11thHour Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Fury - 8/10. Solid and tense throughout. Warm Bodies - 6.5/10. Decent zombie romcom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killienick Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 The Riot Club (4/10) Uses a sledgehammer to deliver a message that the blue bloods and aristocracy use power, wealth and privilege to steamroll through life and into positions of influence - who knew?!. Working and Middle class archetypes are the collateral damage in this remarkably one dimensional drama. Don't bother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 The Guest - I'm presuming the writers of this film imagined the ending of the film and then just built a story around that. Essentially Dan Stevens plays a former soldier who is basically a f**ked up Jason Bourne. The ending is just mental but how on Earth would a school allocate that much funds to a halloween party? 7/10 - just utter rubbish but good entertainment with some good one-liners. Well acted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did everyone die of a horrible disease in the end? that would be the only satisfactory ending. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilostmyself Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Inside Out- 8/10 The last 30 minutes really pulled it together for me once I realised how intelligent the film had been throughout. I was hoping for a film version of the Numbskulls though Bing bong- What can you say about the guy? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he posts the keys through the letterbox of a charity shop and one of the boys pipes up "but the homeless can't drive" which was the only funny line in the entire movie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Co.Down Hibee Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 The Wolfpack Documentary about a group of siblings that had been kept from the outside world by their father, the only knowledge they had of the world was through movies which they re-enacted in their apartment... fairly amazing stuff here ,a well made thought provoking piece of work that gives you a different twist on relatonships with movies, the bond the family has through them is shown well Perhaps not the absoloute best docu-film ever made but a very good one and I would advise anyone to give it a go, especially real movie buffs. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 The Man From U.N.C.L.E. Slick and stylish and entertaining. Well worth a watch. 7/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddly optomistic Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Agree with this. John Cena was pretty funny as well. Watched The Imposter last night. An amazing documentary on a boy who went missing aged 13 in texas in 1994. In 1997 he is "found" in Spain. You would think the title gives everything away but it doesn't, highly recommend 8.5/10 The Imposter has to be one of the creepiest things I've watched, on various levels. Absorbing viewing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absorbing viewing It was incredible, you think the story is just about this one guy pretending to be someone else but as it unravels you slowly switch from thinking the family were just overcome with grief to realising that there is something sinister behind their motives.

accies1874 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 The Babadook: Thought it was great. Really scary but not through dumbed down jump scares but rather just being very creepy and using some pretty horrible images. It was also very much grounded in reality which makes it easier to provide scares and also spoke for a wider topic rather than just making people scared. The quick cuts at times felt a bit distracting and I thought several characters were pretty useless but other than that I loved it. 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy boo Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Good Kill 8/10 Definitely an anti war film. Shows you how pointless the war on terrorism is. Hadn't heard of this. Downloaded and watched today.Tremendous 8/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
