Saw the Bourne Ultimatem a few weeks ago. brilliant show. better than the other 2 also which tells you how good it is.

Clerks, Chasing Amy, Mallrats, Dogma , Clerks 2
Not obscure but not exactly mainstream either

Saw Hairspray last week. Really Enjoyed it. Any film that has John Travolta in a female fat suit dancing with Christopher Walken has to be worth seeing anyway.

Would be a good "date" film.

Going to Die Hard 4 tonight. Heard it's good. any comments?

You heard right. A hacker-oriented plot, but if that doesn't bother you, it's good fun.

I'd second those sentiments, and add that Jason Bourne > James Bond

I enjoyed that alright, first proper British gangster movies in ages, and it felt good to be rid of Guy Ritchie's stereotypes

Just watched Being John Malkovich for the first time in a few years and it still blows my mind.
Charlie Kaufman + Spike Jonze = Movie Heaven.

I enjoyed Ultimatum and it's the first movie I've seen this summer that was above average. I don't think it surpassed number 2 but it was still enjoyable. ****ed all over the so called summer blockbusters.

If that kind of thing is your bag then I recommend "Once Upon A Time In America" with De Niro and James Woods, if you haven't seen it. Superb film. Pees all over the Godfather trilogy in my view.

Good film alright but no Goodfellas...

Seeing as Ingmar Bergman won't be making any more films i was wondering what forum members think of his films.

I've seen "The Seventh Seal" and "Persona".

Seventh Seal was quite good I thought. A fairly simple story about life and death.
Persona is bit tougher going. Only 2 characters and long sections of dialogue but very good and one to make you think.
