The Rum Diary , Johnny Depp once again in a movie from a Hunter S Thompson novel, perhaps not great but I nevertheless enjoyed it. PMSL at the scene where Depp and his mate are driving the car with no front seat.

Contagion. Good movie and genuinely disturbing. Watch if you dare.

i watched Drive last night and really wish i hadn't wasted the time. i know this has received all sorts of excellent reviews but i thought it was awful - trying too hard to achieve a david lynch feel but completely failing, some decent songs in the soundtrack but really badly used, a plot that's been rehashed a 1000 times and stereotypical characters acting as wooden as i've seen for a long time.

Went the pictures to see the woman in black . 5 of us all adults and all sh1tting ourselves , proper scary stuff. For those of you old enough it's a proper throw back to the hammer house of horrors stuff. It's all in the music and the build up and the tension and the what's coming next. No blood , no gore , no anal raping with chainsaws . Just your imagination and your senses . BOSS FILM .
UP THE PURPS !!!

Watched this week.

Latest offering from Clint Eastwood starring Leonardo Di Caprio. "J Edgar" a piecemeal account of J Edgar Hoover who ran the FBI for over 40 years. Good performance from Di Caprio but story wise far from satisfying.

As the movie drew to a close found myself thinking "this is a really long movie", checked the run time expecting to see 3 hours plus, it was 2 hours and a couple of minutes !!!

Given the material for the story it could have been great, instead I just found it tedious.

Anyone seen Drive yet? I just got into the soundtrack today and everyone has been raving about it. Might give it a download.

Not a bad movie Tub, but tbh not that memorable, in fact I started to watch it a few nights back and then realized I'd already seen it earlier this year.

As for the soundtrack ? Haven't a clue mate, couldn't name yer one tune  :(

:D

I thought Drive was pretty decent.

I watched Real Steal a couple weeks ago, and it wasn't bad at all. A little corny at times, but not bad.

I saw Contagion and liked that one as well.

Chronicle was one I really wanted to see, and I wasn't disappointed it was really decent.

Watched a movie called Double.  it wasn't bad, but not one of the better films I've seen.  A bit slow for what it's supposed to be.

I also watched Warrior because I saw so many people on here say good things about it.  I'm not into UFC or anything, but it was really good.

The Grey

In Alaska, an oil drilling team struggle to survive after a plane crash strands them in the wild. Hunting the humans are a pack of wolves who see them as intruders.

Not bad at all, liam neeson is good as always.................its a bit like jaws..............but for wolves !
