Re: films we just saw

Saw Centurion today, and I have to go with the prevailing opinion that it is Marshall's weakest film to date. While it's certainly no disaster, it feels as though the heart of the film might have been lost in an over tight edit. There's very little character meat to make you care about the fates of...

Re: films we just saw

More thoughts on Centurion,much is being made about Noel Clarke in this and even i thought that he may just look too polished to play a soldier of Rome,but he did it well and i wouldnt have minded him surviving,even though he was supposedly torn to pieces but we never saw it? i wonder if that scene ...

Re: films we just saw

Centurion Its the weakest and least enjoyable of Neil Marshalls films and its painful to say so,for its 15 rating its very tame,compared to say Daybreakers which is also 15 but really at the top end of the rating. Its weakness reflects in its distribution,with very little promotion either to get th...

Re: what dvds are we buying?

The Sinking Of Japan its no coincidence that TSOJ is released the same week as 2012 sitting in the back of some bargain dvd shelves,looking like an asylum pictures release,can be found a blockbusting disaster epic from japan all for the price of £3-£3.99,drama and dialogue laden it is but there are...

Re: films we just saw

Shutter Island promises a lot if you see the trailer,but if you can manage to stay awake or care to follow it over the next 2 hours all you have is a film which has some twists which you can see coming,but is overall a clumsy affair,the flashbacks and dream sequences have been done much better in ot...
