Hugh_Hoy Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Also saw 'Edge of Darkness' with Mel Gibson. Didn't like. Boring. He needs to quit acting and go back to directing 'Apocalypto' kinda shit. That, was good. YMMV. I found "Edge" boring also. Plot felt contrived. Gibson's acting was okay, but he didn't have a lot to work with. He kind of came off as a Dirty Harry Light. And yes, "Apocalypto" was very good.

The_Munchmaster Posted February 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Comfort and Joy (1984). Directed by Bll Forsyth. Scottish DJ Alan Bird, looking for something meaningful in life, stumbles across a vendetta between rival ice-cream families and sets out to settle the dispute himself. Pleasant wee film although quite dated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygye Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 I saw the trailers for "Edge of Darkness" and I couldn't stop laughing! Gibson's Boston accent was so horrible it became unintentionally funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Up In The Air George Clooney Clooney makes is watchable, but barely. Chick flick. Good flick, you don't hab too think too mutt. ** 1/2 (being generous) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Old Dogs ** 1/2 Robin Williams and John Revolting Chick flick but the two actors barely save it. Another don't think too mutt" flick. Pretty much a time waster, but TIT, so why not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Munchmaster Posted February 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Black Hawk Down. Superb film, but with RS at the helm you wouldn't expect anything less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave32 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 So most of the time I'm not into the 'horror' genre as the movies aren't that scary, and I find slasher films boring after 20 minutes or so. Without a doubt the best and most innovative horror films of the past decade came out of Asia, not Hollywood, IMHO. This weekend I had to be at home on call and had nowhere to go -- felt like watching a horror flick for a change. Hell, even a slasher film. So, I get Borderland and Wolf Creek to watch... thinking I'll probably turn them off halfway though due to disinterest. Oh no. They scared me. I haven't been scared by a film in a long time... and they both SCARED me. Maybe it was the left/right combo, but I couldn't sleep on Friday night. Ended up watching 'the Great Escape' at 1am just to get my mind on something else. Good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
