I saw Red Cliff (2008) directed by John Woo. An epic battle film which was well constructed and interesting. Although the film is complete in itself there is a sequel. Note that there is an International version which combines the two films cutting out about 50% of each film. Also both UK films are cut from the original as they contain scenes of animal cruelty (horses falling on their necks which are not permitted to be shown in the UK).

A couple of films I've seen recently:

 

Miss Potter (2006), the biopic about Beatrix Potter starring Renee Zellweger. A reasonable film but no mention of The Taylor of Gloucester which she wrote during the timespan covered by the film which was a bit dissapointing as I live in Gloucester.

 

The Lake House (2006) starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. Quite watchable and very different from their Speed films. By a strange coincidence The Lake House had a couple of clips from Notorious which I had seen within the last week.

While watching Miss Potter i thought that Emily Watson should have the title role

 

The Lake House is a remake of a South Korean film

I agree, Emily Watson would have been more appropriate. I don't know why the producers decided on Renee Zellweger. She was OK and her English accent was OK but everyone knows she's American.
