Park Life 70 Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Happy Face, I saw World trade Centre on DVD yesterday. First of all, I'll admit the connection made with Iraq was pretty slight, but I still think it would have been better not to make it. But as for the rest, I think it was one of the worst films I have ever seen. Dull, slow, and tedious are all adjectives that could be applied to it, I very nearly gave up on watching it. Some bits were truely cringeworthy, I kept on having to pinch myself to remind me that Olver Stone directed this garbage. Seriously, anyone who hasn't seen this take my advice and don't bother. You haven't seen Alexander the Great then. Oim emperor of the world to be sure. Agreed, Alexander was terrible. It was incredibly dull and the decision to make the Macedonians speak with Irish accents (i'm guessing on the basis that Farrell couldn't do anything else) was ludicrous! Farrell's popularity is still a mystery to me. The man has 0 charisma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke 1 Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Just got back from an advanced screening of Hot Fuzz. Absolutley fantastic, a hundred times better than Shaun of the Dead... Cost £10, which is a bargain considering I was also given a copy of the latter on DVD and a signed poster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34425 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Fuck off man, Rocky II is the best. IV is when it descended into a comic (it was well on its way to that in III though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I watched the new Rocky last night and I must say it reminded me a lot of the first one. Sure it's more ridiculous and the fightings not as good but by the end I was still with him for every punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Carr's Gloves 3195 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Children of men. Crap really I wanted to like thjis because it is arty and indy but it was shite. And if I find out who played the Geordie I am going to hunt him down and "kill him" (in a Dr evil voice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Children of men. Crap really I wanted to like thjis because it is arty and indy but it was shite. And if I find out who played the Geordie I am going to hunt him down and "kill him" (in a Dr evil voice) Loads of people seem to like it but my mate thought it was pants too. Anyway, watched 'All About My Mother' by the same director who did 'Volver'. It's absolutely class - a tale of the bitter twists of fate with a pregnant, HIV infected nun, ladyboys and heroin-addicted actress set in modern-day Barcelona. Well worth a watch.
