What film did you watch last night?

Donnie Brasco 7/10

Pretty good, but not as great I have been told. The incessant "forget about it" got on my nerves as well.

Finally got round to seeing this and pretty good it was too.

Heh

... It was a bit odd seeing the guy who played the tough marine in Aliens in this role.

Argo 8/10

Ben Affleck is a quality actor and with this he proved hes a quality director too

Amazing how they pulled it off

Prisoners 8.5/10

Really good thriller, thought the ending was very good certainly not what you'd of expected

Interstellar 8/10 good movie, thought provoking. Biggest gripe is that it goes all on about science this, gravity that but

But yea lets float into a black whole in just a suit, what about the gravity?

As much as I have a certain amount of disdain towards this over hyped film, it was explained that the future beings created/modified the blackhole, so that it could be entered.

Get Hard - It's a Will Ferrel film with obvious 'get hard' jokes, generally entertaining though - 5/10

Don't fancy this tbh. White man trying to fit in with black ghetto boys. Surely been done before?

This. Everyone talks about how unrealistic that part is, don't get me wrong, it totally is but at least it's explained. It's no more unrealistic than any other part of the film.

I think it's a ridiculously unrealistic film that shouldn't have portrayed itself as scientific. Fine as a scifi film, but don't gloat how it's based on science and you have a physicist on it and then do the complete polar opposite.
However I shall shutup as that for the Interstellar thread and not here.

Mr Brooks.

Very entertaining, albeit slightly predictable.

P.s

was he going to kill his daughter at the end of the movie?

The bit that gets me about that bit is....

Its ripping the ship to pieces and battering it with debris then he ejects and everything stops

Hot Fuzz - Great watch, not the best in the trilogy.
A Clockwork Orange - Haven't seen this in years, great film.

Gran Torino.

Finally got around to seeing this. Very good 8/10.

Pighardia · 2 Apr 2015 at 05:13

2012- absolute nonsense, but highly enjoyable. Too long though. Lots of unnecessary complications at the end. 5/10

Lima · 2 Apr 2015 at 09:02

Contraband

Mark whalberg is a smuggler doing one last job to save his brother/ family from gangsters. Entertaining though rather forgettable flick. Nothing great about it nothing bad about it.

6/10

That's generous

The Equalizer - I like Denzel in most other films, but what a load of generic tosh. 6/10

arc@css · 3 Apr 2015 at 04:57

The Shawshank Redemption.

A great film with a fantastic ending to boot.

Interstellar - 10/10

So epic, made me think about what I'm doing with the time available to me. It also made tears come out my eyes a few times, although that's due to me being hungover and more emotional than usual...

Will watch bird man after dinner I think.

You cry from multiple places? Weird.
