Dead Man's Shoes quality, recommend it to anyone. Anyone know the name of that film where loads of different comedians tell the same joke and it keeps getting sicker

Thought it was The Actors.
Could well be wrong.

Bollocks.
I was close, it had a The and started with an A.

the producers (broderick/lane version)
good comedy film, with a genuine flair for visual and musical humour. suppose you'd describe it as a specticle of funnyness if you were a NME level jounalist.

How does it compare with the original?
25 Jan 2007 01:05
ashamed to say i've never seen it! but nathan lane is so perfectly cast its unreal! broderick is a likeable enough guy, thurman is gorgeous and the gay director and his assistant are fantastic. Will ferrell is excellent too. great film, wish i'd of seen it in the cinema!

I saw it in the cinema and really enjoyed it, but I kind of got the impression alot of people didn't as I heard alot of "What The Fucks" and the like at the end.

I love the original and didn't want to taint it by seeing the remake, might actually watch it now.
On a related note, the curb your enthusiasm take off of it is also excellent.

i watched the start of Mr Vengeance and three short asian horrors, the last of which scared me and i couldn't sleep. to combat this i thought i'd put the tele on only to see the fucking Ring was on.

Watched the Prestige last night. Good film although a few niggles. Excuse the long post.
Firstly Bales ludicrous accent. It seems Dick Van Dyke is now a tutor in accents.
Bale is one of the best actors of his generation, he morphs into parts superbly. I just dont know what happened, his performance seems rushed for want of a better phrase. I think Darko Pancev mention this film was Nolans stop gap between Batmans but on inspection id say it was Bales.
Secondly Nolan took creative license over the book, rightly so considering his talents as a writer with his brother(i think its his bro he works with) but i much preferred both the story telling and the rivalry of the book.
Bare in mind though this doesnt take anything away from the film which is brilliantly crafted as you would expect from the creator of memento.
Thirdly Scarlett Johansson is turning into a walking pair of tits. The emporers got a peroxide hair job as well as some new clothes.
The days of Girl with a Pearl Earing and LIT are long gone in my eyes. She's had two great supporting roles in this and the black dahlia and shes been a donkey in both. She peaked imo.
All in all like i say it really was a good film, Piper Perabo is delicious onscreen. Good performances from Andy Serkis(future Oscar winner imo) , Caine and the bird who plays Bordens wife. id say 7.5 out of 10.

The Prestige is definitely worth watching, 7.5 is an accurate score I'd say. Scarlett Johansson didn't add anything to the film really, but I don't think she detracted from it either
