I watched without doubt the worst movie I have ever seen last week - 'The Happening'... shocking acting, script & direction

+1
+2

Can't recall having seen worse.  Nobody should waste that hour and a half of their life with this.

The Iceman

Watched "The Way Back" at the weekend there. Film wasnt fantastic by any means but the story was great and a decent cast. Based on a true story and was crazy to think anyone went through that....

Watched Super 8 last night. There is a DVD quality torrent of it on piratebay.
I thought it was a decent movie and enjoyed it alot.

The Adjustment Bureau: A boring love story refereed by CIA angels in funny hats. Utter shite.

True Grit:
Pretty good. Couple of strong central characters and and solid story.

Wasted On The Young:
Australian thriller. Different, cool and very very good.

Watched Due Date at the weekend....pure rubbish.

ONeill

Fell asleep during Super 8. Even though its charm was meant to be in the familiarity and nod to ET and the Goonies, it justy bored me for that same reason.

Cars 2 was middlin. Fell asleep as well.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Watched X-men First Class tonight and really enjoyed it.
Haven't watched any of the rest of them,are they worth watching?

they're not the worst, funnily my favourite was the last one 'Wolverine Origins' or something like that (you'd prob need to watch the others first though).
Another very underrated superhero film was Fantastic 4 and the follow up - much better than many of the others out there imo.

Don Johnson

Saw Due Date a while back, some very good moments but overall I was disappointed with it. Think I had bigger hopes for Todd Phillips, Galifanakis and Downey Jr (who I thought was great in Tropic Thunder).

Watched Intermission again there last night, great cast, great one liners, great film.

Have two DVDs coming today (hopefully) which I have read good reviews for: Exam and Eden Lake. Hopefully get them watched tonight.

Dinny Breen

Eden Lake is a surprisingly good horror/thriller movie. Not for the squeamish.

Fair enough....comedy films are a bit like that, others could find it hilarious no doubt. The only real funny part for me was when they were trying to sleep in the car....

Capt Pat

Devils Double is an interesting tale of Uday Hussein and his double. Sex drugs rock n roll and violence feature prominently. It is a true story.

I thought it was very good and give it 8 out of 10. Imdb only award 6.7 out of 10.
