I enjoyed that. Decent thriller.

Went to see Public Enemies last night and I really enjoyed it. Thought the story moved along at a nice pace and that it was well cast and well shot

I watched Street Fighter on Sci Fi the other night, pure genius, Van Damme as Guile, Kylie as Sonya Blade, Gomes Adams as M. Bison (his last film before he died I think), loved it

Gary the Tennis Coach with Stiffler from American Pie, abosolutey hilarious

A. Film + Amy Adams = worth watching.

Kylie was Cammy, Sonya Blade is in Mortal Kombat

This is true, she is extremely watchable

I had a feeling I was getting that wrong, thanks for the correction

I missed the first half hour or so, so I was raking my brains for the names of some of the less prominent characters.

Has anybody seem S.Darko? I loved Donnie Darko but have a strong feeling this will be rubbish.

Definitely want to see Public Enemies before it leaves the cinema.

Atonement and August Rush are amongst the worst I've seen recently/ever. Eagle Eye was crap too.

big fan of Donnie Darko too. We have S. Darko on freeview and i havent watched it for much the same reasons as you. Went so far as to watch the trailer and it looked bearable but i still cant help but feel that they are just milking the success of Donnie Darko for the sake of it...

im going to continue to avoid this one i think....

Ya shur it's not even by the same writer/director. I'll watch it alright just for the sake of it but I won't be disappointed no matter how bad it is, expectations are that low.

Atonement wasn't great but it was worth it for that tracking shot of the Dunkirk evacuations alone, one of the best shots in cinema history in my book

If only Keira Knightley could act, and ate a hamburger every now and again, it could have been alright

Here for those of you who want to watch it

I saw the DVD the other day. Did it even get a run in the cinemas here?

I just checked rottentomatoes.com. It has four reviews so far, all of which are negative. I'd skip it for now.

Thought Atonemore was very good when I saw it, as jebus mentioned the Dunkirk shot is a real highlight, although I didn't turn my nose up at a wet Keira Knightley either.

August Rush is one of the worst films I've ever seen. Utter crap. What's the point of Jonathan Rees Myers?

I don't know. He can't even do a believable Irish accent.

Saw the box for S. darko and was quite excited really enjoyed donnie Darko but i read the back and the actors are some guy from 1 tree hill, 1 guy from step up 2 the street and some other guy of similar "MTV generation actors" and put the box back down.

Saw Public enemies very dissapointing first 45 mins could be cut some really poor writting, then a great bit in the middle followed by a draw out poorly shot ending.

Its shot really close up in a lot of parts so you end up with a cinema screen ( thats not that clear anyway ) being half full of a head and the other half being out of focus which is really difficult to watch. ( i was right in the middle of the cinema ) and makes it pretty hard to see whats going on. It may look better on a TV screen but its another to avoid really.

Don't think so. Went straight to DVD release in the US but was supposed to go to the cimenas first around Europe, obviously not Ireland though.

Just when I thought I couldnt pick out a worse DVD than whatever sh!te I got
last time, I went and outdone myself yesterday with "Flashbacks Of A Fool"

I felt mighty foolish when I had a flahback of picking it off the shelf in XtraVision

On a scale of 1 to 10 ... it was terrible!

**superfrank** · 09/07/2009, 5:46 PM

Wastched Bronson today.

It was actually really good, although the whole film is heavily reliant on Tom Hardy's performance.

Saw this recently and its a film thats hard to review for some reason.

Looks very good which you would expect from Michael Mann and Depp is good-while some of the Tough guys in smaller parts are convincing.

The first 45 minutes were missing something though. Script could have been better and I wasn't convinced I was watching the 1930s.

Def worth a look though.

**Longfordian** · 10/07/2009, 3:56 PM

Saw Role Models and The Spirit. Role Models was funny enough in parts, not a classic but watchable. The Spirit was just brutal and even the presence of Eva Mendes and Scarlett Johansson couldn't save it.
