Classic film.

I always thought Die Hard With a Vengeance was the best. The third one i think.

Watched Deliverance earlier and Gran Torino at the weekend. First time i'd seen Gran Torino and thought it was superb.

I found Deliverance highly overrated, if it wasn't for the rape scene would anyone remember it. Saw The Warriors last night, quite good

None of my mates really rated Gran Torino but i thought it was superb. Im a big fan of Eastwood the director, he really knows how to tell a story. If you've not already seen it i'd suggest 'Crazy Heart' which is a helluva film and Jeff Bridges is tremendous in it.

Think the first Die Hard is the best but they're all good.

Watched Saving Private Ryan last night..really good but so sad at the end!
wish I started watching it before 12am though! It's a long film..went off at nearly 3am, was shattered today because of that!
It was quite gory at points I thought, but excellent..


I'm thinking about getting the Bourne films, shall I get them all or just the first one? Do they get better or worse as they go on?

A mate and I watched Gran Torino last night as I have to say I thought it was absolutely excellent.
I was lead to believe that it was a "kickass vengeance" film where Clint's character kicked off in a similar way to Michael Douglas' in Falling Down, but was pleasantly surprised when it almost bordered on bitter sweet comedy in places. I knew it had to turn ugly eventually but was really wishing it wasn't. Definitely in my top 5 watches this year.

In a similar vein as Gran Torino, Harry Brown with Michael Caine is quite good.

As for the Bourne films, the first one is the best but you've gotta watch em all anyway.

^ok thanks I'll see if I can find them cheap online then

They're normally pretty cheap at any half-decent torrent site.

^Nah, I dont understand how they work.
I'd rather buy them and add to my dvd collection.

Has anyone seen The Party (Peter Sellers)? Is it any good? It sounds funny...
Also, Awaydays?

It`s a comedy classic, highly recommended!

awaydays is rubbish.

^Really? The trailer looked quite good..im sure my friend was saying she'd seen this film and liked it

Thanks Corina...I might get it then!


Watched This is England..great film, quite funny at times but violent and alot of swearing. Thought the acting was brilliant

I bought Withnail & I off ebay for 1p earlier..cant go wrong really
