Anyone seen 7 Psycopaths yet? I'm a big fan of McDonagh's and really looking forward to seeing it.

Yip. Was a let down but i know others who liked it. Not in the same league as In Bruges.

Pretty much nails most reviews I have seen.

Saw it last Sunday. Enjoyed "In Bruges", but this was just a load of self-indulgent crap - the 1st 30 mins or so were v promising, then it all nosedived till the end.

My last 2 films have been "Gambit" & "7 Psychopaths" & a right pair of turkeys they were.

Resolution for 2013 - pick a good film to see!

[The Iceman]

Seen MIB 3 - was disappointed now in fairness although so good one liners. Not the worst way to pass the evening.
Watched Brave with the kids and wasnt great either. there hasn't been anything too epic IMO since the likes of Toy Story...

The Hobbit got a very poor review in the Irish Times today. Basically saying unless you're an absolute die hard fan of the book you'll find it very slow

Watched Cache/Hidden the last day on the recommendations of this thread. Decent enough, interesting.

Looked back to see if Oldboy had been mentioned on this thread, couldn't find it anywhere. Well its well worth a look. Some ending

Pretty sure Oldboy got "an airing" on the board. Agree totally, the ending is by far one of the most shocking I have seen.

Saw Joe Killer on dvd last night. Not too impressed.

Been waiting to see a trailer for Place Beyond The Pines for near a year, still no sign of one.  Looking forward to it.

Not surprising since they've split a fairly slim book into 3 almost 3 hour films. They must have a ton of padding in there.

Yep mentioned it couple years ago probably at this stage. Sympathy for Mr Vengeance and Sympathy for Lady Vengeance are two more by the same director, but not as good. Remake being made by Spike Lee due for release next year apparently.

There are some seriously good Korean films out there.

There's lots of stuff that were in the appendices of the Lord of the Rings that make their way into the film

[Armaghgeddon]

Just watched remember me, I thought it was really good, unexpected twist.
