Meh, 'twas alright. Take it Amber Heard was the lovely young lady who spent most of the film with her baps out? If she's your thing, then defo worth a look. ;)Quote:

Just had 'A lonely place to die' out on DVD. Worth getting, you will especially enjoy the opening sequences if you have ever climbed on Rannoch Wall or done anything on the Buachille. Its a thriller, quite a high body count, but the climbing is reasonably authentic at least up to a point - in fact compared to many its positively accurate! - and if you can ignore some of the daft bits (every summer rock climbing group has a couple of snow shovels in their gear dont they?) I think you will enjoy it.
Class film. Enough saidQuote:

Just picked up Drive. Heard very good things about this so looking forward to watching it tonight. And for the record Tyrannosaur is still in my head niggling away.
Well Drive is amazing, I suggest you all watch it ASAP :thumbup:
And the soundtrack is equally as amazing.
Ah, wasn't she the one who went on Top Gear and Clarkson was drooling all over her? I remember now.Quote:

Why does it do that, only typed Batman once:confused:
Bronson was a great film, with what I felt was a particularly sad ending. I also found Warrior to be good, but the fight scene were way too hollywood for my liking. Had they done a better job with the fighting it would have been a great film. They had enough decent fighters in the film to do so.Quote:

Martyrs was a little...gross...
Watched 'Contagion' tonight and enjoyed it very much :thumbup:. A modern disaster movie though without the usual superannuated celebs and the singing nun :D
We have a choice of 'The Grey' or 'Immortals', I'll review after the viewing.
Just finished watching it. Wasn't as bad I as expected, but the last 30 minutes makes for pretty rough viewing. Overall I felt it was a good film, definitely better than the drivel like hostel etc. It's supposedly in line for a big budget holywood remake, but interesting to see how much they water it down.Quote:

Picked up The rum diary, and Kill list today both of which I've been looking forward to seeing for sometime. Anyone seen either?
Watching Rambo. "Live for nothing or die for something - your call". It's completely ridiculous like all good action films.
Rum diary for me this evening. Throughly enjoyed it, very funny in parts. Big fan of the work of Hunter, and this did him justice. Excellent work by Depp. Would definitely recommend this to others.
I watched that recently too, it was good and left me feeling a little paranoid, as decent films about epidemics should!:wink:
I went to see 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' last night. Pretty good effort. Judi Dench and Maggie Smith are always compelling to watch and they did get across some of the colour and chaos of India.

It certainly lures you in and gets you very interested, but it's one of those fins were the ending leaves you with more questions than answers. Now sometimes I like that, but not in this case and for me this is what stops it from being a great film. The acting and characters are spot on, and some of the scenes build with intensity and the violence certainly makes you wince, especially the hammer scene. I would recommend it to others as long as they don't mind being left slightly confused and wanting more.Next on the watch list are the recently purchased snow town, valkeryie and biutiful.
Snowtown for me tonight. Great film telling a horrific true story. Very well acted and shot. certainly lives up to its reviews.
Magnificent Seven (on now)
Rabbit-Proof Fence (BBC4 at 9pm)
Avengers released on thursday! Cant wait :w00t:
Just watched "The Bridge" on BBC iplayer - maintains the high standard of recent Scandinavian series.
a blatant cash-in on the coat-tails of "The Killing" but very well done nonetheless - I suppose I'll force myself to watch the other 8 episodes... :closed:Quote:

Seven Samurai is an awesome film, highly recommended :thumbup:.
