The Impossible, I was expecting an over the top dramatisation of the tsunami in 2004, Very strong film and didn’t realise it was a true story til after. Very emotional.

Secretariat
Moon
The Help
Cabin in the Woods
Senna
Scott Pilgrim vs The World

I watched “The Debt” last night. Very very good (if you like spy thrillers)

Saw Dredd last week on DVD. Very impressed with it, but very brutal, as commented on earlier here. Wasn’t expecting much TBH, especially after that Stallone shambles but it was a real eye opener. I used to love the Judge Dredd stories in 2000AD and I had it from the first issue for several years.

It has to be the only film I’ve ever wished I’d seen in 3D.

Loved the use of all the T4’s in the opening chase sequence as well.

….Human Centipede; Sat through the whole film thinking this can’t get any more disturbing …..
You obviously haven’t seen the second one then!!

I actually meant the second one, (not even seen the first)! 😳

+1 again for how to train a dragon, I have a 6 year old so watched it loads, still enjoy (there is a series coming out for it as well )
+another for Dredd- not expecting much but def over delivered

Moulin Rouge made me want to gouge my eyes out, god it was bad

Where is the rogue trooper film, would be awesome

Apparently he’s also making a third one which is going to “make the 2nd one look like a Disney film” 😮

Despite it being panned by the critics I really enjoyed John Carter, good sort of Star Wars romp.

Castaway

wasnt expecting much from Argo but saw it at the weekend and it was brilliant!

Will probably get flamed for this but Battleship.

My expectations were very low but actually in a switch your brain off sort of way, it was pretty good.

I thought Argo was really good too.

Biggest ‘wow’ film I’ve seen in ages though was Tyrannosaur. It was cheap in HMV and I saw Paddy Consodines name on the front so I bought it never having heard of it, let alone having any expectations.
Totally blown away. I NEVER cry at films – I was blubbering like a baby.

Watched Predators on Film 4 last night expecting it to be rubbish but actually I rather enjoyed it !

Crash – what a great film.

The car crash rescue scene is probably my favourite scene out of any film i have ever watched. Very moving stuff.

7 Pounds – Will Smith in a surprisingly moving film
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close – stayed just the right side of twee to make for a very satisfying experience

Cabin in the Woods

Good call.

Machete

My expectations were low but what fun it was.

edward2000 – which Crash film?

edward2000 – which Crash film?

2005 with Sandra Bullock and Matt Dillon

Hot Tub Time Machine – it’s just so ridiculous.

+1, I thought it would be rubbish but i pissed myself laughing all the way through.
