What movie did you watch last night? (21 Viewers)

[Cryptid]

I watched Hunger last night. A few good bits in it, tasty morsels if you like, but overall I thought it was too austere, detached and too interested in being artsy or gothic as opposed to being compelling. It's probably a masterpiece.

Re. Primer - I watched that before the crimbo. Agree with most of the above comments. Some great ideas and a very well judged atmosphere but ultimately let down by the ridiculous plot. In no way should this movie have been in a top 20 of the decade list. The guy from the Iwish Times left out City of God and included this and the tedious Team America. Funk that!

Watch Thirst tonight, a somewhat strange story but well worth a watch. Three and a half stars.

 

[coast to coast]

Well, I was watching Defamation on More4's True Stories, but Sky+ cut off the last half hour for some reason. It was getting very very interesting too.

Anyone know where else I might see it?

Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Just saw The Road.

Incredible.A must see.

I downloaded the screener on The Pirate Bay and watched it last night... i wasn't impressed but I think some scenes may have been cut.

The version I saw needed more cannibals.

I am gonna try to get this and watch it tonight

Slightly different from the usual firm films but still a bit muddled...Excellent performance from the 2 leads (especially Liam Boyle) and some nice support from the always excellent Stephen Graham...

Absolutely great Sound track too..

I'm sure it's great n' all but I just can't explain to you how much I loathe everything about football hooligans.

That is all.

that poster is really offputting.

On a scale of 1 to 10, this is pretty amazing.

 

[GO]

QUALITY.Thoroughly enjoyable and the sound in it is huge!

Another quality movie.I'm a Wes anderson fan anyway,but this rocks.

Is Balck Dynamite kinda a piss take of the Black Action film or just a film done in that style?

 

[ratmonkey]

Bit of both really. It does have an actual coherent narrative flow, it's not just a piss take thing. It's kind of like what Shoot Em Up is to ridiculous action films.

 

[Gambra]

Imagine every single cliche about Woody Allen movies and then turn it into an actual Woody Allen film. Jesus this was dire. Don't let the funny first 10 minutes fool you, it turns awful. Seemingly it was written 30 years ago and left by the studio as even they were dodgy about it then...

 

[Yurn!]

Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Good to see Eddie Griffin back on the 'big' screen though!!!

 

[ratmonkey]

Danny Trejo too. Doesn't do much other than chat with Seagal for a minute though.

[xsteox]

Excellent, delivers on so many levels.

- The last great Carry On.
- Practically all the regulars in a "Brits on cheap package holiday" plot.
- Wonderful dialogue and some hilarious lines
- Decent stereotyping
- June Whitfield looking great at 47.
- Joan Sims, a legend as always
- Charles Hawtrey's last. Boozed-up mummy's boy.
- Heartwarming "lock-in" final scene. Remember them this way.
- Gail Grainger - whatever became of her?
