Just watch the Expendable very good film and plenty of stars to boot, but not for the squeamish :Shocked:

We watched a good film last night if you like Jean Reno he plays a brilliant part as always but he is one of my favourite actors, rather than me tell you about it I found some blurb and a clip on You tube

Based on a true story, though much indebted to Coppola's The Godfather, this tough French thriller (aka L'Immortel) begins with principled gangster Charly Matteï (Jean Reno), surviving the eponymous 22 bullets he takes in a Marseilles car park and setting out to avenge himself on the unprincipled rival who arranged the assassination. The 60-year-old Berry is no stranger to the policier (he appeared in La Balance, one of my favourite French crime movies of the past 30 years) and here plays a fellow gangster and directs with a firm, no-nonsense hand.

Trailer looks good although short might give it a try

The Family Stone - loved it
My Sisters Keeper - loved it but a weepy
The Blind Side - good movie

Watched all 3 and agree with your comments, I only watched my sisters keeper because my GF wanted to but it did bring a lump to my throat

I watched The traveler and its well worth the watch

Thanks for that Scott looks good I wil have to keep my eye open for this one looks very scary though

Saw 7, this one isn't for the faint hearted so watch it at your peril, there is a bit of blurb below but that really doesn't do it justice in my opinion

As a deadly battle rages over Jigsaw's brutal legacy, a group of Jigsaw survivors gathers to seek the support of self-help guru and fellow survivor Bobby Dagen, a man whose own dark secrets unleash a new wave of terror.

I've seen Saw and its real scary in fact I was hiding through most of it so I can't even recommend it

The expendables is a fully action packed film well worth the watch for those who like action with plenty of well known stars

I watched this to :Clap:very bloody but a great film and most of the actors are O.A.P's

We watched The Traveler last week and although it was a bit slow there is plenty of blood and guts but a bad ending

Not sure if I'm in the correct place, but here goes!
I've just watched "
My Sister's Keeper"
starring Cameron Diaz. I'd already read the book by Jodi Picoult and really enjoyed it.
My daughter and I were all prepared with hankies at the ready for the sad ending.
But.... the ending was different!! Not at all like the book. A sad ending but not the same.
Why do the film makers do this?
I know they have poetic licence but why change a perfectly good ending? Perhaps they thought audiences couldn't take it! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Anyone else feel this way?
Rant over.

What a shame but I have found that sometimes they do change things for films from the original in a book and I think they do this when graphically its get the right reaction

I can recommend 'The Life of David Gale' 2003, it is still a thought provoking film

Cheers
