recently saw wrong turn 2... stay away, but some lovely norks in it

Thought the first was classic popcorn stuff.  I'll be watching that second one...

Just watched Rush Hour 3 on the plane.....

Utter rubbish...... Give this one a wide, wide berth.... :

[woof woof !]

Question for Jkop and Woof.

I ALWAYS WONDERED since I was a teenager anyway what would think a real soldier that had real battles about films like Platoon, Apocalypse now and this kind of films.

I guess nothing can compare to the adrenaline bursts, fear and all that that it's impossible to imagine if you haven't been there.

But do any war films actually grasp at least remotely some of the sensations of war? what do you think when you see those?

With regard to your last sentence

But do any war films actually grasp at least remotely some of the sensations of war? what do you think when you see those?

for the first part the answer is essentially NO. Occasionally however watching a well researcherd film like "Platoon" it's sometimes like receiving a postcard from a place you visited a long time ago, reminds you of where you where but not necessarily what was happening.

for the second part "what do I think" ? . I laugh at the funny stuff and don't dwell on the rest.

watching office space is like my life... if anyone has seen the film they will understand how i feel about fax machines and photo copiers

Class film dawson, maybe you should just get a baseball bat and go mental

Samir: No, not again. I... why does it say paper jam when there is no paper jam? I swear to God, one of these days, I just kick this piece of sh!t out the window.
Michael Bolton: You and me both, man. That thing is lucky I'm not armed.
Samir: Piece of sh!t.


genius!

Michael Bolton

Death Sentence starring Kevin Bacon.

Vengeance movie that poor script notwithstanding still manages to tick all the boxes with some well crafted action.  "Deathwish " with a dash of "Taxi Driver" as  Bacon goes all vigilante on a team of gang bangers. Not gonna win any Oscars but then it wasn't meant to. Break out the popcorn as some of society's scum get whats coming to them. 

Woofs Rating, 7/10

I watched 'Pink floyds The Wall' how strange that is. 

All my mates back in the day used to drop the old Acid and watch that movie .... Ha I didnt see the need for Acid, it was odd enough without it.

Watched Rise of the Footsoldier last night.

Its another Hooligan English movie but I was well impressed with it, and tracks the life of a minor thug in the 70s all the way up through the beginning of the dance scene to the major underground drug world of th mid 90s.

Very enjoyable and some top acting throughout.

8/10

Watched the film also good show, but was'nt there a film made ages ago called Essex Boys which was more aimed at the drug dealers ?

Yeah but this one was based on a true story, I thought it was much better than Essex boys.
