I may have to torrent it again to remind myself exactly how bad it was.

It's a toss-up between this snooze-fest and The Hunt for Red October, for the most boring movie i've ever endured at the cinema...

I have seen the Doco but I watched the Movie Snowden. I enjoyed the movie and I have tried to tell the Mrs everything she does electronically is monitored and she never believed me. She does now. lol

A good watch and the main actor is the guy from 3rd Rock from the sun ( Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and plays the part really well.

Not a film but a film clip for a few seconds.

The impeccable Peter Lorre & the wonderful Vincent Price

Blair Witch.

Man I know I was watching a second rate pirated copy but Jesus H Christ never have I seen a more unwatchable movie.

And I mean that literally, couldn't bloody well tell what was going on for most of it.

Avoid.

P.S-What does the H stand for?

never understood the original movie! Was originally put out there as being an actual documentary thing, to get people sucked in to watch it. didn't know there was a new one, looks like it's supposed to tell the story of what happened and what what was captured on film meant. Think I'll pass! Thanks for the heads up!

Ah, I thought you were talking about the original! Hard to keep up with all the remakes.

I saw a really good (if painful to watch at times) German film called Everyone Else, about an eccentric but deteriorating relationship. A very different portrayal of love to what you usually see in the movies, but I think there's a lot of truth there.

Watched the A team movie last night, based on the old TV series.

I wasn't expecting much, considering how many of the 80's TV series have been slaughtered when they've been taken to the big screen (Starsky and Hutch and Dukes of Hazard come to mind) but this was actually quite good.

Played a little loose with the characters, but good mindless action flick.

I enjoyed it.

Inglorious basterds.

Tarantino is a whack job but I love him. First time I'd seen it, very not bad.
