It certainly is in certain areas and tbh it has been for a long long time. Every city or town has its own sub culture most "straights" would never know it was going on. For example there is a family in the town where I live where 2 of the older brothers go around local coke dealers armed with a gun and rob them This does not get reported to the police and this then does not get reported to the public. (BTW I do not know these people but I do know it has happened)

Watched Adulthood last night and i can see why they were made, Both films are really good and they do depict modern life for the teens,
No respect for anyone or anything.

The parents don`t have a clue what their offspring are upto at school or what problems they have because the children don`t tell them,.
It`s a great film in the sense that it tells you that no matter what you believe, going down the drugs and thugs, bullying road does`nt make you better than anyone else and that at heart, we`re all the same vulnerable people with needs.

On a par with The Good, The Bad & The Ugly. IMO the character of Harmonica is the best Charles Bronson's ever portrayed. Jason Robards' Cheyenne also ranks as one of my favourites.

Agreed. Plus that fantastic music.

I would actually give Hancock a 9/10. And I have had the opposite experience to you, most people I know thought it was so-so and I'm the only one I know who really liked it.
That being said it wasn't at all like I expected, I think it was actually better. infact the only reason I'm giving it a 9/10 instead of 10/10 is because I heard the original script was much darker and was redrafted to make it softer to appeal to the masses as the original was supposed to be too depressing (or too real more likeley). I think it would have been all the better for the added dark.

Utter classic movie.

Guess we all have different tastes, i would of given it a 9/10 if i hadnt read parts of the original script

Still, a great movie none the less, i dont know why some people dont like it.

I mean, like "the happening" for example, now that, i can see why people hate...

3/10

Yes..and it's full of really bad acting...

A script that seems none existant.

I fell asleep twice!

I thought wanted was a bit poor..... Visually had some good, if not far fethched stunts. Flipping the car over to shoot the guy through the sunroof was ridiculously OTT. I'd score it 5 out of 10 personally.

Hancock 8/10 - Pretty enjoyable and Will Smith was good. Interesting twist on the superhero theme.

Kung Fu Panda - 8/10 - Some good laugh out loud moments.

CycoSymz · 09-07-2008, 20:21

Kung Fu Panda - Very enjoyable 8/10
