Heard some good things about Slumdog Millionaire, I'll check it out.

 

[Mart]

Yes Man looks funny...

Have you read the book? Recommended. I can't vouch for the film though.

Gran Torino - 9/10

Really good movie again, worth the hype I'd heard about it. Loads of funny moments, loads of touching moments (not like that Joe), and well worth a watch.

Just watched it, cracking film.

Slumdog Millionaire - 9/10

What a fucking brilliant story. Really clever writing, a great adventure and so much that happens that it keeps you wanting to know what happens next. Loved it.

The book is brilliant. I really like Danny Wallace

The film just takes the notion of saying 'Yes' all of the time. Thats about it.

I did like the film though had some funny bits - not as funny as I thought it would be, but it was a nice film.

Also the girl he falls in love with is lovely! - I would watch it again just for her

Zooey Deschanel is her name

Just watched Ghost Town with Ricky Gervais aswell and thats a nice film, with some really funny moments.

 

[Nick Cave]

Nope not a DW fan Mart, I'll give it a go though...

She was in the Happening as well, reminds me of Katy Perry...

Defiance - 8.5/10

Brilliant film. Really good story and all round enjoyable film. Well worth a watch for those still on the fence about this one.

 

[Coopz]

I watch a lot of films and here are my thoughts

I watched Awake last night and ill give it 8/10

started slow but you can see why as the film went on, those who like a few twists will like this

 

[mjsmith2k]

Yeah definitely worth a watch.

The Wrestler - 8/10 - Brilliant film!

Gran Torino - 7/10 - Very good. Another brilliant Clint Eastwood film.

Ghost Town

7.5/10

First part was rather dull, then it began to get a bit better.

 

[Tim7]

Quality Joe!

 

[Milanista]

I like these kinds of movies where society is in trouble. Was done quite well, but lacked character development. Lots of big names in it.

10/10

Beautiful film. I think it will win an oscar.

All film and no music makes Paul a dull boy .
