I love Nighy and don't think I've see any of these. Thanks.

Re: The Recommended Movies Thread
Bill Nighy is one of my absolute favourites. I was going to say he's never been in a bad movie, but I thought I'd better check that out.

G-ForceBuckley’s Chance review – Bill Nighy’s bad accent fronts an onerous slab of outback flapdoodle
Family film conveys an old-timey, clichéd impression of life in Australia that has ‘exportable’ written all over it
Oh well, a guy has to make a living...Specially trained guinea pigs, Darwin, Blaster, Juarez, Mooch and Speckles, who have different talents, are sent on a mission to scuttle the plans of a power-hungry and sinister billionaire.


This is the way

Re: The Recommended Movies Thread
Love Actually was an abomination IMO
Ps slightly off topic as it's a series but have you seen State of Play? He's in it along with loads of other recognisable Brit actors and it's absolutely superb.
The yanks made a movie out of it(Russell Crowe) and completely ballsed it up

Re: The Recommended Movies Thread
For me Love Actually was so bad that it was good, and I loved Nighy hamming it up.
And speaking about Hugh Grant (which we weren't), Mickey Blue Eyes is one of my favourite films. Not The Man Who Would Be King or Zulu good, but it always makes me laugh.

Soon as I saw Bill Nighy I was gonna mention Dtaai-Maai. 
But the man seems displeased.
Edit: However, he reminded me I need to inject the word 'flapdoodle' more in my day to day.
