The Fish 9017 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Aye that was alright, but it was also played a bit for laughs and had a mint soundtrack. This one looks deadly fucking serious and much the worse for it. Definitely had me thinking about a food-tour of the states, but then I remember tv shows like "Man Vs Food" or "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" and realise that the majority of the food over there is utter shit.

Ayatollah Hermione 12768 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) A burnt out cook with a shot at redemption. It's like Rocky but making dinners. I hope there's some training montages of him chopping veg and working on his pancake tossing.Chance of a good tagline though. "One chop...and you're dead!" Is he a chef turned action hero?

Aye, but you're basically a singularity in running shorts these days. You could tackle this and still end up falling between the cracks in the pavement.

Howmanheyman 26982 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Watched an hour of 'a most violent year' before my internet decided to play up. Think BT did me a favour as it was very slow going which even the delicious Jessica Chastain couldn't make up for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Everest. Took far too long to get going and I'd lost a lot of interest before the shit hit the fan and it got more entertaining. Tangerine. Comedy drama about a couple of transexual prossy's in LA and dodgy Armenian taxi driver. The whole film was shot on iphones but you wouldn't know it (in fact I'd completely forgot that it was until someone mentioned it afterwards). It mainly stars unknown or amateur actors (and Ziggy from season 2 of The Wire) so I didn't find the acting great but it was an interesting little indie film.

Happy Face 29 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Inside Llewyn Davis Much lighter hearted than I had thought it was going to be. I grinned several times. Ending is still confusing me 3 days later and giving me pause for thought which is always good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 They've gone downhill innit. Most Film-makers that achieve perfection early in a long career do. Scorcese, Allen, Tarantino, All still doing good quality stuff that doesn't touch their classics. Looking forward to the next coen one too.

Park Life 70 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 One or two of them. All of them hopefully and then the mountain falls on them and slides and wipes out a continent. I don't think filming insurance covers it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Grit and in particular No Country For Old Men have come well after their early greats and arguably stand up to them. I reckon they've got a few more classics to come and Hail Cesar may well be one of them. Personally they only films of theirs that I've really not got are A Serious Man and Rasing Arizona (which I've never managed to watch all the way through).
