Straight Time

A brilliantly understated crime drama, with Dustin Hoffman playing an ex-con trying to piece his life back together, facing a world that refuses to accept him and old impulses he tries desperately to control.

It's a film that reaffirms a belief I've always held when it concerns Hoffman. You can have your DeNiro's and Pacino's, but if you're looking for a character actor of profound skill and nuance, then I'd go for the Hoffmeister everytime. He plays an unlikeable and often violent character here, but with him in the role there is such a pathos involved that it's very easy to forget who you're watching and become immersed in the storyline and character's troubles. Yeah, I loved it. lol

The Goonies - :love:

The Woods - It was ok, I thought it would be a lot better. It was creepy at times but not enough.

Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes - I loved it. Great story, I'll watch more of his films.

Oh, keep watching his stuff; you wont be disappointed at all. One of the great masters of cinema.

Vampires Suck (2010)
This yet another spoof, this time it a spoof of Twilight’ movie.
I do seem to like a lot Spoof movies, such as all the scary movies, Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth, Not another teen movie, Superheor movies, i did enjoy those movies

I did not like date movie, Epic Movie, Disaster Movie or Stan Hellsing and i have not seen Meet the Spartans.

However for Vampires Suck, i did not hate and i did not love it and i did enjoy the movie.

The movie start of really poor, some of the jokes are way over the top and do not work, but after 20 mins of the movie, it did get a bit better then were some okay jokes scenes which made me laugh few times but it's much better then the god awfull Disaster Movie and Stan Hellsing put together but not as good as any of the Scary movies or even Superhero movie.

if you don't like spoof movies, MISS IT, and if you liked Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth, then you might like this too .

i am going to give this 4 and half out 10 lol

Shutter Island. Remarkable film. Incredible director, incredible cinematographer, incredible acting talent, incredible music selection that creates a nerve wracking atmosphere. Amazing film all around.

Disagree entirely. It was a mess, an atmospheric mess though I suppose.

Mrs. Doubtfire

At a child's birthday party,haha.

'21'. Quite an interesting story abouta group of mathematical geniuses that use card counting to win at blackjack in Las Vegas casinos.

'Inspired by true events'. :p

Ahhhh yeah, I've seen to doc about that. Inspired me to start card counting lol It's hard though D:

He's Just Not That Into You

Love<3

Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

It was okay...but a bit pointless. Oh and as if Barcelona needed more romanticising. Penelope Cruz is fantastic, though.

Yeah, they said about the film that the reason the makers were allowed to film in the casinos was because they knew that lots of people who saw the film would want to try card-counting; but it is too difficult and would just lose money to the casinos profit. :p

I still don't get why it's illegal though, it's basically a skill isn't it? And like I thought the casino were more bothered about devices and stuff, also they're not switching cards or anything.

Milk.

One of my favourite movies ever, since it a million times but still love it.

Moon

just...amazing :love:

40 Days and 40 Nights,loved it.

Next is either The Duchess or Coraline,both of which are on my Sky+

Cannibal Holocaust

God I like horror films but this was too much even for my liking. I respect it was different from other films, however the nudity was too much for my liking, and some parts were to ah for me. But overall, not a bad film. Can see why it was banned know!

Apparently it is legal.

Last film I watched was Hancock, the Will Smith film. I generally liked it. The premise is good and some of the ideas about a super-hero as an outsider and not like everyone else are actually quite moving in places. Not sure the overall plot was all that great though.

The Sting. One of those few films that is endlessly rewatchable, with a great script, nice ensemble cast and an evocative score, setting and cinematography. The thing I noticed about it this time, apart from it being hugely entertaining as always, is the meloncholy that permeates the whole thing. It's as if the director was longing for this type of film and story to be told again simply because, for better or worse, movies at the time were exploring far darker themes and contempary issues, and that old school style of filmmaking was disappearing fast. I suppose it's because of it's delightful playfulness the the film eventually went on to win Best Film at the Oscars - it's whimsical and sure footed in it's execution - just like it's intricate plot - and, of course, Paul Newman is in it. Winner all round really.

Eclipse :D

FINALLY saw Avatar. Amazinggg,although it would have been incredible on the big screen.

The Skeleton Key

Pretty crap, very predictable, I knew what was going to happen and the ending was no surprise at all

Hatchet, Thought it was a good horror film, funny at times and I enjoyed the homages to other horror films

Predators.

It could have been better, but an entertaining instalment to the series nonetheless. Brilliantly acted by all cast members (especially Laurence Fishburne’s 10 minute cameo) and despite some ludicrous plot holes and twists, fulfils its purpose.
