khunsanuk Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Hi, Just watched "Largo Winch 2 - The Burma Conspiracy" Wonder if this was based on the comic of the same name. Will keep an eye out for this as I rather like the comics. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it's base on the french comic. First watch part one, if I remember right, it's close the original plot(s). http://goo.gl/0k6nD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Munchmaster Posted July 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 The Angels Share Saw it last night in possibly the best cinema in the world! Ken Loach directed so was bound to be pretty good and it was indeed excellent, although some may need subtitles! The fact that it is set in Scotland also helps. "The Angels' Share is a Scottish comedy-drama film directed by Ken Loach, starring Paul Brannigan, John Henshaw, William Ruane, Gary Maitland, Jasmin Riggins, and Siobhan Reilly. It tells the story of a young father who narrowly avoids a prison sentence. He is determined to turn over a new leaf and when he and his friends from the same community payback group visit a whisky distillery, a route to a new life becomes apparent."

Hugh_Hoy Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Just got back from watching “Savages†in a local theater. Was released last week. Best known names in the flick were Bencio del Toro, Salma Haydek, and John Travolta. A little over 2 hours of mayhem and madness. The “Savages†are the members of a Mexican pot cartel, eager to move in on a couple of local Southern California dudes who grow some “primo†stuff and have cut into the Cartel’s biz. Haydek is the head of the Baja cartel and Travolta is a “wrong†DEA agent who has provided the local guys with protection (naturally, for a price). Del Toro is a henchman for Haydek. He is a genuine sociopathic badass. He’s also a turncoat, deciding to give his loyalty to another cartel and ditching Salma. (Who could do such a thing?) Anyway, dual kidnappings, killings, double-crosses, and blood, gun-fire, shootouts make this an entertaining flick for those who like this kind of shit. Don’t leave until the credits roll. A bit of a surprise ending. BTW, for those who fell in love with Salma in her younger years, this one is gonna make you cry. GAWD, she looks "old" now. But still do-able for sure.

HH I just read the original story "Savages" by Don Winslow. IMHO it is by far not his best book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
