Yeah it is, just a short story. Guy gets some one around to now his lawn, bit weird. The lawnmower man takes his clothes off and roams around the lawn behind his seemingly possessed lawnmower. Customer freaks of course tries to call the cops, gets umm mowed..<br><br>
Nothing like the shit 90's flick at all<br><br>
The dark half was another great book that wasn't nearly as good as a movie -

<p>Excellent film. Will have to see that again<br><br>
On a completely different genre I saw Grimsby last night. Some very funny and disgusting scenes mixed with a hell of alot of unfunny crap. The elephant ejaculation scene was just wrong.</p>

<p>Gonna watch that tonight. SBC has made a career out of some genuine laughs with some scenes that are pretty fucked up even for our generations de-sensitized eyes so not surprised at your summary. The Dictator was pretty good humour as I recall.</p> -
<p>Did someone mention Triple 9 on this thread and say it was better than the reviews? In my head someone did and I watched and it was.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cracker cast, they probably went one scene too far though (the car scene with Woody for those who have seen it). Kate Winslet was funny, talking about how she was the unattractive one between her and her sister while looking pretty hot, but turns out Gal Gadot is her sister ... so fair enough.</p>

<p>6.5 officers down out of 10.</p> -
<p>Went with the missus to see the Warcraft movie on Sunday afternoon.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not nearly as bad as the critics made it out to be - good harmless fun with pretty great CGI.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]I was hoping for a better resolution, instead the movie was pretty much 2 hour set up for the sequel. First movie I can recall that the main character who was doing the voice over was killed off[/spoiler]</p>
<p>
Very faithful in look and feel to World of Warcraft game, but not overtly to the detriment of the film</p> -
<p>I have just moved Forst Gump into my Top Ten of all time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have been watching it again over the past week and boy oh boy do I enjoy it. If I remember correctly, I didn't like it the first ime I saw it.</p> -
<p>I fucking hate that movie</p>
-
<p>Love it, might have to introduce TR Jnr to Forest!</p>

You must be a heartless and loveless 'being' if you hate Forest Gump

Finally saw American Sniper. Not what I expected, and much better then I thought it would be. I was expecting, having not read much about it that it would be a lot of "America is great!", but it didn't focus on the politics but more the personal experience of going to war and the effect that has on people. Bradley Cooper was great, his best performance by far.

<p>I can't see why someone wouldn't like that movie. It's very rewatchable. I still think it is disappointing it won best picture ahead of Pulp Fiction and the Shawshank Redemption though.</p> -

<p>I read the book.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And it was pretty much "U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!" on repeat, along with a bit of "It was tough on my wife but she put up with it because 'MURICA!"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So the film sounds like a nice alternative. </p> -
<p>I cant recall if it was that kind of vibe in the film, I know some arent (Zero Dark Thirty) whereas others fit the hoo-rah type (13 Hours, Secret Soldiers of Benghazi)</p>
-
<p>The film was pretty understated in it's hung-ho, rah, rah America side of things. Much more on a personal level really. The only hung-ho bits I reckon were on his rationalising why he joined up in the first place. Like a few others I was not queuing up to see this film but was glad that I did see it in the end. At least I know what a power drill is for now.</p>
