Title: In the mood for a film
Post by: Khare on 14 June 2011, 20:47: I'm in the mood to watch a nice film with some popcorn. I watched the guardian last night, so I am now born bred and water fed HOORAH!

I feel like watching either saving private ryan or a police/swat movie kind of like bad boys or point break. Anyone fancy suggesting any ideas? I also wouldn't mind something like unstoppable or shooter :smiley:

Title: Re: In the mood for a film
Post by: Khare on 14 June 2011, 20:50: I've seen that film a million billion times and although it's awesome I feel like watching something a bit newer (with the exception of saving private ryan). I may leave independence day for tomorrow night :smiley:

Any of them, they're all epic. I have to say the original UK voice over release is my fave but that's probably because that's the version I grew up with on VHS.

You might enjoy London Boulevard then..

Quite a good british gangster film..
Title: Re: In the mood for a film
Post by: RandomJord on 15 June 2011, 18:01: Yeah saw that at the cinema, was good, shame it was out at the same time as The Kings Speech an the Fighter, reckon it wouldve done a lot better if it was delayed slightly
Title: Re: In the mood for a film
Post by: nige_s on 15 June 2011, 18:24: Tracker - is very good, best thing Ray Winston has done in a long, long time.

Girl with a Dragon Tattoo - the sequels are as good though

Let the right one in - Original is great and oddly so is the US remake (let me in)

Invictus

Beneath Hill 60 - Aussie WW1 film in the trenches/mines very good

Kite Runner

I Love You Phillip Morris - Was much better than I expected, what makes it more remarkable is that its based on a true story.

children of men is also awesome but wore me out - only film i've been glued to the whole time.
Title: Re: In the mood for a film
Post by: Jack3559 on 15 June 2011, 23:31: Parts of Children of Men were filmed close to my house. Amazing film. There's a few REALLY long one camera shots which must have been an absolute nightmare to get right, think the scenes in question won awards though, so well worth it.
Title: Re: In the mood for a film
Post by: nige_s on 16 June 2011, 00:06: Sorry but Children of Men is nothing more than an ITV movie, Clive Owen has more wood grain than Keanu Reeves.

Post by: Jimp on 16 June 2011, 10:27: On the topic of movies, can anyone recommend some good martial arts movies? I've seen some of the classics like Drunken Master and some modern ones like Hero, Ong Bak and House of Flying Daggers. A movie with some kind of plot would help :grin:
If anyone hasn't seen Hero it's well worth checking out. Seriously well crafted shots throughout and the plot is damn good for a martial arts movie. The fights are stunning. Some might not be as intense as other movies but WOW are the beautifully shot :shocked:

Operation condor is a good old Jackie Chan one.

More modern ones... Warrior King/The Protector is a good one.

Fearless is also quite good.

But as already stated, unleashed and Kung Fu hustle FTW.

Post by: thai-wronghorse on 16 June 2011, 13:27: Unleashed is pretty good, Jet Li basically plays a mussled dog. Ha
