How ironic. Just posted this in general chat:

"'A River Runs Through It' is on Film 4 tonight at 635 (and 735 on Film 4+1). Basically, nothing much happens really, but it's a magical, magical film. The story of two brothers growing up. My second favourite film after Star Wars."

I have watched a couple of films this week.

Three and Out. I knew it was supposed to be bad, but nothing prepared me for just how awful it actually is. Obviously the subject matter is something I have an interest in (which may mean that some of the glaring plot holes are likely to piss me off even more!) and they did film a scene at my work (the Liverpool Lime Street scene was actually shot on platform 3 at London Marylebone) but I cannot recommend it to anybody. Avoid avoid avoid avoid.

Zombieland on the other hand is absolutely fantastic. One of the best comedies I have seen in a long time.

Can anyone recommend me a good horror?

[rec] - a corking Spanish 'zombie' flick - v v good

or

The Orphanage - a chiller more than a horror but a sublime piece of film.

Very good indeed. I also liked Paranormal actrivity, as I mentioned earlier in this thread. :nod:

Wouldn't surprise me. The budget for it must have been very low. I think there were 4 actors and I think they only used a hand camera. No real effects either. Sounds like a good film? :P

I saw "Brothers" last night.

Pretty good film, I'd recommend it.

However, if you've seen the trailer, don't bother, because it basically gives away the entire story. I was expecting a twist as surely they couldn't tell the whole story in the trailer?

Nope.

I imagine it's one of those films that if you watch it knowing nothing about it, it would make it 10 times better.
