Just watched WANTED.... Erm, guess it was okay, made me smile - but only at how far fetched it was. If you can REALLY and I mean REALLY suspend your brain for a couple hours, you might enjoy it

Cracking effects, and Angelina Jolie is looking mighty fine in it, tho I think her tits look smaller than usual

Morgan Freeman is good as ever tho - worth it just to hear him say "kill this motherfucker" like Samual L Jackson would

ended up getting Shooter... the other welsh one wasnt in Blockbusters..

Bit shit really as its too unrealistic. He has about 200 people shooting at him, and just so happens that not one bullet hits him! Other than that, was alright.

alien was a very good film when it came out, other than the fact the alien was a block in fancy dress

aliens was much better due to the fact that they sorted out the effects, even though they were cheap and nasty in comparison to some of those seen today, it was as good a film as it's predecessor

but didn't you just love the bit where the guy says "it wasn't me, i didn't do anything, it was all them!!!" and he just blows him away

which conan? barbarian or deystoyer? one was significantly better than the other, red sonja is another sword and scorcery epic that is much better than the others of it's ilk, beastmaster and shit like that, but it is still a shit film

this week i watched, in no particular order:

shooter
shooter
cars
cars
cars
wall-e
wall-e
increadables
increadables
a bugs life
over the hedge
toy story
toy story 2
chicken little
escpae from alcatraz
cars
wall-e
chicken little
several random indian films of which i have no idea what they were called, let alone how to write their names down, all to do with love and honour and stuff, one was about a wrestler who is a money lender who has a deaf mute sister, and some deaf mute conman who comes to work at their house falls in love, and then it gets complicated as the wrestler batters the shit out of him for spoiling his sisters marriage and then he admits he can talk and sends all this money back to the peole he swindle, them being his old mans villiagers who want to burn the hosue down, etc, etc
it's a really funny film in bits as well as a bit seriues in other
plus there's another one about a load of couples who have their honeymoon on the same boat
sholay (the greatest film ever in the history of indian ceniema, you HAVE you watch it, but make sure the english subtitles are on) it's like the magnificent 7, in hindi
there are loads of other films i've see on sky, it's mainly been stuck on channel 305, but they are all excellent

I watched a film called 'The World's Fastest Indian' whilst bored offshore. I was shocked how good it was!

A true story about an old guy in his 60's (I think) who loved his Indian motorbike and his story about travelling from OZ to the Salt Flats in the US to try to break the Land Speed Record.
He's played by Anthony Hopkins.

Has lots of funny little antidotes as he is as agricultural as me when it comes to getting stuff to work. lol

Well worth the watch for any motor head.

I watched ''rise of the footsolider recently'' for the first time, AMAZED how accurate the story line is and using all the real people involved names. Every other word in the film is ''cunt''

once were warriors is a quality film, so I am hoping Blockbusters have this recommendation.

What Becomes of the broken hearted (follow on from once were warriors)

American History X - Was a good one but light years old now.

Once Were Warriors - Remember the scene when Jake smacks the living daylights out of Beth?...Make the fcking Eggs!!!! LOL

Scum - "Where's ya tool?....What tool?....THIS TOOL!" .....BOSH

I just watched it this afternoon..... Fucking SUPERB film! Really fucking ace! If you like fighter jets and naval aviating, then this is for you! The footage is superb - it's nowhere near as glamourous as Top Gun, and there's not as much footage as there was in Top Gun, but this isn't Top Gun (lol) It's about two peoples lives, two REAL people, as they struggle to realise their dreams of becoming F-14 Fighter Pilots.

Some of it is actually extremely moving, some of it is very funny, some of it is "holy shit!" moments, and some of it is just downright impressive. And overall, it's just 1 and half hours of top notch film making about fighter jets and fighter pilots. It's beautifully shot, well presented, and excellent viewing

5 out of 5 from me!

lol all the welsh love twin town to the extreme, but being a essex boy living in the swansea area it is filmed, It is just a load of welsh boys showing off and not a true reflection of swansea at all.

but still a good film


Quick Reply: Anyone watched a good film lately....?
