I'm half way through Gomorrah, it gets my vote! Everything about it is good.
"Grange Hill meets Old Boy"
I don't see how that can be anything other than awesome.
That's me sold then... once I decide which of the manifold "Confessions of a..." flick that leaps forth when I hit the torrent sites looking for it :D
Can't remember if I asked before, but has anyone seen 'the Limey'? If so is it any good?
I'm half Aussie so have to mention these: The Castle, and more recently Animal Kingdom and Snowtown. Yeahh Mayte!
An innocent man is on the run after he's accused of murder and his spouse seemingly returns from the grave in this thriller from France. Alex Beck (François Cluzet) is a doctor who has slowly been putting his life back together after his wife Margot was murdered by a serial killer. Eight years on, Alex is doing well enough until he finds himself implicated in the murder of two people, with plenty of evidence pointing to him as the killer even though he knows nothing of the crimes. The same day, Alex receives an e-mail that appears to be from Margot (Marie-Josée Croze), which includes a link to a video clip that seems to be recent and features his late wife looking alive and well. Margot's message warns Alex that they are both being watched, and he struggles to stay one step ahead of the law as a gang of strong-arm men intimidate Alex's friends into telling whatever they might know about him. Alex's sister Anne (Marina Hands) persuades her well-to-do lover Helene (Kristin Scott Thomas) to hire a well respected attorney, Elisabeth Feldman (Nathalie Baye), to handle Alex's case. While Elisabeth tries to keep Alex out of jail, she learns that her client has a warrant out for his arrest, and Alex goes on the lam while he and his lawyer struggle to find out the truth about the murder as well as Margot's reappearance. Tell No One (aka Ne Le Dis a Personne) was based on the international best-selling novel by Harlan Coben.
Headhunters stars the talented Aksel Hennie (Max Manus) as Roger, a charming scoundrel and Norway's most accomplished headhunter. Roger is living a life of luxury well beyond his means, and stealing art to subsidize his expensive lifestyle. When his beautiful gallery owner wife introduces him to a former mercenary in the possession of an extremely valuable painting, he decides to risk it all to get his hands on it, and in doing so discovers something which makes him a hunted man. Headhunters is based on Jo Nesbø's best-selling thriller from 2008.
Snowtown is good but not in a good way... It's dark as fuck.
So I've heard, that's pretty much why I've not got round to watching it yet. Normally when I'm in the mood for watching a film I've also been sitting smoking dope all day. So I have all sorts of apparently great, but grim, films downloaded that I've still not watched & I end up watching Friday haha.
I thought it was excellent, but is a bit like vegemite, you like it, don't like it or haven't heard of it. It isn't chronological which annoys some people but there are some sterling performances.
secret window is the most hackneyed, rehashed, Stephen King bullshit that ever got made. and I don't mind a bit of King generally tbh.That sounds good will have to watch it! Did you download it?
Watched Secret Window, horror movie with johnny depp yesterday, decent like. Could do with one for today.. Tyson may be on the cards.
