This is a film I’ve been waiting for for ages. I missed its short cinema run and this is the first release from the scene. This will probably only appeal to real petrol heads like myself but seeing as its an Aussie movie, I feel compelled to post it. Basically its about Eric Bana and his obsession with cars, particularly his ‘74 XB Falcon, which was his first car. I’m sure there are people out there can relate to this the way I do. Along the way Eric also talks to famous petrol heads like Jay Leno and Jeremy Clarkson about their own motoring obsessions.
Quality: Good looking and sounding DVDRip here from awesome group SAPHiRE
Synopsis: What if you were a Hollywood movie star with an obsession for cars and racing? You would probably read every script with even the tiniest link to the subject matter, in the hope that you could tell a great car story of the likes of “Grand Prix”, “Le Mans” or “Mad Max”. Then one day you happened to open your garage door and sitting there, right in front of you, was the film you had been searching for. This is what happened to Eric Bana and this time around, the co-star is his very own Ford GT Falcon Coupe- THE BEAST. Eric realized the story was in fact, about him, his first car, a lifetime of ownership and a lifetime of friendship. He set about documenting his own 25 year long love story. A simple tale of one man’s ongoing relationship with his very first car. After years of precious restoration, Eric and his 3 closest friends, decided to enter the car into one of the most grueling and dangerous motor races that exists: The Targa Tasmania Rally. This would be a personal Everest for both man and machine, until…on day 4 of the race, tragedy strikes. The man who was hell bent on trying to convey how much he and those around him loved “THE BEAST”, had just destroyed it. Eric has now unwillingly cast himself in his own real life drama. We follow him from inside the race car to the surreal world of the red carpet. This compelling true story follows Eric’s progression as a car lover, and as a person conflicted by what he has done. The personal and social pressures mount up in the face of re building a car that means so much to him.

Ill be honest, I went to the cinema to see this but to allow myself to sit though the whole thing, I decided to drink about 13 cans of Woodstock before-hand. Needless to say, I passed out and ever since have been wating for this DVDRip to come out so that I could actually watch this film (being a Dragonball fan). All I’ve heard about this movie however, is that its pure wank, but I want to see for myself.
Here’s the DVDRip of a new Clive Owen movie, Duplicity. It also stars Julia Roberts and Paul Giamatti. When I first heard about this movie I thought it had potential. Clive Owen is a great actor and one of my favourites but unfortunatley Julia Roberts isn’t. The plot line also sounds a bit like Mr. and Mrs. Smith which I actually liked quite a lot so I think I will check it out.
First I should probably introduce myself. I’m smellygruby, and as those who frequent the forums will know, I’m a moderator there. ReeGed’s lettin me do a sort of “guest” staff pick so I present you all with the astonishingly unknown/unappreciated Léon. I’d heard about this film from a couple of friends who had mentioned that I needed to see this. It looked interesting but I never got around to doing anything about it until the the other day when I realised that Luc Besson (the guy who wrote and directed one of my all-time favourites The Fifth Element) wrote and directed it. Then I remembered he also did Banlieu 13 and Taxi, my two favourite French films so needless to say, I grabbed this release the next second, and if thats not all, an 8.6 on IMDB with over 160,000 votes should tell you a good times viewing is in store, regardless of whether you’re a Besson fan or not.
