What was the last movie you saw?

V for Vendetta - Cant compare it to the comics as its at least 15 years since I read them last but it was better than I was expecting, the ending was a bit preachy though.

Children of Men - I thought it worked as a look at a society in meltdown and some of the action sequences were pretty good. Apart from that there wasnt a lot to it, very weak storyline I thought. Never really understood how Clive Owen keeps getting all these leading roles.

Now that's something I didn't know - the film was based on comics.

Brilliant film, I thought. I especially loved the fight scene in the Underground station. Some amazing filming there.

I own the comic, the movie was pretty good movie version except the lame preachy ending. Much darker in the comic.


Clive Owens i cant stand either. Specially how he ruined Sin City for me....


I only liked him in one movie, that was one he played a croupier that tries to write a book. He was great in that. Always thought he should have done dark crime or spy stuff cause it the style suit him.
 
I have Sin City to watch when I get around to it, I didnt actually know Clive Owen was in it. He was pretty dreadful in King Arthur too, no screen presence whatsoever. I still liked the film though.
 
O brother where art thou?

Good stuff, pretty funny, got George Clooney and all. And while I don't like country music, the "soggy bottom boys" are pretty good..

Also, the Bourne Supremacy. It's nothing like the book. At all. But it's still a good movie, few surprises, good car chase also.
 
I watched Return Of The King EE today as I was home sick with nothing better to do then cough.
 
Saw Batman Forever and Batman and Robin the other night, and it made me realize how much I prefer the most recent version.
 
The Returner starring Takeshi Kaneshiro, Ann Suzuki, Kirin Kiki, Goro Kishitani.

The movie is set in the future and humans are fighting an alien army. The female protagonist Milly (Suzuki) travels back in time in an attempt to alter the course of history and save mankind.

She pretty much arrives in the middle of a gang war between Miyamoto (Kaneshiro), a gunman, and Mizoguchi (Kishitani), Japan's crime lord.

She manages to convince Miyamoto to help her fight the aliens after she gets it through to him that she is very real and from the future.

The action sequences are awesome. I love the scene where a huge Boeing transforms into an alien. Lots of CGI. Lots of wire-work. Think Matrix only with a better story line.

These people went on to do Casshern, which is also an awesome movie.
 
Just finished watching Pan's Labyrinth. I've never seen this movie before. I really enjoyed it. I didn't know much about it so I had no preconcieved ideas. It was really very good.
 
Yes Nesa its a bit of an ask, but I am sure he is up to it. I didn't know if I would enjoy it or not but it was very captivating, sort of sad to though.
 
Saw the Simpsons movie last week and whilst I found it slow and meandering in places I've been giggling about spider pig ever since.
 
Brick.

Its about a High school loner who infiltrates a drugs ring to find out the truth about his ex girlfriends death. Script was apparently inspired by old 40's film noir and it shows :) The heroes a great character.

And its got that cute girl out of Heroes in it.
