I thought Pirates 2 was very disappointing after the first light hearted caper.

Constant Gardener is good.

Not seen the rest, yet.

Flags of our Fathers

Rocky Balboa (worth watching just to see if it is pants or not )
Dead Mans Cards (british flick about night clubs i think, sam janus in it)
Grim Reaper
House of Fog and Sand (Jen Connelly and Ben Kinglsey)
Interstate 60 (loads of celeb cameo's)
Snow Cake (am watching this tonight, Sig Weaver, Alan Rickman)
The Good Shepherd (Rob De Niro film, good write up)
Tideland (Terry Gilliam)

I have all the above films more or less waiting to watch at some point, but it will be Snow Cake tonight

I did watch the Departed the other night, now that was a good film

The break up - Unfunny comedy
Inside Man - Great crime/robbery caper with a twist.
Constant Gardener - Good, but need brain switched on. No happy ending.
Munich - I thought this was great. But most have like it or hate it view.
Firewall - Dreadful
Hostel - Great film. Horror fans only.
Underworld Evolution - ****e.
Lucky number Slevin - Superb. Best from your list I think.

Dont you hate it when people say a film has a "twist".You spend all the film looking for it.

Just good or crap will do.

That's because it was boring, waiting for it to get good and for something to happen - but it didn't.

As I said last night, pointless crap not worth watching And my mind was elsewhere because it was so dull. Couldn't get ito it at all PURE RUBBISH!

Now get Snowcake in ENGRISH you plik

pirates caribean 2 - Not bad is very long tho
Superman returns - Ok again very very long
You,me Dupreev - Quite funny
Inside Man - Great film
Munich - I liked it, very political,another long one
Silent Hill - Strange, but i thought it was ok (watch it in the dark on full blast)
Hostel - Not everyones favorite, but i loved it
Lucky number Slevin - Good film (i guessed the suprise after about 30 mins tho)
Hills have eyes - Ok, got some pretty ruff bits in, ****e ending tho

If your on your own then watch either : Inside man, Hostel or Lucky number slevin.

If with thw wife or kids : pirates caribean 2superman or maybe slient hill (as long as your kids arnt too young as it could frighten the life outta them)

I thought inside man was good, but missed the ending because I fell asleep

Likes pirates of the carribean 2, but not as good as the first.

Superman was OK but as already stated, too long and too many inconsistencies.

Hostel - VILE

Lucky number slevin

Not seen the others

Happy feet is funny though
