The Damned United - 8/10
They could've used some LOI grounds most definitely
The Orphan - stupid but good. I love my horrors. 7/10
The Knowing - some atrocious acting and an unintentionally funny storyline. Think 2012 meets Signs with typical Nicholas Cage acting and you'll have a good idea what its like. 5/10.
12 rounds - easily in my top 5 worst films of all time.
Wolverine - below par and unless Bryan Singer is behind the camera I'm not watching another x men film.
2009 has been dreadful year for movies IMO. Let the right one in was quality but other than that I cannot think of many films that could be classed as above average (Star Trek and what else?!). Please God let Avatar be decent.

I'll save it for the Films of the Year thread though. :)
watched that last nite, thought it was good.Quote:

4/5
saw Law Abiding Citizen, quite a good thriller until the last half hour when it all gets a bit silly
I saw Paranormal Activity last night.
I will be sleeping with the lights on for the foreseeable future.
Watched "Thirst" the other day, can't recommend it, thought it was boring and plodding(clocked in at about 2hrs 20 minutes), was expecting good things as it was directed by the guy that did Old boy and Lady Vengeance. To make things worse I didn't realize it was a vampire movie until I put it on, I'm pretty sick of all things vampire.
Law Abiding Citizen...Brilliant!

I didn't pick up on it at all
It's a an excellent thriller, but did you not think it all got a bit too clever for its own good with about a half hour left in it?Quote:
