What film did you watch last night?

anyone reccomend any films that are like Triangle? i found that a rather good film, though i do think watching the trailer did spoil it somewhat.
 
I thought Triangle was brilliant! Hard to think of another movie on the same level. Didn't see the trailer before I saw the film, so it wasn't spoiled for me.

2012 - Was expecting more, it’s entertaining in its own silly way but why did they waste the CGI and budget. This film is one for the kids, what a disaster.
 
Otesánek. Weird Czech surrealist film about a man and his wife who discover that parenthood can bring unusual challenges. Zdenek Kozák impressed critics with his witty portrayal of a paedophile with a heart problem.
Taxidermia is also worth a watch if East European, surreal, darkly humorous films appeal, 'Vange :)
 
Anonyma - Eine Frau in Berlin german/russian english subbed film about a woman stuck in berlin just before the end of ww2.
Excellent if a bit grim story but based on a real book apparently 8/10
 
Watched The Appartment again the other night on TCM. This is one of my favourite films, Billy Wilder classic with Jack Lemon and must have one of the most uplifting final five minutes of any film ever.
 
Re watch of Clerks II again, oh my days the most funniest film I've ever seen, never get bored of it!

Think I will watch Clerks tonight now!
 
I Know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer Enept film making at it's best and the directors have got no one to blame but themselves, they produced, wrote, edited & acted in the movie :(
 
The Day After Tomorrow- it ran out of steam in the last third but at least it’s more entertaining than 2012 which doesn’t really say much about it. That’s it with disaster movies for a while.
 
Toy Story on Blu-ray.

Still very very good. Unfortunately the animation hasn't really held up, with some really low res textures, not-so-detailed models, and simplistic physics rearing it's head.

However once you get past that, the story is awesome. :D
 
Wall Street. Big hair, big shoulder pads and big egos! :eek:

Charlie Sheen stars in this brutal "coming of age" movie with a Freudian twist. Minor roles are played by Martin Sheen and Daryl Hannah. Michael Douglas makes an occasional appearance as "Guy with Abnormally Large Phone" (I'll leave you to join the psychosexual dots on that one).

Sheen Jr provides an angsty performance as the young man struggling with an unresolved Oedipal complex. Sheen Sr is excellent as the rough, gruff union geezer who loves Sheen Jr so deeply that he almost treats him like a son (z0mg art imitating life!) Hannah is utterly forgettable as the irrelevant blonde bimbo. Douglas plays some random guy that Sheen Jr knows from work.

Dramatic tension is provided by the filial tension between Sheen Jr and the two father figures striving for his love (Douglas and Sheen Sr). Hannah's character tries to seduce him away, but he ultimately rejects her heterosexual advances and retreats into androgyny. The climactic showdown between Sheen Jr and Douglas is replete with Freudian symbolism. I found it very moving.
