    The Last Waltz- Music documentary directed by Martin Scorsese.

    Class, would recommend it to anyone who likes their music.

    King of Comedy. Strange, but I found it funny.

    Watched F&F: Tokyo Drift last night on ITV.

    That bird with the Austrailian accent is unreal!

    Two classics. The king of Comedy is a really awkward watch but it's one of Scorsese's best in my opinion, really underrated. Another Scorsese film from the 80's, After Hours, is another strange but darkly funny film- well worth a watch.

    Ye, I was somewhere between being irritated by/feeling sorry for Rupert while watching it :56:
    Some parts of it nearly had me in tears though, great film.

    I'm yet to watch a Scorsese film and not enjoy it, so ill definitely give After Hours a watch. Still to watch New York, New York and Boxcar Bertha out of a 5 DVD Scorsese boxset I got.

    Went to see Filth. Was good, but the book was better.

    Gravity. Visually beautiful. But dont go in expecting a twisting plot. It's more a character driven film about resiliance and personal growth. It's ideal for 3D. Good few tense moments in it.

    Enjoyed it but I went in knowning what to expect having read the synopsis. Don't expect Apollo 13.

    Silver Linings Playbook. Solid film. Enjoyed it. Different role for Bradley Cooper and he played it well. Jennifer Lawrence deserved her Oscar. De Niro was great. Some lovely directing.

    Gravity. Stunning, suspensful as *. Best use of 3D i've also ever seen in a film, highly recommended.

    I'm not picky.
    Resident Evil & Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Both good watches.

    Will be watching the next 3 in the next few days so we'll see how they fair.

    Got to be better than that pile of * Chronicles of Riddick though, surely :smiley-laughing002:

    Source Code. One of the best films I've seen in a while. Incredible plot. Bit emotional. :smiley-laughing002:
