Raiders of the Lost Ark. A bit tedious TBH. I did wonder how they got away with certain scenes; e.g. Jones shooting the scimitar wielding Arab

Famously there was to be an epic fight between IJ and the scimitar weilding arab. The whole cast & crew had disentery at the time of filming, Ford felt terrible, wasn't up for filming action sequences and said, "Look, why don't I just shoot him?".

Err...that's 99.999% of all films, shirley?

Lately I've found that true of American films.

Enjoyed a lot of French, Spanish & Scandinavian films though.

Mrs Zep and I have for the first time in about 4 years an evening/night without any childen to put to bed etc.

We've been to the cinema for a non-children's film once in this entire time. Anything worth watching at the pictures this weekend?

Source Code. I liked it; Tim didn't.

I *loved* that film. Last watched a bad copy on VHS. Where did you get it?

They should have done a lot better than they did with that film.

The Wind that Shakes the Barley. Very good.

Liking that Film4 are showing a decent range of films at the moment. Wish they would reach back into their back catalogue though - when was the last time a Peter Greenaway film was on, for example.

Direktøren for det hele (The Boss of It All) - Lars von Trier. One of Mrs B's library rentals. She's moved on from British to assorted European, so I now have a French comedy to watch.

Tron Legacy. Finding out how many slugs will fit in my eye socket would have been only marginally less entertaining

Now you are sooooooo wrong, the bit with the ducati police chase was cool.

Did you edit the eye socket from she socket? As I was going to ask what a she socket was.

I watched Grand prix before that the death grand prix bbc 4 documentary.

Thats alright, thought my mind was playing tricks

The great escape.

Quite pedestrian by today's standards, but still a film worth watching.

Just watched Fast Five, ie Fast and the Furious 5: Rio Heist

If you like cars, street races, shit loads of action and some great one liners then this film is amazing. The whole film is one big testosterone fest with the stand out characters from the first few films with Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) put in for good measure.

Enema at the Gates: And it WAS a pile of shite. Jude Law was on auto-pilot and what could have been a half decent story was woefully let down by some half-hearted performances. At the end - and yes, I managed to stick it out - I didn't care who lived or died, but the Rachel Weisz "revival" was soooooo predictable...

Aces High. An excellent British made WW1 films more for the acting and storyline rather than the flying scenes - I'm no expert but there seemed to be a lot of Tiger Moths used!

Dogtooth - Greek dark comedy / drama. Very good. Very strange. I understand that it's up for an Oscar.

Saw this on film4 the other night. Beyond weird, but very good.

I went to see TT3D: Closer to the Edge last night.

The film starts by pinning you to your seat! It excited me, it made me laugh (and shed a tear) and tells a great story.

Next month, this opens

Thor last night. Has hunky chap for the ladies, Natalie Portman for the gents, (or vice versa), plus some great one-liners. Made much better by being next to my luvverly girlfriend.

Torslanda · « **Reply #1349 on:** 02 May, 2011, 05:13:52 pm »

The Usual Suspects. Sunday morning around 5 am. Insomnia is good sometimes.

Beautifully written, staged and acted, with some fantastic and memorable lines. It leaves you seething at Kevin Spacey's deception. Made for buttons too.
