Batman: The Dark Knight Rises -well, I got about two-thirds into it but then fell asleep so strictly speaking I haven't watched it. I will get through the rest of it today but I have to keep turning on the subtitles because I can't understand what Bane is saying, and then it doesn't matter anyway. The film has no story as far as I can make out except a nasty man wants to do nasty things. It might have looked ok in an Imax cinema, but on my flat screen its just, well, flat...
I agree Stavros. A dreary, overlong and pointless film.
Just about to watch this documentary on the Koch brothers:
Robert Greenwald's "Koch Brothers Exposed" (Full) - YouTube
Kon-Tiki - The true story about legendary explorer Thor Heyerdahl and his epic crossing of the Pacific on a balsa wood raft in 1947.

Berberian Sound Studio - a very creepy little film that achieves maximum effect by showing nothing. It's about a sound effects engineer working on a shlocky Italian horror film. A must for anyone working in the sound side of the TV or film industry. Very original.
Berberian Sound Studio official trailer - in cinemas 31 August - YouTube
If the person is a character who likes schlocky Italian horror films would you recommend that film to him? Sounds interesting.Quote:

Sold. Gonna drive over to Amazon and see if the store's open yet. That Blu-ray is mine. They hardly ever make Italian Horror films anymore so anything similar interests me. Time to fasten my bathrobe, grab the slippers, and off I go...Quote:

Amazon sells the soundtrack but not the film here. Just checked.
It's a pretty new film. Only jus released in the UK. Might not be out in the US yet.
