The Reader

Post by corkbarry »

I'm not one for liking emotionally charged dramas, but this one i did enjoy. It wont make you laugh or it wont make you cry, in fact ther are parts of the film where you will literally shout at the screen with annoyance. All in all the time watching this went fairly quick.
BTW there is a bit of TIT in it :lol:

this is one I want to see but it has already finished at our local cinema. We have one of those Cineworld cinemas. Flash will back me up when I say that it is a good one were the seats are comfy and they're steep enough to not be bothered by a tall person in front. The only problem is that films come and go too quickly.
The Reader has finished, so has Revolutionary road, and the Daniel Craig one about the partisans (can't remember the name). You have to be so fucking quick before they're onto the next lot. :banghead: :banghead:

Are you talking about the one near Freeport Spuddy? If you are i agree its a nice cinema quite newly built i think but the films do come and go quick, cant make out why!!!

Have to say The Reader doesnt really appeal to me but id like to see Slumdog millionaire if its not gone yet

Slumdog was due to finish on Wednesday but owing to it's success at the oscars they have extended it for a week. And yes, I am on about the one at Freeport. By the way, if you get the Braindead and Witless this week they have a two for one offer for Prezzos in it. Would make a decent night out, cinema and a cheap meal.

Note: I am NOT asking Flash on a date. I am suggesting it for him to go with Mrs Flash (or anyone else that takes his fancy) :wink:

I saw it.

Was fairly "romantic" for a war film, but worth seeing nonetheless.

It is a true story.

If you want more info, seek out the Ray Mear's "Extreme Survival" episode on the same subject , was very interesting.

I have just watched it and whilst it was a good film, I couldnt help but feel let down by Winslets tits. They are not as good as I had hoped although she did have nipples like dinner plates. Overall I would give the film 7/10 and Winslets tits 5/10

while on the film subject, has anyone seen "watchmen?"

I saw it last night and thought it was so overrated, the reviews make it sound like it was spectacular. Theres a lot of nudity in it, so most of you men will enjoy it, apart from the fact theres a man whos penis is shown 80% of the time :wink:
