PaulC Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Anybody seen the The Brittany Murphy Story, I thought it was a truly dreadful biopic and the girl that played her looked or acted nothing like her. An insult to a fine actress who tragedly died so young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Bridge of Spies was very good except being a bit sentimental and not putting subtitles on German parts Credit to Spielberg for casting Bono daughter though no idea if that was intentional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I thought it was pretty much universally known that Jupiter Ascending is pants, why do people keep watching it? Directed by Matrix brothers. Mila Kunis looking mighty fine in the trailer. Anyway, I really enjoyed it. It's a fun space romp, doesn't make 100% sense but it's forgivable in this type of film. And yes, threw in some Hitchhikers Guide to Galaxy references for fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Started watching Philomena last night, and shut it off after 20 minutes. Too dreary. And the whole Irish Laundry girls thing boils my blood. The Catholic church can **** off, evil sickos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honesty it was never going to be what the original plot was, it's not possible to do at the moment and it all gets so daft they'd never make a movie of it even if they could. It's more taking some of the themes, so its less Civil War and seemingly more Cap Goes Rogue (ooerr) and Iron Man is Working for The Man. Interesting they show very little of the additional cast. Once you shove everyone in, it looks a little over stuffed and makes Cap and Co taking on Stark and Co look ridiculous. Very underwhelmed by the trailer, but like you it's what I expected given the previous that has come before it. They should have held off on Civil War and made it the next big multi-phase project after the Infinity Stones saga. I feel like they're wasting a really interesting and rich story with plenty of meaningful issues and opportunities to add a bit of depth and social commentary to a superhero movie.

hogso Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Hungry Games finale was decent, as hard hitting as you could expect for an adaptation of a 'YA' novel, and didn't pull many punches in it's demonstration of the brutality of war. The sewer scene was the highlight, had a very Aliens-y vibe and although you knew the jump scare was coming, it was affective when it did given the build up, and the ensuing chaos was fun. The ending (not the prologue) felt a bit rushed, may have been due to PSH's death, where his intended but unrecorded scenes were patched up as well as they could have been, I guess. Not a bad series, more enjoyable than say Hobbit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted December 1, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2015 I haven't seen the last Hunger Games film (and probably won't), but from the trailer it looked completely different to the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted December 1, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2015 Im not a fan, but I felt both of the final Hunger Games films were awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer1 Posted December 1, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted December 1, 2015 I enjoyed the first one - the dialogue is some of the worst committed to film, but I suppose that wasn't really the selling point. Thought the 2nd movie was poor though so I haven't bothered with them since. I do think J.Lawrence is a talented actor though - As long as she's careful with her scripts she could have a superb career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Saw the Visit the other night, first M Night Shewaddyman film since The Village as it's not my thing at all - my partner has a thing for found footage films sadly. That said, and amid absolutely no expectations whatsoever, it was surprisingly not-awful. The second half at least, and once I got past how much I loathed the child leads as well. ( What a pretentious 15 year old girl, and a spectacularly obnoxious 13 year old boy ). It probably reads like I didn't enjoy the film that much, well I didn't really but I was also not so annoyed as to turn it off, I was happy to see it to it's conclusion.

A very moving story, briliantly acted by Judy Dench, won't go into the catholic thing, but all I will say is my late Aunty was a nun and she was the kindest person I have ever known, so not all like those nuns in Ireland.

Of course not, and my vitriol is directed more at the institution that allowed it to happen. The nuns were following instructions from the archdiocese.

tonyh29 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I watched a rather bad 3 Musketeers on Film 4 last night , I really should have switched off at the first sight of a flying ship .. but Milla Jovovich was in it and I'd watch her read a dictionary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
