what was the last movie you saw? - Page 168

Evil One · 23 Jun 2009, 23:52

I agree. He's a one-trick pony. The only film I've liked him in was School Of Rock and I'd hardly discribe it as brilliant.

samurai7 · 24 Jun 2009, 02:57

Have you not seen High Fidelity then? Awesome movie, as far as I'm concerned.

Sarge · 24 Jun 2009, 06:37

Another very old movie with Errol Flynn: Captain Blood.

Pudding · 24 Jun 2009, 08:06

Rumour had it that Errol Flynn could bang out "Star Spangled Banner" on a xylophone with his large penis.

Sarge · 24 Jun 2009, 09:28

LOL, well, that was not featured in the movie.

As for the Jack Black debate, I have to say I don't find him particularly funny either... I was very disappointed with Be Kind Rewind, High Fidelity was okay but only because of John Cusack, and JB's King Kong struck me as the scriptwriter saying 'okay, this is going to be really bad, lets see what else we can stuff in it... We've got a giant gorilla, fainting blonde, big stars..... hmmm.... I know!!!! Giant insects!!! Dinosaurs!!!!! That'll make it better!!!!!!!!!'

Pudding · 24 Jun 2009, 22:35

The Doors with Val Kilmer because there was nothing else on TV. Christ what a shit film on every front. I'm not a particular Doors fan anyway

AndrewG · 24 Jun 2009, 23:56

"Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen"

Oh my god. Words fail to describe this awful, awful, awful mess of what cannot really be called a "movie" in my opinion.
And me actually having an appreciation of the MTV - popcorn style movies which Michael Bay is famous for doing (the awesome Bat 2 Meat Loaf videos, I also loved "The Rock", "Bad Boys I" and especially "Armageddon") I can ONLY conlcude this one sucks ass big time. Possibly one of the worst cinema experiences I have ever had (no joke). I just wanted it to end after about 45 minutes in... I definitely would have walked out of the cinema if I had been there alone or if I was with someone else who didn't like it.

The first Transformers movie would never be in my top 100 films or let alone top 1000 probably but at least it had originality, some interesting ideas and funny bits. I actually remember seeing the Transformers car chase mid way through and thinking it was excellent. The 2nd installment is just ridiculous. 150 minutes of explosions, CGI, empty and uninteresting characters who all pretty much do nothing, plot lines which move far too fast, no single shot that lasts longer than 1 second, Megan Fox (hugely overrated imo) running around for no reason in a slinky top, absolutely NO character development, etc. etc. And believe me I actually wanted to like this film and would have forgiven some of these cliches to an extent but 150 minutes of constant CGI really does not make a movie I think. There is NO heart in this, NO passion for making a movie which harnass human values to any extent, instead it spits in the face of decency and it makes a Britney Spears musicvideo look like an opus. The "script" must have been 1 single A4 sheet????

Definitely the worst thing I have EVER seen that has had the names "Michael Bay" and "Steven Spielberg" associated with it. I have forgiven them both for "Bad Boys II", "Pearl Harbour", "1941" and "Amistad". How in God's name do they get away with making something like this????

Extremely disappointed.... I cannot believe Paramount and Dreamworks have commissioned Transformers 3. I can only conclude they have NO dignity whatsoever and I have lost a LOT of respect for Spielberg on this one too.

Blair Witch Project was the worst for me, what a mountain of shit that was

Sarge · 25 Jun 2009, 04:33

Mine was Titanic. A far-fetched cheesy love story, Leonardo Di Caprio, Celine Dion singing...

Just watched The Transporter. The "plot" has more holes than Swiss cheese but the action is amusing.

Evil One · 25 Jun 2009, 04:33

Bangkok Dangerous was the worst film I've ever seen at the cinema. Utter, utter shit. Not how the trailers made it look at all.

Devil's Son · 25 Jun 2009, 10:24

sorry to say this but the worst movie i have seen was pleasure drivers

Sarge · 25 Jun 2009, 10:34

Fortunately, it never made it to the cinema (at least not in Europe, as far as I know). I paid €1 for the DVD and I think I paid too much. There is no "pleasure" in that flick, it is annoying from the beginning to the end. Even Meat Loaf is annoying in that movie (that should give you an idea how bad it is, I usually enjoy his performances, even in crappy movies).

I agree.... total and utter drivel....

Last movie I watched was The Libertine... Somehow Samantha Morton doesn't look right with hair, ever since I saw her in Minority Report....

**Monstro** · 01 Jul 2009, 22:42

Watching Seven Pounds and struggling, jeez this is slow!!!!!!!

Sarge · 01 Jul 2009, 23:11

See No Evil, Hear No Evil with Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder

Steve6 · 01 Jul 2009, 23:46

"The Last House on the Left"

I thought it was going to be a really scary horror. It wasn't but it was a really good film

"Drag Me to Hell"

It was supposed to be a horror but the whole cinema was rolling on the floor laughing. It was quare funny haha

howlerformeatloaf · 02 Jul 2009, 12:42

The last movie i watched this week was the new Bad News Bears with Billy BoB Thorton. i thought that was really funny. I likd BBT.

**Monstro** · 03 Jul 2009, 00:32

Just finished Gran Torino, as much as Seven Pounds was shite this was excellent, could sit through it again easily.

Pudding · 03 Jul 2009, 06:06

Transformers 2 - I didn't think it was a bad film, not great, but what do you expect with a film about alien robots changing back and forth into vehicles?

**RadioMaster** · 03 Jul 2009, 08:27

load of bull

Yeah definitely one of M Night Shymalan's weaker efforts. I didn't think it was total crap (as in Transformers 2, nothing can ever get that bad imo) but it didn't have a strong twist and the subject matter was far too morbid to be entertaining rather than captivating I thought. His films "Signs" and "The Sixth Sense" are well beyond brilliant I think though.

Pudding · 03 Jul 2009, 11:00

Signs was shit, Sixth Sense was his best to date. Is The Happening on the same shit scale as Knowing?
