[Spoiler Alert] Film reviews and ratings

Orderd the lord of the rings box set just waiting for it this week . Trying to bulk up my dvd collection

 

Gravity.. it's ok for a one time watch.

 

Thought it was boring as * tbh.

 

Story wasn't up too much at all, few cringey moments too (wolf howling) but the visuals were brilliant. Could have been doing with more of Sandra Bullock floating about in her wee panties though.

 

The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug

* * hot. Massive step up from the first movie. Still doesnt live up to LOTR but imo Peter Jackson gives it a great shot, and puts the trilogy back on track.

Alot of people unhappy at how it differs from the book, which it does, but most if not all of the differences I was happy to welcome. The pace of the movie is FAR better and the action is phenomenal.

Still believe it should have been done in two films though, but the more middle earth I get to see on the big screen the better. Looking forward to next year a * of a lot.

Oh and Smaug is a * badass.

 

Did you watch in 3D at the cinema? A went and seen it in 3D and thought it was outstanding.

 

Nah mate, downloaded a hd copy. 5 mins in and i wished i had went to the pics to see it.

 

A can see why you wouldn't enjoy it as much as me then. Am honestly thinking of going back to see it again the 3D was that good:smiley-laughing002:

 

Aye it looked brilliant, story wise though i thought it wasn't up to much.

 

Carlito's Way

Brilliant watch as always. Still hate that * of an ending though :smiley-laughing002:! 8/10

 

2 Guns. Enjoyed it. Two of my favourite actors in it. I think Wahlberg is class in most films and big Denzel is just a legend

 

Watched "The Hurricane" last night again, one of the best films you'll ever see - Washington is outstanding.

Watched "Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters" - thought it was great. Few funny moments, like the fact he has diabetes from the witch making him eat too many sweeties when he was a kid :smiley-laughing002::smiley-laughing002:

And as usual, Gemma Arterton is smoking

 

Nebraska is a great film.

Prince of Persia is pretty good if you're looking for another Gemma Arterton fix!

 

Just seen the second hobbit in the cinema, * amazing!

Already can't wait till next christmas for the showdown.:icon_mrgreen:

 

Love it.

Excellent film.

 

Just watched Don Jon, so right now I have "Good Vibrations" stuck in my head... what a tune :smiley-laughing002:

Anyway I think Julianne Moore saved this movie. She performed well at the end when the movie actually gave some meaningful points. She seemed more "easy going" than the other two, she had a major role which could have been seen as clichéd if not done so well by her. Gordon-Levitt and Johansson (who is forever uninteresting) could have been replaced pretty easily by other actors.

Give Gordon-Levitt credit for his writing here. He sets up this "game" with strict rules in which he lives and slowly unravels it to give a good message at the end.

All the scenes with Jon's family reminded me of Robert De Niro in Silver Linings Playbook. That's not to say those scenes were bad, they had a meaning but they seemed to be modelled on that and kind of unoriginal.

 

V/H/S 2. What a load of *. The first one was pretty decent, but the second was just pure garbage.

 

The lord of the rings : the fellowship of the ring , its the second time i have watched this first time a never realy paid attention so iv got the box set there to watch
