If you like acoustic guitars check out this scene where the kid gets his hands on a guitar for the very first time.

august rush

Was looking at that the other day!I love guitars.

It gets a 7.5 outta 10 on IMDB.com which means it must be a good show!
Whoever votes on that site are harder to please with movies than you Woof and thats saying something! Ya fussy fecker!

Im gonna give it a watch soon!

Let me give these people some advice: do not go and pay to see this film. It's atrocious. The actual trailer is 100 times more interesting than the actual film, which I believe to be one of the worst I've seen in a long, long time. Mr Shyamlalan needs to reitre and that's as truthful as I can put it. F*cking awful film.

Have to agree that this is a film to avoid.  I'm a big MKS fan--even his last two films that many other people didn't rate--but this one was just poor.  The story's an interesting idea but it never gets developed and it ends up feeling like a quirky version of every other apocalyptic event movie you've seen recently (I Am Legend, War of the Worlds, etc.).  Marky Mark is wasted in this one as well.

Seen it last night and it was a waste of 90 minutes,a total letdown.
There was so much more he could have put into it and failed.Total dissapointment and in all honesty just Fu*king boring!

I was very disappointed with Diary. I just thought the acting was atrocious at times, very cheesy and as a result spoiled a lot of the tension. It's meant to be as if a zombie invasion were really taking place. For a start, in  a lot of the situations the person behind the camera would logically do the first thing that would come to most people's minds and drop the f*cking thing to help someone who's being attacked. I thought it was just stupid sometimes. There were a few creepy moments, but the script and Romero's direction let it down. I think it's safe to say that after Land and Diary, that Romero has been exposed for what he is: an overrated director that's been left behind in the low budget era of the 70's and 80's. Day was a triumph because of it's special effects and decent dialog, but that's mainly thanks to Tom Savini, who worked on the amazing (and still to this day unrivaled) special effects.

If you want to watch a first-person-perspective zombie film, then [REC] shows Romero how it should have been done. It's a bit on the short side, but it's more immersive and tensive than Diary ever tried to be.

I will look out for REC!

ive been watching Anal amor, borrowed it off andy g (has a birthday share or something with the star of it)

Now, this film isn't for everyone, most people will think its the most infantile film ever made, but as stoner movies go, the H&K films are now up there with Cheech and Chong... add a little Neil Patrick Harris and if you liekd loved the first film then you'll like this one. (who wants to see that indiana jones/superhero )

Daws the first scene Kuma is sitting on the toilet cracked me up reminded me of when Finch was on the toilet in American Pie
