not as complete shite as i was expecting, but not a patch on many other football hooligan films (e.g. ID, football factory).

Ah, ID. That brings back many wrong memories from a troubled A1, remember that CR? Shadwell Army.

Anyway, back on thread. Last night I watched Ordinary Decent Criminal with Kevin Spacey. Bizarre but quite good.

Thought it was an ok film, not brilliant but certainly wacky enough to make me grin!

Also watched 'Ghost Town' the other week and that was quite amusing ... again, not laugh a minute but good enough to enjoy.

Gran Torino...absolute class. Good twist at the end, when Clint...no, that might spoil it for others who have yet to view.

Watched "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" last night on Sky 1... reminded me how good viewing the old Spaghetti Westerns were... favourite clip where Blondie (Clint E) has the hang man's rope in his rifle sights about to cut down 'Shorty Larson' when the greasy Gringo Tuco interrupts the proceedings by sticking a Colt .45 in Blondie's ear ... Blondie: "And Shorty?" - Tuco shakes his greasy head - Shorty is hung and Blondie replies: "Sorry, Shorty!" :D Class!

Just watched Taken with Liam Neeson. Was expecting it too be pretty cack but wasn't a bad film. Worth a look.

Watched Borat one night-p*ss funny, then caught The Hitcher with Rutger Hauer the night after, hadn't seen it in ages but still good, I haven't seen the Sean Bean update, is it any good?

Very Good! the 'scene' with the truck, chains and the unfortunate bod chained up, in the Sean Bean version is as you would expect from a modern take on it... the chick is class in the film, especially in the final prison van escape scene
