Limitless




Interesting opening scene. Good dialogue. http://limitless-movie.co.uk Has a sci-fi aspect to it. The landlord's wife is nice. His mind has been opened up. He talks alot of sense. Glad he got to bone her. I would too. The publisher is a milf. Catch his new film Silver Linings Playbook. Bradley does some good impressions, see youtube. You might like Johnny Neumonic starring Keanu Reeves. Good special effects. Other's have gained an interest in the drug and it's capabilities. This is set in New York. Trippy psychadelic effects. He gets lucky yet again in a nightclub. This film will appeal to guys. Red Lights starring De Niro is a good film. Abbie was great in Sucker Punch. Reminded me of Bruce Almighty. When it comes to drugs with the highs must come the lows. Looking at a trailer I thought De Niro was an FBI agent. But he's a Hedge Fund Manager.He is a handsome man that Mr. Cooper. Another film of his is Hit N Run. Good fight scene based on memory. Side effects his life keeps skipping forward. See The A-Team plus some other films advertised below.

I'm So Excited aka Los Amantes Pasajeros

Cert 15 film by Pedro Almodovar. A camp comedy about an airline on it's way to Mexico City. It's in Spanish. Released in 2013. The music during the opening credits is cover of a Beethoven song. Cast: Penelope Cruz, Antonio Banderas. You might like All About My Mother and Talk To Her. You've probably seen Snakes On A Plane, Flight Of The Dead, Airplane, Come Dine With Me, Quarantine 2, Con Air etc. The film is subtitled. 5060002837306. Some other foriegn films I recommend are Juan Of The Dead, La Horde, Les Revenants. Also see Not Another Gay Movie. There is an accident in the opening scene. The baggage handler is busy tweeting. Worth checking out the trailer. I rented this for £3.50 from Blockbuster. The company is Peninsula Airlines. Due Date and Anger Management had funny plane scenes. Some bizarre characters. Alex and Benito are pilots, Joserra is in charge of cabin crew. Fajas is dark haired and stocky. There's Norma is complaining. Also a psychic in a red dress that's weird. Ulloa is slim with a tash. There is a nice dance sequence. I recommend you see this.

Hitchcock biographical film of Alfred Hitchcock


icon

The great filmaker. Stars Sir Anthony Hopkins as Alf, Dame Helen Mirren as his wife Alma. Toni Collete, Scarlett Johannson and Jessica Biel also ster. I did a little art piece symbolising 20th Century Heroes. I chose film. One image was of a shadow of Hitchcock holding a knife. There is a tv series called Bates Motel out now. It's set around the time where Alf wants to make a film based on a horror novel Psycho. The film itself was remade a few years ago. Toni plays Peggy a P.A. Scarlett is actress Janet Leigh. Janet was the mother of Jamie Lee Curtis that starred in the Halloween movies. The trailer looked good. Alf is determined, morbid with a sense of humour. See Sam Raimi's films. myworld.ebay.co.uk/mrkish09 I liked The Aviator a film about Howard Hughes. It'd be interesting to read his biography. A great cast. Paramount were reluctant to go ahead with this film. Alf was risking his reputation. Mr Stefano played by Karate Kid actor Ralph Macchio. See Chaplin starring Robert Downey Jr. Cert 12. 

Due Date Robert Downey Jnr Zach Galifianakis


A comedy cert 15. Interesting so far. Good acting. Nice dialogue. Michelle Monaghon, Juliette Lewis and Jamie Foxx also star. You might also like Anger Management, What About Bob?, Roadtrip, Rat Race, Cannonball Run, Seven Psychopaths, Paul, Dumb And Dumber, Dead Heads, Up In The Air. Peter Highman is a first time father, he is to be back in LA as his wife will giving birth sometime soon. He has a chance encounter with aspiring actor Ethan Tremblay. I think RZA from Wu-Tang Clan plays a customs officer. I've enjoyed their other films like Hangover, Iron Man, It's Kind Of A Funny Story, Dinner For Schmucks. So I thought I'd give this a go. 2010 Warner Bros 5051892026710. Good scene with Peter and the kids of a drug dealer that Ethan knows. 'I'm not an accountant Peter, I'm not even Jewish'. Danny McBride stars as a Western Union rep. Ethan has a pet dog called Sonny. Directed by Todd Philips. Peter has pulled over on a busy road. There's a funny masturbation scene. Out now.
