I don't understand either. My mate told me it was a load of pap but I've seen it twice now and I thought it was quite a good film. Nice little twist on the whole superhero thing I think.

As for Iron Man, that films rocks too

I don't know if it's the same as the cinema trailer, but it really does look like it will be a great movie.


Reviews:-

Vacancy

"A young married couple becomes stranded at an isolated motel and finds hidden video cameras in their room. They realize that unless they escape, they'll be the next victims of a snuff film."

Really surprised by this one tbh.
No budget to speak of, but worth watching IMHO.
It does what it should do, makes you jump in a couple of places, makes you actually give a crap about the characters that are in peril while making you want the "bad guys" to be on the receiving end of some justice.
The acting wasn't a let down, nor was the storyline and it's definitely been one of the better horror/shocker movies I've seen recently.

Enter The Dragon

Starring
  • Bruce Lee
  • John Saxon
  • Kien Shih
  • Ahna Capri
Legendary martial arts film

9/10 There's not too much to say, it is almost certainly the best martial arts film ever made and deserves all the plaudits it has received. It looks a little dated now and there's no wire work so it may be less visually impressive than some more recent martial arts epics but the fighting is simply brilliant.

I'm watching In Bruges as I type this and never have I laughed so much at the word 'poof' as when it's used to the chap with the eye patch

/edit - Right, it's finished. What an excellent film, I laughed out loud many times during this black comedy. Great story even though I saw the ending coming a mile off but thoroughly enjoyable nevertheless.

You loves it. Did he repeatedly hit you on the head as he was saying the words? I hope so otherwise he missed an opportunity.

In Bruges is a great film as I think I've mentioned earlier on in this thread, very black comedy but so very accomplished,

Just watched The Incredibles for the first time.
Probably the first Pixar-esque movie I've seen where it was as close to being a conventional movie as it's possible to be. If you squint you could even convince yourself it was all shot in the conventional way using real actors+sets.

Score?

Think of how you scored "Toy Story" then subject either zero, or half a point if you're picky.

Great movie.
