:shocked:

Is that the one with the ball signed by babe ruth, or something like that?

[King Gizzard]

Yep :) and the massive dog in the garden, lol

[setanta]

Nah I loved it. Plenty of movies are dumb as a box of rocks and I could sit here pointint out every technical inconsistency but really it's job was to be entertaining and I was entertained.

It's not as if it's Schindlers List. That said I probably won't watch it again.

Think it was way too far fetched but yes, entertaining I suppose. My main problem with it was the two leads, who I can't handle at all. Never been a fan of Foxx - up his own hole - and Butler has no screen presence or versatility.

Sod all versatility, I agree, but I think he has screen presence when confined to certain roles.

Foxx is loged straight up his own arse though. Has been for years. Still, I had no complaints about him in the movie.

Still, at least we had another brilliantly generic Colm Meaney role to enjoy. I just cant take him seriously prowling around corners with a gun.

[setanta]

The Live Election Debates. Pretty good ensemble piece, although one of the three was completely out of his depth, while another looked like a bit part player galliantly trying to do his best with a role that was far too big for him, and as for the other -pompous little boy who can't see the trees for his ar£e.

[setanta]

Rob Roy. Such a great flick. Don't know how many times I've watched it at this stage.

[arsenalforever]

The Beatles Hard Days night

you don't get music films like this anymore

[NettoSuperstar!]

Disturbia on telly t'other day, wunt bad if a little cheesy

[Niamh.]

Harry Potter and the half blood prince, I'd seen it already but it was very good

[Niamh.]

WHAT????????????? I see no one else when he's on screen!

[setanta]

Niamh, you might fancy the hole off him, but that doesn't make him a good actor. Did you see him in P.S I love you? That was shocking stuff. I had to switch the thing off.

[GypsyGoth]

Nightmare On Elm Street :love:

[IheartBB]

Niamh, you might fancy the hole off him, but that doesn't make him a good actor. Did you see him in P.S I love you? That was shocking stuff. I had to switch the thing off.

I think he's only been good twice in his career; the voice over for How To Train Your Dragon and the "this is Sparta!!" part in 300. P.S I love You was bad beyond belief.

[Niamh.]

Niamh, you might fancy the hole off him, but that doesn't make him a good actor. Did you see him in P.S I love you? That was shocking stuff. I had to switch the thing off.

yes I did but there wasn't much he could do with that role. He was great in 300, I like when he roars...............................

Benjamin Button. :love:

[GypsyGoth]

But I'm A Cheerleader, it was fun.

[Sebastian Tallneed]

I literally finished watching Transformers 2 a short while ago whilst doing some revision.

Probably not many peoples cup of tea by i personally love it..just my type of film.

[Beastie]

My Super Ex Girlfriend.

It was quite good. lol :)

[MeMyselfAndI]

Slither
on Film 4 with friends. it was discusting

[Beastie]

Slither

Lol that was on after My Super Ex Girlfriend. I might have seen Slither before or at the pictures but can't remember now :S

[Braden]

I've watched Slither before, when the fat women exploded I almost puked.

[Shaun]

The Nanny Diaries.

So many good actors, so little interest.

[Princess]

^The Nanny Diaries is a bit boring

Happy Go Lucky

T'was alright

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Hot tube time machine

Was okay, had a few good lines in it, but apart from that nothing special.

[Niamh.]

It looks really crap from the trailers

[Scarlett.]

Star Trek XI (Or is it counted as the first? xD)
Silent Hill

[DrunkerThanMoses]

It looks really crap from the trailers

It did had some funny moments, but not a laugh out film. Half the characters were annoying. Like I said it was okay, but nothing special. Dont blame me I wnated to see Nightmare on elm street lol

[Beastie]

Trapped. Was really good!

[Niamh.]

Now that looks good, have to get to see that one!

[setanta]

A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010). Another stale and unimaginative horror remake from a production company who've built a solid reputation for themselves as a team of professionals committed to churning out hallow, disposable remakes of older classics, with absolutely none of the style of the originals. This was mind blowingly awful, and one has to feel sorry for Jackie Earle Haley who deserved far much more than this tired old piece of rubbish.

[Ramsay]

The Beatles Hard Days night

you don't get music films like this anymore

true

[Princess]

Rachel Getting Married

It was good,I love anything Anne Hathaway does.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Jaws 3, best comedy Ive seen in a while.

[setanta]

Shadowlands. I've always loved this intimately crafted little film which explores the life altering relationship that C.S Lewis embarks upon (a never better Anthony Hopkins) with an American lady, a relationship that changes the very fabric of his existence. It's just such a wonderful film, and very affecting.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Boys dont cry, a very intresting and moving film. The acting was great, I can see why swank won an oscar for it. Cant believe its based on a true story, which makes it more moving.

[Shaun]

Reservoir Dogs.

Now I just don't know which QT movie is my favourite.

[Shaun]

Waltz With Bashir. Rather good stuff.

[Niamh.]

Levity with Billy Bob Thornton and Morgan Freeman, it was good, a bit bleak but good

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Levity with Billy Bob Thornton and Morgan Freeman, it was good, a bit bleak but good

Oh I was going to watch that next week!

[DrunkerThanMoses]

King Kong 1933, was okay, a tad boring for my liking, but the special effects was good for that time.

[Niamh.]

Oh I was going to watch that next week!

It was on ITV2 last night, it's good, not brilliant but good

[DrunkerThanMoses]

It was on ITV2 last night, it's good, not brilliant but good

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Yep, but they always have the same films on.

[Niamh.]

Yep, but they always have the same films on.

Do they? I don't get to watch them much so they're all new to me! There was one on the other night with Demi Moore, Half Light it was called, it looked good but it started too late

[Shaun]

Blow.

I don't know where to put it. Like, it seems to be sympathising with a drug dealer...it's complicated. Good acting, soundtrack, drama, etc. But the message confuses me. Which is a good thing I guess?

The message is if you're a sap, you're gonna get screwed, as he did all the way though the film.

[InOne]

4 Lions. Was quite good. Funny muslims.

[Jessica.]

The Human Centipede :bawling:

[Tom4784]

Tales of Earthsea, the weakest Ghibli film by a mile but it was still okay I guess apart from a very flawed plot.

[Beastie]

Loser.

Lol was a good film.. eventhough it has quite a simple narrative to it. Had a good soundtrack though. I was like yay!! when Scarbrough Fair by Simon and Garfunkel came on :D

[ButterflyGirl]

The Crazies, wasn't too bad ,not sure if I would watch it again though.

[Angus]

Watched Gran Torino last night after having it recommended to me by several people. Wow what a thought provoking film, without being too worthy, and Clint Eastwood is fantastic. Terrific ending.

[MrGaryy]

The Last Song

meh it was alright. Miley wasn't up to much in it but it's a nice, if unoriginal story.

[GypsyGoth]

Robin Hood, I was disappointed.

[Lewis.]

A film with Kevin Bacon in it -

Stir of Echo's.. Better than Sixth sense if I say so myself - 9/10.

[setanta]

I watched The Firm(1993) just for the craic again, since I'm a fan of crime and legal novels. Yeah, I enjoyed it even though I'm sure it might be a little drawn out for some.

[Glenn.]

The Grudge 3. Utter bow-lax

Kill Bill (Vol 1)

[Tom4784]

I haven't even seen the Grudge 1, nevermind 3. Are they all rubbish?

The Japanese original was a confusing mess, the remake actually made a bit of sense but was only so so and the sequel's downright awful.

It's an interesting idea but terrible execution.

Yeah, I steered clear of the original too, although I was impressed with how Hollywood tried their hand at the Ring. it wasn't terrible!

I liked the Ring. The sequels were'nt that bad either I suppose.

[James]

Anvil - The Story of Anvil. It's a documentary about a heavy-metal group who enjoyed success in the early eighties but nothing much since. However the two main guys in the band are eternal optimists and are still trying to 'make it'. This film is like a spoof like This is Spinal Tap expect it is real.

One of my fav films of the decade. Did you enjoy it?

[James]

Yeah, I'm not a fan of heavy-metal but there's lots of unintentionally funny moments in it. The main characters are great too. Very good.

[setanta]

It's my second fav documentary of the decade, my first being Grizzly Man.

[setanta]

No sorry, my third. Dig! is my second.

[KG.]

REC - 9/10

Third time I've seen it, sick horror film, must see for an horror fans, although if you're not a fan of subtitles, then it might be hard to get into, but DON'T go and watch Quarantine thinking it will be the better option, whatever you do.

[Mystic Mock]

mirrors that was ****ing scary man.:hugesmile:

[Shaun]

Transsiberian. Very odd film...pretty good performances though.

[Princess]

When Harry Met Sally

FINALLY saw this,been wanting to watch it for years and never got round to it. Absolutely loved it.

[Tom4784]

The Royal Tenenbaums, One of my favourite.

[MrGaryy]

Yeah, I steered clear of the original too, although I was impressed with how Hollywood tried their hand at the Ring. it wasn't terrible!

I really enjoyed the remake of The Ring. the sequel was horrific, but the first one was actually really good I thought.

[Smithy]

Kill Bill (Vol 2)

[Princess]

The Boys Are Back

Sweet little movie.

[Niamh.]

Mr. Deeds, love it and love Adam Sandler

Some Kind of Wonderful. A good 80s film.

[teamandre]

i robort with will smith ******ing amazing

[Iceman]

guantanmero i think it was called about a guy who was in gunatanamo bay.....good movie confusing at times

[teamandre]

sounds it like it is confusing (the pic of eminem hes amazing infact he on me ipod right now it mocking bird )

[Iceman]

^^eminem is amazing!! recovery is going to be brilliant.

yeah the movie was set in cuba then it kept going back to flashbacks and then there was parts of it that were dreams....

[DrunkerThanMoses]

The Haunting. Was okay but a tad boring for my liking.

[Shaun]

The Baader-Meinhof Complex.

It's an interesting film. I'm often complaining about society but never to the levels of those such as the RAF [Red Army Faction, not our RAF ;)] and whilst it's always glamourised to be part of a revolutionary faction it's always overlooking the violence, the chaos, the disregard for society, that such thinking entails.

I'm also a big fan of Martina Gedeck. She was fantastic in "Das Leben der Anderen" and excels again here. Also didn't recognise Moritz Bliebtreu.

[Niamh.]

40 year old virgin, hilarious!

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Lets Scare Jessica To Death - A Creepy horror thriller that had its moments. SOme how turned from a parnormal film into a zombie film? Good but predictable and sometimes a yawn feast.

Cherry Falls - A Intresting take on the slasher film. Was predictable but good. The acting for a slasher was strangely good and it was a cut better then other slasher films.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Terror at the Opera. Was friday the 13th mets phantom of the opera. Really good, but predicatable who the killer was. The ending was funny know. Was like a scene from sound of music, but being chased by a manic killer lol

Ooo I like Cherry Falls. Britney Murphy stars in that and the killer goes round killing the people who are still virgins! lol

[IheartBB]

Hot Tub Time Machine.

Fecking brilliant!

[BB_Eye]

Went to see a matinée showing of A Nightmare on Elm Street yesterday... my friend and I were the only people in the cinema, lol.

So yeah... big surprise, the movie was piss poor, but then what do you expect from Platinum Dunes i.e. the lousy horror remake factory?

Err... how would I spin this into a backhanded recommendation? It's big, super loud and edited like a music video/reality TV show. So if you have severe ADD and that's your sort of thing or if you liked the Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake more than the original (in which case I can only assume you're an idiot), go and watch this movie.

[Beastie]

Robin Hood. It was okay.. lol

[setanta]

Notorious. Hitchcock, Grant, Bergman and Rains. Don't have to say anymore, do I?

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Yes it was a good slasher film, better then most. However I knew who the killer was from the start.

51st State, very good, Samual L Jackson at his coolest

[Shaun]

Goodfellas.

How have I not seen this before? :lovedup:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Last House on the left the orignal. Was okay but had a few problems to it with editing and all. Had some funny parts and a few shocks. Overall i think it is just as good as the remake.

[InOne]

Rise Of The Foot Soldier. Pretty brutal but a very good film.

[setanta]

Garage. Very bleak and poignant look at rural life in Ireland, with an outstanding lead performance from Pat Shortt.

[IheartBB]

The Ghost (aka The Ghost Writer).

It was okay I suppose, not Polanski's best work. I haven't read the novel, but imagine it works better as a book than a film.

PS - free Polanski!!

In Brudges
love that movie

Romeo + Juliet

Forgot who the killer was. Will have to watch it again! Was funny when the house party looked like a big orgy fest!!!!!!

[ButterflyGirl]

Legion. It was ok but it ended without explaining certain things.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Max Payne

Amazing Movie.

So much relates to the games, i thought they were going to take a different route with the story. wasn't really sure about Mark Wahlberg playing Max payne after watching the movie though i felt he did the Role justice.

[MrGaryy]

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

idk, I kinda felt it's a little overrated. The constant chopping of timelines or whatever you want to call them began to irk me and I felt no sense of closure at the end. Having said that I liked Jim Carey more than I have ever before and Elijah, Kate and Kirsten also played great parts. I loved Clementine's character, I saw a tiny piece of myself in her.

[Sarah.]

The Back Up Plan :)

[setanta]

The Wolfman. Unintentionally hilarious and extremely dumb, but I have to say I enjoyed it for what it was, and Hopkins was chewing up the scenery.

[IheartBB]

[setanta]

The werewolf fighting scene had me in stitches!

Just so funny! I mean, what were they thinking? They hadn't go a clue what they were making really. Must watch it stoned some time.

[Angus]

Ed Wood with Johnny Depp - brilliant, hilarious film and even more astounding it's a true story about the world's worst film director. Terrific performance from Martin Landau as Bela Lugosi. It's all filmed in black & white which makes it so much more authentic, with Sarah Jessica Parker and Patricia Arquette. Enjoyed it so much on rental that I've now bought it.

[Ceilidh]

Streetdance 3D

The dance moves were amazing but it's not really a film I'd watch again in a hurry.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Iceman, a different and intresting movie. Some sad moments but it was a great film. The acting was great as well.

[Niamh.]

Flatliners hadn't seen it in years but it's just as good as I remember

[BOOSH]

I watched Hot Tub Time Machine in the cinema last night - was actually a lot more funny than i thought it would be. everyone kept saying the trailer shows the only funny parts but they're wrong. And, I LOVE the 80s :D

[Kerry]

OK a bit of a cheat but I'm about to watch (yet again as I love it) Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind

Wonderful film

Film 4 at 11:20pm if anyones interested.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Eyes Wide Shut. Was a okay film, very bizzare and wired. Not my favourite Stanely Kubick film know.

[setanta]

Lonesome Dove. Not a film by the strictest of terms, this mini-series has a wonderful cast and production design that do justice to the source material - an epic Western novel written by Larry McMurtry. I don't know how many times I've come back to watch it again over the years and at this stage I don't care because it's just a beautifully crafted piece that I never get tired of. With it's rich characters, multi-layered storyline and stunningly sparse and poetic dialogue, this is a piece of work that transcends the boundaries usually associated with the Western and becomes something so much more real and affecting. Basically, I think it's a masterpiece. Oh, and it helps when you have Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones playing the main roles!

[Beastie]

Big. I watched it years ago but got it on DVD because well as soon as the rumoured "Zoltar" was going in the BB house.. I thought I would catch up on this film! :)

It is an all round feel good family film! If you havn't seen it yet.. watch it :thumbs:

The Men Who Stare At Goats.

A Scanner Darkly - fell asleep half way through so still to watch the end :hugesmile:

[SammyAyee]

nightmare on elm street, never sleep again
it was good and jumpy at some parts :)

Andre. A lovely little family film :) Used to watch it loads as a kid when I had it on video! It is better than the overated "Flipper". A young Joshua Jackson had a little role in the film too! lol

In Bruge - workmate made me watch it as going to a conference in Bruge. (good movie)

Conference is about Health & Safety which gives it link back to TIBB and Mario :hugesmile:

[Beastie]

The last kiss. Quite a good film with a few mild sex scenes. Was about a man (Zac Braff) who knew what was going to happen in his life next. He felt his life was all planned out for him. He then met the beautiful (Rachel Bilson) at a wedding! He thought he was missing something from his life.. something not predictable. He then went on to cheat on his pregnant girlfriend with Rachel Bilson.... only to realise that his pregnant girlfriend is the one he really wants. He then does all what he can to win her back.. he sat outside his pregnant girlfriend's front porch for days on end.. slept outside.. until finally.. his pregnant girlfriend let him back in :) The End.

A rom comish film worth the watch :thumbs:

Death at a Funeral.

Got free tickets to see so I can't complain. Quite funny and enjoyable, some classic one-liners, but other parts felt slow and were trying to hard to get a laugh.

Did you see the skit they did in Comic Relief? It was pretty shi%e apart from the moment the actor playing Brosnan said he'd like to sing to his new wife and Alan Carr starts shouting, "no, speach!!". It was quite funny.

Parents.

Um a strange film, with some good moments to it, but overall a tad boring. Know the parents were creppy and good performances from most the cast including the child. 3/5

I have so much to catch up on on my sky+ planner that I haven't watched a film in ages.. The last one must have been New Moon (I hereby give every forum member permission to take the p!ss as I know I am sad)

New Moon?! Didn't you have enough of that crap with Twilight? Sorry, not a fan.

[setanta]

Hahaha! It's the sequel to Twilight! I didn't think I'd ever be a fan of that kind of crap either believe me! I really suprised myself!

All I can say it tut tut tut to you. I watched the first 10 or 15 mins of New Moon because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about, seeing as the first one was cack. Well anyway, had to turn it off. Don't think I'll ever get it.

I have to admit, the films are slow and fairly crappy compared to the books.. Don't even ask how I ended up reading teenage vampire books, I don't even know myself! I'm not exactly a teenager any more but the books kinda make you feel like one? (haha.. that's my excuse anyway) ;)

That's ok; I'm the same with fantasy adventure novels and just plain old fairytales. Love them! lol

[bansheewails]

Can't beat Salems Lot for a good vampire book, or interview with a vampire, just dont watch the film cause Tom Cruise is crap and cant play 'bad guys' for sh1t!

Fairy tales? Like Little Red Riding Hood n stuff?

Or wait a sec.. do you get adult fairy tales? (I don't mean pervy ones) i'm sure a friend gave me a book of fairy tales by some German bloke but I never read it..

Just simple old children's fairytales or ones that are a little twisted like Roald Dahl's.

John Connolly wrote a great adult novel that incorporated children's fairytales into it's narrative. I loved it.

Ah, I didn't think he was that bad really, plus he played a reasonably good villian in Collateral.

[bansheewails]

I have made it my lifes mission to avoid any film with even a cameo from tom cruise in it! I really dislike him, he gives me the creeps for some reason. He also has dead fish eyes, like maggie thatcher!

George's Marvellous Medicine has always freaked me out for some reason.. I think it scared me as a child and sometimes these fears kind of grow with you? But yeah.. Roald Dahl is fantastic!

Who is John Connolly? What is name of book?

I've never been a huge fan.. I just don't like any of his films. (oh exclude Top Gun from that)
Vanilla Sky has to be by far the biggest lot of sh!t I have ever ever seen.. (as are The Mission Impossible films) <<may get slated for saying that but hey ho!
I feel the same way you do though about Pierce Brosnan and Keanu Reeves. Two of the most wooden actors/irritants around! I can't quite make up my mind who is more wooden though!

[bansheewails]

I am a die hard John Cusack fan, I would watch him sleeping! I even cheered for him in 2012! I liked Keanu in Bill and Ted tho. ;)

John Connolly is a kinda supernatural crime novel writer. I think his first few novels in that genre are great, and then he decided he needed a change of pace and wrote The Book of Lost Things. It's a great read. Well, I think so anyway.

Did you see his cameo in Tropic Thunder? Now you had to like that cuz he actually plays a total creep in it.

[Lee.]

Strangely enough, I've never been a big fan of John Cusack either.. Don't dislike him or anything, just not overly keen. As far as acting talent goes, I don't think there is a modern day actor better than Daniel Day Lewis. And as far as hotness talent goes, there are prob too many to mention but I have to say Daniel Craig first.

[bansheewails]

Haven;t seen tropic thunder, my son has tho. Daniel Day iss a fine actor, bit intense!

I watched the beginning of Tropic Thunder but put it off as it became too noisy?! I have seen a clip of Tom Cruise dancing in it and it did look quite funny :)

Daniel has Irish citizenship now. Sure we'll take him I suppose!!!

[bansheewails]

What? Like Spike Milligan, no one else wanted him? :hugesmile:

[bansheewails]

Mmmmm Robert Downey Jr. LOL, I think the whole Iron man suit does it for me. Haven't seen him in Sherlock Holmes yet, but that damn english fella is putting me off, hate him too!

[Lee.]

Yes I knew that.. Does he actually live over there now?
Loads of people think he is actually Irish for some reason...

[bansheewails]

Daniel Day's father was born in Ireland, Cecil Day Lewis, he was the poet laureate for awhile i think

[Lee.]

Mmmmm Robert Downey Jr. LOL, I think the whole Iron man suit does it for me. Haven't seen him in Sherlock Holmes yet, but that damn english fella is putting me off, hate him too!

Downey Jr Doesn't really do it for me I have to say..

Sorry had to look up his name, Jude Law. Alfie my arse!

His father was Irish and he's always had a connection with the place. He actually doesn't live too far away from me and a couple of lads I know met him once while going out for a jog and there was wee Daniel jogging himself! Said he's a great fella.

[Jords]

The Box.

Dives straight into the story from the start, but gets a bit confusing in the middle, well, I couldnt make out what was going on. However the ending is really good and explains a lot what happens.

[Lee.]

Sorry had to look up his name, Jude Law. Alfie my arse!

Lol.. I liked him in Cold Mountain and oh god whats the name of the film... christ! It's a gangster kind of film with a dad and a kid on the run. Tom Hanks is maybe in it? No maybe he's not... aaaargh, my brain is not functioning today!

[setanta]

Road to Perdition. Excellent flick, and the great Paul Newman was in it too.

[bansheewails]

Didn't watch Cold Mountain either, cause Gerbil cheeks is in that! I am a terrible person, if i dont like an actor in something, thats it they are on my banned list. Life is too short to subject my eyes to awfulnesss!

[Harry!]

Final Destination 1 + 2.

Watching FD 3 later on.

Ah SNAP!!! I read Anne Rices books before seeing Interview with the Vampire, I loved Lestat and I was sooooooo disappointed when I saw Tom Cruise playing him in the film

[setanta]

William Goldman the screenwriter said that every actor you meet in person is totally different to what you get on screen: they're shorter, spottier etc., apart from one - Paul Newman.

[bansheewails]

They certainly don't, and he was still a beautiful looking man up until his illness.

I think old fashioned movie stars had abit of mystery about them. Todays are splashed on everything and we know every little detail about them and i think that ruins things.

I mean how can we now watch mel Gibson play a loving faithful husband and believe it?

[setanta]

Yeah, my mother introduced me to all the old greats like Peck, Newman, Mitchum, Bogey and co. They just had a quality that you don't get anymore.

I think (aswell as him being a fantastic actor) that's why Daniel Day Lewis holds a lot of appeal. He is very selective about his roles and doesn't do very many and you never see any scandal in the rags about him...

[Lee.]

The Mask :D

Lol.. That's the only film that I have left the cinema half way though for.. First time I had seen Jim Carey in anything and couldn't bear it! (don't mind him as much now)

[setanta]

Yay! Finally some people on here who agree with me about him. Just a total legend.

Most actors do a bad job with the accent though!

[Niamh.]

lol, I swear I didn't see you had used the exact same word as me before I posted it!!:joker:

[Lee.]

I kind of thought it was horrendous but you two being Irish would know better.. There is someone who did a really good Scottish accent recently in a film but I can't remember who. (i can't seem to remember anything today.. don't know what's wrong with me!!)

What was Neeson's like in Rob Roy, or Gibson's in Braveheart?

[Lee.]

What was Neeson's like in Rob Roy, or Gibson's in Braveheart?

Well, in my opinion Mel's wasn't too bad (there were obviously a few words where you could hear a hint of something else) but overall he was pretty good.

I can't remember too much about Rob Roy but I'm pretty sure Neeson more or less spoke with an Irish accent with a wee bit of Scottish through it..

[Lee.]

Did DiCaprio not have a p!ss poor Irish accent in Gangs of New York?

Yeah, I could hear Neeson's Irish accent coming through alright, but sure they're not too dissimilar so he could get away with it.

Eh, who else?

Johnny Lee Miller's in Trainspotting? He's English really, right?

[Niamh.]

Did DiCaprio not have a p!ss poor Irish accent in Gangs of New York?

he sounded American to me from what I remember, was he putting one on?

[Niamh.]

Brad Pitt in The Devils own was fairly brutal too, although I thought he did well with the Traveler accent in Snatch. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman in far and Away.............awful

[Lee.]

Yes, it was a put on Irish accent but not a very good one (IMO anyway) I would have actually expected more from him!

[Niamh.]

Julia Roberts in Michael Collins, awful,awful,awful

The Book of Eli.
Good film with a neat little twist at the end.
8/10.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Rec part 2.

Was a suprise good sequel with some good moments to it. Myabe not as good as the first movie, but still a decent film.

The ending was good and a bit of a cliffhanger, so hopefully a thrid one is being made.

4/5

Coraline

8/10 really liked it, could've been a bit better I thought but it was a good adaption of the book.
