What DVD / Video did you watch last night? (pt2)

[Pie 1]

Final 2 eps of The Wire S2.
Been re-watching all the seasons again.
S2 always felt a little weak when I first watched it a couple of yrs ago, but in relation to the whole thing now I've totally changed my mind.
Brilliant season with some pivitol details set up for the remaining seasons & some other stuff that I missed or didn't interpret correctly 1st time round.

 

[El Jefe]

last night i watched the toxic avenger - wow! what a tremendous piece of trash! it's a work of art alright.

Yep, Troma got tired quickly but Toxy is the most perfect realisation of their vision

Or something

 

[andy2002]

Spike Lee's Girl 6 - interesting at times but a bit of a mess.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Doctor Who - Robot (with info text)

 

[Zabo]

El baño del Papa - Aki Kaurismäkie goes to Uruguay, if you get the drift.

 

[Madusa]

yesterday i watched High Art and Lost and Delirious. Both lezzer movies. Both kinda shit.

 

[butchersapron]

El baño del Papa - Aki Kaurismäkie goes to Uruguay, if you get the drift.

The Confession - the film Costas Gavras made straight after Z. Two hours of torture of a top Communist politician by the security services - based on the real life experience of Artur London. Signified Yves Montand and Simone Signoret's break with the Party as well. Some bits are obviously not that relevant anymore and if you don't know the history of the International Communist movement from the Spanish Revolution onwards you may very well lose track of the various 'plots' - still very much worth watching though.

Sunstorm - standard scando thriller with a gorgeous setting - that's pretty much all it has going for it.

Mysterium Occupation - hilariously bad Belarussian film about partisans in WW2, every crude national politcal and national stereotype you could wish for and at the centre the all suffering belarussiasn. Rubbish.

 

[Orang Utan]

i have just started watching marley & me - jennifer aniston, owen wilson, a dog and REM. i hate them, but the dog's going to die, so i''ll endure it.

 

[andy2002]

Hancock - great first half-hour or so, then a stupid twist sends the rest of the film straight down the shitter.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Tropic Thunder - a mixed bag really, bit laboured in places, very funny in others with a great performance from Robert Downey Jnr. On the whole really enjoyed, good Saturday evening fodder.

 

[jeff_leigh]

House of 1000 corpses

Midnight Meat Train

Fucking great film init?

I'm halfway through Panic In Needle Park. Its pretty good so far.

Watched Bruno as well last night. Good, but not a good as Borat. More of a series of shocking moments than a proper story like Borat, not as long either.
