    @mariner4life I gave up on it, wanted to like it, but wasnt even silly enough to be funny, and i like stupid sex inuendos as much as anyone.

    Took the kids to see the Batman Lego movie, some pretty funny shit in it, lost a bit of steam in the middle and toward the end, but otherwise decent flick!

    3.5 lego superheroes 5 dastardly villains

    @mariner4life I thought it was hilarious, our theatre was packed and everyone was cracking up, so that certainly helps. 3 produce aisles out of 5 orgies.

    So, Sausage Party. For those who saw it, what did you think?

    I'm not going to lie, foul mouthed vegetables and personal hygiene products made me laugh more than once.

    But, while it probably seemed like a great idea when they came up with it baked off their ass, putting together a feature-length movie took a lot more work, and there was a heap of filler. It honestly seemed like they were wasted while making it, not just during the writing. Some funny social commentary, and pretty funny moments, but some of the jokes ran too long.

    Again, a pass, 2.5 fucking jokes out of 5 middle east problems solved (hint: it's fucking)

    I'm not a fan of Rogan and was very skeptical but I liked it and thought there were enough gags to sustain a full movie. The scenes towards the end were absolutely hilarious

    One film I thought looked good but quickly went to poo was Central Intelligence. Stopped watching after about 40 minutes.

    Saw Antman last night. That was pretty good.

    I think it's bloody hard for a comedy to be funny for an entire 2 hours. Loads have a few good gags in between bits that drag.

    Aside from all time classics like Super Troopers, Top Secret, Flying High, Beverley Hills Cop etc.

    Also with Warchild being a kiwi Tr has a point.

    @Tim that's true, someone mentioned earlier that watched it more recently and it occurred to them how selfish Bodhi actually was. I agree with that after realising my son hadn't seen that cinematic masterpiece and watched it with him last year.

    Hara-kiri: Death of a Samurai

    Like a lot of Japanese cinema, subtle and hard to watch if you have limited time. Long silences, visual references I don't get.

    Apparently it was shot in 3D which would probably make it more awesome.

    2 out of 5 bamboo swords.

    It really is. Doesn't detract from Will Ferrell being hit and miss though.

    Mostly miss imho. Apparently is a comedic retelling of fight club.
