The Town (2010): Second time seeing this film. Like it a lot. Jeremy Renner is at his menacing (hilarious) best and Jon Hamm as a mean Fed really works. You have an excellent all round cast. Rebecca Hall and Blake Lively are very good in this too. 8/10

Only God Forgives (2013): Had all the ingredients to be very good but the premise and story was ridiculous. Still quite entertaining in parts. 6/10

Still great. And is this the best, and deepest, cast in film history?

Oldman
Cumberbatch
Firth
Hardy
Jones
Strong
Hinds
Graham
McBurney
Hurt
Lloyd-Pack

That is RIDICULOUS

Pulp Fiction

I tried. I lasted 50 minutes. I got bored.

Good flick. Postlethwaite's last ever movie.

The Oceans movies bat pretty deep.
Pulp Fiction

It's terribly over rated. Throw on Jackie Brown instead.

World's Greatest Dad. One of Robin Williams movies that I hadn't seen yet. It was OK. The scene though where
he hangs his son
was a bit uncomfortable given what happened IRL.
Not a Williams movie that I'd be rushing to see again.

Not bad but the thin red line is pretty untouchable

Sean Penn
Adrien Brody
Jim Caviezel
Ben Chaplin
George Clooney
John Cusack
Woody Harrelson
Elias Koteas
Nick Nolte
John C. Reilly
John Travolta
Jared Leto
Miranda Otto
Thomas Jane


Not to mention Bill Pullman, Lukas Haas, and Mickey Rourke were all in the original filming but ended up on the cutting room floor.

Everyone worth their salt wanted in on a Terence Malick film. Leo, Ed Norton, Johnny Depp, Philip Seymour Hoffman, De niro, and a bunch of others all got the chop

Very much the case. It wasn't horrible, just a nothing movie.
I love Death Proof, it's a great homage to the genre including the dialogue. I liked that QT also bought the sheriff back from KB, the car chase was awesome, the sound track was great, nice chicks etc.

DUEL. Sales rep driving to see a client to secure an account becomes the focus of a maniacal truck driver and his rig. Never seeing the driver the old rig is a character in it's own right. The sales rep, Mr Mann must defeat the rig. Man V Beast.

Hadn't seen this in years, prolly 30? Anyway my wife put it on and i really enjoyed it. Some of the shots, like the opening sequence beginning with the car driver reversing out of his car garage is pretty darn cool.

Awesome movie. As an owner of a valiant (pretty much identical to the movie car) can confirm i can barely outrun a snail let alone a truck

Haha, i was telling my missus, she's from the states. It's like a VG with VIP tailights lol.
My bro in law has a vf vip with a warmed up 318 in it. No truck would be catching that, supernatural or not.

My VC with a slant 6. Not so much

Lucy is among the worst films I've ever seen.
