Any movie buffs or movie goers?

Quadrophenia - a definite classic.

I've got to check out that Tim Roth film. Looks great.

When I think of British classics I think of the old Ealing Studios comedies that I discovered when I was in college. I still love those films.

Made in Britain is very good indeed.

In case you didn't recognise him, that's a very young Ray Winstone in Scum

Yeah, when I said 'classics' I guess I meant cult classics! lol

I love Ealing Comedies too. I think I'll re-watch some of them as soon as my container arrives... starting with The Ladykillers!

You're right. I didn't even notice.

Good choice.

Another classic. I just rewatched all three seasons of "Secret Army".

Paranormal Activity 3 was more of the same. I'd say it was more intense than the others.

The PA movies are either hit or miss with people, and I happen to like them.

If you've seen the first two, or even just the first one...this is a great follow up. It ties a lot of the story together and you see the origin of the "paranormal activity".

Great guilty pleasure movie!

10 minute short film...

The German

I have not seen Love the Beast, but upon seeing this here, I just added it to my instant queue on Netflix. I will be watching it this weekend.

Look forward to your review.

I'm currently 20 minutes into Paranormal Activity 3.

Wife just sent me to check on a noise! Hahahaha! Hiding out in the garage for a few to build up her trepidation!

Evil but funny.

I just saw Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and it was fantastic. Classic story, with a brilliant 70's London (principally) backdrop and sublime acting from the entire star cast.

It won't be to everyone's taste as it is not a high octane flick, rather it is a simmering British spy thriller with a clear focus on the superb acting and not special effects.

I'm planning on seeing this one, as I think it looks good. Thanks for the good review, confirms my impression and makes me want to see it even more.

Went to see Chronicle with some friends. So good felt like Akira, the anime movie, so I am biased on my review. The ending left a lot open never talked a bout finding out about what gave them power till the end. Also it felt like they spent all the special effects budget on the flying scenes and not a lot on anything else. Chronicle is a mock-umentary so if you hated cloverfield then don't watch this.


All in all I will be buying this on Blu-ray but i gave it a 7/10 maybe less if you don't know about Akira.

the grey. a rental at best.

I saw the trailer for this last night, which started off promising and then went all

Thanks for confirming my suspicions, I'll skip this one

Glad to see that as well. We ALMOST went and watched the grey tonight but decided to have an extra drink at the restaurant.

I couldn't bring myself to see it because the original BBC miniseries with Alec Guinness was just superb and very true to the novel. I'm not sure they can do the story justice in 2 hours. If you say it's well acted I just might give it a chance.

The BBC's Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Smiley's People are both just brilliant.

/\ I wondered if anybody knew this had been put on film before.

 

[Redwolf]

DRIVE.......... it was a good movie, different than what I was expecting.

Has "The Raid" been released yet? I've been waiting for it.

According to IMDB, the USA release was January 20th at the Sundance Film Festival, but it doesn't say anything about a general release date?

I should be able to see it here from March 22nd
