Leicester Ram Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Lost in Translation- 7.5/10 Interesting and I loved the way it was shot/directed. Also starts with a close up of Scarlett Johanson's arse, so can't complain. Safety Not Guaranteed- 7.5/10 Really appreciated this one actually, wasn't expecting anything from it but it was expertly made. Established the main character extremely well inside the first 30 seconds, which is quite a feat when you consider the Star Wars never really established some of their main characters in around 7/8 hours of film. Kept twisting and turning, one of those films you keep thinking about for the next few days. Also re-watched the original Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back last weekend, both 10/10's. I'd say Empire is up there as possibly the greatest sequel of all time considering what it had to live up to + fan hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safety Not Guaranteed is indeed a brilliant film.Well made,great story and characters. just a film that won't be seen by many because there was no hype or much in the way of advertisement for it. I will watch it again and mark it again.Think I gave it 10/10 .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73jSnAs7mq8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomad Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I watched Frank yesterday. The story was quite quirky, bordering on absurd at times, but despite this quirky nature, was extremely heartfelt and thought provoking. There were great performances from Maggie Gyllenhall and Dohmnal Gleeson and, in particular, Michael Fassbender who steals the show as Frank. The great acting, top soundtrack and general unique feel of the story make this a must see. 10/10. http://youtu.be/-catC4tBVyY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 2012 If you got a million people to review this piece of crap and got them to give marks out of a hundred, I doubt that the total would exceed the title of the film. I finally got to see it tonight, and my brain melted. If you have never seen this piece of $hit, please, for the love of god, keep it that way. This is probably the worst film ever made, and I can say that having seen Wild Women Of Wonga, Plan 9 From Outer Space AND Godzilla v The Smog Monster. Please - never, EVER watch this piece of garbage. watched it - so you don't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmericanRam Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Dracula:Untold.Great storyline and good action scenes.As a Dracula enthusiast I was very much satisfied. 9.5/10. Some bad reviews for it,but I really enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomad Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Olympus Has Fallen: Terrible film. Gerard Butler spends the movie attempting an American accent loaded with terrible action movie cliches while single handedly taking out the North Korean army that takes over the White House. Meanwhile, Aaron Eckhart and Morgan Freeman spend the entire movie with a "think of the pay cheque" look in their eyes. Saving grace, the action and dialogue is so bad it kind of becomes a comedy! 2/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomad Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Easy A: Emma Stone and a bunch of other 20 somethings pretend to be high school students whilst moaning about how hard life is. A few funny moments from the "high-schoolers" and a few more from the main characters parents. Not the greatest film but watchable enough as background noise. 5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Dracula:Untold.Great storyline and good action scenes.As a Dracula enthusiast I was very much satisfied. 9.5/10. Some bad reviews for it,but I really enjoyed it. I picked up the Dracula legacy collection on DVD from Sainsbury's a few days ago, less than a tenner for 5 great movies. That's Halloween viewing sorted out! :) Olympus Has Fallen: Terrible film.
