| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Hannibal Out of all 4 Dr Lecter films this was the worst, it had no suspense, and I absolutely didn't care for the characters. And some parts of it were really disgusting - it was as if the director of the film wanted to see how disgusting they can make it. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Errr... The Cat and the Canary... Which version was this? The Paul Leni 1927 version? If so... yes, that's quite a film! I love the bit with the corridor... and you can see the influence of Leni's work on James Whale... nifty little oddity. Have you ever seen The Monster, with Lon Chaney, Sr.? It was directed by Roland West, and there are some strong similarities in handling between the two, a combination of horror/suspense and very broad comedy.... |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Well Borat is a sketch show character dragged out for 90 minutes. I get tired of hearing the same joke over and over and over and over again ![]() I saw The Number 23 which has been getting mixed reviews but I quite enjoyed it. Another of Jim Carrey's distinctly unfunny movies (erm, purposely unfunny, not like Ace Ventura 2 ) and is a sign that he's getting more into this "acting" lark. The movie itself was good, dark and atmospheric for the most part and it is fun to see how many "23" references you can spot in the background as the movie progresses. It's quite graphic at times so definitely deserves it's 15 (or R in America) rating and the ending is a bit of a letdown (they had 2 paths to follow and choose the 'dumb' one in my opinion) but it is certainly watchable up to that point. |

But that is precisely why I expected it to be better than it was. No idea what Mr Ross said, he mostly talks................ anyway! Recently, on the box, I saw Amelie, and Nirvana and Metropolis. | |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Ah, man, I didn't know Peter Jackson was the Santa guy! Ha, I'll have to look out for that when I watch it again (as I know I will, I love it ) |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Well, yeah - loads of people from work went to see it at the cinema when it first came out and were raving about it for ages (as well as continually talking in the stupid accent). I wasn't expecting a great deal which is why I waited for the DVD, but I still wanted to see what all the fuss was about - wish I hadn't bothered. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? I saw the Hindi movie The Guru. It was pretty good, but I still don't like Aishwarya Rai/Abhishek Bachchan together, even if they are engaged in real-life as well! The movie I *want* to see is 300. It sounds good. As does the one with Adam Sandler and Don Cheadle- Reign Over me? |
