Roadkill's Movie Review . . . This week : "Wanted"

Roadkill · July 07, 2008, 12:51:55 PM

Watched this earlier and felt compelled to do a review because I could sum it up easily and quickly in two words :

Utter Sh!te.

Or summed up in three words :

Complete, Utter Sh!te

Or summed up in four words :

Absolute Complete, Utter Sh!te.

I could go on . . . The acting was poor, storyline stupid, special effects - nothing special . . . utter crap.

The only plus side, of course, was Mrs Pitt.

Don't waste your money.

hmm...

i went to see it on Friday, iI didn't think it was too bad, the story was very far fetched, the acting wasn't horrific (I've sen plenty worse) and it wasn't just full of SGI and special effects like most films...

plus you get to see Jolie's ass....

I'd give it 3/5

I thought it was pretty good in fact.

mixed opinions there then....

Fieldy · July 07, 2008, 04:50:54 PM

The U.S forums I read have given mixed reviews, but, mainly not good....

I'm not fussed either way.... Doesn't look my type of film....

Incursus · July 10, 2008, 03:33:26 AM

Saw The Forbidden Kingdom last night.

3/5 if you like slightly cheesy kung fu films....which I do

If not....well your a bit of a girl arn't you

Saw The Forbidden Kingdom last night.

Yeah, saw that a while back - not bad, again I'd say 6/10.

Just finished watching "The Eye" - Not bad - 6/10.

Saw "The Bank Job" yesterday - that's cool - 9/10.

Saw "I am Legand", finally, too - 8/10.

Just sitting down to watch "Freebird" . . . . I'll let you know . . .

Isn't 6/10 the same as 3/5?

Sorry, got my pedantic head on today

Got it on DL. Trailer looked good. Not usually a good sign. Will give it a watch over the weekend.

Just watched "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" - Surprisingly good, actually. I'll give it a 8/10 . . .

It's got Totty and Boobs everywhere !

(and the occasional man sausage - so beware !)

Yep....Watched that last night too.

Far from being a Russell Brand Fan, I did find myself laughing rather loud on occasion. Well worth a watch

I particularly liked his retort when Sarah told him his music was crap - "Yeah, well I F**ked the housekeeper last week".

Yeah not bad I agree with that but mostly because Mila Kunis gives me a full on chubby

Incursus · July 16, 2008, 03:16:45 PM

Kung Fu Panda.

Not bad but not fantastic 6/10 from me.

the trailer looks funny enough, but i HATE and DESPISE russel twat face brand (notice no capital letters for his name as he's not a real person in my world!)

n the plus side, it does look like he gets hit in the head with a surf board... and it does look to have lots of bikini hotties in it....

EDGE · July 17, 2008, 04:34:38 AM
