dribbler 6 Report post Posted January 28, 2009 American Gangster is brilliant! My fave gangster movie is The Departed! It has a quality because of Marty's direction but I thought personally that Di Caprio and Damon were cast the wrong way around. Nicholson was brilliant. My favourite gangster film has to be Casino.

Kopite Girl 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2009 It has a quality because of Marty's direction but I thought personally that Di Caprio and Damon were cast the wrong way around. Nicholson was brilliant. My favourite gangster film has to be Casino. Oh yes! Casino is possibly one of the best films made! I actually think that they got the parts just right. I would have expected Di Caprio to be the opposite to what he played and the same with Matt Damon, but it was refreshing to watch them act the way they did, without giving too much away. Reminded me a little of Face/Off - sort of like the same kind of concept, but still good nonetheless. I watched Glory the other day, an early Denzel Washington/Morgan Freeman/Matthew Broderick film and quite enjoyed it, albeit predictable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dribbler 6 Report post Posted February 4, 2009 A lot of people don't like that film but I agree with you, quite entertaining. I don't rate Depp, but it's a good film. Anyone who has dabbled with drugs will (presumably) find this film funny. Watched Run Fat Boy Run last weekend. Maybe you have to be a fan of Simon Pegg (which I am), but what a great, funny film. Priceless. Watched Iron Man as well, which I liked, bit then I'm easily pleased Love both of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jean Todt 4 Report post Posted February 5, 2009 Yeah i saw it Friday morning (12.01am show), I heard it was crap, so didn't have that high expectations, thus i liked it. Though Ford payed a lot to get their cars in that movie... I was disappointed because of the lack of gadgets in Quantum of Solace. For me number of cars don't matter. Well, Transporter 1 and Ronin were superb, but transporter 2 and 3 are Audi ads! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yet to see them, but I've already made up my mind that these 2 are gonna be great movies. No sarcasm, I'm pretty much sold anytime it's a superhero/ action sci-fi movie.

LabradoRacer 2 Report post Posted May 8, 2009 Watched "Harold & Kumar escape from Gitmo Bay". Hilarious & a laugh riot from start to end! The scene where the racist anti-terrorist guy looks at the panhead, er, sorry, the South Korean Harold, and says "What's wrong with his eyes? Is he handicapped?" had me laughing my a## off! Go, watch it for easy laffs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jenson_Rules 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2009 Ok I saw Wolverine, and it is utter tripe! I thought it was dreadfully boring. I love the X Men films, but thats because I like the mutants in them, and they are fun action films. This was just boring! The film I'm looking forward too most this year is Transformers. The rest of the 'summer blockbusters' are not really my cup of tea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jenson_Rules 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2009 Was in Mall of Emirates last night and decided to go to the cinema. We decided to watch Franklyn, on the basis that it looked like a horror film from the poster. Turns out it wasn't a horror film at all which was disappointing at first, however it is in actual fact a fantastically confusing film which all makes complete and wonderful sense in it's conclusion!

LabradoRacer 2 Report post Posted May 13, 2009 Saw "Dead Man". Simply outstanding movie. Great story, great acting all around (Johnny Depp is magnificient), great background score/music. It can be thought of as a dark humor movie in major parts. Never knew Jim Jarmusch made such good movies. You just have to see this movie. Also saw "Bolt". Think of it as "The Truman Show" extrapolated to a cute dog. Immensely enjoyable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
