Watch Film Four, available on Freeview?

I watched "The Warrior" a night or two ago, which was deeply affecting.

Hi Love!

I just saw a couple of movies that I really liked: "Munich" (by Steven Spielberg) and "Beyond the Sea" (the story of singer Bobby Darin's life). I also really liked the Woody Allen movie "Match Point" -- a different kind of movie from him.

Let us know what you see and how you liked them! :-6

Pirates of the Carribbean 2 - fabulous film!

Only problem is it's like watching Back to the Future 2 when it first came out! :wah:

What kind of films do you like?

Koan

Excellent question!

That's the right place to start, isn't it? :-6

I'm sad...



I'll watch anything :wah:

I'll second Munich then.

And add:

Inside Man

Constant Gardener

Cinderella Man

Comedy:

Scary Movie 4 (if you like parodies)

Team America (if you like South Park)

Sky High was cute, but only if you've ever felt like the underdog

Ohy hunni go and see The Lake House

Im dying to see it as it sounds amazing...

and it has some eye candy too!!!!!:-4

I love The Lake House. I didn't realize Netflicks had that already. I thought it was coming out later this month.

That's the one you have to start with. If The Lake House doesn't make you stand up and cheer for love, nothing will.

thanks guys n gals...



i fancy the lake house... not sure its out in uk yet... im gonna have a look now :-4 :-4

I'll just add my twopence worth to the debate.

I love all three Final Destination movies, loads of laughs and gore. The Shawshank Redempton and The Green Mile are great if you want a good cry and laugh. I love both the Bourne Identity and the Bourne Supremacy. My favourite action hero at the moment is Jason Statham so I love him in both Transporter films. I love all Disney movies (big kid at heart). I also love true life films so I'm looking for copies of Bitter Blood with Harry Hamlin & Kelly McGillis and Fatal Vision with Gary Cole.

TCM has some great films on it. My favourite British gangster films are The Long Good Friday with Bob Hoskins (never had a better role) and Get Carter (the original not the crappy Stallone attempt) with Michael Caine. I love watching Scramouche with Stewart Granger (this has the longest filmed sword fight in it). Good horrors to watch are the Saw series of films, the Ring 1 & 2 and the Grudge 1 & 2. If you go to Yahoo movie site they will show the latest trailers of movies. I also love all the film versions of the Harry Potter films and the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Oh yes and two good weepy films are Brian's Song with James Caan and The Miracle Worker about a blind, deaf & dumb child with Patty Duke Astin & Anne Bancroft. I can't watch many films like Ghost because I always bawl my eyes out having lost my first husband but they're great for relieving grief & tension!

Sorry to bang on but I'm a real movie nut!
