going to see contagion this afternoon , anyone seen it yet ?
looks very good and has the added bonus of Marion Cotillard in it
Huge let-down IMO. A plot that has been done many times before and a lot better before too. Slow moving pace that never quite picks up. Great cast that should have warranted a good script, but failed to.
took the kids to see Tintin (not 3D)...............pretty good but I'm not a fan of these new fangled CGI (?) films.............either make it with actors or make it a cartoon !!
Off to see Tintin this p.m. with my friend and her nephew, I am looking forward to it (the 2d not 3d version as 3d generally brings on a blinding headache for poor old me)
. You will enjoy it. I watched it in 2d also and I was pleasently surprised .

I thinks kids aged 8-15 will love it.
I understand it was made with actors and then 'cartooned over' if you know what I mean (Harry). It was great I thought, inoffensive, old fashioned and visually superb. Spielberg is one clever Trevor
Just wondered if anyone has seen the film Downfall. I have just got a copy on DVD.
Have been told it is a brilliant film and on research of Amazon reviews 156 out of 179 have given it a 5 star review. 11 reviews have given 4 star. As far as reviews go, this must be an exceptionally good film.

The end of the 3rd Reich film? .. it's been on TV several times and is well worth watching

Snap!
It was just poorly constructed. I never really cared enough about whether or not the main characters lived or died. They didn't invoke any empathetic sense of panic, tension or whatever. Technically, in my view it was also flawed. With such a huge scale epidemic and millions of dead project (like 1918/9 Spanish Pandemic), I would have thought they would have move much quicker to clinical trials on humans than really on the soppy scientist who tried it on herself.
What happened to Elliot Gould btw? Sank without trace in the film - very odd.
That could be very good but it looks rather too depressing. Hasn't anyone got any recommendations for another good (British?) film that won't make me feel like I'm watching Charlton in 08/09.

It is a difficult watch at times but it's far from depressing. in fact it has the opposite affect when you see it.
I'm sorry but I just don't want to watch a film about domestic violence. I watched a film about incest (not The Addams Family) a few months ago and I just don't see the point in watching something that's so depressing.

Your loss. This is sure to be up for plenty of awards in the new year.

Edit: Just noticed it's not released until Dec 9th. How come you've seen it?
Caught up with Attack the Block. Well done but unhappy about the "heroes". Calling the tower block "Wyndham Towers" was clever.
And age of heroes. Should have known a danny dyer/sean bean film would be terrible and it was
I saw this too and I just wanted the creatures to kill everyone of those yoots .
Watched this last night. Undoubtedly one of the worst films I have ever seen. Appalling.
