Raven Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Time Traveller: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time This is a live action sequel to the anime film The Girl Who Leapt Through Time that is, misleadingly, billed as a Japanese version of Back to the Future. The original animated film is an entertaining romp that is fairly well paced and has quite a bit of humour, where this, well, isn't either. Riisa Naka, who plays Akari - the girl who does the titular time leaping - also voiced the lead character in the anime version. She may be a good voice artist, but she's not so hot at actual acting and because of that there are several points where you wonder whether you are watching an amateur production. Having said that though, the story isn't too bad, it looks pretty good and the supporting characters have their moments. It's not something I'd recommend as a must see film, even if you have watched the original, but there are worse ways to pass a couple of hours. A solid Okay.
Nollaig Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 A solid Okay. Cool! I liked the original anime, didn't know there was a live action sequel. Last film I watched was My Little Eye, an early 2000's B-movie about a bunch of youngadults who enter a Big Brother style contest only to find out it's something very different. Saw it years ago and enjoyed it. For a B-movie, it's not bad.
sadya Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Yesterday '17 Again' was on tv, it was very entertaining and we enjoyed the winks to other movies.
frankie Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 I watched The King's Speech last night, it was better than I expected! I loved all the different camera angles, and the settings. And the actors were brilliant. I loved the relationship between Lionel and Bertie Jennifer Ehle should've had a bigger role in the movie though!
sadya Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Yes, it was an excellent movie. You wouldn't expect a movie about that subject to be interesting, but it was interesting and entertaining. Great choice and glad you enjoyed it.
frankie Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Yes, it was an excellent movie. You wouldn't expect a movie about that subject to be interesting, but it was interesting and entertaining. Great choice and glad you enjoyed it. As it happens, I had no idea what the movie was really about, I'd tried avoiding hearing any of it because all the hype was getting to me. I thought it would be about the war or some political conflict (which of course it was partly about), not literally about the King's speech.
Nollaig Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Rewatched Inception last night. Had totally forgotten just how good a film it is.
Sofia Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Rewatched Inception last night. Had totally forgotten just how good a film it is. I've been wanting to see that myself

Kylie Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 I saw Pirates 4 - a good fun movie and an improvement, I think, on the 2nd one (I believe I missed the 3rd movie).
Inver Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Just been to piccies to see 'Casablanca'. Classic movies at its best. One of those that I wasn't sure if I had seen it all the way through now I have. Was a one of screening at The Belmont Cinema.
Simply K Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Now that I've finished re-reading the Harry Potter books I'm now re-watching the movies. I watched the first one, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, last night. They all look so young!
Kylie Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I watched The Wicker Man last night. I just kind of got sucked in. Not a great movie, but nice to see an un-Hollywood-like ending.
Peacefield Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 I watched Surrogates last night, and wow! So not a movie for me
