Question Good films just out on DVD - what would you reccommend?

Jenny and the kids are away Fri/sat nights.

I have been left a loooong list of things to do like paint the dining room and repair the fences, etc. Long list

Friday night is gonna be on my own for the first time in a while so thinking about a curry, few beers and a good film prior to the DIY frenzy!

Any thoughts on what to watch, havn't hired a film since Christmas

Why not watch a film during the DIY frenzy?

Depends what you want to watch.

We hired Borat and Saw III at the weekend - Actually found Boray funny although I don't find "cringe" type humour very funny.

SAW III - well its a dodgy horror flick. I'll watch anything and I did look away a couple of times I must admit. If you like the series it ties it all up, if you weren't impressed by the 2nd its a bit better but neither matches up to the first.

I'd like to watch the Clive Owen film - Children of Man is it? Sounds OK.

Is 300 out yet? Why not pop down to Cinema to watch it? I resent taking the GF to films I like because she falls asleep so I go on my own.

Buy Pans Labyrinth. Gorgeous yet sad film but some people dont like it because of the subtitles.

Another vote for the departed.

Borat was just a bit too "oh my god, you cant do that" to sit and watch with the other half

Oops, just noticed you're on your own. In which case Borat is perfectly acceptable

Been meaning to watch this and it was on Film 4 last night. Superb film. Beautifully shot and the fantasy story set in the Spanish civil war was done brilliantly.
