I was sure we had this thread on here already but can't find it...oh well.
Basically just post the last film/s you watched, and include a short review if you want, or a rating.
And remember, if you post spoilers, give a warning and use the [sp oiler][ /spoiler ] tag.
Irreversible - I'm never sure how I feel about this film. It's brutal, violent, disturbing and difficult to follow, but how it's shot, and the fact that it starts at the end (literally, the movie begins at the end of the end credits, and goes through them backwards) is simply stunning.
It's not an enjoyable film (far from it, there are several moments where I almost have to turn it off) but it is still a great movie. One scene I think is violence for the sake of it, just because they felt like including something that shocking in the film, but it doesn't really ruin the movie.
Not for anyone with a weak stomach, but if you are a fan of horror films (I guess it's classed under horror, perhaps just "Very violent drama" would be a better description) you should see it. It's in French so you either need a subtitled or dubbed version (which almost certainly means a cut version) Dubbed is easier to follow if you can put up with it, I'd suggest subtitled though.
Sawathon - Saw to Saw V in one sitting (minus a small break between IV and V to get to the cinema) - By far the best way to watch those movies. Really get a sense of how the films link up together (apart from V, which still seems a bit pointless) Notice more things each time I watch them, some which answer questions from a previous viewing, some that make more questions. Just hope they are all answered in Saw VI.
