Topic: Name one good film made in the UK.

Ks !KansasxqvM started this discussion 15 years ago #5,332

Not just a "meh" film, a good one. I've seen so many bad UK films that now when I see a film is made in the UK I don't even bother watching it. This isn't really an attack on the UK or anything, but goddamn your films are shit.

Doesn't come out until 2013, and "28 Days Later" had some great elements to it, but overall is was pretty "meh".

Oh shit, I meant weeks. And according to wikipedia, a sequel isn't looking likely right now. Some producers fell out or someging.

The only one I've seen is Trainspotting, a very solid film. You've made good recommendations before, I will watch them all. Snatch is pretty good, but not something to watch more than once or twice really.

I'm not a huge fan of days or weeks. I mean they are decent zombie films, but really thats a genre thats hard to fuck up. They did a good job, I will give credit where credit is due. Maybe I should say I'm not a big fan of zombie movies and not try to judge that genre. I remember some very intense moments in weeks, and some beautiful cinematography in days. I can't knock either one of em.

Eh, I don't like Bond films. I understand that people love them, and I'm cool with that, they just aren't my thang. I don't like star wars shit either, but people do...

Most of Kubrick's films were made in British studios with British crews. My favourite is Barry Lyndon. There's Life of Brian. Naked. Black Narcissus. If. Lawrence of Arabia and David Lean's other films. The Draughtsman's Contract.
