THANK YOU!!!

Haven't watched it yet, but seeing Ruffalo on the trailer I thought exactly the same thing. Eric Bana would also be better.

I agree. Bana was a good Hulk. That said, Ruffalo was pretty good, and he did the motions of the Hulk (using the method used for the actors in Avatar), but still.

What a guy.

I had a bit of a Schwartzenegger weekend. Running Man, Predator, Terminator, Terminator 2, Total Recall. Me and a buddy got a bit drunk and decided to watch a whole bunch of Arnie films. For a good drinking game, whenever Arnie says anything that is a catchphrase or is incredibly hammy acting, take a drink... at your peril. We got utterly smashed doing this. Good fun, plus Arnie films never really disappoint. they ain't Schindler's List, but they do what they say on the tin.

That's the one they think he is a spy but he is just banging someone else's girlfriend, isn't it?

It turns to a proper cold era spy film!

If that's the one then yes, I agree with you, good movie and Costner is ok in it!

A great dissapointment unfortunately. Giant plot holes, terrible script. Looks very pretty though!

I wasn't too disapointed with it, i enjoyed the film, but your last comments i agree with

I waited a little while to go see it as a friend had some commitments before he could come with me, so when shortly after its release Ridley gave an interview saying there was a directors cut, I was slightly alarmed.

I also avoided any reviews, and really my only warm up to the movie was the virals released on the internet.

One can but hope, that the directors cut, like blade runner before it will be the definitive version that solves some of the larger plot holes in the movie.

If not, then I stand by my jettison request to any budding rocket builder.

The film is a touch slow getting going but it does build a real web of intrigue and I loved how it all panned out. If you like proper spy thrillers (as opposed to spy action films a la James Bond) then see this film its good.

8/10

Anyone know of anything good on NEtflix that may have flown under my radar. I pay £6 a month for it, I'm trying to make sure I watch one movie a week to make it worthwhile (apparentl;y that is where I draw the value line!)

I don't think it's that bad. Sure there were a few stupidities and the plot could be a bit better but I like to watch movies with atmosphere and mood that take me away from this world and I think Prometheus did a great job in that.

Sat up till 3am watching it, it is an awesome film, really well directed (Mel does have a lot going for him, despite what he has against him) great script including the 'modern' translation in the subtitles and a really compelling story which kept me watching right till the end without moving. Has got quite a few gory scenes to warn people about in case your a little light stomached.

He may be an anti-semitic, alcoholic religious nut, but the man is a great actor and director!

I'll need to watch Aplocolypto. At the moment, Netflix has me watching Mythbusters, which is a brilliant show!

watched Apocolypto couple of years ago, late night on BBC. very good movie

also read Millenium trilogy and then watched all three Swedish movies. Great books and movies are almost there.

this might be slightly controversial, but in terms of the movies, i watched the swedish movie first (dragon tattoo) and then a few months later watch the hollywood version, and i quite liked the hollywood version more, i found the swedish one a little slow (although truth be told, i did watch it at 1am, and fell asleep towards the end, so it may need a rewatch)

how do the other films compare?

I haven't seen the Hollywood one yet. But my reason to go books and then Swedish movies was very deliberate one - who can show Swedish way of talk and do things better than Swedes themselves? (similar as 'Killing' situation). So I actually wanted to watch 'originals' first, with subtitles. Of course they were changes comparing to the books, but I think in general it was really close. With just one thing I want to mention - books are not that focused on Liz comparing to the movies. And we have to remember those are TV movies. Not a proper cinema as a Hollywood one.

@Mr E - I think she is a very good actress. but that would be it from my side BTW - are you MrE I think you are? with the stories about lawnmower business?

I watched all three Swedish movies at the cinema and despite my usual dislike of subtitled films I prefered them to the Hollywood version. Daniel Craig and co was not bad but Noomi Rapace and Michael Nyqvist have it by a comfortable margin.

Have you seen it? I wanted to quit cinema after like 10-15 minutes when I realized what it is. It was first I was even thinking about doing it and I have seen many bad movies. It's totally weird movie and very hard to follow, because it's just what I wrote in spoiler. It's not that you shouldn't give it a try, because it's just my opinion, but you have been warned. If you watch it till the end AND enjoy it, I fully respect you.

But But!! IMDB gives it 6/10. Granted a 6/10 score is a "passes the time score but.... Oh wait it's got that dude from twilight in it. Therefore you've got the "I loved that film because it got R Patzz in it and he's soooooo gorgeous... Dont ask me what the film was about. I've got no f'kin clue but he's soooooo lovely." Vote from Twi-Moms and their offspring.
