Any idea when Deadpool HD (no subs) will be around?

[Jules01]

Ha ha Dave will be posting up his review soon!720 hours of mind numbing fucking drivel it'll be. You'll love it and then not stop going on abar it, like it was some sort of shit covered masterpiece!

I am also looking forward to his review of 'Bad neighbours 2' bet he can't wait.

Went to see Anders Thomas Jensen's 'Men & Chicken' yesterday, starring Mads Mikkelsen. It was a lot of fun. As far as absurdist/existentialist comedies with animals go, I enjoyed it even more than The Lobster! Recommended.

Was it as good as his last film?

Adam's Apples, you mean? It's funnier and it's good in a different way. Can't choose between them to be honest.

That's the one. I liked Adam's Apples....it seems a big gap between films though...I'll have to have a look now.

It is a gap, eleven years.

dont suppose anyone can link me to Romanzo Criminale (2005) with english subs??

Also, saw the 2nd trailer for Independence day 2, looks like fun!

OK Hank.

Watched the other day The Witch and Mr Right. Both shit, didn't even finish the latter. The former had a slow, boring start (and went so till the best part of the film) until it supposedly picked up the pace and even then nothing interesting really. More like some cringey moments instead.

Mr Right was terrible and can't believe I'm typing this but Anna Kendrick was insufferable in that.

Watched Mr Right last night - it should have been good but the writing was terrible, both plot and what they are saying oh and the character development.

First half I could get through the second half was crap - real missed opportunity.  Still glad I watched it over Bad Neighbours or whatever tha pile of W*nk is called.

I could only find an Italian DVD rip (no HD, no subtitles) but just googled the name of the release + subtitles and found subs for it. Drop them in the same folder and VLC plays them.

As for the film itself, it's very long (just under 3 hours) and not as good as Gomorrah or Subbura.

[Daniel Cabbaggio]

cheers man il give it a go, heard the series was good. Have you a link to subbura by any chance?

[wellred82]

I watched Southpaw on the weekend. Great movie! Not sure how Eminem would have fared had he not quit but Gyllenhaal did a great job. Makes me wanna go hit the gym!

I only watched it as an Italian lad I know said the series is better than Gomorrah. Haven't watched the series yet though.

Suburra should be easy enough to find as it was only out last year. There are HD versions with subs on Kat, PB and IPTorrents. Should be  on most Kodi film addons as well. It's also being made into a TV series.

Decent, web-rips of Hail Ceaser and High Rise released in the last day.

[CHOPPER]

Casuals - the story of the legendary terrace culture.

Enjoyed it. A walk down memory lane of wedge hair cuts, samba, Peter Storm and how it all began, or who claimed they started it - though we know where it all stared.


Have to say, Hooton really does kill that scouse accent of his for the narrating. Surprised the End never got a mention ahead of the Face.

Wanted to love it, didn't. Actually borderline disliked it. An absolute mess.

[Crosby Nick]

Just came back from watching the Jungle Book. Thought it was fantastic to be honest. The biggest challenge a film has is in forcing its audience to suspend its rationality. This film did that and more. It was entertaining as hell. Funny sometimes, emotional at others, cute in some scenes and thrilling in others. Proper package and hugely entertaining. Well worth a watch.

Took the kids to see this yesterday and thought it was really good. It looks brilliant,  some genuinely tense parts,  Bill Murray was just perfect and as Baloo and I thought the kid who played Mowgli was more than decent.

[The Gulleysucker]

Today on Film4 at 11.00am, allegedly a contender for one of the worst films ever made, Raiders from beneath the Sea.

I understand from reviews that it makes the films of Ed Wood appear like the work of Herzog, and the soundtrack is also completely inappropriate, bongos and cheesy organ.

And any Film that has an actor named "Russ Bender" in it surely has to be worth a peek.

Sounds fun.

[Skidder.]

Midnight Special was a bit lacklustre if I'm honest - very pithy concept which overwhelms the film I thought.

Have you read the novel? It's a bit messy as well.

Same feelings pretty much. Love the look of it, the sound of it, the idea...but tonally just doesn't hold together.

[Mad Max]

The Rise Of The Footsoldier 2 was ok.

[AndyMuller]

Jungle Book tonight, looking forward to it!

Didn't even know it was a novel let alone read it lol.....any good?

J. G. Ballard mate - Empire of the Sun (his pretty conventionally-written semi-autobiography as a lad), Crash (the Cronenberg one), The Drowned World, Atrocity Exhibition. Awesome dystopian visionary, he was.

Defo check him out. I'll read anything by Ballard, me, he's like Bill Burroughs and Orwell as far as I'm concerned.

[Haemoglobin]

Ever watch that BBC4 TV drama from a few years back, Home, about a guy who decides never to leave the house again? That was based on one of his short stories as well, The Enormous Space.

I second this post.

I mean, Ballardian is a genuine adjective (like Orwellian, ha), he's a don.

Don't think everything he did is amazing, but most of it is Especially Empire of the Sun, fantastic, and High Rise, Atrocity Exhibition, and The Unlimited Dream Company for me.

Not seen the film of High Rise yet. Will try to soon.

Hello My Name Is Doris 2015 HDRip XviD AC3-EVO

Sally Field is always worth a look...Sybil....


A self-help seminar inspires a sixty-something woman to romantically pursue her younger co-worker.

[dave 5516]

And if you've not seen Sybil....I must insist you do....

 He'd never have got that....it's too old for him to watch....I love that film, in fact I liked three of the versions of that story.

Just watched that High Rise, was one of the films I was most looking forward to this year.

Still not sure if I like it or hate it. Wish they'd gone even more surreal

[AndyMuller]

Jungle Book was absolutely fantastic!
