Very excited here in Australia because 4 movies i have been at least 12 months for finally arrive next thurs 14/8.

This is what my bigscreen marathon is going to be-

CYPHER- which looks incredible and is from the director of THE CUBE which is an all time fave. Potential to be a top notch mind screw.

BUFFALLO SOLDIERS- after the US boo hoo hooing about post September 11 this one got bumped because it shows US soldiers as they really are- should be an awesome black comedy.

NARC- finally a decent cop film, been dying to see this for ages.

INTACTICO- (This one is at the Brisbane Film Festival) yet another high quality supernatural spanish thriller the directors debut film has been described as similar to the work of Christpher Nolan, M Night Shymlan and David Fincher.




So thats what Im doing next Thursday- has anyone seen CYPHER or INTACTICO, if so is are they as good as they look???

Cant' answer your quekkie, mate, as I'm here in Oz too! Though I admire your mental strength if you can finish your marathon, man! ;)

Hanging to see Narc and Buffalo Soldiers (which I'm seeing as the closing film to this year's Melbourne International Film Festival!)

I'd post a topic on my thoughts on this year's great MIFF, if I wasn't so lazy. :rolleyes:

Well I'm not exactly in Australia (Scotland actually) but I have seen Buffalo Soldiers (Great movie, 8/10) and Intacto (7/10, not as much fun on your second watching). I quite fancied Narc and Cypher hasn't been released over here.

Been hearing good things about NARC, INTACTO and CYPHER (the latter from the director of CUBE) so I'd at least check those out.
