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

[dlx1]

a bit late to see as most have seen moths ago.

28weeks later

I Am Legend - Will Smith most of his film are shit but thinks this was ok.
Could have been good to see monsters kill people early on to see then ending of human race.

 

[sojourner]

I quite liked the Descent. It seems most UK horror films end up being pretty good, and yeah the chick only aspect to it is great

Oh, I didn't mind it either - it was quite funny as well as jumpy

So which one did ya fancy then? (me - I liked the one with the short dark bobbed hair)

juno -

it's not as exceptional as the critics say.
great soundtracks though.

Two recently. Beowulf. Bah.

Valley of Elah. An antiwar movie: powerful, subtle and well crafted.

 

[Part 2]

Tell No-One

French film, bit long winded, too many plot twists at the end, characters I didn't really care about and shot in a style I didn't like.

I suspect others would enjoy it though.

I did.

 

[Orang Utan]

Munich - much better than expected - though there were some unintentional laughs in a couple of bits

i watched this last night. It was good, but the ending felt a bit anticlimactic.

 

[Yetman]

Trailer Park Boys Xmas Special....

sniff....after seeing all of the seasons from the start this was the icing on the cake. I'll miss those guys

 

[passenger]

no country for old men best film ive scene in years

a bit on the dark side mind you

 

[G. Fieendish]

Episode 1 of Metal Mickey....
"Anyone for a Atomic Thunderbuster....?".

 

[dublx]

Swallow My Squirt Vol 3. Not as good as Vol 1 though.

Interesting. I thought the ending was very powerful, and was the whole focus of the movie.

Spoiler

I felt like it was building up to some huge conspiracy about how the army had tested chemical weapons on him or something, and it never came.

I felt like it was building up to some huge conspiracy about how the army had tested chemical weapons on him or something, and it never came.

I know, but in a way, that would be the expected ending. The truth, imo, was so much more effective. A casual murder, committed over nothing, because the dehumanized troops coming home from war are so warped, that all of a sudden, you find yourself stabbing your best buddy.

It wasn't about a chemical weapon, it was about the cynical and uncaring destruction of the psyches of thousands of young men forced to fight in an incomprehensible war.

The message of that movie was about a conspiracy much larger than some hidden weapon, and one with much more devastating effect.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

The best bit was the questioning about why they went to the chicken shack after the murder, dismemberment and immolation.

"Because we were hungry."

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

we should probably have spoilered this!

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Ah: nobody's going to watch it anyway.

 

[Orang Utan]

Targets - Peter Bogdanovich's debut - an excellent thriller with Boris Karloff essentially playing himself as an aging horror star getting caught up in a sniper's murder spree

 

[chazegee]

Evil Dead 2
Hilariously inventive.

 

[rollinder]

just watched the first episode of Bottom
got the boxset for my birthday & I'd forgotton how great it was

 

[Part 2]

Buffalo 66.

Not seen this recommended before, great film. Great characters, funny, nicely shot, good story, not too long and a heartwarming ending.

Loved it.

 

[chazegee]

The Believer.
Just your typical story about a Jewish Nazi.
Pretty good.

30 Days of Night - Enjoyed it but, pretty predictable

 

[El Jefe]

Monsters Inc. Was quite sweet

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Monsters Inc. Was quite sweet

It's one of my faves in this pixar type genre. Quite intelligent.

 

[sojourner]

Book of Shadows - Blair Witch 2

Bought off the telly, on a group vote. It was alright actually, better than I expected

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

4.5 of Peep Show. I can't believe they barbecued the dog
