It was about the sheriff and the world changing around him and him realising that he was too old to deal with it anymore wasn't it? All the other stuff was a side story about how drugs had transformed his sleepy border town and the money had corrupted people .

yea, i got that theme. But if he's the protagonist, then jesus they spend a lot of the movie hiding him. I could have sworn Josh Brolin was the protagonist, because i'm pretty sure Bardem is the antagonist. But from what you're saying, time is the antagonist. 
 
That's fucking stupid.

The bok is excellent , Tommy Lee is pretty uch the main character and it's not just time he's up against. The sort of crimes he would have associated with big cities are now right on his doorstep being a border town .

Guardians Of the Galaxy. Complete let down. the trailer makes it look it's not too far off the realms of other Marvel movies, but turns out it's not even close. Far more of a modern day star wars than anything else. Has nothing on the likes of Iron Man, Avengers, Captain American etc. Chris Pratt is perfectly cast but that is literaly it. I'd give it a solid 1.5/10.

Hooroo

I went into that movie with low expectations and came out happy. Had to see what everyone was crapping on about with Groot.

I feel for anyone who can't appreciate the simple joy of a raccoon firing a machine gun.

I'm not 100% sure MR isn't having a wee troll. Guardians was one of the best movies last year and the trailer made it look completely like a 'space' film.
 
I would stop watching a film that turned out to be a 1.5/10.

Mrs Virgil is that you ??

Not trolling in the slightest. Hated it. Different strokes and all that.
 
Actually, saw American Sniper a week or so a go too. That was awesome.

Ae, although I can't believe you kept watching it. TBF I kept watching Mulholland Drive but that was only because I wanted to see Naomi Watts nudity in the lesbian scene and that dick Lynch made the DVD without chapters!
 
Guardians is probably the second best Marvel movie after the Avengers for me.

Rancid Schnitzel

I'll take the psycho raccoon over Robert Downey Jr any day. The CGI tree was also a far better actor than Chris Hemsworth.

MajorRage

I'd take the first Iron Man anyday over any other Marvel movie. Avengers was good, thoroughly enjoyed that too.
 
Nepia - you are reading far too much into my rating.

I finally got round to watching Fury last night. Thought is was a good film but fell someway short of all the hype. Strange that whilst I enjoyed the film it left me a little disappointed.
 
Oh and Shia LaBouef is still a cock.

Paekakboyz

Enjoyed Fury but the end sequence pretty much covered angle on [spoiler]How not to finish off a tank and its crew! Fucks sake that part just threw out all the realism they'd worked into the film imo[/spoiler]
 
I thought Shia was good.

it seems unrealistic until you read how Audie Murphy won his congressional medal of honour by doing much the same as they did but by himself with artillery backing him up <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.badassoftheweek.com/murphy.html'>http://www.badassoftheweek.com/murphy.html</a> <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audie_Murphy'>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audie_Murphy</a>
 
I know Shia LaBouef seems to be a cock even by hollywood standards but he impressed me with that movie.

I watched the Shia LaBouef pisstake video again the day. Cracks me up every time, maybe he isn't as bad as it seems.... maybe.

To Hell and Back was one of my favourite war movies as a kid. Quite bonkers that he starred in a movie about himself!
