Review the last movie you saw thread

[Spruce Goose]

Speaking of books, I demand that everyone read Tokyo by Mo Hayder. I was emotionally drained after reading it. Just... dude. Excellent book, but I could never read it again - much like I could never watch Once Were Warriors again, because it took so much out of me the first time.

I started reading Tokyo last night.
I was tired so only planned on reading the Prologue but ending up reading the first couple of chapters. Is pretty interesting so far. The old professor guy has just agreed to talk to Grey so now she has to go look for a job to keep her in Tokyo.....

Seems pretty good so far... I just want to know what the atrocities are now though

Oh, you'll find out. I'd never even heard of that part of history before so it was a real eye-opener.

You can get it for $14.10. Remind me in a month or two when I'm further through the books I've got!

I think I got it on eBay for $3 when Spiff posted about it a year and a half ago

 

[Winmar]

Score! That's even better.

I finished Tokyo while in Hawaii last week.
It was good... Though u kinda guessed what the magical exlixer was about 3/4's through...

 

[Spruce Goose]

It would actually make a good movie I thought

Watched "Devil" last week, written and produced (but not directed by) M. Night Shyamalan. Really enjoyed it, but I like most of his stuff quite a bit.

Best movie I have seen in the last month or so was THE TOWN.
Directed by Ben Affleck based in Boston about a gang of Bank Robbers who kidnap a girl working in the bank.
Affleck's character ends up forming a relationship with this girl who doesnt know he is one of the dudes who kidnapped her (they were wearing masks).

I loved both of the Ben Affleck directed films that I have seen (The Town and Gone Baby, Gone).

Still got to see The Town

 

[Spruce Goose]

Have you seen Gone Baby Gone?

 

[Southy]

nope, don't ever remember that interesting me

Went to see Paul last night.... I'm a huge Pegg / Frost fan but I was very hesitant about this. Mainly for three reasons;

- it's an American produciton
- Seth Rogan as Paul
- Paul was VERY, VERY similar to Roger from American Dad

I'm happy to say though that the film was excellent. After a few minutes you begin to forget it's Rogan doing the voice. He was still very Roger like, but this wasn't a bad thing overall

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I AM a big Pegg/Frost fan and like Seth Rogan. I plan to see it on Sunday. Hopefully the Roger comparison is minimal, because I think American Dad is shit.

Finally got around to seeing The Social Network on the weekend.
I liked it. Nothing really happens but it is interesting.
Not sure how faithful it is to how it all actually went down....

I watched Lethal Weapon 3 last night on GO!. What an awesome movie. Not as good as LW4 but still one of the better movies I've seen this year.

 

[Bucko]

total garbage but caught Hot Tub Time Machine last friday nite , bloody funny IMO ....

 

[Southy]

hilarious rubbish

 

[Winmar]

Sounds like a film I'd like to see!

I watched American Beauty again this evening. Excellent film.

Get drunk, and watch it, or better yet, sit back and drink up while watching it. It's that sort of big dumb movie, its good stuff, stupid and makes fuck all sense
