Anna B Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 'Greed' with Steve Coogen and David Mitchell. 8/10 A thinly veiled pastiche of the likes of businessman such as Phillip Green. Set in India, Coogan's character is a ruthless, avaricious, multi millionaire not averse to a bit of hard nosed exploitation as he wheels and deals in his busy business world while arranging a mega bucks party for his 60th birthday to restore his tarnished reputation. This is undercut with stories of the exploited workers on the receiving end of his methods. Quite funny, but with some very serious points to make. One of those films everybody should to watch.

wearysmith Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) 'Kill Bill 2' was on telly last night. First time I've watched it since I saw it at the flix all those years back. Didn't rate it then as it was a pale Part 2 compared to the brilliance of the first. Age must have mellowed me as I really enjoyed my 2nd viewing. Enough to give it an 8. Back in '04 I doubt I would have given it 3. Was hugely disappointed. Masden and Hannah were the stand out performances, but there's no denying Thurman was a serious looker and demanded attention every scene she was in. Gordon Liu's wispy-beard stroking was still as annoying though. Edited January 20 by wearysmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

echo beach Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Early Man the Aardman stop go animated film based on a football theme. Concludes with a match between Real Bronzio and The Primitives. Typical Nick Park production with plenty of humour and puns. Very enjoyable for young and old alike. 8/10. echo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockers rule Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Evita (1996) Madonna. I watched it years ago and been telling HTSBO she should watch it. We finally did and it stands the test of time. Excellent film 10/10 Surprised no-one else has given this film a rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
