Well Sixth Sense is the only film on that list that's actually any good.

And if you want to see one of the worst films ever then get Glitter.



( I know some of you well go on about how great Tron is, but have you seen it recently? You'll be asleep within half an hour. )

I'm guessing that you live near a store/shop that sells R1 titles. Unless you know of an online store with the fastest order processing and delivery service in the country. :p

I'd have to agree - Sixth Sense is the only one out of the list I'd consider anyway :)

If you mean Disney's Atlantis, I thought it wasn't out until the 29th? Anyway, pretty good film, I thought.

Thanks for that,
I was hoping Rat Race would of got your votes as the trailer looked top.
I'm guessing the best bits are in the trailer though as are so many other film trailers.
cheers

So come on Punisher, where are you going to get Tron, Sixth Sense Vista etc in the next 6/7 hours?

If I was you I would go for Tron, get bored with it and then sell it to me.

You shouldn't have to look to hard on these pages to see what people thought of Rat Race.

Tron is a classic, but a classic that has not aged too well.
Jeepers Creepers, for me, was one of the best horror movies of the last year - a good romp if you can indulge in some heavy suspension of disbelief. Some, though, hate the sudden ending....
Sixth Sense is an excellent film and one that actually improves over several watchings, even if the final act seems a little weak to me.
Atlantis is a good Disney film, but not up there with their best. If you like Disney, you may get something from it. If you're like me and hate the mouse, then steer clear. :)

Where did you get these from??. Do you live near an American base??. Even so i didn't think Atlantis was out until the end of the month.

Actually Rat Race ain't as bad as the Forums make it out as.. it's not the best Comedy but it's not the worst.. Like (o brother where Art thou) what *****.. not the least bit funny (Coen = crap) (Zucker = good) (Farrelly = Best Comedies)

O Brother ***** and unfunny? What, even the visual gags with the cow and the roll-top desk?.

I suppose somebody who's boat is rocked by the Farrelly's crude, gross-out, (and well-signposted) jokes could fail to enjoy the sheer wit and subtlety in O Brother Where Art Thou. I actually quite enjoyed There's Something About Mary but I certainly didn't get the same level of enjoyment from it as I did O Brother - probably my most watched disc, it's rewarding on every viewing.

i also think Rat Race isnt as bad as some people here like to make it out to be. Me and my mates certainly got a fair few chuckles from it and I certainly dont regret buying the dvd at all.

Just a very entertaining film as far as i'm concerned.

Also, O Brother... is a great film but it isnt a patch on The Big Lebowski. Bring on the flames!! :D:D

Tron is a period piece and the f/x are quite stylish - not dated.
