Rodders Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Herzog's Even Dwarves Started Small (1970) Initially: but on reflection, and after reading other reviews, bleak existentialist critique of human madness and destruction, as seen through a microcosm cast of little people in an asylum. Not sure which part was most bizarre, the cannibal chickens, the crucifixation parade of the monkey or the assault on the blind midgets. Some memorable and disturbing scenes, and I think it's a great film. Not one to watch on a first date, I will say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pooligan Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 The Thomas Crown Affair (1968) I never tire of watching this really good film. Steve McQueen as usual was brilliant in the role he played, i can not recall ever watching a film in which he was in that i did not enjoy 8/10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Was only thinking today, I'd not seen a Pooligan film review in a while! Great film to review too, I'm also a fan of Steve McQueen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Finished watching Raid: Redemption. Overrated to be honest. Good, but not great. Some of the fight scenes were a bit comical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 For a similar genre of film, Elite Force 2 was much much better. Still have to see part 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 just watched Blitz again. an underrated film and definitely one of Jason Statham best films since Snatch. Probably helped with a good cast around him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 With Crank being the absolute worst. Well, I never did see Crank 2: High Voltage. That might be worse than the first film in the franchise, but it would have to do some work to be as bad as that garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Crank 2 is infinitely worse, as hard as that may be to believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 I actually quite like Jason Statham. I thought he was great in Snatch and I liked The Transporter and even Revolver. He's done some shite though, but he's not exactly alone in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 21, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2014 No need to be so harsh on Stevo, he's trying his best. Nah I'm not. I'm phoning it in. This is my best work: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnie Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 For a similar genre of film, Elite Force 2 was much much better. Still have to see part 1. Elite force?? Do you mean elite squad 2? If so I concur, although Raid Redemption is absolutely brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Just crossed another one off of the 'films I probably ought to have watched by now' list; Dirty Harry. Awesome, though I had an unfortunate moment of breaking my own immersion when, during Scorpio's first lines of dialogue, I remarked loudly that "holy shit, that's Garak the Cardassian barber from Deep Space Nine". Then I had one of those sobering, float-above-your-own-head-and-watch moments where I realised that I'd just said the words "Garak the Cardassian barber from Deep Space Nine" out loud to myself in an empty room and part of me died inside forever. True story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 (edited) What Garak did another role other than the one in DS9? Don't think i'd recognise him without the makeup i have seen Dirty Harry a few times i did not know it was Garak He was a tailor btw not a barber Edited August 21, 2014 by AshVilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing is on youtube and off the back of this review - I think I'll be taking a gander. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
