Jimbo 133 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 Watched Remember The Titans last night. Has Denzil made a bad film? The Pelican Brief was pretty shite so I recall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Hannibal - 6/10 Worst of the books so the film obviously suffers with that (and Hopkins hamming up Lecter too much, Cox's Lecktor was better) but I still find it enjoyable. If - 7/10 First time I've seen this and it's good but I'm not entirely sure which bits were real and which fantasy. A Place In The Sun - 7/10 A bit melodramatic and I think it would have worked better as a Hitchcock type thriller (which it seemed to veer towards at points) but thoroughly enjoyable and Monty Clift is very good. Stardust - 8/10 Excellent Princess Bride type affair (not as good like but not much is) with De Niro one of many fine performances. Only the main guy lets it down a bit on that score.

David Kelly 1117 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 The Wrestler - 6/10 Ok but nowt special. I found the constant shots of Mick Rourke from behind annoying (Aronofsky always seems to me like he wants to be noticed in his films) and also found it difficult to concentrate on anything except how fucked up Rourke looks these days. The bits with his daughter were really good though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackies the Lad 0 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Defiance - about the The Bielski Brothers. You tube has 6 part documentary telling the true story. Sad film, but interesting and well portrayed, how much they struggled against all odds to survive the Germans during WWII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Gran Torrino - 8/10 Well made film that I really enjoyed. Eastwood is class and could be playing a retired Dirty Harry. The Korean kid isn't much of an actor but it doesn't harm the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
