| Re: What was the last movie you saw? I saw The Stone Tape, a pretty interesting BBC produced movie about a scientific team working on storage technologies that sets up office in an old house, only to find it haunted, and then sets out to analyze the haunting phenomena. Good writing from Nigel 'Quatermass' Kneale and solid British acting make this worth the look see. |

| Luna tick | Re: What was the last movie you saw? Watched Monsters last night, brilliant film. Done on the cheap by a special effects specialist and looked amazing, one or two shots were so beautiful, like the one following the boat in the morning. A very good film, not too over the top, but some great aliens (a bit like octopi and cuttle fish) and quite a poingant story. I really enjoyed this and recommend it to anyone that like Sci-fi/monster movies. Though don't expect the usual monster detroying a city type movie, this was a fantastic film. Big thumbs up |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? @sloweye: I thought even the first John Carpenter's Vampires was an awful film and would never have considered going in for another helping of that crap. Anyhoo, re-watched Zodiac today. While I liked this the first time I saw it in the theater, I loved it more on revisiting. Brilliantly plotted and paced and superb performances all around (especially liked Mark Ruffalo as investigator David Toschi). David Fincher's best overall film, methinks. |

| Luna tick | Re: What was the last movie you saw? Just watched The Fighter at cinema, starring Marky Mark Walhberg, Christian Bale and Amy Adams. Good film, great boxing film, probably the most realistic boxing film I have seen, they even filmed the fights with a tv camera so it looked less cinema and more like the real thing. I have to admit that this was a really good film, a couple of great performances from Bale and Adam, Walhberg is ok, looks the part. Quite uplifting and a great representation of real life boxing. Some amazing bits that made me want to look up the real fights (which I have just done on You Tube) looks like they were a bit leniant with dramatising the fights, but still pretty close to the real thing. If you like boxing you'll probably like this film, if you like biopics you might like it. If, like me, you love film then you'll most likely enjoy this. Another good film worth watching if you get the chance. IMHO |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Despicable Me Noticeably below Pixar level, but this CG cartoon about a wannabe super-villain has a lovely retro-futuristic look and, even with all the cliches, is reasonably amusing. Worth a watch, more so if you have kiddies. |
