dubai_phil Posted 27 February, 2012 Share Posted 27 February, 2012 Abduction. Knew nothing about the film, was one of a bunch of dodgy DVD's I bought at New Year in Thailand that my man said "isss gooood". Label of DVD was all in Thai, so was at the bottom of the pile of ones to watch. As a result when finally put it on had to wait for the plot & story to develop wondering if it was a Superbad type High School Kid movie or what. If you like those "Spy Movie" What is happening? Who is the Good Guy? Innocent involved - North by Northwest type thrillers then it is a 9/10, although future Mrs D_P thinks I was mean and gave it a 10 for being a cracking yarn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsy Posted 4 March, 2012 Share Posted 4 March, 2012 The Muppets I was interested to see this one as the TV show was way before my time and as I only know the muppets from the sh!t movies I figured there must be something more to them and I was hoping to learn what! Jason Seagull is in this one. He plays his role like a children's tv presenter, wearing a fixed grin and faux cheerfulness the whole time which is never quite convincing as you can sense the inner turmoil behind his eyes, the drug addictions, the knowledge that he's wasting his life, the endless battle with his weight problems. Talking of weight problems, Amy Adams has put on a fair bit of lumbar! I remember her being hot in Enchanted but in this movie she's carrying at least an extra 30 pounds. I guess she had to do it to make her role as Seagulls girlfriend more convincing. Method acting. The first twenty minutes or so of this movie are murderously boring. I think it's the song and dance numbers. There's this one Seagull does which seems to go on forever. I can take a song in a movie but it has to be a really good one, the original songs in the muppets are all pretty dull. Probably best to wait for dvd so you can fast forward. Things pick up a bit when the original muppet cast show up. I hate kermit of course but some of the others like Professor Honeydew, Beaker and the two old men are pretty entertaining. I also like Animal. You can see why they died out though, muppet faces are pretty much fixed in one expression, Kermit looks put upon and sappy, Beaker looks terrified, in these days of computer animations we expect for more range. Pretty restrictive when one of your main characters like Kermit always looks sappy, when the plot might be served better if he can get mad. Maybe that's what's up with Seagull, he played his role like a muppet. Either that or a total fag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearsy Posted 11 March, 2012 Share Posted 11 March, 2012 (edited) I'm watching The Help at the moment. Them blacks in 60s America has a pretty sweet deal! We learn they git $40 a week just to clean they toilet and stuff while they white journalist only git $8 a week. That be pretty generous right there! Also they git they own toilet to use, imagine that! Does your work git you your own toilet just for your own use? I know mine doesn't! I don't think i can take much more tho, it is pretty boring. I was only really watching for Emma Stone but them clothes they wore in them days ain't too hot. I think I'll turn it off now.

dubai_phil Posted 18 March, 2012 Share Posted 18 March, 2012 TV turned up 2 classics tonight. I glued future Mrs D_P to the sofa and told her to sit down & shut up First I had spotted thanks to the thread in the Lounge about "The Greatest Sound"... Yeah the duplicate shots, the dodgy explosions, but ah the beauty of seeing the flights of Spitfires flying in formation Spent a lot of the film explaining who the mega star actors were! The Battle of Britain - 1st time she'd really understood any of what went on, but she was totally captivated by it and FINALLY understood why I had been retelling teh stories of Middle Wallop Airshow & the night an ME109 chased a Spitfire & did an impromptu Dogfight over Old Sarum airfield back in the 80"s 2nd film - another brilliant capture of "English life" but one much closer to our hearts - Looking for Eric. (No not our OSH expert) the Cantona movie. Saw it before on a plane, saw it tonight in HD, just a great portrayal of the harsh loneliness of life in the UK for many and the culture of the Footie fan. Loved both movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ms pap does much the same thing, Bearsy. Liberty takers, one and all. I am pretty sure her line of reasoning is "it's 90 minutes of my life. If I watch this, perhaps the c**t will f**k off and leave me alone to watch a reality show". Unfortunately for Ms pap, I have pretty excellent taste. She claims that such things are crap, but invariably ends up marathoning more of the same. I refer the jury to the evidence collected during the recent Shatner Star Trek Films saga.

Actually (God Bless the Director) she totally perked up early on when they mentioned the Polish & Czech squadrons. She was then laughing at the banter from the Polish "Training Flight" when they laid into some Heinkels. She even became able to spot the differences between the Spit (Rounded wing tips) Hurricanes (less rounded) and the ME 109's - almost square tipped. She also expressed an interest in actually visiting the Museum at Duxford. She Oh no'd when Michael Caine snuffed it (Jeez how she recognised HIS plane - I'd not noticed!) She did ROFL at the almost cartoon plane blowing up paintings and - God Bless her - even remarked - "That's at LEAST the 3rd time that Spitfire has flown past the Heinkel's Radio Mast" (Not that she had become MLG but because she had asked what it was in a previous shot (Thank God for Airfix I knew the answer!) Oh AND she made me re-tune from the "Sound from Telly) HDMI connection we have to the "Through the Home Theatre System" to hear the noise better. So ya boo sucks! As for Looking for Eric. She had NO idea who Eric Cantona was. She DID comment after seeing the clips of his goals in the movie - Wow I see what you mean, he looks almost as Good as Le Tiss She did ROFL that Steve Evets (Eric) did an uncanny impression of our Eric (minus the Eastleigh accent) (Not sure his pad up the road is quite as chaotic though) And she did say.... Oh Lord don't tell me that is what you lot used to be like on Coaches to Away days.... yep I said.. Even down to the baseball bats & paint guns in the Coach Luggage Hold....

However, the film is still great, and definitely more upbeat. Extremely prescient too. When it first came out, shows like "Climbing for Dollars" would be unthinkable. With reality shows and the like, doesn't seem quite as implausible. We've already got celebrities being tormented in the jungle, while the baying crowds in the X-Factor audition stages are like a prototype version of those who cheered when lions chowed down on gladiators.

Bearsy Posted 26 March, 2012 Share Posted 26 March, 2012 Yeah I went to see Hunger Games, not with Steeeve but I kind of concur with his opinion, "not the best". Dunno what was wrong with it, it kind of looked a bit budget, the main girl was good, the love interest was weak though all the girls in my cinema gave out gasps of excitement when she kissed the grumpy looking little runt she was supposed to be into. She clearly weren't into him tho, she clearly had a secret thing for Lenny Kravitz. Probably she hadn't heard his music yet. I know it's a kids film but it could've used more violence too, you kind of know what's going on but you don't get to see too much of it. Also I noticed there's hardly any background music - how am I supposed to know what to feel without musical prompts from John Williams??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 27 March, 2012 Share Posted 27 March, 2012 I watched this! It had better killings and stuff tho i did feel a bit dirty leering over the Japanese school girls. Very pleased to hear it! It is a pretty smart film, which ekes out quite a bit of suspense when you have the clusters of kids littered about the place. Are these fellows really friends, or is your man on the left going to pull a chainsaw through the girl with the pigtails? Seeing as you've proven to be a cultured little bear, I shall recommend another Japanese film. Confessions. It's a revenge story concerning a teacher who suffered the death of her child. Authorities pin it down as an accident, but she believes her daughter was murdered, and that the perpetrator(s) is/re in her classroom Film plays out like a whodunnit with flashbacks, each one giving you a better understanding of what has really gone on. Awesome film. Really. I also heard a good joke! Do you want to hear it! This is it - you ready? Ok! Ahem. Are the SaintIcons©® inspired by our friends on the UI? They really like icons.

LVSaint Posted 29 March, 2012 Share Posted 29 March, 2012 My Week with Marilyn - 7/10.

SNSUN Posted 29 March, 2012 Share Posted 29 March, 2012 FIlms I have watched today: Tamara Drewe: 5/10. Ok, it's a chick flick, but it was on my Sky+ thanks to the missus and I was doing some ironing so I thought I'd lady it up. It was ok, the acting wasn't bad, the storyline was weak but there were one or two chuckles to be had. Gemma Arterton scampily dressed probably sticks an extra mark on the final score though! The Running Man: 8/10. Granted it's so outdated now, but it's still a great storyline and gripping from start to finish. Some great lines for Arnie, I thought "I'll Be Back" was from another movie for some reason. This was the first 18 movie I ever watched (I think I was 14 at the time), and so it probably holds great memories for me, but it's a very good movie all the same. It's one of those movies that could be re-made. (as is the great Hollywood tradition to take good movies and remake them badly). Also of note, the premise of The Running Man was that it was set in 2019, after a worldwide crash of economy, could happen, and a shortage of oil, could happen. Eerie! Although they did still use cassettes and home videos in the film! (Oh, and I didn't know that Richard Dawson, the great American game show host that portrayed Damon Killian, was born in Gosport!)

dubai_phil Posted 1 April, 2012 Share Posted 1 April, 2012 Finally sat down and was able to watch Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy on DVD this evening. OK. I'm an idiot for not having done it earlier. Suppose many would have critiqued it for the fact that they could follow the story (which IIRC was impossible with the TV series) Excellent film, excellent cast but Sherlock took some getting used to with the whole Gay hair and stuff. 8/10 Out of interest just before on the Movie Channel we had 8 Below.

SNSUN Posted 2 April, 2012 Share Posted 2 April, 2012 3 films watched today, as I was still hungover from my stag and had nothing better to do! (500) Days of Summer - 5/10. I was pretty bored whilst watching this, but it's not bad. It's followable and decently acted. Zooey Deschanel, nice. Ali G Indahouse - 8/10. Most people I know think this is pretty stupid, but I find it entertaining, especially being a local boy to Staines. Ali G's best character, and the only film where he wasn't deliberately trying to wind up the Americans. Rhona Mitra, nice. Anger Management - 6/10. I used to have this on VHS but I never liked it, although watching it today it's not quite as bad as I remember it. I actually like Adam Sandler's films (again that must put me in the minority) but this is one of his weaker attempts. Heather Graham, nice.

Tried it again, fell asleep, tried it a 3rd time stayed awake and found it really boring. I can't stand stuff in foreign like Headhunters or Girl With The Dragon Tattoo zzzZZZZ.
