TT3D Closer to the Edge

In essence a documentary about the tt motorbike road race they do in the isle of man.

Gutted I didn't see this in 3d... Really great to watch if you're into bikes and racing. Guy Martin is utterly hilarious and it's a good insight into the love and drive for the race.

Great filming too

I'd give it a 9/10 for a documentary film....

Not sure what non bikey people would think, I think it's funny and interesting enough to entertain but at sme time I think hmmm if some one told me to watch a documentary on the grand national I'd be like "hmmm yeh sounds great ... *rollyeyes*"

Random... I just this minute finished watching the exact same film (TT3D Closer to the Edge) and came here to post about it!

9/10 from me too. That Guy Martin, what a card, got to love him. Great documentary, one problem is now I want to go and see the TT in person. Add that to the bucket list along with seeing an F1 GP at one of of my favourite tracks.

A shame as I think the story line had potential but it just didn't deliver.

2/10
Surprised to hear you say that.
I thought it was a lot better than 2/10.

Very weird as I watched this yesterday as well

Great action from the on board cameras and the whole film really shows just how mad some of the bike racers are. 9/10

Maybe I was just expecting more from it. It just seemed to be very slow and I just wanted to get to the end to fill in a few pieces but other than that I was bored by it.

Wall-e

Awww what an incredibly cute film! 8/10

Machete

Starring
  • Danny Trejo
  • Robert De Niro
  • Jessica Alba
  • Steven Seagal
B movie style film

6/10 It's daft, the plot's incredibly thin and it's mainly style over substance but it's entertaining enough to watch if you can switch your brain off to just enjoy the over the top violence and silliness.

Harry Brown.

Nice fun film. Not. 6/10

Season of the Witch

What can I say. - points immediately for Nicholas Cage's 'acting'. It was ok, passed an hour or so, but nothing special. 5/10
