Capt Pat

Taken is way over rated by a lot of people on here. I thought it was really a bad spirited movie. A decent action movie in some ways a bit like Punisher. At least Punisher is more honest about what it is.

Paranormal activity......will scare the b'jesus out of alot of people. 7.5/10

Couldn't agree more. thought it was well worth the watching.


Is it in the cinemas yet?

Advanced screenings tonight, think it's on general release next week. Was made in 2007 for 15,000 dollars...mad!!I saw it on the project free tv website, perfect quality.

I watched it on watch-movies.net. Good quality streaming on one of the links.

Taken is good to watch but you know what to expect.  Its been done loads of times before with slight tweeks from Charlie Bronson in Death Wish, Seagal in Hard To Kill, your man Thomas Jane in the Punisher and even Vin Diesel in A Man Apart.

Would really recommend Capturing the Friedmans ...... available in Chartbusters. A documentary about a deplorable crime that really makes you think. Visits the crime from both sides and leaves it up to you to draw your own conclusions.

Definitely not a Will Ferrell type flick but will imo blow your mind.

Watched Role Models tonight in the house. Not a bad wee film. Not the film I was expecting, but there was a few good wee laughs in it :)
The wee lad is worth about two laughs. Once you past the fact that a wee lad is cursing for the sake of cursing, there is very little humour in this film.
Crap, really.


You said you didn't like Zach and Miri, so your taste isn't up to much.


watched zach and miri last nite and thought it was dung!

the premise for the film is good and expected better but since every other word was a curse and very few one liners, i was very disappointed!
I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..

I have seen 2012 and can confirm that it is one of the worst films I have ever watched. Terrible and the special effects/last minute escapes are just tiresome.

pintsofguinness

I love all those disaster films though...independence day, the day after tomorrow etc etc
hmmm

What's so terrible about it arthur?  It's at 6.5 on imdb.
