Bond , brutal.
V for Vendetta 10/10
Bender's Game, the new Futurama movie, 4/5
so much better than the last one (Beast With A Billion Backs), about the same as the first (Bender's Big Score)
pity now that the next one will be the last Futurama :(
Bond and it was very average. A poor man's Jason Bourne.
The 'villain' was useless but at least Olga was hot. Casino Royale was a solid start to the rebooted franchise but Solace has tainted it.
Tropic Thunder - I can't remember the last time a saw a film as bad as this.
Burn After Reading- they should have called it Burn Before Watching, a pile of steaming..........
Shawshank Redemption- Really enjoyed it, especially the ending. It was one of thise 'I can't belive you haven't seen it' movies so glad to have broken that duck. I thought it would be a lot more sentimental and syrupy than it actually was. One gripe though- why, oh why, did they have to show them meeting on the beach at the end? The film ended perfectly when Morgan Freeman's charcter left 'in hope.'
Unforgiven- Quite possibly, the finest film I've seen. Absolutely brilliant, especially since I've seen Clint in Fistful of Dollars and Few Dollars More recently where I didn't think he could act that well. Loved it, and intend to watch it again soon. :)
Factotum. Excellent movie starring Matt Dillon and Marisa Tomei. True story based on A Polish/American writer (Charles Buklowski) from Jersey City. Very funny movie as Dillon is fired from every horrible job he works (Pickle factory etc) as he tries to get published. A raving alco who spends a lot of time at the racetrack trying out his new"system". Made by Norwegians with no sign of Hollywood anywhere in this movie. A great start to the movie with Dillon stuck in an ice room having to use a cango hammer for minimum wage. Truely a combo of all the rotten jobs some of us have had to do from time to time.
I thought it was pretty excellent. Great performances from Malkovich, Pitt, Clooney and the bird from Fargo. Not to mention the "What have we learned?" at the end.
Saw Choke yesterday. 6/10. It was good but didn't capture the depravity of the book. Tough one to adapt I'll admit.
Sky signal packed in yesterday so went to get a DVD ... wish we didnt now!
Got "The Happening"
OMG, Has to be the worse film ever. Couldnt even bring myself to watch it all
but it all seemed to be about SPOILER: killer hay fever!
The acting in it was shocking, worst I've seen for a while!
Oh yeah, the rating ... on a scale of 1 to 10 ... it was brutal
