Last Film You Watched

One of my faves. Could almost go on my 3 Fave Movies list. The start of Di Caprio being boss?
Either that or Gangs of New York, cant remember which came first but both were out at around the same time and both were boss. Though i prefer Catch Me If You Can out of the two.
 

Just put this on after your recommendation........

EDIT: Crackin' film. Nice one!

Horrible, horrible situation.

As soon as he says 'chinook' I knew what was coming......The gallows humour is V.good though. Can well believe it was really like that.
I just liked the way it goes tits up from something so routine, very realistic and is a true story.
 
Finally watched Gravity, having really rated Prisoner of Azkaban and Children of Men from the same director (both easy 9/10's).

Well...disappointed to be fair: cheesy dialogue, having to be reminded countless times of her humanity by way of deceased daughter (not a spoiler, no worries). Kubrick's 2001 never saw fit to push our emotional buttons with his characters that way, and that's often seen as one of the greatest films of all time so he had a point.

Clooney was annoying.


Gravity would've disappeared into the ether of forgotten movies were it not for the spectacular use of camera & FX work. Cuaron might've overdid some of the swinging/panning shots but they were still pretty frakkin' amazing. Wondering how much of the camera work was real and how much digitally-panned?

6/10 in the end, same as Under The Skin. And like that film, Gravity's still worth a watch, but ultimately is too up its own arse.
 
This evening:

Wayne's World (1992)

Describe my perfect movie almost to a tee.

Oh here it is in 1992 of all places.

So many quotable lines. And before Mike Myers got a bit annoying.

4.5 Championship Belts out of 5
 

I watched All This Mayhem, a documentary about the Pappas brothers who, in the 90's, were briefly the number 1 and 2 ranked skateboarders in the world. Then they discovered hard drugs and the story takes a familiar turn. Really interesting documentary, though I have no knowledge of skateboarding. I admire anyone who can be the best at anything in the world, and these lads were verifiably better than Hawk(who interestingly gets shredded by every interviewee) at one stage. It's a familiar narrative, particularly to footy fans, but it doesn't lose any of its impact regardless. 4 anally smuggled baggies out of 5

Gravity is a visual treat but a completely rubbish film. Amazing in 3D at the cinema but would never watch it on TV at home.
 
Holler! Ridin' with tha big dog!

Oh, Westworld.

Tim is not amused
