SHOULD I BOTHER WATCHING THIS FILM thread

[Martin]

I found out it DVR's 30 minutes of The International, so I deleted it.

Is State of Play good?

I liked it. I thought it was an enjoyable flick. I pretty much like anything Russell Crowe is in though.

[Matt]

I've heard nothing but good about 'State of Play', although I understand that the original BBC series is even better.

[Ben Thomas]

State of Play is a really good film, slightly hampered by one poor casting choice. Well worth a watch.

[Matt]

what casting choice is that, Ben?

[Martin]

Affleck?

[Ben Thomas]

No, the hitman. He's awful.

Everyone else is solid to great (for some reason, I found Bateman quite affecting) though they lay on the English slang too strong for Mirren's character.

[Ed Hocken]

I'll give it to Crowe in that movie. I can't think of another movie that would emphasize the particular accent of western Pennsylvania.

I really liked that flick. I also have a thing for her, so that helped. But that movie even made me dig on Cyclops.

You ever see SUNSHINE CLEANING, Rob? She's good, but sad, in that one.

Dude, James Mardsen is great. The man kills most of the time, if he's let loose. Watch Sex Drive. The movie is really fun, but it's made so much better by James MArdsen and Clark Duke.

[Matt]

As a followup in here: I finished 'the International' and enjoyed it. It's not great but it's decent, and it features a pretty killer shootout sequence at about the halfway point.

[Martin]

Alright:

Armored

Pride and Glory

I love you, Man

Last House on the Left (remake)

What say you, brothers (and sisters?)

[gravedigger]

Watch Sex Drive. The movie is really fun, but it's made so much better by James MArdsen and Clark Duke.

TRUTH. Marsden is the best thing about that movie.

[Martin]

Sex Drive is a great throwback to those 80's sex-driven comedy movies. Hence the name. I had zero expectations. I really liked it.

[BillyG]

I really like I Love You, Man. It's not classic, but it definitely has some laughs.
