Just back from Saw 3 9/10

The best of the trilogy. By far the goriest twisted film I have ever seen.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Silent Hill, the other night. Crap.

If I may be so bold, may I recommend that no-one else in the entire world ever watches this film - it's simply 2 hours of your life that you're never going to get back...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I enjoyed it...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I really enjoyed it, and did find bits of it pretty scary.

The managed to capture everything that was great from the games.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Slither - It was okay, not great but watchable.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I couldn't agree more, if I hadn't tried so hard to forget what a steaming pile of poo it was, I would have posted a warning. May be the worst film ever made 0/10 :td: :td:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I'm willing to bet that there's worse films out there than Silent Hill... I've not seen it, but I'm sure there's something worse.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Ultraviolet for starters!
What a load of rubbish.
Totally flat, no depth at all.
Most of the camera work/effects reminded me of Captain Power!
It's as though a group of students got together and made a film about their favourite comic and somehome managed to talk Milla into being in it.

3/10 and thats only because Milla was able to make an ok job out of a terrible role!

I seriously felt cheated by this film.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I've seen both and agree Ultraviolet is bad and your 3/ 10 is probably what I'd give it however that still makes it three times better than Silent Hill

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Thank you, Xaccers and TheDaddy - just saved me the price of a cinema ticket; I was pondering whether to go see Ultraviolet - you have helped me with that. :)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

And for Silent Hill?

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Borat movie
I was in stitches laughing at it, would recommend not taking the children to it as theres a scene where both are running & Fighting completely naked leaving nothing to the imagination.
It is very funny show and shows how American really thinks about themselves.
I'd give it 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Fletch.
Watched it yesterday...i'd forgotten how funny Chevy Chase is in this move. What a classic.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Am really looking forward to seeing this... glad you didn't say it was a disappointment :)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Me to :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Was never going to see that - not a horror fan.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Should be seeing this tomorrow.


Looks excellent. Great director, great cast, and based on a great Hong Kong movie (Infernal Affairs).





I really wanted to see this before it came out, as I love Kurt Wimmer's previous movie "Equilibrium".

I've heard so many bad things about it, though, that I don't think I'll bother.


Apparently the studio edited the fight scenes, and also cut more than half an hour from the movie overall, rendering it pretty crap. There is an unrated extended cut region 1 DVD, with an extra 7 minutes of footage, but that's probably not enough to rescue it.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes, Equilibrium was cool (imho) - especially the GunKata.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I can't believe this film has any links with Equilibrium!
Milla spends most of the movie with no nose, only two nostrals due to the crummy airbrush effect everyone has.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

You know how you text me and told me to watch it... Well.... I forgot :(

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Let me know what you think bud!

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Switchblade Romance...well the last half hour of it... I didn't get it. :dunce: 4/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

9/10


Absolutely bloody brilliant movie, great story, great script, great direction, great cast. Even DiCaprio was great, & I normally find him annoying.



The Departed :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I watched this last night, I agree with almost everything you said, 8/10 :tu:, not much chance of a sequel though is there :)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

20mins of Ultraviolet and then I decided my time is too important to waste on a teenage kids movie. ie. if I was 15 and fancied Milla that much I'd watch it.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Pirates of the Carribean - Dead Mans Chest

I quite liked it but didn't think it was as good as the first. 6/10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Green Street - brilliant.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Waynes World 2 - Excellent!

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Lord Of The Rings - Return Of The King.

One word
..

Wow.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I quite agree :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

X Men 3 - The last stand. 1/10.

Absolute s...manure. It was just like a patchwork of set-pieces, which weren't that good anyway. I was even wanting the bad guys to win, as a result of what little story there was. Phoenix - what was the point to writing that character in? She did nothing really, apart from make large fountains.

A major let down after X Men 2...

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Garfield - A Tale Of Two Kitties

I quite liked this even though it's for kids. 6/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale - Very good 10/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

PotC Dead Man's Chest - enjoyed it, can't wait for the next one; 7/10

MI3 - thought it actually had more depth than the previous ones, its the usual leave your brain at the door action but still quite well done; 6/10

Stormbreaker - really enjoyed this, think of bond but with a 14 year old instead, but not "made for children" patronising; 7/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Omen (remake)

Why did they bother...From what i can remember of the original, it's basically the same film apart from one scene near the end.

If you're gonna remake a film you don't just copy the original exactly. It needs to have the same basic outline but with new direction.

Watch the original film in this case. It's a lot scarier. The new Damien just can't pull off the evilness of the original.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

When a stranger calls.

I was really looking forward to seeing this and it started out well then just lost all momentum and the ending was really poo, big disappointment.

4/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I know what you mean about the ending, but the suspense value was fairly good. That's the reason I didn't mark it down as much as you did. You're a harsh critic Jules. :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Toy Story 2


Still great :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale - the current one, not that 1960s spoof thing.

Well worth the cinema ticket. A reinvention of the Bond genre. The reliance on far fetched gadgets has gone. Only one decent chase scene, and that was entirely on foot albeit through a building site with some rather death defying leaps. The film seemed to have a gritty edge to it, in most cases, relying on the actors rather than apparent computer effects. Might have been just a tad long though, I was certainly wondering when we'd reach the end for the last 20 minutes or so.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

As above - Casino Royale.

9/10 - perhaps the poker game went on a bit too long; other than that, very gritty and extremely enjoyable.

Great opening sequence, and for once, not based on special effects.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Got to agree with those reviews above, Casino Royale was fantastic. I have never liked a bond movie but I was gripped from start to finish with this one. 9/10, would have been 10/10 but that was such a waste of an Aston :Yikes:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale again 6/10

Slightly disappointed with the lack of gadgets, and not too sure if the new Bond is quite posh enough (ie well spoken, groomed etc).

Other than that quite enjoyable :dozey:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Slight switch to "Film I want to see" - Hot Fuzz, from the "Spaced" and "Shaun of the Dead" team; here's the latest trailer.....
http://www.workingtitlefilms.com/tra...iler_large.php

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Best comment i've heard yet - i feckin hate the gadgets so i should enjoy it a bit more.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

That looks good! Will go see that I think. I really liked Shaun of the Dead :)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Agreed thats a definite viewing in my book. :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Saw Casino Royale today - 9/10. Brilliant. Like what was said before, no stupid gadgets.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Looks fantastic doesnt it, I also loved Shaun of the dead. And spaced is an all time classic series (Especially the resident evil episode, the paintballing one or the one with the Empire strikes back ending).

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Munich

Long, but very good.

I'd be interested to know how historically accurate it actually is.


Tim Burton's 'A Nightmare Before Christmas'

Brilliant. Great fun, always stands up to repeat viewing.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale


9/10 - brilliant Bond movie. Best in ages :D


And Eva Green (Vesper)... mmmm, especially in that dress in the casino :drool:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Borat, I like 8/ 10 :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Just watched that tonight too. Is good. 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Starship Troopers - on TV last night; I had forgotten how gory, and how funny it was (taking the mickey out of right-wing militarism).

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Deck the halls 6/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Illusionist - Great plot, great acting, and beautiful scenes of Vienna - very entertaining.

Little Miss Sunshine - Humerous, though rather dark at times. At some points I thought it would become slapstick, but the writing neatly avoided this. Very enjoyable, well worth watching.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Scrooged


Great stuff :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I agree, that's a great film.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

"We couldn't get the antlers to stay on" (on a mouse!)
"Have you tried staples?!" :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Rocky Balboa now this is surprisingly a good movie,Stallone has (and im as surprised as anyone) made a very good movie here.Dont expect a lot of fights expect a warm heartfelt movie that is quite emotional. If you like Rocky you should love this :)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I heard this to, he gives a pretty memorable speech in it so I am told, I think I'll definately be watching this film

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

City of God, :angel:
Fantastic 10/10, one of the best movies i have seen in a long while, and i watched Trainspotting last week. ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

i have to agree 100%. I'm a big Rocky fan and to be honest I saw it just for the sake of it being Rocky. I wasn't expecting much from it after Rocky 5, and could not see how much more mileage we could get from a 6th installment. However I have to say that this is a fantastic feel good movie, and Stallone is very convincing as the ex boxer, fighting his inner demons as such, with unresolved issues to finish. One of the best films Ive seen in a long time, has good moral/ethical message, some great lines, excellent acting, and a good bit of boxing at the end.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Casino Royale, finally got round to seeing it 9/10 - Cracking bond movie and no invisible cars, laser beams or shakey cam, bout bloody time!

Mission Impossible 3 - okay movie - worth a watch - 7/10

Ice Age 2 - Scrat gets me every time :rofl: - 8/10 :tu:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

has anyone seen Crank?

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes. Like The Transporter, but without any plot ;)

It's one big, daft and pointless film, which is hugely enjoyable. ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I thought Crank was a great film, 9/10 for me. Well worth watching.

Just watched Snakes on a Plane, it was ok, take it for what it is and you'll enjoy it. 7.5/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yes - great mindless fun (with lots of violence and sex).

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Snakes on a Plane - I thought it was a pretty good and entertaining film. 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Shaun of the Dead on ITV2.

Every time I see this film I love it more and more. It's a great big slice of fried gold.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

:tu:

Last film I saw was Garfield. It wasn't bad at all. Watchable.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (extended DVD)

8/10

Still brilliant, although the Shire stuff at the start drags.


The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (extended DVD)

9/10

Awesome.


Helm's Deep....:D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Night at a museum great film 10/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (extended DVD)

10/10


Outstanding :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Employee of the month

Typical American movie but enjoyble throughout. 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

The March of the Penguins :)

Very enjoyable, although sad at times 8/10

Happy Feet next ;) (I have a thing about penguins!)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

It's what happens when you trust a man with an egg.

Kill Bill - just watched it tonight on BBC2. Incredible. The mixing of black and white with colour, the music, the stylised violence, the Japanese animation (I forget the name)... One of the best movies I've seen in a long while - 10/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Kill Bill Vol1 is much better if you watch the uncut (also don't go black and white) version. That's a 10/10 film.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Will have to watch the DVD some time - when I get a DVD player. I do like black and white film/photography when it's used in a creative way.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Deja Vu. Pretty good action film based up some decidedly dodgy "science". Typical Jerry Bruckheimer fare: Good action, good explosions (it starts with one mother of an explosion), good performances from all the lead characters and an OK story.

6 out of 10 (just don't expect to think about the story too much).

---------- Post added at 13:50 ---------- Previous post was at 13:48 ----------

Actually, I think that the way Black and White is used in Kill Bill 1 really does add impact to the film.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

You don't have one? I am shocked lol


Omen......not as good as the original 6/10

Snakes on a plane..............not bad I suppose 7/10

Pierpoint.....good film 9/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I watched "The Running Man" last night, i'd forgotten how cheesy it is...I really enjoyed it 8/10.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Yeah, I watched that too. I'd not seen it before. Total cheese, but pretty good 7/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Hey - I only recently (last few months) obtained colour TV. "Borrowed" a portable from my parents when my black and white TV died on me.

re: Rate the last movie you saw

Parents are very useful for many things (my daughter at Uni has found) - food, money, clothes, a sympathetic ear. :hugs:

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

"you, me and dupree" - I struggled to stay awake - it's a comedy of 1 hour 45 with about 5 mins of laughs.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Kill Bill 2/10
So bored I nearly died.
GF managed to save me from it by finding something else to watch by the time the big nosed schoolgirl was dead and the masked re-enforcements arrived, which I suppose is longer than I watched his other cure for insomnia: Pulp Fiction (-3/10)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Agreed. I too don't like Pulp Fiction. Yet when I tell people that, they always act like I've just said the worst thing in the world. And after seeing the trailer for KB, I'm not bothered about that either.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I generally get the same reaction about KB, PF, and the Godfather when I tell people I dont like any of them.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Goodfellas - long but a modern day classic.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I think Tarantino films are very much like marmite - you either love them or hate them. Personally i'm a massive fan :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Rocky Balboa - Probably one of the best Rocky films imho 8/10

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Monty Python's Life of Brian

10/10.


Saw this last night with some friends, it was a late show at the Cambridge Art Cinema.


First time I've seen it in years, & it's still absolutely hilarious.


One of the funniest films I've ever seen.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I agree, some classic lines "bignose"

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Bignose? Who are you calling "big nose"? Your nose is going to be three foot wide across your face by the time I'm finished with you!

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

Still cant be beaten by "He's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy!!!"

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

crucifictions a doddle :D

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

"Stop saying that!"

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

great race the Romans ;)

to stay on topic the Charlie sheen and Keifer sutherland version of The Three Musketeers was on earlier I watched some of it this time round but it is a good film for just soem easy going entertainment ;)

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

I sort of agree. It's a nice enough film, with some good laughs. No massively funny bits though, and I am starting to get a little bored with Ben Stiller/Owen Wilson/Will Ferrell films as they do seem to have released an awful lot of them over the past five years. I put them together as they are often in each other's films.

re: Rate the last movie you saw
 

DOA - Dead or Alive. 7/10
Leave your brain at the door and just sit back and enjoy this silly yet well filmed movie.
