Geordie Boyo 23 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 I thought Slither was just a comedy, but it's a comedy horror, a lot like Braindead. Good to take your mate with you for this one once it's released. Don't bother downloading it thou. it just looks crap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34348 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Boyo man, you've been waiting with baited breath for about 6 months for Silent Hill to come out. I don't know how to break this to you, but that's kind of damaged your reputation as a film critic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Boyo 23 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Was going to say something next to that sig, but thought well what's there to say...the picture says it all...! I'd have it framed and put on my wall if I could. Michael & Vito Corleone .... Robert De Niro Travis Bickle Jimmy Conway Sam 'Ace' Rothstein Jake La Motta Max Cady..... Al Pacino Tony Montana Don't get me wrong I love Scarface & Al Pacino, but Robert De Niro wins hands down for actor to play the most legendary roles in gangster or psychotic movies.

Django Reinhardt 0 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Scarface (1932) Amazing how modern and real this still seems, Paul Muni gives a masterful performance in the lead as the ill educated yet strangely charismatic bully boy. Being on a bit of a gangster kick I watched this on the back of Cagney's Public Enemy and I was struck by how different the two were despite being made only a year apart (Public Enemy coming out in '31). While Cagney's Public Enemy is a tough kid who likes to act big, Muni's Scarface is a nastier character altogether, nastier and more charming at the same time. I hightly recommend this to anyone who wants to see where cinema's obsession with gangsters really hit its stride. The damning indictment of gangsters at the start is laughable when you see how sympathetically they're portrayed. I like to think it was a knowing irony on the part of the great Howard Hawks. George Raft plays his best friend and right hand man and spot Boris Karloff as a rival boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Creep Wasn't scary, wasn't entertaining, wasn't much of anything really. Ok for a rental I guess but could've been so much better... That said I did laugh at: "Jimmy give me a fag" "There's one between your fingers love" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikko 20 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Watched that Silent Hill movie last night Its alright, bit weird. Could've done with a bit better plot development or a bit more weird "scary" stuff. Kind of fell in the middle doing a bit of both but excelling at neither. Not a great film but not bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5899 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 You can still enjoy the movie, but just don't take it off face value, actually think about what's happening 'in' the movie as your watching it. It's basically for clever people like myself. 126982[/snapback] I watched it without playing the game and understood it. it all gets explained at the end anyway so whats not to understand? except the fact that they appear to be in 2 different dimensions at the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sum up at the end just cheesed it up, if they could've developed the plot a bit more then that wouldn't have been needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang - How badly promoted was this? It's taken me a year to see it and all that time I was thinking it was a (not quite art-house, but high brow) cop thriller with a few laughs thrown in. It's actually a hilarious buddy cop comedy that constantly rips the shit out of itself and similar Hollywood fare. I'd recommend it to anyone who liked The Beverly Hills Cop films, The Big Lebowski, 48 Hours etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke 1 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I watched Heat last night - very good, De Niro excellent as usual. I am seriously considering splitting up with my girlfriend after she texted me this morning after watching Crash, and failing to understand it.
