The Curious Curse of Benjamin Buttons

I was very surprised by it. I thought it was very good, although it did drag on a little. It's on for nearly 3hrs...

My fave is "North by Northwest". Love it. Actually saw it at the cinema once too, way back at uni at the on-campus cinema.

Cheers Matt Love North By Northwest as well.

Its the 14 disc boxset I am working my way through. Bought it ages ago but haven't had the time to get through everything :-)

Will have to get that other boxset you linked to as it has all the other films I want that aren't in the big boxset, as well as Strangers on a trains! The bloke really was good at making films!:)

Sometimes those ratings are a fudge..Remember the Lord of The Rings.

Anyway I wasn't thinking about the age suitability..I just didn't think they were that challenging..but that's my taste.;)

Ah they were great for simply switching your brain off, relaxing and just enjoying the ride :D

Christmas vacation was indeed the best.

Each to their own though, the subtle, sarcastic and satire is alot better than the crap you get in movies today though you gotta admit...

Lord of the rings? Most boring..thing...ever.

Die Hard 4.0 - "Ultimate Action Edition" DVD

8/10


I think a better title would have been "Ultimate F-word Edition", as from what I could tell, the only real difference between this 15 rated DVD & the 12A rated theatrical cut is that this version hasn't been censored for language, and is in fact peppered throughout with the f-word & variations.[whereas the theatrical cut didn't even have one f-word, not even the full "Yippee Ki-yay..." at the end].


Strangely, I think the extra swearing actually makes it more of a proper "Die Hard" movie IMO. Can't have a "Die Hard" without lots of f-words :)

"Indiana Jones and Some Sort of Crystal Skull Thing"

Not bad I guess, 7/10 purely for entertainment value.

Okay, it may not be in the same ultra-clean category as Mary Poppins or Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang, but it was good family fun movie, where both kids and adults could laugh at, rather than being just either the kids or the adults.
