Best Films of 2014.

[DaGaffer]

Sorry, I meant The Wolf of Wall Street. I just fluked it and managed to put another film from 2013 in its place.

Which also went on general release in the UK in Jan 2014...

Gaffer always wins @caLLous, he's like Jesus, only real.

 

[old.Tohtori]

Turtles! Seriously, or are you baiting? Has to be one of the bottom 10 for me. The 80's cartoons had better story lines.

As @caLLous so "gallantly" put, yes i'm serious. I liked it, same feel as in the old movies and as a "kids movie" the plot was good enough to move the main thing along, namely turtles kicking ass.

They could've gone more classic, ooze and all, but meh minor details.

 

[Jupitus]

Shhhh.

I fixed the title as it was fucking with my OCD

 

[Trem]

The Drop
Nightcrawler
Whiplash joint third with John Wick, I can do that because I have brain issues and it's allowed

Thought Foxcatcher had astounding performances in it but shat film, likewise Birdman.

 

[Ceixah]

Hmm Hmm

I'm gonna break the mold slightly here as I saw that nobody mentioned it but...

The Lego Movie - easily my number one just purely on a feel about the film, hilarious at parts and a through and through good film. Don't let your adult mind thing this is too much of a kids film for you, get it watched and you won't regret it. Many a critic hold it in very high esteem also.
GBH - Ralph fiennes is brilliant.
Wolf on Wall street - pretty common pick too but I thought it was brilliant.

John Wick was surprisingly awesome.

 

[Scouse]

Just watched birdman. Loved it.

Bird thought it was, and I quote, "pretensious actor crap".

 

[Billargh]

My lass thought it was boring as fuck.

Just got back from Whiplash, brilliant film, J.K. Simmons was fantastic.

 

[Raven]

Just seen John Wick, awesome sauce.

 

[Jupitus]

Just seen John Wick, awesome sauce.

Likewise, and agreed!

 

[ECA]

John Wick was pretty good for a hitman revenge film.

 

[Ceixah]

aye, watched it last night, massively predictable but still pretty good.

 

[Edmond]

Just watched John Wick, now that's a body count!!

Was good, enjoyed it

 

[Tom]

Starred Up is a phenomenal film and quite unsettling.

Have had it downloaded for ages but haven't got round to watching it.

 

[Raven]

Seen it, pretty good

 

[Tom]

Watch it at night, make sure you're not disturbed by anyone. It's quite thought-provoking and not like other prison films you may have seen.

 

[Trem]

I hadn't heard of John Wick until @ECA did a thread about it on here so thanks go to hard gay for that.

Starred Up was very good but the lad's performance in it was head and shoulders above the storyline I thought.

 

[Gwadien]

I used YIFY, it was a dodgy copy since I had some weird message at the start so I missed

Spoiler

like the wife dying and the dog getting killed

(Do you even see that?)

Yep.

 

[Gwadien]

Yep.

It's hardly a spoiler, it's like saying the Hobbit is about a Hobbit.

Yeah, I know, but it still spoils a bit of the suspense

It kind of sets the tone of the film, it why he does what he, well, does

 

[leggy]

I forgot about '71 (Same lad from Starred Up).

Fucking scary and brilliant at the same time.

Aye, saw that the other night, also brilliant performance. He's a good actor, he was the lad in that Eden Lake wasn't he? That was good as well.

 

[Overdriven]

Tricky this one as I've realised I've not seen a few of the bigger films..

20 Years A Slave
Nightcrawler
Capt. America
Guardian's

Shorr list included..

American Hustle
Wolf Of Wall Street
How to train your dragon 2

I never saw the sequel to '12 Years a Slave' was it any good?

 

[DaGaffer]

John Wick was pretty good for a hitman revenge film.

Watched it last night. Was bored. A lot. I may have reached my lifetime limit for one-man-army revenge films.

 

[Edmond]

Woah @Overdriven, it's me who should be facepalming you!!
