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

[ViolentPanda]

ace movie, totally underrated

Yes indeedy!

Brion James' cackling still cracks me up, too!

 

[Part 2]

I just watched Hot Rod. Napoleon Dynamite type nerd film about a shit stuntman, starring Ian Mc Shane and Cissy Spacek.

Bloody daft!

 

[CUMBRIANDRAGON]

Peaceful warrior by dan milliband excellent film

 

[El Jefe]

In Bruges.

What a marvellous fucking film

"... two manky whores and a racist dwarf"

 

[Orang Utan]

I thought it was merely OK and certainly not worthy of the hype.

 

[El Jefe]

I found it very funny, quite exciting and often quite moving.

 

[Knut]

Into the Wild

(well just a while ago, dunno if im or ...but im definitely touched ....)

 

[Scarlette]

Pathology. It was bobbins.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Part of 3000 Miles To Graceland. An American values outlaw movie.

Problem is, after the first interesting desert part, the filming moves to Vancouver, pretty close to my house in parts. Also Main Street.

Vancouver isn't a good standin for Boise Idaho.

 

[foo]

i *heart* Huckabees. saw it at the pics but glad i watched it again. i needed a bit of existentialist angst on a sodden drunken Sunday evening...

 

[El Jefe]

The Departed. Seemed a bit Scorsese by numbers - the soundtrack, the camerawork, everything - and it just didn't work as well as the original. Not terrible, but not really worth 2 1/2 hours

 

[Detroit City]

I watched Easy Money with Rodney Dangerfield, Joe Pesci and Jennifer Jason Leigh

 

[idioteque]

Juno- when I first saw trailers for it I thought it would be shit, but I actually really liked it. Good film.

 

[cybershot]

Be Kind Rewind, unlike Juno, trailers for this looked funny. It was anything but, utter shit.

 

[Pie 1]

Stumbled across a good torrent of Rumblefish the other day.
Haven't seen it since about 1990, but loved it then - looking pretty dated now, but not as bad as you'd think.
It's also a great roll call of now established talent, when they were all fresh faced.

Also Juno, which I unexpectedly enjoyed thougherly as well.

 

[Badgers]

The Dark Knight finally...

Good, really good

 

[sojourner]

Okay

Another funny little quirky and subtle Danish film, starring Paprika Steen, who I am starting to develop a bit of a 'pash' on

 

[corporate whore]

Torn Curtain - Hitchcock directs a dream pairing of Paul Newman and Julie Andrews .

Bit of a flop on release as it's no North By Northwest but then, hey, what is? Solid Cold War stuff.

 

[Fictionist]

Currently 'Young Soul Rebels'.

Great music but terrible acting!

 

[Thimble Queen]

The Cottage... was scary and funny but not the best film....

 

[Part 2]

Charlie Wilsons War.

Loved it, managed to forget I was watching Tom Hanks and Philip Seymour Hoffman was great as usual.

 

[Chairman Meow]

Death Race, turned it off half way through cos its utter shit.

 

[corporate whore]

Birth of a Nation.

Holy crap. Quite an achievement and all - what with it being made in 1915 - but utterly, utterly repellent.

 

[joustmaster]

i watched "wargames 2: the dead code" a modern sequel to the 80s film. my god it was bad. i expected it to be pretty bad, but a lot of it didnt even make sense.

 

[chazegee]

Shivers - Cronenberg.

Umm, bit slow, some quite good Zombie sex at the end.

 

[Biddlybee]

Kung Fu Panda

 

[Orang Utan]

Idiocracy - great idea, poorly executed, cheap as chips but very funny in places
Stranger Than Fiction - not so good, crap idea, well executed, but not very engaging. Will Farrell was too restrained and he didn't run round naked shouting even once.

 

[bmd]

Okay

Is that the one with Marjoram Davis?

I watched Hellboy again.

 

[sojourner]

Is that the one with Marjoram Davis?

I watched Hellboy again.

not according to the credits

marjoram davis dunt sound very Danish anyway though, does it?

paprika steen:

she gets loads of roles in Danish films as the wronged middle-aged wife, with an independent character , always smoking a fag, and she's really rather gorgeous, but better when she's tossing her head round being a narky bastard

 

[Orang Utan]

She looks a bit like Ricky Gervais
