...to rent tonight, thinking something with a bit of action, a bit of humour and a bit of a plot, something like "kiss kiss bang bang" or "Red"
I have been browsing around IMDB but can't find anything that really takes my fancy.
Blazing Saddles?
Watchmen
Watchmen is an awful film.
Blazing saddles is funny but misses 2 out of the 3 criteria.
Lost in Space (Matt LeBlanc) one?
In Bruge
Grosse point blank
Kickass
The Expendables?
Escape From New York.
In Bruge
Grosse point blank
Kickass
Great choices, you have good taste, unfortunately seen them all 🙁
I may actually watch grosse point blank again, love the film, the soundtrack and the line "That guy is either in love with my daughter or he has a newfound respect for life" 😆
Heat/Ronin - my standard 'can't find anything new I fancy movies'
No Country for Old Men?
oldie but a goodie KungFu Hustle, though the plot isn't huge.
and <Ahem>... Jack Reacher, but you didn't hear it from me alright?
Stop! Or my mom will shoot

In all seriousness, I really liked this:

I really enjoyed seven psychopaths too.
I have decided to go with "catch 22" seven psychopaths looks interesting for another night.
Django Unchained.
I've never seen that. Looks like it has an impossibly young looking Alan Arkin in it though...
from your choices, and the 'already seens' I recommend Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Blitz or if you're feeling cheesy The Sweeney is just stupidly ridiculous, but I quite enjoyed it, its the nearest I've yet seen to GTA - the Movie...
'Intermission' might be worth a watch. I enjoyed it.
EDIT: why will nothing embed?
EDIT: thanks!
Fixed
Anyway the original Intermission is the best.
Django Unchained? Cloud Atlas.
Action? Funny? Best film you've never heard of? Plunkett & McLaine.
Shitballs. I watched that in the Cinema. Wasn't it made by Ridley Scott's nephew or summut?
End Of Watch
Shitballs. I watched that in the Cinema. Wasn't it made by Ridley Scott's nephew or summut?
I've not seen Shitballs, you got a link to the trailer? i did a video search but what I got was seriously Off Topic... 🙁
Leon?
Or maybe my go-to brain out, jaw slack, tin of beer favourite: Starship Troopers.
The guard.
Django Unchained, Once Upon a Time in the West, Blues Brothers
Watched "Almost Famous" the other week. Way, way OT compared to your spec but something different. Some ace music.
Almost Famous is great, I think I'll watch that tonight. Mmm Zooey...
Plunkett and Mc clean is well worth a look.
the last stand
Bugsy Malone ?
I watched Trance last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Danny Boyle on top form.
Untouchable - recent French film about a disabled man and his carer. It's funny, tragic, funny, sad, exciting then funny again. Great film
Burn After Reading
I'm guessing it's too late, but sounds like you need to rent Robocop.
But only if it's a dollar!
admittedly too late, but still....
Why Harry Dean Stanton isn't in the trailer though, he's the best part of the film
2nd vote for the "The Guard" brilliant film, such a great build up of pace and tension.
+1 for Untouchable. Excellent. Cockle warmimg. Funny.
Boondock Saints.
Late to this one, but try Taxi, the original French one, of course.
a bit of action, a bit of humour and a bit of a plot
Ticks all the boxes. Best film of the last year IMHO. Darkly funny, and making some pretty interesting points. And loads of people get killed. Whats not to like 😀
