Movie recommendations

Can't recommend the Hurt Locker enough lads. Great movie.

Looking to watch a good film tonight, nothing too heavy just to pass the time?  Anyone got a good shout?

Also saw Red Dawn last night, very good movie if maybe some of the battle scenes are a little far fetched... Just saw that a remark is in the pipes due out next year which will be very interesting

Anyone see District 9 yet?

Wha? Has Red Dawn been remade, cos surely you're not talking about the early 80s original with Patrick Swayze and Charlie Sheen?

Yea saw the 80's Red Dawn last night, bit of a cult flick - enjoyable.

Anyone see District 9 yet?

Yes, 8.6 out of 10 on imdb. I however ultimately fell asleep during it, there may have been otheer reasons for that. It was quite good film though, a unique idea, the lead actor was the directors high school freind who was not a professional actor.

My professional opinion is go see Hurt Locker instead.

Saw it tonight. Interesting film, but nowhere as good as it is hyped up to be. Enjoyable all the same, but takes a long time to get going.

District 9, good idea, could have been really good, but ultimately fell well short.  Worth watching, but i'd wait for the dvd, presume there'll be more of them and they could potentially be better.

Personally I really enjoyed District 9, became confusing in parts but the main exchanges between the prawn and Wikus were engaging. The story behind the story (District 6) was an intersting take but could have been better exploited. Better than Inglorious Basterds anyday though.

seen that 500 days of summer......chick flicks not really my thing and id be cynical at the best of times but came out pleasantly suprised.......and a good soundtrack is always an added bonus.

also, matthew mcconaughey isn't in it

[Dinny Breen]

I'd recommend District 9, avoided the hype so had no expectations.. But as he'll be back in 3 years expect District 10 next summer....
