What films you watched recently?

Inception -10/10

Brilliant, loved the ending and how much it really keeps you thinking for two and a half hours, it flew by.

Christopher Nolan can do no wrong, him and Pixar.

Already made 83rd on imdb's top 250 all time films.

That Sharlto Copley fella steals it, hope he is Norton's replacement as Banner in The Avengers?

Yeah I loved it too. Thought it was miles better than TV series, mind you I never really liked the tv series.

I thought Mark Ruffalo was gonna be new Hulk.?

I still have faint hope Norton/Marvel will see sense

Avatar - glorious looking film, gutted I didn't see it in 3D, the story was a bit lame like, but for conjuring up such an amazing fantasy world I'll give it a generous 9/10

Benjamin Button - Very suprised to say that I really enjoyed this, it had the potential to be a barrel of shite but it was done really well 8/10

Gommorah - Italian film about the mafia in modern Naples, had the potential to be brilliant and was shot beautifully, unfortunately the story was really weak and none of the different strands pulled together very well so a 6/10 just because it looked nice

Toy Story 3(D) Rad out of 10.

Pixar knocks it out of the park again, 3D was good too, very subtle.

Watched Platoon again the other night. Great film - 8/10

Anyone had a look at Unthinkable yet? Brilliant flick

Yeah I rated it quite highly a few posts back.
I'd say 9/10 for Platoon.

Inception 8/10
I think my expectations were too high for this. I thought the story, script and concept was awesome and the acting was really good, but, the structure sort of felt like one of those heist movies. It had that same feel as something like Oceans 11, you know? Get a team together with different experts etc then slowly reveal the plot/heist as the film progresses so we dont know what is coming until the end.
I think this could have been Di Caprios film but there were too many other biggish names involved too so it felt more like an ensemble. I was expecting a similar wow like the time you first saw Matrix etc but I didnt get that.
Definately worth seeing though.

Girl with the Dragon Tattoo 8/10

Quite fancy Inception

Nah. Im going with 9/10, still thinking about it!

X-Men Origins: Wolverine
I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul

The Crazies 6/10

Same old formula, extremely average, bit too long as well.

Watched The Battle Of Britain the other night..... classic! 10/10

Stunning aerial photography and the whole thing seemed to capture the mood of the exceptionally desparate situation we were in, while at the same time maintaining a kind of realistic 'normality'.

A British film too..... thank fuck - if Hollywood had made it, the incompetent and dastardly English would have totally fluffed it by taking tea and cucumber sandwiches along with a nice game of croquet, while the Americans were heroically engaged in a 'to-the-death' struggle with both the Luftwaffe and giant ants from Venus, who would only be defeated when the President of the United States had personally flown into outer space in a rocket propelled Cadillac and sneezed all over the ants mother ship, which would then (as calculated by boffins from NASA) fall to earth and destroy Germany, thus ending the war and saving the world from certain destruction.

That sounds like a good film

Agree, Great aerial battle scenes with hundereds of planes and not one bit of CGI

Also a great cast and even greater score.

Wouldn't say it was totally a British film. It was produced by Harry Saltzman (same guy who co produced early Bond) a Canadian funded by a American company and directed by Guy Hamilton a frenchy. A fuck it heres a clip for the clueless.
