This movies release in this country should have been straight to DVD if at all, can you imagine the Americans going to see a film called "Blair" they would probably think it was a Blair Witch Project sequel and walk out half way through.

Eden Lake 4/10

Mirrors with Keifer Sutherland a reasonably good horror film 6/10

[bopdude]

Tropic Thunder -10 / 10 yep, that was a minus in front, absolute pants IMHO

How to lose friends and alienate people. 7/10

Kes (1969) directed by Ken Loach

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064541/

I last saw this years ago on TV when I was a child. I remember it was striking that I recently bought the DVD to look again. It's about a scrawny lad growing up in Barnsley where everyone is trying to put him down. He finds solace in training a young kestrel that he has stolen from a nest. There's some great scenes of him training the bird to a lure. David Bradley who plays the boy, Billy, gives a tremendous performance that outshines everyone else - including Colin Welland who plays the sympathetic teacher and Brian Glover, the sadistic games master. (Several scenes of boys in showers - weren't they all skinny then!). The dialogue is very 'Bratford' so you'll need a keen ear to hear it all and the style is very TV orientated (not suprising since Ken Loach cut his teeth on Z-Cars). It's very dated but, IMHO, still a classic piece that is well worth watching.

Saw V - 6.5/10
Missus and I like all the Saw films. this one is ok if you like the others and want a continuation of the Saw story.
If you didn't like/haven't seen the other don't bother, as you won't like it/won't understand it.
it's more about the ppl, than the traps in this one, but it's still more or less more of the same.

10/10

Just...WOW...

[Raistlin]

Let's see.....last films I saw.....

Wanted: Utter tosh, worth it just for Angelina Jolie, but that's about it - 5/10

Iron Man: Not bad, Gwyneth Paltrow was easy on the eye, easy watching and some good action - 7/10

[Russ]

Heh am going to see Wanted later

Indiana Jones - 8 out of 10. I liked it although some parts naturally were silly, like 60+ year old Indy gets punched, kicked and beaten by a man half his age, a foot taller and about 5 stone heavier yet he still manages to get up

[Gary L]

Hot Nurses Vol 2

Acting was awful, but the action was good.

I enjoyed Wanted its brain in neutral stuff just switch off rational thought before you watch it

[bopdude]

Tropic Thunder, after a long wait to see it I thought it was pants

[Russ]

Just saw Wanted. 7 out of 10 for the film (it lost a point for the twist you could see a mile off) but 10 out of 10 for the butt-shot of Angelina Jolie.

It has to be said though she's looking really skinny these days, I much preferred her curviness in Lara Croft.

[Tezcatlipoca]

I thought Wanted was awesome.

Stupid, utterly stupid. But awesome.
