Cabal, while an ace read didn't work that well as a film though any Horror fan would partiulrly enjoy David cronenburgs role in that

That was 'Nightbreed' which at the time I thought was great, re-watched it a few year ago. Not so great, but the Cronenburg cameo-role was amazing.

Saw it on Saturday night. Excellent but bleak, really fucking bleak. Beautiful landscapes, gritty action, life's big questions, reflection, Liam Neeson handles all superbly. Stay until the very end though, the final titles go on forever but stay until the very end or you see a different film to the one that those who jump out of their seats and leave once the end titles start...

I really like 'The Grey' saw it at the weekend too. The people I was with were not so impressed. Neeson was amazing, a true actor's performance. I didn't stay till past the ending though I will check out the post-credit scene when the DVD comes out.

I wish so much that I had listened to you.

I thought the first was passable. This was frankly the worst thing Working Title have produced in years. I'm almost glad they didn't hire me last year if it'd meant I'd have been working on this dross.

The cast should be fucking ashamed - Gillian Anderson in particular - she had no right to be in that film. The no-doubt hundred or so writers that were used to plagiarise all of the shitest ideas from the past 50 years of Cineworld releases should be forced to watch something good if they absolutely have to steal from something.

They're supposed to be the most important production company the UK film industry has to offer. I bet DavCam and his fucking "Let's encourage succesful film franchises" cronies fucking loved it.

Absolute bollocks with the only redeeming feature being the banana/gun switch.

Oliver Parker, Tim Bevan, Eric Felner, Chris Clark, Hamish McColl - you can all fuck off.

I don't give a shit if you get good box office overseas - the French don't know any better. That or they're in on a joke which means they like watching stupid British people embarassing themselves.

You TWATS.

LOL - I agree totally. I didn't think much of the film overall, but it did have some funny bits - which I can't remember.

The thing is that stateside just having Atkinson in it will draw people in so the box office numbers will actually be decent. The relative cost of the movie versus US box office alone will mean that there is probably another movie coming this way.

As for the actor embarassing themselves - don't forget for someone like Anderson it is just a pay check until the next decent period drama comes along.

Gonna go and watch Robin Hood Prince of Thieves to calm down.

Yeah that actually has its moments, I saw a tweet about it being on at the PCC this week.

Got Drive on DVD on monday, and watched it again. Just such a slick movie. Last night finally got around to watching 'Black Rain' after mentioning it pages ago. Going to see 'The Descendants' tonight, fingers crossed.
