Overrated Movies?

[Tubey]

I actually agree with you cause Edith bowmen kept wangin on about how good it was, and I'm 99% sure she's got dangley bits

lol

If you look here...

A page full of blokes banging on about how great it is, and then one girl at the bottom saying it's terrible. Sums it up really.

For me, it's a fantastic movie, simply because it does what it does really well, and isn't stuck up itself. It's just dozens upon dozens of brilliantly delivered one liners.

I have the Anchorman Soundboard on my phone actually, just because listening alone to the one liners makes me laugh

Black Hawk Down was awful.

Black Hawk Down was awful.

Terrible.

Helicopter gets shot down > loads of Khaki all over the shop > thousands of 'natives' shot dead > credits role.

I dont think I've missed anything out.

I'm being dead serious, I have not enjoyed a single Ridley Scott film and to make matters worse that fat drunken Aussie took the main role!

Ya what lad? Gladiator was fuggin well decent! All about opinions I guess, but you made me shake my head a little there

Then again, I personally love the big epics like Last Samurai, Gladiator, Troy etc. They get overhyped because of the budget involved making them.

Because they just wake up, and there's just a tiger in the bathroom.

But not even that, the bit where the chinese man goes tooodalloooo moothherrrfocckoooooorrrrrrrrrss makes it the best film ever.

I got epic drunk in canada and went to a strip club, and later on the way to the toilet and came face to face with a siberian tiger.

True story.

If I recall, I got up 7am our time for the flight and ended up going to bed in the morning at something like 8-9 am their time. 27 hours later.

You could make a movie about that night out. Cheesy chips with jalapeneos, Canadian teacher, American college girls, Tiger, cold tea (after hours beer), getting a lift of some drunken idiot who kerbs it and abandons his car in the middle of town. Stopping a taxi to vomit out the door.


Anyway on topic:

Atonement

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to ToffeeMark again.

You missed the fact that the first half hour of the film is the reason why "America, Fcuk Yeah" was written.

Pathetic.

Black Hawk Down was probably the most racist Hollywood movie I've seen in a long time. It was like a remake of colonial classic Zulu.

Haha. I second that. Although I did quite like Snatch, despite Vinnie Jones being in it.


In Bruges was awesome, too, although that was technically Irish (Irish lead, Irish writer, Irish director) so I don't think that counts.

 

[heatmeiser]

Did I say Scarface yet?

If not then SCARFACE.

It's rubbish. And I can prove it in tests.

In Bruge was tremendous.
