I saw Sexy Beast for the first time the other day. Ben Kingsley is a nutter in that. It's brill.

Anything with Adam Sandler in always makes me laugh, Happy Gilmore and Little Nicky are two of his best.

Cool Runnings is brilliant too,
The Naked Gun and Police Academy films

oh and the Green Mile

And of course Titanic

Punch Drunk Love is a great film. He's done some cack though.

i think i've just vomited my entire inner body at the mere thought of Titanic...men have only watched that because of their other halves surely?

yes, eraser head, very odd...

recently, i was pleasantly surprised at Casino Royale, despite various little cornball lines being thrown out...plus eva green is lovely...

didnt mind kingdom under heaven, that was pretty good, dead man's shoes is superb...brilliant british film that ISNT a rom/com...

Cheers Marvell ill check sexy beast out. A trip to blockbuster is in order now unless its on the sky box the bit where you can order movies for 24 hours or something like that.

I use an internet rental scheme called Love Film. It's ace.

Saw BRAZIL for the umpteenth time the other day. I love Terry Gilliam's work... he's a mentalist!

That sounds like one of those video shops with the blacked out windows and brown paper bags. Not that I know anything about them you understand

I second the Love film comment, they are a great company

I've seen recently:

An Inconvienient Truth

Not a well made film in a cinematography sense but compelling and very scary!

Hot Fuzz

Pegg, Frost, Guns and West Country folk.....enough said

Lady Vengence

Korean action/revenge flick from maybe my favourite director of the moment. Also made Oldboy and Sympathy for Mr. Vengence. Please watch Oldboy before Hollywood remake it and spoil it as they have with the Japanese Horror genre

Ive seen the love film advertised on the internet but im always wary of things like that on the internet incase there a scam or something but love film obviously isnt if you use it. I might check out there site.

Is Tideland any good?

ah gillliam's a genius...time bandits...fisher king, the man from la mancha...i love the bit in brazil with the face lift....

he's like a director version of philip k. dick isnt he...and he's got that wierd king arthur fixation too hasnt he...

Hot Fuzz - Funny as hell! So many 'shaun of the dead' in-jokes too


Hannibal Rising - Not a patch on the book, but emotionally, a very moving film i felt. There is scene when Hannibal is trying to save his baby sister in the middle of a warzone and there is ammunition exploding all around them. Its very tense and sad.

The Illusionist - I got this on retail dvd from America. A romance drama with great plot twists. Fans of magic history will love seeing some historic effects (even if CG)
