

Great cast and a fitting end to the Cornetto trilogy.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Worlds End - 7/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Cable Guy, but i enjoyed top gun more

Cable guy 6/10

Top gun 10/10:D

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Worlds End 7/10

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pacific Rim 8/10

Amazing effects and showing how giant robots fighting should be done!

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Heat 7/10

Comedy starring Sandra Bullock as an uptight FBI Special Agent paired with a foul-mouthed Boston cop to take down a ruthless drug lord. I know it sounds terrible however it turned out to have some real funny moments. I found it funny, my wife found it funny and others in the cinema laughed loud throughout.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pacific Rim 8/10.

This was actually better than I expected, it even had a half decent story, as well as fantastic effects.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The World's End 7/10.

Not as good as the previous two but still enjoyable.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Purge 6.5/10 stupid premise but an ok movie

Oblivion good until the end

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

pacific rim 7/10

i am a sci-fi fan and was looking forward to this. it was ok but no quite as god as i hoped.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The world's end. 8/10

Dispicable me 2 7/10

Now you see me 9/10

Pacific Rim 7/10 8 for Imax

Hangover 3 4/10 pretty much buried it.

I really need to stop throwing money at odeon

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Wolverine 8/10

The friends I was with thought it was just OK, I really enjoyed it, went into more behind the man who is Wolverine

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Went to see The Wolverine on Tuesday. 6/10 wasn't bad but was hardly brilliant.

Re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Killing Season - I enjoyed this one 7/10
