What film did you watch last night?

Saddest and one of the best intros ever, huge emotional start to a very good film. (Up by the way).

Kingsman - I loved every minute of this style over substance pastiche. It was a fun take on spies, more Austin Powers gentleman spying than any of the JBs (Bond, Bourne or Bauer). 5/5

Celda 211. Gritty Spanish thriller involving a riot, a prison guard, and a pregnant woman.

8/10.

The Land Before Time

:cool:

The Salvation. Traditional Danish Western featuring the legendary Mads 'Mad' Mikkelsen and controversial Norwegian actor Jurgen Hurgen-Flurgen.

8/10.

'It follows' over Halloween, only because I couldn't locate The Babadook for some reason. - 4/10, fairly boring and not scary.

Watched Spectre last week, waited a while to see if it grew on me when I thought about it. 5/10 at most, was bored throughout the vast majority of it. Blonde girl saying "I love you" after like 1 day with him made me lol.

Story of a group of teens in South Central L.A - not your usual gangster story. Pretty bonkers from start to finish.

Very well written and good screenplay.

I too saw this, very enjoyable mish-mash of different themes

7/10

The Killer Inside Me. Casey 'Ben' Affleck stars in Michael Winterbottom's adaptation of John Curran's screenplay of Jim Thompson's novel. If you're a hardcore misogynist who enjoys serving up a healthy dose of domestic violence, this could be the movie for you!

8/10.

Just back from watching Spectre. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
9/10

You seen The Hunt, also starring Mads?

Loved it for a Bond film.

Yes, that sequence is famous for making grown men cry like little girls. Absolutely brilliant though.

(yeah, I blubbered...)

Me too

Fantastic movie.

I've just re-watched an old favourite of mine - The Mist (2007), still one of the best horror films I have seen and has possibly the darkest ending to date. Brilliant - 8.5/10

And last night I came across a movie I have never watched before, Creepshow (1982)
Directed by George A. Romero and screenplay written by Stephen King, how could you go wrong

9/10 just for the whole style and uniqueness of it, really really enjoyed it. Should have watched on Halloween though

I don't know why I haven't heard of this till it came up on netflix its a great real life story of a british patrol in a mine field. 8/10

Also watched this last night. Would rate it the same. Definitely worth a viewing.

Sankari · 4 Nov 2015 at 09:35

We Own the Night. Pretty good NY-based drug drama.

7.5/10.

The Fear of Darkness. Excruciatingly poor Australian thriller with some of the worst acting I've ever seen in my life. How this got made in the first place is simply beyond my imagination. It must have been a tax writeoff for someone.

How was Damien Garvey blackmailed into phoning in his usual 'hard cop' performance? Did they catch him having sex with a donkey?

1/10.

Yes. Big personal favourite. Annika Wedderkopp is gorgeous, with a rare talent.

dasBOT · 4 Nov 2015 at 10:26

re-watched A Bridge Too Far 9/10

beachBOYken · 4 Nov 2015 at 11:17

Late Phases on Netflix.

Not great but it was ok. About deadly beasts (full moon) attacking a small town community.

Birdman 6/10

I'm not sure why this film exists, tbh. It's just so weird. But it doesn't go anywhere. I like some weird films (Being John Malcovich is great!), but this is just weirdness without any purpose.
