What's The Latest Film You Have Seen?

Watched this documentary on the Norwegian black metal scene last night. Was a bit disappointed to be honest, it seemed to focus too much on the politics and controversies of the whole movement, such as the murders and church burnings, rather than the actual music itself. I was hoping for some nice insight into the music, and maybe some cool live footage, but ended up with all the stories and information I've heard before.

I've heard about that, I always thought it was more music oriented which didn't really appeal to me. Varg is really interesting to me (in a uhoh kinda way), I may just watch that.

The interviews with Varg are probably the best thing about it. He's a very interesting and intelligent guy, even though some of his political beliefs I certainly don't agree with.

Latest movie I've seen is called RED with Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman. It's about a retired black-ops agent who's suddenly being chased by agent who try to assesinate him. Realising that he has become a target he reassembles his old team.

Funny - Action - Great fun!

Watched this for the second time recently and is a decent slice of British inner city life. A decent moral centre to the film helps greatly.

The follow on with many of the same characters six years on into their life and very impressed. I absolutely hate the faux ghetto talk that many young people appropriate (innit blood?) but both films are well realised and not mere youth movies trying to glamourise the culture.

Solid, gritty and independent British film making.

One of the best movies I've ever seen. 4.5/5

His Girl Friday. Brilliant.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 - It is much better than the first part. There is much more drama and it is quite emotional because it is the end of an era. I'm 19 and have grown up reading the books and watching the films.

The nineteen years later scene was a bit naff because none of the cast could get away for the age they were supposed to be.

Overall, a quality watch though. Best film yet. Wonder whether JK Rowling will explore any other avenues in this wondeful Harry Potter series?

Rewatched Hot Fuzz and Walk Hard yesterday. Solid fun. I love Hot Fuzz. Waiting for the third film in the series.

Rec and Rec 2. I have like, almost daily movie marathons with a friend of mine, and I still watch movies outside of those, so I've seen some real cinematic upsets before. Nothing like this. Rec was so great that I genuinely wanted to see almost all of these characters die (except for the bald fireman). Ended up really into it to the point where I actually got startled by a part or two, it ended, we said "**** this we're watching the sequel NOW".

Demon zombie virus. Are. You. Kidding? 0/10 two thumbs down.
