Both decent action movies, but nothing I'd scramble to rewatch a second time. Not a bad way to spend an evening but there are better movies to watch.
OK, I'm being a little too harsh. 47 is an average-to-good action movie. But, it's an awful, and I do mean, very awful Hitman movie.
Hitman isn't Matrix.
watch them again.
If I understand things well, I shall now have to throw up more cash for that 'prequel' trilogy of Hobbit Beast films. :) And also, aren't we supposed to start campaigning for Radcliffe to return to the role of Potter? ;-)
Fun film. Purely made for entertainment.
Really enjoyed this, as from the discussions on the Batman thread, I'm looking at
Some of these older animated films.
The Omega Man.
I agree, i found it mediocre.
The Maltese Falcon is a favorite of mine as well. Murder My Sweet is great with Dick Powell. That reminds me I need to replace my copy of This Gun For Hire. I moved recently and several movies ended up left behind.
I also love some of the lesser known noirs like RAW DEAL (1948) with Dennis O'keefe, Claire Trevor and Raymond Burr. That one is pure gritty noir in tone and look.
ON DANGEROUS GROUND with Robert Ryan and Ida lupino is great. Ryan is a burnt out cop that is sent out to the snow covered mountains to track a killer. Great performance by Ryan. Then ROAD HOUSE (1948) with Ida Lupino, Richard Widmark and Cornel Wilde. Love triangle with Widmark going crazy. Excellent!
You're a better man than I am, I couldn't make it past the first ten minutes of 'Agent 47.'
But, like you, I am hopelessly in the wait for Luc Besson to drag Statham back into the game. Frank Martin is his template and vice versa.
Just bought this new box set, its a improvement on the other BD boxset. Just watched the The Philosophers Stone and the coloring and picture sharpness appeared much better. This film stand up very well think its under rated has some great sequences.
@DarthDimi, if you're referring to the Beasts movie when talking about Dan, the film series is set some 70 years before Harry's birth, so we won't see head or tail of him.
Anyway, I think episode 2 is my favourite. Either that or episode 4. I never liked episode 3 very much, I didn't like the time travel elements. Harry and the gang seemed trapped between childhood and the teenage years in that one. I think the series really started to go down hill after episode 5. I just remember them getting darker and darker. By episode 7 part 1 you could barely make out who was onscreen, it was so dark. I don't think I ever even saw part 2. After dobby choked it I couldn't carry on. I never read the last book either, so I have no idea how the story ends. Is Snape behind it or something? :))
Oh, and they both have a giant spider as a main character in the second entries!
