What was the last film you watched?

[bertie]

Watched Prometheus this weekend. hmm. It was alright. THought the plot was very fragile in parts though.

6/10

this, pretty much to a T - 6/10 might be a tad generous

[hungrymark]

Groundhog Day - which was just as awesome as the last 10 times I watched it.

How apt

The Thing (2011) 6.5/10 - Was expecting/hoping for so much...average at best and i have a dislike for CG gore, looks pants.

I watched it the other night. I was expecting the worst as the 80's version is one of my favourite films. Wasn't toooooo bad but you're right about the CGI gore - it wasn't any better than the non-cgi stuff from 30 years ago.

melancholia - didnt really know anything about the movie before i watched other than the fact that my ma likes it - definitely the best way to watch it - actually thought it was pretty cool despite only 2.5 stars on lovefilm

I liked that one too. The ending is beautiful.

Drive

Just as good as the first time I watched it


Fair Game

Not bad

[fatherjack]

Dark Shadows. Johnny Depp, Eva Green, Michelle Pfeiffer, etc in a Tim Burton film.

Not bad, but maybe not entirely sure what it wanted to be - a comedy or a romantic movie? Definitely not a rom-com.

6/10, maybe 7 - some decent funnies in the first half.

Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Original subtitled Swedish version.

Very, very good. Much more up my street than the Hollywood stuff I normally put myself through in the cinema.

I would very much like to go out with Noomi Rapace.

Totally agree on every front.

I knew NOTHING about the storyline etc when I watched this, and I was actually shocked by some of it.
Excellent film, though. Some cracking acting in it...and when was the last time you said that about a film?!

not a film but i have been watching lots of star trek voyager recently - at the start of the series i thought that i wouldnt have any of the voyager crew in my fantasy star trek crew but i might actually have the emh as the chief medical officer because all the other chief medical officers are a bit lame (apart from maybe bones) and - more importantly - tuvok is now definitely my favourite chief security officer - he is awesomely cool - i didnt remember him being cool when it was on telly but he is - if i could have worf and odo and tuvok i would be i cant so im sticking with tuvok

Janeway FTW!!!

Voyager used to be my fav star trek series..starts off very wooden but there are some really good seasons

Voyager, like all "modern" Treks, didn't get good til halfway through season 3, but once it got there it was brilliant.

I still think it's a great shame they killed Enterprise just as the writers were getting the hang of it.

Voyager *never* got good. It has a couple of decent episodes, but over the whole 7 seasons or whatever it was it never rose above a resounding "meh". Janeway was dire. The EMH was quite a cool character, to be fair, but thats about it.

Enterprise was, as they (occasionally) say up here, pure gantin'.

The Original Series was the best, closely followed by TNG and DS9, with Voyager the runt of the litter and Enterprise as the weird uncle who nobody wants to invite round at Christmas.

You should read the books. The film was pretty decent (and I've heard surprisingly good things about the Daniel Craig version too) but the whole thing works much better on the page---the detail etc in the book really adds to it.
