Am on a film glut just now, can anyone recommend any good dvd's.

I dont do westerns, or operas!

Have finished watching James Bond, with Daniel Craig, mmmmm, nice body!

Awake.....it's got the guy from the new star wars movies.

THe premise is that he needs heart surgery but he is awake & can hear & feel everything..........I promise it's not gory....an excellent storyline brilliantly acted. I'll see if I can find a preview for you.

DRAMA

"Seven Pounds" with Will Smith! (This movie starts a little slow, but hang in there...I promise it is an amazing movie).

"Slumdog Millionaire"

"Keith"

COMEDY

"Bedtime Stories" (this is just a cute family film)

"Role Models" (Hilarious Movie, but the language could be offensive to some.)

"What Happens in Vegas"

Rachel, I haven't seen "Awake" as of yet. I have seen the advertisement box in our local stores, but I didn't have a clue what to expect. I am going to rent that one this week!!

Lady Rachel

I hope you enjoy it. We are going to watch seven pounds this week.

thanks guys, do you know of any older movies that arent in cinema, as we dont have a cinema! It is being built!

Lady Rachel

the 2 I mentioned aren't in cinemas. they are older films now.

by older how old? do you have a preference for any type of film. we watch loads of movies.

The Shawshank Redemption is always worth watching, it's one of my favourite films. Or maybe A Time To Kill, great film plus it has Matthew McConaghty in it for the drooling.

Lady Rachel

The Shawshank Redemption is a fantastic film.

Also 21 Arlington Road ( I think that's what it's called)

hakkie

I have shawshank redemption, i like it a lot.

I just am in a movie glut, and am needing others input as amazon drew me a blank! :)

thanks guys, keep em coming!

Blondie

slumdog millionaire i can highly recommend

he's just not that into you - very girly but very funny too

Frost/Nixon - i havent seen it but i do want to.

Dead Poets Society (is my favourite movie of all time!)

Australia - another one i fancy seeing

Midgie

Rachel,

I watched "Awake" tonight! WOW...it was absolutely amazing. I would have never chosen it if it weren't for your description.

Blondie--"Australia" is good. It is slow at parts and literally could have been three movies in one. However, if you hang on until the end, you will most likely enjoy it.

Hakkie-- Some older movies are: --"27 Dresses"--cute and Romantic. "Mrs. Pettigrew Lives for a Day"--very adorable, romantic.

I really loved this one movie--"Burn After Reading"; however, it is very different from most movies. It has Brad Pitt and George Clooney in it; yet, it is not a LOL comedy or even a "ha-ha" comedy. It is unique to say the least. I call it an intellectual comedy. When it is given a chance, it will make you laugh at the irony of the situation, but you won't really laugh about it for a day or two. It is one of those movies that you can't stop thinking about for days and when you least expect it (days later) you will laugh at different parts of the movie!

Ooo 27 Dresses! I love that film. In fact I watched it over the weekend!

Have you seen Road To Perdition with Tom Hanks?

Blondie

I have 27 dresses on DVD i think its a really cute film...i love the benny and the jets scene!

Lady Rachel

glad you enjoyed it Midgie. I've seen Burn After Reading....also thought it was a brilliant film.

50 First dates is a lovely film - romantic comedy.

We watched Defiance (downloaded ooops) the other night. Brilliant film with Daniel Craig & Beltaszar Getty.

hakkie

I like Daniel Craig, he has lovely eyes, and a gorgeous bum!

Julie C
