Movie recommendations

[Tony Baloney]

seen BOLT.

it was alrite! (possible quote for the DVD cover)

I seen Bolt this evening there with the wee lad, and I thought it was brilliant! Very slick, funny and cute. The opening action scenes were superb I thought.

opening scenes were very good led you to believe that this was a super dog movie thou didnt it. then them clever writers pulled the rug out from under your feet. it was good.

hi norf before the showing of the film did it show a short Cars film ? thought it was brilliant

It did. Tokyo Mater.
My wee lad is Cars on the brain. I mean... he absoloutely loves it. I had read that there was a short Mater cartoon pre the film which is half the reason I went. He loved it, and so did his da. It was so slick, bright, clever and funny it would be hard to dislike it.
They have actually made four of those short cartoons, Tokyo Mater, Daredevil Mater, Matador Mater, and Firetruck Mater. The other three are on the disney channel from last week, and I'd say Tokyo is the pick of them. In addition Cars 2 is in the cinema next year.

I can't believe I am talking glowingly about Mater on an adult website!!

Mater reminds me of Ricey. But that's for another thread!

seen "The Happening" last night.  Wasn't great but passed the time.  Worth a look for any fans - definitely a little different than the previous efforts....

Is that the Mrk Walhberg one. I.E the film that was so shit it was actaully enjoyable to watch?

[Canalman]

If it is indeed the Wahlberg flick, imo it is one terrible film.

I saw a good film late one night on Channel 4. The Diary of a Young Poisoner. It's a dark comedy based on a real person. Not a bad wee film.

That baseball flick with Charlie Sheen in it??

[Our Nail Loney]

Benicio Del Toro is an absolute legend... Watched a couple of his films this last week

21 Grams - Not about drugs which I originally thought, but a great moving story, the whole film is layered so it keeps you thinking and guessing the whole time, Sean Penn and Naomi Watts are in this as well, a great cast and a great show

Traffic - This one IS about drugs, thought it was ok just... Liked bits of it but wuoldn't watch again

WRONG. the film u r thinking of is Major League also a great baseball comedy. you see Charlie Sheen's latest work on paramount... an American Show called two and a half men. Charlie Stars and Directs this hit comedy. But ur stil wrong ONL

It's not a movie, but does anyone else like or watch Criminal Minds?  I'm addicted.

In the process of downloading the first series and have watched the first couple of episodes - excellent show!

We're on series 4 episode 15, shown last night in canada (I think) downloaded there this evening and watched.
Brillant show, it's now earned it's place with the west wing and frasier. 

I've downloaded Without a trace series 1-3 so far, it's good too but not as good as criminal minds.
I'm downloading bones now as well.

Any other good police/decetive shows out there?

[tyrone86]

Any other good police/decetive shows out there?

The Wire, absolutely brilliant.  

The only problem is that the first series comes in MKV format and you have to download a few codec's to get it to run right.

[pintsofguinness]

Is it the wire or the shield that has the bad baldy cop in it?  I dont like whichever one that is. 

What I dont like about some of these police shows that they're just glorified soaps - look at the way the bill went. (and I use to love that show)
