Watched doubt when it was on a couple of weeks back, really enjoyed it.

Anyone else watch "the tree of life"? Good lord I'd sooner put my hand in a vice for two hours than be put through that again, worst film I've seen in a while

Watched The Descendants last night, very disappointed.

Good acting by Clooney alright but not much to the plot, not a patch on Little Miss Sunshine which had the same sort of feel about it.

5/10 at push.

Watched the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (Bond version), have to say I preferred the Swedish version.

+1

Got to see Forrest Gump in the home. It's about a really stupid man. He does a lot of things but is as thick as champ. I think it would have been too difficult to play that Gump lad from a normal starting position so I'd imagine the actor actually was stupid and the crew just asked him mad things and allowed him to ramble on ridiculously about pure shyte. Then they added CGI (or special effects) to put meat on the bones of his mad tales. He did none of those things.

Watched The Grey last night... entertaining enough fair, kept you on edge most of the time...

Nearly 24 hours later and I'm still not sure about that ending...

It's hard to care about any of Ewan McGregor's film to be fair.

Dunno if I'd go that far - Young Adam - with McGregor, Peter Mullan & Tilda Swinton wasn't bad.

Ah ya might like it, don't see what the Oscar fuss is about. The scenery is class but that's about it. How it was nominated over Drive is incredible.

I got about 20 minutes into it and nearly cried it was that messed up.  Still in shock at what the f**k was going on there.

Anyone watch Ghost Writer last night? If you didnt, word of advice, dont.
Tripe.
Quite possibly one of the worst films I've ever seen.

Agree totally - watched the 1st 90 minutes of it & went to bed, not really caring how it ended.

Auch I dunno about that, Trainspotting is still one of my favourite films and The Island wasnt bad either.
The Star Wars stuff was pish mind.

[Archie Mitchell]

Trainspotting is probably the only decent film McGregor has been in. Last film I seen him in was when I watched a bit of I Love You Phillip Morris. Had to turn it off it was that bad, and the fact it was about 2 queers.

Watched The Descendents last night. Average enough film, but was a good performance from Clooney. 6.5/10

[Rawhide]

Watched 'As Good As It Gets' at the weekend with Jack Nicoholson and Helen Hunt. A very good movie in which both are excellent.

The ending after the credits??

[The Iceman]

Watched the final Harry Potter and was very disappointed. I've never read the books but I have watched all the films. Part I of the Deathly Hollows was bad, and part II wasn't any better.
5 out of 10.

Part one was awful, but part two I really enjoyed.
