Feeling a bit dismayed with the offerings at the cinema lately, nothing has really wet my whistle. Although i'm quite liking the look of this:

This thread needs more arty-farty and/or foreign cinema. Watched 'City of Men' last night, some sort of sequel to 'City of God'. Was okay, but then I remember thinking 'City of God' was just okay rather than the classic some make out.

Actually, it's not a sequel, but linked to a TV series spawned by 'City of God'.

Check out the Bob Marley documentary.

If you like CoG, Tropa De Elite (=Elite Suqad) is amazing, and even moreso the sequel.

I've seen Elite Squad. It was okay. Maybe I just don't get that excited by favela films...

Watched this today. And it's the most engrossing yet brutal i have seen in a long time.

Watched Animal Kingdom on Sat night - thought "ooh Guy Pierce - like his stuff..."

This however was dark and not suitable for a light Sat night... (also dull)

No way!! I thought it was fantastic, although a slow burner and pretty grim in places but defo worth the two hours.

What did you expect with danny dyer in it?

 

[W_I_C]

Straightheads... bleugh!

Not even the (albeit brief) glimpse of Gillian Anderson's snatch saved this one!!!

 

[xxVic-zeexx]

Really??????

I record all sorts of crap off freeview. I think I knew it was gonna be terrible, but watched it anyway. It's not everyday you get to see Gillian Anderson stick a rifle up someone's butt, although it was a more tasteful film than I was expecting. I think her and Dyer must be the most mis-matched screen couple ever.

Last night I watched 'Uzak' ('Distant'), Turkish film. It's one of those films where not much happens (one guy wanders around for ages, looking for a job and semi-stalking women he'll never chat up), not much is explained and leaves with you the feeling 'life is $h!t', but I quite liked it. Didn't realise Istanbul got so snowy!
