What DVD / Video did you watch last night ?

[Random One]

L.A Story

 

[red rose]

Secretary - very good film. At first I didnt think it was anything special but I keep catching myself thinking about it subconciously today

 

[mwgdrwg]

(Secretary is a great film. One scoop of mash and two peas!)

I watched Return of the King this weekend and it was thoroughly enjoyable. Blockbuster effects made it an ideal Saturday night film.

Also watched a couple of episodes of Macross Plus. It's an anime which is a bit like Top Gun with robots and virtual pop stars. Pretty good stuff.

 

[hektik]

buffalo soldiers.

 

[jeff_leigh]

Belleville Rendez-Vous

 

[bmd]

The Butterfly Effect. One for Donnie Darko fans.

 

[bmd]

City Of God. Probably me but it bored the tits right off me. They're lying on the floor right now looking at me with a reproachful look on them.

 

[Spud u like]

Scary movie 3 - Watchable,but not exactly hilarious!

A mighty wind - Not as good as Spinal Tap or Best in show but funny,with some catchy tunes!

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

Azumanga daioh

it's good

nowt happens but there is entertainment

 

[Juice Terry]

Sopranos, season 2, episodes 5-7.

Furio kneecaps the pimp at the tanning salon.
Tony squaring up to Richie Aprillia because he's fucking his sister.
Meadow, ah the lovely Meadow.....

 

[Poi E]

The Godfather. 'Nuff said.

 

[girasol]

Watched Little Big Man last night which is one of my favorite movies... Bought it this week as it's just been released on DVD. Dustin Hoffman is very good in it, especially on the funny bits.

 

[N2Oboy]

Enter the Dragon.
I think I might have to go out and buy the soundtrack now.

 

[Juice Terry]

Sopranos Series 2 episodes 8-10

Christopher, post whacking, goes overboard on the morphine self medication in icu and thinks he has gone to hell.

Paulie Walnuts: "Has someone told these guys that this kid likes his chemistry set a bit too much."

 

[Poi E]

Watched "Ned Kelly" and "Dark Water" (from Hideo Nakata, dir. of Jap "ring"). Both pretty poor. "Ned Kelly" showed some promise but petered out with stilted screenplay and a bombastic script. Heath Ledger and Orlando Bloom OK though. "Dark Water" was great but the mushy ending blew it. Sorry, but horror shouldn't have a sentimental ending.

Identity.

Decent enough film, with a twist that I didn't spot coming.

Saw it at the cinema.

Thought it was shite, personally.

Great shame to see Liotta (sp?) reduced to formulaic crap.

 

[SubZeroCat]

"Dirty Whores Wanting More"

Its an.......educational film.....

I agree that it was quite formulaic, but that's not always a bad thing. I found it entertaining. There were a couple of moments that made me jump. The performances were all fairly good, and the twists at the end left me feeling satisfied!

And Ray Liotta has been in far worse films!

Tragic, isn't it?

 

[ChrisFilter]

watched Eurotrip (cheap frat boy comedy from the makers of old school and roadtrip, out in cinemas this weekend, got the dvd screnner from bittorrent) - if you take it for what it is, it's actually quite funny.. although the bit in england is shit.. all you see is vinnie jones' band of man u fan hooligans.. not funny.

and watched starsky and hutch today.. disappointing, but still good.. snoop is wicked.

 

[monkeygirl]

just saw Mean girls at the cinema. was ok for a teen chick flick but i would have done better just going to the pub

 

[bmd]

The Chronicles Of Riddick. Follow on from Pitch Black
The Chronicles Of Riddick - Dark Fury. Animated short from one of the Animatrix animation teams.

 

[bingobowden]

Death To Smoochy.

 

[kaya]

Mulholland Drive... I don't understand what was going on.... but was enjoyable, none the less.

 

[Juice Terry]

Agitator - complicated, yakuza tricks and treachery. lots of gruff japanese voices issueing threats. nice tattoos. Fecking brilliant

 

[DarthSydodyas]

Started to watch The Day After Tommorow. About half an hour into it and it looks ok. Seems to have a similar build-up to all those other hollywood disaster movies, so I am expecting a mundane 2nd half.

It was neither DVD nor video, but I've just watched Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Excellent performance from David Thewlis (possibly because he's mainly acting with lil kids) and when Gary Oldman appeared, he actually looked much more like Sirius than the posters have suggested. I wonder what Ian Brown was stirring in the Leaky Cauldron...

All in all it was very good and much darker than the others, but if you're a fan of the books I'd advise leaving your knowledge of the storyline elsewhere when you see it. It works, fwiw, but there are huge differences in the storyline.

Best one yet, though. Probably. I dunno.

 

[Solitarian]

I finally sat down for an uninterrupted viewing of the much-awaited City Of God.

I am still in shock

It is unbelievable. Fecking perfect IMO. I am telling everyone I come into contact with to watch it. And if they give me that "I don't like subtitles" trash, I'm going to definitely go 'Lil Ze on them a bit.

An amazing film in every way.

 

[stereotypical]

Watched that Van Helsing, didnt rate it really. Good special effects and loadsa manga style action, plot was shite.

Kate Beckinsale though
