Movie review thread...
-
Watched TDKR last night, enjoyed it.<br />
<br />
HAve similar (minor) issues as others.<br />
<br />
As to your comment RT;<br />
<br />
[spoiler]I agree with the issue over the person that managed to climb out as well, and if he had been listening properly, would have realised it wasnt Bane. Bane said he was an adult before he saw light, yet the only person to escape was a child. As it wasnt Bane, he should have realised this and tried to find out who, which would have saved alot of time and angst.<br />
<br />
I thought the Scarecrow (Cillian MUrphy) was killed in the Dark Knight, but was he only imprisoned?<br />
<br />
If Bruce Wayne/Batman has issues with guns, why do his vehicles have them? [/spoiler] -

To be fair.. Batman was getting his butt handed to him when Bane said that he didn't see the light til he was an adult.. <br />
<br />
My question is.. Did Catwoman know Bruce Wayne was Batman? Cos at times it seemed she knew and other times she didn't<br />

She found out when Bane called him Mr Wayne in front of her. -
The Millionaire Tour; Dominic Monaghan<br />
<br />
Decent flick about a con where people spot a well off mark at the airport and manipulate their way into the cab with them and then take them hostage and get them to withdraw money from ATM's all round a town, but all is not as it seems... -
Bernie - JAck Black, MAtthew McConaughy, guess this was supposed to be a black comedy, based on a True Story, a bit boring, although I usually cut true stories a wee bit more slack due to the content. Black is an Assistant Funeral director, and is loved by all the townsfolk in his lil' Texan town. Eventually he starts a relationship with an older wealthy widow, who no one really likes, and eventually kills her but keeps up the charade that she is still alive.<br />
<br />
Freelancers - Forest Whitaker, Robert De Niro, Fiddy Cent.<br />
<br />
Crime flick about a young cop (Fiddy) who gets drawn into the underworld of dirty cops due to De Niro's friedship with Fiddy's father who had been killed many years earlier. Decent enough watch. -
Saw the Bourne Legacy. Horribly miscast, a bit boring, retread of elements from the original three and it wasn't for Rachel Wiesz it would have been completely unwatchable.<br />
<br />
The money was up on the screen I guess, it did look nice. Dumb story too. -
Probably a few months late, but I watched The Avengers and really enjoyed it. Surprised by how powerful they made the Hulk. I thought he was going to be a bit crap, but I htought h was the coolest by the end.<br />
<br />
Loved it when he sideways punched Thor near the end. -

That was brilliantly timed, wasn't it!<br />
<br />
Is it still on at the Movies in Tauranga? -

It's the first movie that's done the Hulk right. The fear from the other Avengers of him losing it was perfect. -
Watched the Avengers last night.<br />
<br />
Loved the hulk. Especially the "puny god" bit. Thor "he's adopted" bit was also very funny. This movie didn't take it's self at all seriously and that worked really well.<br />
<br />
Captain America is probably the most boring character and that was a follow on from a not bad but still kind of boring character introduction film last year. <br />
<br />
Hawkeye was probably my next favourite.<br />
<br />
Loki was a great villain too.<br />
<br />
Also watched Battleship<br />
<br />
Not great but loud, action packed pop corn movie. More right with it than wrong. Just don't compare it to the game. -

Just when I've started to think you might have something worthwhile to say in most of your posts it all comes crashing down.<br />

<br />
Yeah I got bitch slapped at work for that as well. In my defense I was watching from the kitchen while cooking for guests. My kids loved it and what I saw looked good. -
Battleship is what you expect it to be....

Farking funny movie - random characters, fart and swearing jokes, Seth McFarlane funny as ever.<br />
<br />
Either your immature or your not when it comes to comedy. I'm very immature, and thus a big fan!<br />

I assume you have to watch the unedited version? I have seen trailers that seem to have been heavily adjusted for the prudish market. -

I saw a brief making of clip for that film. They were filming a scene in which they rival national navies were playing a soccer tournament. But this was no ordinary soccer tournament, it was hard core fighting soccer in which only the toughest prevailed. That was enough to convince me to never watch that film.<br />
<br />
Madagaskar 3: Hopefully the last. Jumped the shark/nuked the fridge in a big way.<br />
<br />
Headhunters: Not bad for a Norwegian flick but that hiding in the outdoor shitter scene was one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen. -
This is a real movie from 1987.<br />

THE LOST '80s MASTERPIECE OF TAEKWONDO ANTI-SANITY RETURNS TO THEATERS THIS NOV<br />
Tickets and theater listings here: http://bit.ly/RUdrOr<br />
<br />
The year is 1987. Motorcycle ninjas tighten their grip on Florida's narcotics trade, viciously annihilating anyone who dares move in on their turf. Multi-national martial arts rock band Dragon Sound have had enough, and embark on a roundhouse wreck-wave of crime-crushing justice. When not chasing beach bunnies or performing their hit song "Against the Ninja," Mark (kung-fu master/inspirational speaker Y.K. Kim) and the boys are kicking and chopping at the drug world's smelliest underbelly. It'll take every ounce of their blood and courage, but Dragon Sound can't stop until they've completely destroyed the dealers, the drunk bikers, the kill-crazy ninjas, the middle-aged thugs, the "stupid cocaine"...and the entire MIAMI CONNECTION!!![/quote] -
