latest film/ dvd you have seen

I watched Moneyball for the first time last night, since seeing it at the cinema on release; just as good and highly recommended, wife enjoyed it too, so no need whatsoever to be into sports films or baseball to get into it... though I expect Brad Pitt being the lead helped me convice her to watch it!

Last film I saw was Taken 3.

Not as ***** as I was expecting, especially as I hadn't seen the first 2

You really should see the first two. Great trilogy of films. Neeson at his best 8)

 

[sith-smith]

I do plan on seeing the first two at some point.

I like a bit of vigilante revenge justice in the hands of someone skilled! 8)

I am the law! Put down your weapons and prepare to be judged 8)

Watched interstellar, first hour and a half good, but the ending got weird
Ok to watch though.

Watched a few over the last week.

Ex-Machina - fantastic movie. 4/5
American Sniper - If you can get over the generous lashing of patriotic nonsense it's not a bad movie. 3.5/5
Gandhi - One of those films i had never got round to seeing. It's a great movie, if a bit long! 4/5
The Guest - I read on line this was a brilliant psychological thriller. It's not. It's mainly ****. 2.5/5
Munich - Another one i had not got round to seeing. Really good but loses it's way a little towards the end. 3.5/5
Big Hero 6 - Really good sci-fi animation. It'll do more for kids than grown-ups but still very good. 3.5/5
Oh, and i saw Birdman last month. A very average movie. Boring in parts and has a massive cop-out ending. Could be the worst film to ever win a Best Picture Oscar. :shock: 3/5

I also saw Taken 3 last night, loved it! Thought the second was a bit too similar to the first but this one was a good twist on the story I thought, not what I was expecting. I also loved the bad guy, won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it but it reminded me of the kind of cool ridiculous flamboyant bad guys you got in 80s Arnie movies

 

[theguiltyone]

Whiplash, really enjoyed it. Probably the best movie I've seen in a long time.
Snowtown, a few years old now but possibly the most disturbing movie I've ever seen and its a true story!

Yes, watched that last night. Really good film.
Tho you need to see Ex-Machina as that's significantly higher in terms of best films i've seen this year.

I think that went to show that to win an oscar its about how you market the film to those that matter. A satirical take on superhero movie.. I bet the snobs of the academy hate seeing big budget men in tights films and wanted to make a trite point. Like a scorned teen lover.. I agree, it was yawnsome. I've seen better takes on hollywood nonsense on curb your enthusiasm. I will praise the way it was filmed.. the 'single shot' technique will probably inspire a load of wannabees just like the found footage style was aped to ****.

 

[sith-smith]

I know it's an older movie, but saw Shaun of the dead the other night.

Awesome.

Have even met Simon Pegg as well 8)

He's even seen my collection

 

[weasel]

Is that a euphemism? Lol

 

[sith-smith]

Ha. :lol:

No. Literal

 

[weasel]

Ah ha! :wink: :lol:

"The Beach" Every Asia Backpackers dream!

 

[edd_jedi]

Talking of Taken 3 I watched "A Walk Among Tombstones" last night which is another Liam Neeson film. Also very good I thought, pretty similar to his normal role in films and a bit more violent than usual.

 

[theforceuk]

Watched the Lego Movie with family last week, thought it was really good and children loved it.
Great family entertainment - 8/10.

I saw that too.

Not seen Neeson in many films accept Love Actually and TPM.

Now it seems everything he's in a him shooting, punching someone. Is that his usual role?

Not very Jedi like!

Part of me really wanted to see that, but was concerned it was more of family/kids movie, so didn't want to sit in the cinema on my own amongst kids and families! :?

:lol: Yeah think you made the right choice, watch it at home.

 

[sith-smith]

Glad I made the right choice.

Wouldn't want to be seen as the next J. Saville!! :twisted:

How's about that then!

 

[edd_jedi]

I just watched Return of the Jedi. What a ******* great film it is! 8) I try and watch the films every couple of years to keep them fresh but I usually have them on in the background while doing something else, I made a point of actually watching it this time :lol: I can highly recommend the 'de-sepcialized' HD versions, as good as we'll get until Disney pull their finger out

 

[Stormtrooper37]

Now don't laugh, I watched...................um Frozen at the week end. My 2 best mates have daughters (the girls had watched the film at least 5 times before) but wanted to watch it again and I had no choice but to sit through it.

I usually hate Disney films, but really quite enjoyed this one.

Well done Disney one of your better efforts!

Fight Club
Zodiac
