Watched The Negotiator last night. Brilliant - 7/10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Severance - 6/10. Enjoyable, but not as clever as it thinks.

The Break Up - 5/10. Okay, but it's one of those films which you'll forget within 24hrs.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Pursuit of Happyness 9/10

One of the best films i have seen in a long time, Will Smith was excellent. :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Watched Old Boy again with some friends yesterday, Still A very good film,9 outta 10.

Transporter 2 - Id say 7/10 for no brainer action film. There are 2 bits in it tho where I think the director/producer/stunt team were on drugs. The first is where Statham drives his car from the top of one carpark to another one (separate buildings) and then theres a bit where you see him driving across the top of buildings that are separated by a narrow street. Couldnt stop laughing but the action and driving sequences apart from those 2 were great.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

We went to see Happy Feet just before Christmas and thought it was great. The animation is absolutely stunning - by far the best I have ever seen. However, the plot is a little thin and it would be quite a long / slow film for small kids.

For Christmas, Mrs A bought me the DVD of March of the Penguins, which is a documentary about the real thing. I wish I'd seen them the other way round 'cos it would have made HF even more realistic for me. Many of the scenes in HF are obviously based on those in MotP. The DVD-extra about shooting MotP is also interesting.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Beerfest - 10/10
Absolutely hilarious.
If you liked SuperTroopers (and lets face it, how could you not?) you'll love this.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

A Scanner Darkly - Really enjoyed it 9/10. Keanu Reeves is just a natural as a stoner and Robert Downey Jr is...really good in it... ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Watched "The Rainmaker" again the other night. Good story, good acting all around, excellent direction (FF Coppola). 7/10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Star Trek:First Contact last night on C4 - 7/10; nice in-jokes, and quite a bit of action.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Employee of the Month 4/10, pretty poor really :(

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

That's dissapointing - I was going to watch that tonight :(

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I liked it dilli, appeals on my level :S

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest - Enjoyed it 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Prestige - 9/10

Different. Slightly dark. Enjoyable.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Same here ! Although, I'll give it a slightly higher 9/10. :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fair enough, I'll up it to 8.5 ;) The ending did make me want to watch the 3rd one straight away though grrr lol

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Saw The Andromeda Strain again last night. For a 35 year old science fiction film, it has stood the test of time well. Some of the science is a bit fanciful, but the author (M Crichton) wrote the book when in medical school. 9/10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I thought that was the A strain, caught a few minutes of it before bed. Read the book as well which is as good as the film.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes - one of the few times that the film holds "true" to the book. Except that one of the scientists changes sex...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

What? On screen?

Sure it wasn't "Tootsie" you were watching. ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Just watched Blood Diamond, fantastic film 10/10 IMHO :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

neighbour lent us the transporter 2 last night, and I was quite surprised to find that I quite enjoyed it - not usually my cup of tea, but the action was quite stunning, and there is an underlying 'americans (and anyone other than the english hero) are stupid' tone to the whole thing which amused me! matthew modine is annoying as ever though. 9/10

---------- Post added at 10:37 ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 ----------

got Clerks2 today, yaaaaaaaaaaay ebay! :D 10/10 fw's to gooooooooooooodbye horses....

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Prestige - I quite enjoyed it although it's a bit long at 2 hours 10 mins 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Got Hoodwinked on DVD the other week and watched it last Saturday - it was really funny in places - very enjoyable (7/10).

Watched Mr & Mrs Smith last night - it was okay once it got going, but it was very slow starting, we almost gave up on it (5/10).

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I watched Terminator 2 this morning.


Ages since I last watched it.


And it's still awesome :D


10/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Blood & Chocolate - what a waste of time 3/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Secret. 9/10 drags on a bit but it is very well put together and I think I understand more now.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

M:i:III (HD-DVD)


Good fun. Guns, gadgets, & explosions.


Much better than the first 2.


8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Batman Begins (HD-DVD)


Awesome. 10/10.


Still the best comic-book movie adaptation, of the best comic-book character.

----------------------------


Miami Vice (HD-DVD)


Hmm.


Very good in parts, very dull & slow in others.


Not Michael Mann's best.


6/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Totally agree about Miami Vice.

I watched it last night, for me, Colin Farrell doesn't quite pull it off. Jamie Foxx is good, but there are too many weak performances in this. Again 6/10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Prey, what can I say, possibly 1 of the worst 10 movies I've seen in a decade :(


1/10 and the 1 point is only for the lions :dozey:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Hot Fuzz - fuzztastic 8/10 (would have been 9/10, but took my 15 year old lad, who didn't get half the references, so had to (quietly) explain some of them to him, so missed a few bits).

I have given him series 1 and 2 of Spaced, and sent him off to his games/music room to watch them.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Hot Fuzz - 10/10 from me. Dare I say it even better than Shaun of the Dead.

'By the Power of Greyskull!' :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Definitely 10/10 for Hot Fuzz!

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I've never seen Spaced either.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Watching it now, Mmmmmm, hope it gets better :confused:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

You're using your laptop in the cinema?

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Click on DVD - mostly boring.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes, it is a little slow to start, but boy does it get going!

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Well, must have been the mood I was in :( didn't do it for me, I'll watch it again, in a better frame of mind :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Saw James Bond Casino Royale last night and loved it.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

LOL, just did an :erm: evaluation copy for my sister, got all the way to the last 10 mins and froze, needless to say, I'm now sisterless :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Excellent movie. Best Bond in years.



Out on Region 2 DVD (& Blurry) on 19th March.


However, it's already out on DVD in Region 3 (South Asia), at the excellent price of £9.99 at CDWOW

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Oh you do evaluation copies to do you! :erm:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Apparently they let you evaluate up til the last 10 mins of movies ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

This is a film I definitely want to see
SimpsonsTrailer3

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Metamorphosis, 0/10 absolute crap, don't know what Christopher Lambert was thinking of, must be strapped for cash :(


Oh yeah, big deffo on that one :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Departed . Wicked film there were 3 originals Infernal Affairs was the original one sequal and a prequal I look forward to seeing who plays a young Jack Nicholson. Mark Walburg has signed up for pt2

The Holiday a nice film

Highlander The Source. Well its Duncan MclCouds Highlander 2 and like Christopher Lamberts (Conor McCloud) Highlander 2 this is poor. Its set in the near future and The Source is what it sounds like its the power of the Immortals . If your a fan of the tv series watch it but if your not then stay away

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I hope the reason the series has gone downhill is that they've saved up all the good stuff for the movie.

'Cos if the movie is like the recent new ones on Sky, it'll be a big let down.



The Departed is excellent :tu:

One of the best movies of 2006.


They've made another Highlander? :rolleyes:

I loved the original movie, & the series was pretty good (although went crap later on). Didn't think that "Endgame" (the first Duncan movie) was too bad, not anywhere near as good as the very first Highlander movie though.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

My all time bestest ever movie :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Went to see Epic movie a week ago, no idea if it was any good or not as I fell asleep..................oh wait I guess that says it all lol

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Oh dear, the son's gone to see this tonight, guess earplugs are in order, but having said that, he likes mindless drivel :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Well my 15 year old son enjoyed it so all may not be lost lol

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I'm looking forward to Ghost Rider, may go and see it tomorrow...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I have something to say! It's better to burn out, than to fade away!......

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Last movie I saw was The Ring which was ages ago on BBC1 I think. Should've watched it when it came out at cinemas cause throughout the film, Scary Movie 3 kept popping in my head :S

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Saw Hot Fuzz on Saturday, loved it as much as shaun if the Dead.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

There can be only one!

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Edison: 3/10
Singing isn't the only thing Justin Timberlake can't do.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Departed (HD DVD)


10/10. Masterpiece.


I hope Scorcese finally wins some Oscars for this...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yep, and it isn't The Source, 2/10 barely :( what a load of ol' tosh

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fantastic Lyrics by the great Neil Young.;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

has anyone seen The Number 23? (doesn't that sentance sound like something off sesame street :p:) I'm going to see it later today as there is nothing else I remotely fancied seeing at the cinema, but it is cheapy day, and I have to go and meet someone to get some cute me to you bears that I blagged from freecycle! I might miss the ending though cos I've got to meet them at nine... :(

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Not seen it yet, but the trailer looks interesting. ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Apocalypse Now Redux - Not seen this before, very strange! 9/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

How was the film?

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

it wasn't half as bad as critics are making out.. perhaps they could see similarities between The Number 23 and a fair few other films of a psychological / horror ilk - but I'm glad I gave it a chance, and highly gutted at missing the ending! We shall go see it again before it ends its run no doubt. :tu: 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Departed: This was a fun and interesting story to see unwind and had me wondering down to the last minute about things... I liked it, i'd give an 8/10 to it :)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale (only about 3 months after everyone else) - brilliant debut for DC, good plot and features one of the most eye-watering torture scenes ever :disturbd:

Cracking film though, 9/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Except for me, as I've not seen it. Not too bothered tbh.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Worst ending ever though :erm:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Why? :confused:


I thought it was great. Fitted perfectly.


Did you expect some sort of happy Hollywood ending?


Maybe something like

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Watched Cold Mountain last night on the Beeb.

Cracking film, not surprised Renee got an Oscar.
9/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Not my cup of tea, I thought it was far to long and pretty dull 6/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Went to see Ghostrider at the weekend, I thought it was a bit slow but loved one and son enjoyed it.
7/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Snakes On A Plane 6.5/10

Ok, but not one of Samuel L Jacksons' better performances. some decent one liners, and some decent looking women in it. :naughty: :angel:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Borat 8.5/10

My jowels have just about stopped aching, I've not laughed as much about a film in many a moon. :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

sorry but I cannot stand the actor who plays Borat, I'ld rather look at the sun with a pair of binoculars than see any of his films.

Thursday night I saw 'SAW II' excellent film, didn't the the twists

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Number 23: Excellent cast let down by bad writing.

4 out of 10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Great film :tu:


I still haven't seen the 3rd one... prob. rent it.


No. 4 is in the works, apparently.........

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Borat - saw it last night, very funny in many places, but omg so cringeworthy a couple of times as he really puts his foot in it! ;) 8/10

I love the Saw films. I could watch them again and again! 1) 10/10, :disturbd: 2) 9/10 ;) , 3) 8/10 I have to cover my eyes a few times in the third one though :sick:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Illusionist 9/10

Very cleverly done story with beautiful cinematography. Can't say too much more (without spoiling the ending) but well worth a watch if you like period mysteries. :D

Also liked Ghost Rider 8/10 good effects and comic book translation without looking plastic and tacky like the Bat Man and Superman films.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I purchased a second-hand copy of Bridget Jones's Diary from Help The Aged last week. Mrs A thought it was "okay" but, of course, I thought it was a load of rubbish. what a waste of £2.99! The heavy nods towards Pride and Prejudice try to give the thing far more weight than the weak script commands.

About a Boy is a zillion times better.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

- Prestige -

Interesting film, quite different subject from your typical everyday films, focussing around the world of magic.
Fear not, this is not a children's movie. This is set in the early 1900's and explores the world of magic and what the greatest magic trick can ever be.
Lot's of twists and a good film overall :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

TMNT

Went to see this today.

8/10 totally fantastic, had me reminising about the Turtles from the old days, lol.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Nice to see some original material coming from Hollywood for a change :rolleyes:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Prestige -9/10. A really good film. Can't say much about it, without spoiling it for anyone.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Watched Borat 8/10 great film but oh my god the fight scene on the bed...................I am scarred for life lol

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I saw Norbit, was kinda funny, not as bad as reviews made out...

There was some nice comedy, and it was a nice drama too

6/10

I also saw Daddy's Little Girls, a good drama, really enjoyed watching

8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Schindlers List (being shown now on ITV3) 10/10

One of my all time favourite films, simply brilliant. :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Science of Dreams 8/10

A quirky little love story dialogued in English, French & Spanish...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

300 (cinema) -

Hmm, 7.5/10. Great comic-book sword & sandal action epic.



Casino Royale (DVD) -

Best Bond in years. Absolutely brilliant.

Eva Green... :drool:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Borat - 2/10

Didn't even make me laugh, don't understand all the hype over it. In fact, the only time I did laugh was when they were fighting naked in the hotel.

Anchorman - 9/10

Stupid but hilarious! 'I love lamp'

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale - definitely NOT the best bond, it was the first bond book, and should have been portrayed as such, as it was, it didn't work

20 movies in they make a bond which shows the promotion of James Bond to 00 status, with modern tech, and set in present day, doesn't work... they should have gone full retro and depicted it as taking place before Dr No.


Ghost Rider - Superb film, one to watch definitely.

Epic Movie - Over hyped, no real storyline as such, very disappointing in it's content..

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Children of Men 7/10 Not bad for a penny ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Shooter :tu: 8 / 10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I've heard "Shooter" is good. A bit "24" in style.
I'll have to check it out. :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Never watched any 24, well not more than 2 minutes worth, so wouldn't know.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Sunshine, worked well, 7/10 and I'm a tough marker.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

51st State

Again. Cracking film 9/10
