The Bourne movies are up there with my favorite trilogies of all time.... I may give Cold Mountain a try another time.. Wasn't in the mood for it... My girlfriend has read a book every week for the 4 years i've known her, and Cold Mountain was the first book that she didn't want to finish.. :confused:
Shows that we all have different tastes..
I'm a real fan of cheap thrills though... I do like deeper stuff of course, but rarely is a big blockbuster with even a half decent story line wasted on me..
I didn't like Crash either.. Didn't like Monsters Ball or whatever with Halle Berry.. Plus this one will probably get me crucified by a few people, but I wouldn't put Halle Berry in my top 200,000 most attractive women on earth.. Neither with Angelina Jolie.. Both are as overrated to me as just about anything can be overrated....
Darn, every time I try to think of some of the movies I didn't like, I end up just thinking of actors I don't like..
I'll have to dig up one of our "recommend me a movie" threads.. I remember most of the movies recommended were brilliant, but there were a few that I thought were horrible...
I watched Seven Pounds yesterday, I thought that was a great film, actually got a bit weepy at the end, it was a sad film but uplifting at the same time and Will did a great job in it I thought.
They just started advertising that over here and comes out 7th of January I think.. or something like that... Just from the ad's i've seen on television, I can't work out what it's even about???? I'll probably pass on the spoiler.. The Mrs is probably going to drag me to see it sometime..Quote:

Has anyone seen this?? Another one i'll be dragged to in the next few weeks, so a heads up if I should bring my PSP :) kidding...
I've only got a DS...
Cloverfield. Pure garbage.
"SIGNS",with Mel Gibson.I was expecting sooo much due to it having rave reviews,but i found it totally crap!!!!!:-\
Seven Pounds is a great film mate but honestly if you are capable of being even remotely emotional over movies I wouldn't watch it in a public theatre. I sat at home on my own and couldn't help shedding a tear or two, if I'd have been in public I would have had to kill myself. :pQuote:

Benjamin Button is my viewing choice this weekend, it's supposed to be the best film of the year, has gotten great reviews.
My favourite film of the year so far though has been Taken with Liam Neesen. That film was just fucking rocked :cool:
Yah man, here our tastes are similar, I also think Jolie is overrated on the hotness scale. A little too skinny and precious for my liking. And not a good actress. I'll say one thing in her defense, she does put her money where her mouth is when it comes helping people in poverty. I think Halle Berry is pretty cool though, until she opens her mouth, which kinda spoils it for me. We wouldn't last a week.Quote:

loved that film aint seen it since first came out thoughQuote:

the departed, not sayin it was crap but was no way as good as everyone was saying
Wall-e, this started well then i just didnt care after twenty mins
Get smart, this was just not funny enough, see all the best clips in the 2 min trailer
Be Kind Rewind, had to turn this off it was so poor
The thin red Line, some people have this as there favourite war film of all time, i sat & watched all 3 hrs of that shite in the cinema, i just didnt care who lived & who died in the end just wanted it to end
Appollo 13, snorefest with the always boring tom hanks
these are the ones that come to mind
think alot of people will disagree with you on that one but i defo prefered pulp fiction and true romanceQuote:

I adore Reservoir DogsQuote:

Jackie Brown was shit, felt like 3 hours of movie, 2 and a half of that was Pam Grier walking to funk music.Quote:

Battlefield Earth had to be the worst movie in history, you'd think with all that money Scientology generates they could hire someone to make write a storyline.
Brokeback mountain, was a waste of time too. I'll never have that time back.
Twilight was really lame as well. I had to take a shower to wash the estrogen off me after leaving the theater.
I think Quentin Tarantino's ridiculously overrated. Not always a popular opinion, I'd kind of like to kick him in the face.
Reservoir Dogs was pretty decent though IMO.
Um, you need to go rewatch some movies.Quote:

Quentin T. is god!
I like Tarentino and all but let's face facts Kill Bill SUCKED...True Romance is good though.
Citizen Kane is utter crap only famous for the camera angles and the line "Rooooosebud"
Heaven's Gate is like one of the biggest monetary flops in history
Kill Bill :plthumbsdown:Quote:

True Romance, Resevior Dogs, Pulp Fiction GREAT
Kill Bill 1 & 2 totally sucked
Tarentino is kind of like Guy Ritchie, he seemed to lose "it" for a couple films....I hope they both get "it" back so I can go see some decent films soon!
Now the Cohen Brothers have had some GREAT movies!!! Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, Fargo, etc etc....great films
Spiderman(all of them)
independance day, what a load of shit
no country for old men, pure crap
superbad- students trying to get laid, how original
epic movie or any of those types
cloverfield, didn't realise before i went in it was all on handheld camera, made a crap film even worse
war of the worlds
most recent let down was the italian film Gomorra, heard it was like City of God but that was a lie...
Agree 100 percent Tarantino is the most self important, annoying film director in cinema history. I can't stand him and would also love to kick him in his face, or at least watch whilst you do it.Quote:

Spiderman 1 and 2 were pretty good I thought if you can get past Toby McGuire, 3 was a giant bag of shit.
Superbad was great.
I thought Batman Begins sucked, still haven't seen Dark Night.
You guys are crazy who say Kill Bill sucked, that's nuts. I can see how you could not get into it but when you look at how many things he did in that movie, that was a great movie it had everything from classic kung-fu training scenes, spaghetti western style shootouts to anime to some of the coolest fight scenes ever.
I love that movie. You can't say it all sucked. I agree he over-stylizes everything in an attempt to pronounce who the director is (you can be shown a Tarantino movie, not know it's a Tarantino movie but still know who directed it) but Kill Bill was imo his best movie maybe next to Pulp Fiction.
I can see how you say it sucked but No Country For Old Men was baaddaasss.
You are correct sirQuote:

No even if you felt Batman Begins sucked, I pretty much guarantee you won't be let down by The Dark Knight, it's simply not a film where there is much subjective opinion. I'm not saying that to be a prick I can see how every movie I like could possibly not be liked but The Dark Knight is on another level you just have to see it really.
At the very least you'll like it there isn't much chance you'll think it's garbage.
Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction were GREAT... full of hilarious clever dialogue.
But then he lost the plot.
Recently saw Death Proof. Boring as funk. Fact.
"Great" movies that suck = Lord of the Rings. I saw the first one.. thought boring as funk.
Made it through half of the second. Luckily was watching it on DVD and not at the cinema.
Just don't get the love for it :-\
yeah man didnt much fancy watchin that death proofQuote:
