Starts off good and does what it says - it is frightening. But then it starts getting silly. By the end you will probably just ask yourself what it was all about and what the reason for it was?! I still don't know!

Atonement instead if you can be bothered.

You'd like Atonement Tony! There's a bit where the lead character is in France making his way to the ships to get back to England. It was apparently filmed in one take with about 3000 extras. A good insight into WWII.
1408 was ok, that's all. John Cussack is always good value in films. Samual Jackson isn't really in it much. It does have a good twist. ;)

Do you find that picture attractive? It'd be like knobbing a skeleton!

Read alot of reviews on it after seeing the trailer and most are very good so i will let you know tomorrow..#

Agreed re Cusack...

Shame he is so picky with his roles....But then again that is what makes most of his films tops..

Disagree mate..She looked very very nice in Domino...

You seen that film???

She wasn't too too thin in that one.. Huge difference between being too skinny and having a nice slimbody mate...

No, not seen Domino. Gave it a complete body swerve to be honest. Sounded like the sort of shite that would appeal to the lowest common denominator. :sorry:

You mean blokes who do not trudge off to the flicks to watch chick flicks with their Mrs. Then sadly trumpet about em as if it is the norm...

Yep dead right mate...Based on a true story though...A bit like Titanic...Yet better more action and good to watch...Oh yeah and it isn't a chick flick...

CHEERS..

1408... Bizarre, strange not quite sure whether i liked it or not...Interesting..

Know what you mean about 1408, bizarre strange etc! Alot of Stephen King adaptations seem to come out like this. I think it's hard for directors to to do in a film what King can do in a book. A good performance from JC though.
As for the chick flicks....I can't say I was looking forward to Atonement but I went and I enjoyed it. Give it a chance Tony you might like it!:sorry::ban::jerry:
