Gran Torino - Clint Eastwood film, amazing!
+1 for Gran Torino, Clint in superb form .....
Watchmen
Bridget the Midget
into the wild
I watched Grosse Pointe Blank the other day, hadn't seen it for ages, quality film, kind of a comedy and kind of a romcom though, not too romcommy though.
People are great aren't they? We'd all look identical to an alien but we're all so different. I thought watchmen was complete bobbins. I really wanted to like it, bought the DVD but just got bored half way through.
I've just seen Inglorious Basterds which I quite liked.
Just watched The Hurt Locker and blu ray, very intense film as well as eye opening
The Usual Suspects.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, a great film that keeps you guessing , also Bob Downey Jr's redemptive performance which has thankfully steered his career back into the fore.
American History X
Donnie Darko, Leon, Pan's Labyrinth, Into the Wild 😀
MOON. ( not to be confused with "new moon" the vampire teen film)
TAKEN
Inglorious is very good as well
The age of stupid - eye opening
Ninja Assasin - superb fight scenes
I.P Man - awesome
happy viewing
Shiny
I thought Donnie Darko was rubbish.
I'll second Moon (Director Duncan Jones) saw it on DVD over the weekend. It's the sort of film that makes you question things. Not to mention a great performance by Sam Rockwell.
Some of my recent DVD rentals that I thought were pretty good:
30 Days of Night
We Own the Night
Eagle Eye
Milk
Let the Right One In
The World's Fastest Indian
Tell No One
The Lives of Others
Into the Wild
bellevue rendezvouz (excuse the spelling!).a fantastic animated film.or a film called night shift (i think?).it was a russian horror.saw it on channel 4 some time ago and quite liked it.
I still don't understand why people like "into the Wild". The voice off is so annoying, and keep repeating every 5 min (and I'm not exagerating), "I'm just a cool dude, the society is just pants" (ok i did exagerate a bit). The sceneries are at least superb, like watching a Colin Prior calendar but that's all. And don't get me on with "it's a true story".
"The Live of others" is a good watch.
Dont get it? I was blown away. Personally thought it was a stunning film, with an incredible soundtrack. Vedders best songwriting to date.
Casablanca
Local Hero
A Matter of Life and Death
District 9, one of the best films I have seen of late.
rumbledethumps= i agree
no country for old men
Bladerunner 😯
I'll also add Where The Wild Things Are - Watched this the other night and my seven year old son cried at the end. Not seen him so emotionally affected after watching a movie before which was bittersweet. As a result it made me (privately) blub too! Beautifully made film with a great soundtrack.
On the kids side, can I also mention Bridge to Terabithia!
instinct= great movie
+1 for District 9, and allegedly a good rip out there too. ;o)
Also, I enjoyed Harry Brown recently (that sounds like a euphemism) not for everyone for sure, but good watching.
Pandorum was good too, but that's if you like sci-fi/horror (I've been playing deadspace on the PS3).
+1 for instinct too, though could have been so much more.
Inglourious Basterds was hilarious at the Cinema first time round.
Recently watched Frost/Nixon on DVD and that was an awesome film.
Ronin for the best car chase scene ever and Robert De Niro at his best since Taxi Driver probably.
LEON is just an all time classic and Jean Reno is awesome in it.
Kill Bill pt 1+2 cos it's probably the most ridiculous revenge story ever, with way too much blood and guts spilt, but it's all the better for it!
Layer Cake in which Daniel Craig is much more convincing an actor than he is as Bond. Also contains the classic line "Do you know where I live? No... Well **** off then!"
Welcome to Collinwood, cos though it's not strictly a comedy, it is possibly the single funniest film I've ever watched in the most ironic way!
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas cos it's totally warped and you won't fail to be impressed by Johnny Depp's madness!
Just a few of my faves anyway...
