John Wick was very close. The other films that were so close were The Edukators and Big Momma's House. I wonder what the film that actually breaks me will be like. See how long you can make it through The Ridiculous 6. That was my Vietnam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I loved The Devil's Double too! Should have been a bigger hit than it was IMO. Although the very end of the movie - the bit with the escape - doesn't make very much sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive - very slick, well acted and yet hilariously predictable. 8/10 The Devil's Double - superb, really enjoyed it. Stunning lead performance. 10/10 The Rack Pack - a TV movie certainly but a well acted and directed one. 9/10. Your right all three of them are well worth a watch. I watched the Rack Pack on Sunday and my wife can't stand snooker but she thought it was great. Like you said really well acted and it was really funny in parts.

V01 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 The title alone piqued my interest, then you ruined it mentioning snooker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooper should be a much bigger actor than he is IMO, unfortunately for him he's been in some proper shit blockbusters, hopefully Warcraft will buck that trend but I doubt it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Only ever walked out on one film at the cinema in my life. Pain & Gain. **** awful. Fetid faecal slop of a film. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted January 20, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 20, 2016 Just got round to seeing Foxcatcher. Steve Carrell put in an impressive performance as deluded US sportsfan millionaire Randy Lerner. Errr, sorry, John DuPont. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Casino Royale was better than any of the Bourne films, imo. Although you could argue it was good because it took a page out of Bourne's book. Since then I think Bond has regressed back to why I grew to dislike it. Gimmicky films more about gadgets and women than any real story or action. I still like them, but they're nothing special 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted January 21, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2016 Enjoyable. Definitely worth a watch if you're a fan of Kevin Bacon as he puts in a good performance here, as do the two young actors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Talking of joke posters, I keep forgetting to post the deadpool true love never dies Valentine's Day poster, basically makes it look like a romantic film starring RR, fair play to them it's brilliant I'll do it when I'm back on my laptop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted January 21, 2016 Moderator Share Posted January 21, 2016 Bill and Ted is actually decent and I quite enjoyed Constantine . He really ain't as bad as people say. IMO he really is. I've nothing against the guy and the films he's in are often good despite him not because of him. But watching him act can be painful. He's a terrible actor People are mistaking his performances with the quality of the films he's in. He's like the anti-Denzel, where Washington is often the best thing in a very mediocre overall film.

villa4europe Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I've only ever walked out of napoleon dynamite Can close watching Bruno but I'd read it had a great finale, it didn't, so I wish I had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I've never walked out of a film , usually cause I'm armed with a huge bucket of popcorn in the same way that you give a monkey a banana to distract it whilst you stick a vaccination needle in it's arm ... I even stayed up til 2 am the other day watching some dreadful Steven Segal film as I happened to catch the first 5 minutes and then wanted to see how it ended (predictably , being the answer !!) 2 people walked out of Hateful 8 when I watched it last week , but they were OAP's and had probably thought they were going to Bingo or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
