    It's good
    I've got it on blue ray and there's some great scenes visually

    I remember at the time it was highly rated, didn't it win some Oscars too? Heath Ledger too of course

    Not sure about Oscars, but well worth a watch for the opening bank robbery alone

    It got 8 Oscar nominations and won 2, one of them being Best Supporting Actor for Heath Ledger.


    Bojack, you need to get the whole trilogy watched. The first two are fantastic, and the third is good but admittedly a step down.

    Saw that myself, it's a decent watch. After that there was an old Brit gangster thing on, We Still Kill the Old Way. B-movie stuff but better than equivalent US B-movie standard.

    Watched the first episode of Billions this morning on Sky. Looks promising, albeit the pilot episode's script was laden with clunky exposition.

    Burn After Reading was on last night, I watched it again, but it was a bit too soon after the last time I saw it.

    I watched We Still Kill The Old Way last night, it's the story of an old East End gangster (Ian Ogilvy) who returns from Spain to avenge the death of his brother. His brother was kicked to death while stopping a bunch of chav ****ers (the E2 gang) from raping a young girl.

    It was basically four old blokes killing off about twenty chav ****ers one at a time, far too much 'kill the sket' and 'init bruv' going on. 4/10.
