Well I had to watch to the end. You can't start a movie and not finish it.

The only way to describe that movie is to say "What has been seen cannot be unseen"

Didn't bother me at all til the barbed wire....that was a little sickening.

Am I really going to have to watch A Serbian Film just for the simple fact of comparing?

Nooooooooo. Stay away from A Serbian Film.

Nobody should have to watch a guy putting his thing into a- god, it's so depraved that I don't even want to talk about it, and I make jokes about bestiality!

Come back from seeing Robocop (the new one)! Not bad at all, was expecting something worse. And they manage to get the original lines on the film, but I really miss the skirt trough nut shot!

As anyone seen The Hunger games, and if so is worth watching?

Well, i saw him as Hughes in 'The Aviator' and he was great, but Americans as the saviours of culture, is hard to swallow sometimes... :hmm2:


:03:

Greetings,

You should be OK. Leonardo DiCaprio isn't in this film. :hmm2:

Yes. They're pretty good movies. The second one more so.

First one had a lot of shaky camera action. I need to watch it again to refresh my memory...it's been too long.

I'd watch it if I were you and hadn't seen it yet.

In my opinion, you will be disappointed.

If you are a fan of the books, you will be disappointed at what they left out of the book

If you have not read the books, you will be disappointed at a "meh" teen movie.

We had both in my household. The Frau is a huge fan of the books, I never read them. Both of us were disappointed but in different ways.

YMMV.

At least you can rent it. We had to pay good money at a theater to sit through it.

The version I saw was not exactly paid for....and it was bad quality.

I want to see it on a decent resolution sometime...

But, I thought the second one was loads better than the first one. The only thing I don't like is all the hype and super-fans.

Platapus 02-19-14 07:41 AM

Fortunately, The Frau is not dragging me to the theater to see the second one.

After Ironman3, Hunger Games, Ender's game, I think I have sacrificed enough.

Red October1984 02-19-14 11:16 PM

I'm absolutely loving Generation Kill.

It's a must-watch. :yeah:

Red October1984 02-23-14 12:45 AM

The Silence of the Lambs.

Been meaning to watch this one for a while. Good one. Easily an 8/10 or higher.

Rhodes 02-23-14 07:26 AM

Re-watch one of my favourites noir movie, The Third Man! Love the soundtrack!

Sailor Steve 02-23-14 10:25 AM

I showed my neighbor The Duellists a couple of days ago. After many viewings I still love that movie. :sunny:

STEED 02-24-14 12:46 PM

The Haunting (original version)

Still better than that re-make rubbish.

"Vanishing Point", the 1971 version with Barry Newman and some gorgeous women. The girl at the gas station, his late girlfriend, the stunner on the motorbike, and Charlotte Rampling as the Angel of Death.

I love this film, it's beautiful and very deep. A modern ( 1971 ) take on the classic book "The Pilgrim's Progress", with Kowalski being Everyman/humanity and Supersoul being God who tries to keep him on the right path. There's so many elements to it. The more I see it the more impressed I am. The Wandering in the Desert, Reverend Jay Hovah, The Temptation etc.

The music's very appropriate too.

Anyway a picture's worth a thousand words so here's three clips.
The first is the Movie Trailer.
The second's a montage of bits from the film for the fanatics that love it. For those that haven't seen it - it gives the ending away - so don't look.
The last clip - also a bit of a montage - for the fanatics.
