British Flicks - Part One

Great comedy from Hugh Grant.

Beautifully shot and visually stunning especially the beach scene with all the soldiers.

The storyline bored me,i really disliked the characters Cecellia and Robbie so i did not really care what happened to them. I actually felt sorry for Briony,her mother ignored her and her sister did not deal with her well,no wonder she was f*cked up.

Saoirse Ronan,Romola Garai and Vanessa Redgrave were excellent as Briony.

Great girly film!

Bunny Lake is Missing is about a missing 4 year old girl. Her mother and uncle have just moved to the UK from the USA and they enrol Bunny into school. It all sounds very average but the weird thing is we do not actually see Bunny and the movie gets us thinking is Bunny real or an imaginary child the mother made up during her childhood. The film keeps you guessing and towards the end turns quite dark and chilling.

I guessed the outcome but my husband got it completely wrong.

This movie is simply amazing. It tells the story of a London shopgirl called Violette Bushell whose normal life changes drastically when her husband,who is a French soldier,gets killed in action. Violette shows great bravery and courage.

The acting is amazing especially Virginia McKenna and Billie Whitelaw.

The Life That I Have

The life that I have
Is all that I have
And the life that I have
Is yours

The love that I have
Of the life that I have
Is yours and yours and yours.

A sleep I shall have
A rest I shall have
Yet death will be but a pause
For the peace of my years
In the long green grass
Will be yours and yours and yours.

Get your tissues ready.

After watching this movie i can now understand why my husband was embarassed when i shouted across our local Blockbuster store " Do you want Donkey Punch tonight? "!

Naomi and Viggo were amazing in this movie. I really did not expect to enjoy it as much as i did,when it finished i was gutted because i could of carried on watching the characters in this film for hours. The only thing that bugged me slightly was the ending,it seemed quite realistic until the final scene where it went a bit sickly sweet.

This film was quite funny in parts but the ending was a bit crap.

Visually stunning but not much else.

It just wasnt scary enough,he justs looks silly.

Great film to watch at xmas.

I have heard great reviews about this but it just didnt do it for me. I found it boring and the music was very annoying. The most exciting thing was a real life tremor half way through the movie.

Why did people keep letting this pathetic repulsive man into their homes?

The acting was superb but certain scenes dragged out way too long. It was very bleak and depressing and even though i have given it 3 stars i did not enjoy it at all.

Good cast but it was too slow,had to turn it off in the end.

Really excited to watch this...long haired hot men swinging big swords,James Caviezel and an alien...life doesnt get much better,woohoo.

Update - Yes the men were hot...Vikings rule BUT the movie was average and even predictable...not a word you should use to describe a Viking/Alien movie,you should be using words like different and exciting. It was a mixture of The Fifth Element,AVP,The 13th Warrior and Pathfinder.
