What film have you just watched?
Bit like the 'What book are you reading now?' thread ... but films!
Ok, plenty of threads about best/worst films etc etc but this is one to simply put down what you've just watched and whether you'd recommend it or not ... which is great for those of you like me who visit the cinema rarely (on account of being an old tw@t and often napping mid film!) and prefer their movies delivered by DVD.
So, this old rentalist has just watched a Will Smiff double bill; second time round for 'I Am legend' which I put off for some time as I was told it was a septic version of '28 Days Later' ... but actually makes the British film look like a bad remake cross between 'Dawn Of The Dead' and an Ealing Comedy.
And the second Smiffy was 'Seven Pounds' which I thought was quite excellent ... very thought provoking.
So give us some titles for our 'lovefilm.com' wish lists!

Just saw Terminator Salvation at the cinema.
Typical Hollywood kind of action flick. Don't expect anything too intriguing and it's fine - lots of bangs etc. Passable.

Just watched 'The Hurt Locker'. Good movie about septic EOD which builds tension as it goes....

I watched Tropic Thunder yesterday. It wasn't as good as I'd hoped. It was watchable, but not laugh a minute funny.
Excerpt from The Four Slappers of the Apocalypse.
And when I had opened the fourth beer, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and her that sat on him was the wife, and Hell followed with her......

"Crossing Over" with Harrison Ford. Excellent. Not your usual septic shoot em up movie either.

During its history British forces or forces with a British mandate have invaded at some point of time all but 22 of the world's countries, or nine out of ten of all countries.
See it's true, join the Army, visit interesting and exotic places, and.......... wait for the politicians to fuck up your day.

The Jazz Singer, with Al Jolson. It's amazing! They can now put sound into movies.

Went to see transformers 2 with the kids on sunday - absolutely sh1te and it lasted 2 and a half hours. The only saving grace was Megan Fox and some other ultra-babe who transforms into a rapist, but seriously, a very shit movie, even worse than the first one, if you can believe that.
Watched kill Bill 1 and 2 last week again - brilliant!ChristopherRobin

Re: What film have you just watched?
watched "Green Street Hooligans 2" last night. didn't realise it was the sequel to "green street" (the shite one with the hobbit in it). set in prison, lots of violence.
not as complete shite as i was expecting, but not a patch on many other football hooligan films (e.g. ID, football factory).
