Wathced 'The Machinist' with Christian Bale - a cracking psycological thriller. did that just happen? or did he just think it happened? kept us guessing right to the end.
 
Too drunk and tired to watch last night - but started to watch One for the Road this morning, but only managed 1/2 hour before interrupted by little un -was funny up til then tho - anyone else seen? :)

Watched that the other week. Great fun.


Watched Brotherhood last night and Kikujiro Saturday.
 
City of Men, the spin-off TV series from City of God. It's good, if lacking the adrenaline rush of the film, which to be fair couldn't really be sustained epsidodic form.
 
Tale of two sisters. Not nearly as good or creepy as I remember it.

Also watched XXX on 5 for the first time. What the fuck was that? Can't believe this shit gets made. Like some Hollywood bond, no wait bond has gone all Hollywood already. Did you know Roald Dahl wrote the screenplay to you only live twice (and chitty chitty bang bang).

And you thought he just had a fat arse daughter. (who isn't anymore)

I watched that. I didn't get it though :oops: Maybe if I watched it when I was wide awake it'll make a difference.

Wasn't at all scary was it?

Yeah man that was amazing! "Anarchy 99" "Bring in the bitches" :D Definitely the best portrayal of anarchism since Robert Carlyle wanted to blow up Turkey in The World is not Enough. And that coat! WTF?? When he took it off he could hardly carry it!

Saw the Fast and the Furious last week too, is it some kinda Vin Diesel season? He's so shite it's unbelievable. And he's got a baby's head on a man's body.

Is Tale of Two Sisters the kind of film it sounds like it is?

Couple of 'moments' but not really no. Great cinematography though, beautifully filmed!
 
watched john carpenter's 'the thing' on saturday (when jittug was tripping his nuts off on san pedro cactus :D), then yesterday vegged out to 'chopper' (great movie, but i forgot how violent it is :eek: ) - eric bana is mighty fine. oh, and 'the producers' :cool:

Is this the kind of chava assed films we have to look forward to. Disco meat, munce heads and spaz rock?
His name can't really be Vin Diesel can it. Mind you Mamma Suplex called me Atomic, how lame is that?

possibly not, it's not an incest flick, it is very odd though.

this weekend i've been watching team america [again!] and finding neverland for the first time, good stuff, johnny depp, kate winslet and radha mitchel in one film? jackpot!
 
Look At Me (Comme Une Image)

A slightly portly young woman battles with self-esteem and her overbearing father, a famous novelist and publisher. She suspects that people only show an interest in her because they want to get to know her father. Music provides her with some solace and she develops a close relationship with her singing teacher, unaware that she has a hidden agenda. A chance encounter with a stranger leads to the possibility of an intimate relationship with someone on her own terms, provided she can break free from the prison of her own negative thoughts.

One of those curious foreign films in which nothing happens yet quite a lot is going on, but ultimately bleak and unfulfilling.
 
million dollar baby...

must be the only film i've ever watched when i didnt know what was going to happen in the end.

left me and wifey shocked and stunned
:eek:

good film though
 
Sympathy for mr Vengeance.

Wonderful and not as horrible as everyone said. It's actualy a comedy, dosen't anyone see that?

Yep, watched that the other week as well. Do you know when Sympathy for Lady Vengeance comes out?


*goes to check Amazon*


PS: Love the cover on Sympathy for Mr Vengeance
 
The Machinist. Luckily not *as* scary as I thought it was going to be. Didn't give me nightmares but still made me cover my eyes/cuddle my viewing partner quite a few times. IMO the first half was really good: quite psychologically gripping. It gives the impression that there is a big twist in the tale which turns out to be a little disappointing.
