Last movies you saw - Page 40

Last night I watched Babylon A.D.

And you know what - it was an alright movie. It wasn't fantastic, Vin Diesel is a terrible actor - and occasionally it drags - but the concept of the movie I really, really enjoyed.

I wouldn't buy the movie, however.

I saw Drag Me to Hell and absolutely loved it. I've been desperate for somebody to make a good new horror movie and it's not all that surprising that it took Sam Raimi to do it. It was over the top, legitimately funny, and best of all legitimately scary. A negative is Justin Long, but he was such a weinus that I kind of enjoyed his character just because he was such a weinus. Anyway, it's only half way through the year, but that flick is going to be tough to beat for my favorite of the year just because the hope I have for it that it may rejuvenate a stagnant genre that I really like.

Drunken Master

Awesome of course.

Ric · 06-06-2009, 06:32 PM

Drunken Master is great. You should check out a film called City Hunter if only for this scene -

But by far one of my absolute favourite Jackie Chan films is called 'Miracles' I highly recommend this film, it's a must see.

Just watched Battle Royale. A brilliant Japanese film about a class of school children put on an island and forced to fight to the death. Features Takeshi Kitano. Fantastic film, if a little gory and fucked up. It has one of the most cringe worthy bollock stabbing scenes in any film ever.

The Hangover.

It was actually pretty funny stuff. You should see it if you're looking for a laugh.

Ric · 06-06-2009, 11:41 PM

Just watched Drag Me To Hell on The Germanator's recommendation. I must agree that it was actually a pretty good film. Definately the best modern Horror movie I have seen in a few years. Nice film to watch just before you go to bed

*SPOILERS*

If I was that bitch though I would have gotten my arse to a church. As for the ending, gutted lady. That's what you get for being a calous bitch in the first place. She should have checked the envelope before she dug the Gipsy up, stupid woman.

*END SPOILERS*

Legend of Drunken Master. Wow. Some amazing fight scenes. And that last one looked painful as hell.

Hahaha awesome.

I shall check out Miracles.

I think Battle Royale was the first modern Japanese movie I saw. Been a while. There was a sequel too right? Check out Suicide Club for teen violence of a similar vein. Actually I think most of the Japanese movies I've seen are violent to a cartoony extent. Ichi the Killer is awweeessooome.

oh god, I've watched that film about 2 or 3 years ago but I had forgotten the name. thank you Ric, I'll... "acquire" the film when I get back home on tuesday.

Teuthida · 06-15-2009, 08:53 PM

Just watched The Myth. It was...well, it was pretty...and the historical drama part was good. First martial arts movie with flying I've seen where there's actually a reason behind it.

Haven't found it online yet. Shall get from Netflix sometime soon.

BreakABone · 06-15-2009, 09:53 PM

I "watched" Bangkok Dangerous.

It was like 3 in the morning and I was at work so was in and out of sleep.

Anyhow... as far as I can tell its about a long-haired Nick Cage teaching an Asian kid karate... think about it

Seth · 06-15-2009, 10:40 PM

I love Jackie Chan. He's da man. I'm going to get a 'bundle' of his films once I have more storage capacity. There aren't too many of his movies that I have yet to see, but a lot of them were viewed so long ago I need a refresher.

I have to see Project A still. The sequel was soo good, can't believe I haven't gotten to the original yet. Also, I wanna check Thunderbolt cuz of the race scenes. I heard 3 Brothers(aka dragons forever) is super.

I have found a torrent where you can get a copy. If you like I can PM you a link, just let me know. It is the only one I have found so far too.

Just watched Bridge To Terabithia, it's not often I will watch a Disney movie but I actually thought this was a good film. Anyone who has seen it will know what I mean when I say, 'Disney really can be cruel/nasty mother fuckers when they want to be.'

Angrist · 06-07-2009, 02:28 PM

The Simpsons Movie. 5/10

Man, that was boring. I was hoping they had saved up the best jokes for like 2 seasons. But this was hardly funny. And I didn't like the way they colored it, too bland.

I first saw the film years ago too and have actually watched it several times, I mentioned it because I had just watched it again and thought it would be a good one to post. Yes, you ''acquire'' the film, that is my normal method

I like to ''acquire'' things.

Now for Sunday, after watching the Turkish GP I was unable to use the laptop (it's not mine) so I thought, what have I not seen yet? So today I watched all the Harry Potter's back to back. That'll save me some reading. My favourite scene from the five movies? When Hermiony punches Malfoy in the face. It was about time, if I was Harry I would have kicked the shit out of him on day one

I want the next HP now.
