Stickied The Last Film You Saw Thread (& Discussion)

Jurassic World - looked good in places but the plot/character development was laughably shit.

 

[Scrumpy]

I watched Safety Not Guaranteed last night. It's the film that seemingly landed the director the Jurassic World gig, so I had to check it out. And to be fair, it was actually pretty great.

Great film that!

A good, low budget film with an interesting story and script. My opinion of course.

I'd say 7/10 easy.

Good film that. Strange ending that leaves a few questions.

I did a bit of research after watching it a couple of years ago and, apparently it's part of, or going to be part of a trilogy. Or something along those lines, If I remember correctly.

Ex Machina: 7/10
I thought it was decent enough. It had so much potential, but then just seemed to taper off, into a bit of an anti climax, for me.

"A young coder at the world's largest internet company, wins a competition to spend a week at a private retreat belonging to the reclusive CEO of the company. One arrival he learns that he must participate in a bizarre experiment which involves interacting with the world's first true artificial intelligence, which comes in the form of a beautiful female robot."

The Pyramid
Decent and enjoyable. Acting is rather ropey in parts, especially from Jay. Different setting to most horrors and I've always enjoyed Egyptian mythology and all that bollocks. 7/10.

Mishima : A Life In Four Chapters [1985]

Fictionalised account of the celebrated Japanese author. Interestingly shot, with parts of the film showing scenes from some of his books, while others is a kind of biography and his ideas, and then the remaining parts shows his final day where he tries but fails to create a kind of revolution and commits seppuku.

A really strange and interesting guy, and the film was equally strange and interesting.

Here is his wiki entry to show the polymath he was if interested :

Just watching The Other Guys again as I caught it on channel 5 while flicking through. I have to say, the following clip is one of the most hilarious bit of film and Dwayne+Samuel pull off the 'gassed up super cop' to a tee.

I've never seen the film, but I have no idea what part of that clip is supposed to be funny.

Layer Cake (2004)

First time I've seen this surprisingly. Pretty good and unlike a lot of Brit gang flicks. Good cast and plenty of fun and action in it.

7/10

 

[Hooped Wizard]

Been watching my Neeson films recently:

Non-stop - 8/10, loved it. One of my favourite films of the last decade.
The Unknown - 6/10, very clever if a little frustrating.
The Grey - 6/10, not your typical Neeson film but it was original.
Taken 9/10
Taken 2 - 3/10
Taken 3 - 0.1/10

Also has anyone watched any of the following and what did you think of them...

The Naked Gun Trilogy
The Inbetweeners Movie
The Riddick Collection
Noah
The Bourne Films
X Men Origins: Wolverine

Filth (2013)

Film based on the Irvine Welsh novel. James McEvoy was great as Bruce Robertson, a massive twat for seemingly no real reason. However things reveal themselves as it goes on and in the end I felt a small degree of sympathy for him. McEvoy certainly makes the film what it is, without him I could see this being pretty poor

The Naked Gun movies are hilarious. Anybody with any kind of a decent sense of humour will love them, absolutely give them a watch.

Of the rest of that list: The Bourne movies are pretty good, and Wolverine gets a lot of hate but it is fine, probably not as bad as people make out.

Naked Gun trilogy is excellent
Inbetweeners is fine if you like the show
Seen the first Riddick film and barely remember a thing about it
Not seen Noah
Seen the first Bourne film and it's really good
Wolverine is ok

I have that there to watch when I can get round to it. McAvoy has done well for himself and is turning into a fine actor.

 

[lordofthepies]

Noah is amazing.

 

[silkyman]

Naked Gun and Police Squad are great. Along with Airplane.

Meanwhile, I watched Die Hard tonight. Because it was on. And if you have a chance to watch Die Hard, you WATCH Die Hard, motherfucker.

Awesome/10

The Naked Gun series is hilarious, the Bourne Trilogy is excellent too (ignore the 4th one though)

 

[BigDaveCUFC]

I watched on Amazon prime 'One eyed Monster' which was a ridiculous, but humerous film about an Alien Killer Penis......in the bad but watchable category.

Also watched Mr Baseball which I think is my Fave sports film (not many to rate between though) its about a struggling MLB star who gets shipped to Japan leagues....good film

Unstoppable

Out of control, runaway choo choo carrying naughty chemicals needs stoppped before it fucks shit up and stuff. In steps Big Denz. 6/10

 

[silkyman]

I've never seen the film, but I have no idea what part of that clip is supposed to be funny.

It's not really, out of context. The film (or at least that bit) is a spoof on over the top cop supermen with those two playing the totally stereotypical action hero cop types.

If you like the Naked Gun films, check out Police Squad

Digging up the Marrow
Found footage has outstayed its welcome, which is why I was pretty surprised that I enjoyed this. Liked the whole idea of them trying to find 'real monsters'. Designs of the monsters was pretty cool too. 7.5/10.

Poltergeist
Bit rubbish really. 5/10.

That the new one? The old one is brilliant.

Aye, he's on 'bout dat remake. Doubt I'll watch it myself.

 

[SALTIRE]

Me neither, I tend not to watch remakes anyway.

 

[mowgli]

Me neither, I tend not to watch remakes anyway.

Same as that, gave up with remakes after The Evil Dead and The Omen efforts which were shit, why try remaking classic films what's next The Exorcist?

 

[JustinQPR]

Poltergeist
Bit rubbish really. 5/10.

Saw this yesterday. Even worse than I expected, felt like every other generic ghost film released in the last 10 years.

4/10
