Question:
Can anyone recommend a good film to see at the cinema this weekend?
....Apart from Atonement which I didn't like.
Answers: Well, it all depends on your preference of genre. If you are looking for a high-adrenaline action movie, I highly recommend The Bourne Ultimatum starring Matt Damon. The third instalment in the popular Bourne Trilogy is by far the best one yet and one of the best films I have seen this year to date. Relying solely on the charisma of Matt Damon’s tortured soul Jason Bourne and literally 2 Hrs of non-stop action with minimal dialogue, this fast-paced thriller will have you on the edge of your seat. Even if you can’t recall the details of the previous two instalments, this third entry is very self-explanatory and as already stated all action over plot with an ending that will (hopefully) promise more sequels. Also, there is Neil Jordan’s (The Crying Game, Interview with the Vampire) gritty and dark The Brave One starring Jodie Foster as a vigilante out to seek revenge on the thugs who perpetrated the brutal killing of her husband. Similar to another film out right now in terms of plot, Death Sentence, but this one shines due to Foster’s convincing performance which, in my opinion, is her most challenging role since escaping the clutches of Hannibal in The Silence of The Lambs. However, if you are looking forward to having a good laugh, then I highly suggest you see Superbad. Yes, it’s crude, rude, lewd, and offensive in every possible way, but at the same time it’s one of the funniest movies in a long while. If you liked The 40 Year Old Virgin, Wedding Crashers, and/or Knocked Up, then Superbad you will love. If you are looking for a good chick-flick or date movie, I would go for Good Luck Chuck starring Jessica Alba and infamous comedian Dane Cook. Yes, Dane Cook is known for his sometimes annoying displays of bodily movements on stage of comedic ranting. However, his likable persona here and the irresistible charms of cutie Alba save the film from being a total flop. Although, incomparable to Superbad, Good Luck Chuck does have its moments and is Rated R for good reasons, but serves to entertain for all it’s worth. If you are looking for drama, there is The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, which is quite slow and a period piece in every respect. A Western that will grow to be a classic, this film is generating Oscar buzz and has great performances especially from Brad Pitt, scene-stealers Casey Affleck and Sam Rockwell. This is a film that you need to be patient with during one seating and is minimal on action. Intelligent and atmospheric in every sense. But by all means, I suggest you avoid the new Resident Evil film. Even if you liked the first two, this entry is preposterous and ridiculous in every sense. I hope that you have a good time at the movies from my above recommendations. Good Luck Chuck was pretty funny Superbad Bourne Ultimatum.. i've heard its goooooooood Sure 1 minute plz. The Bourne Ultimatum if you like that sort of thing. If not get Black Book out on DVD or Apocalypto (if you like a good chase movie). Have fun super bad Bourne Ultimatum 3:10 to Yuma is an excellent movie to check out. It is hard to find a decent movie on nowdays but the new movie with Charlize Theron and Tommy Lee JOnes got good reviews here in the US and there are rumors it could be an Oscar nominee... Big bang theory, very good film! Depends on what you like ........ but I enjoyed Resident Evil: Extinction Resident Evil. Nothing like good ol' zombie slashin'.
