What was the last movie you watched?

[trailerprincess]

'The Kingdom' I like the look of it (v.much like 3 Kings which I also enjoyed). Thought it was a bit simple in terms of the political/religious slant but quite entertaining. Chris Cooper rocked as normal.

[Randetica]

'imitation of life'

[roosta]

Star Trek

It's really good.

and the Beastie Boys are in it.

[MC Moot]

"The Strangers"...that's probably the smartest scary movie I've seen since "The Orphanage"...Hitchcock would be proud...great tone,lot's of foreshadowing...damned good fun...(y)

B+

The Spirit.

Sometimes it just didn't know what kind of a film at was. It was pretty stylish though and that always resonates with me.

7/10

I couldn't even finish the Spirit. I was so bored.

Nick and Norah's would be awesome if I was a 13 year old hipster wanna be

I saw Choke last night. It made me laugh. Sam Rockwell is the man, my favorite role of his is Guy from Galaxy Quest. Yeah Boyeeee!

[saz]

star trek was awesome. hats off to j.j. abrams for doing a great job rebooting the franchise. bones and nero were definitely the stand-outs for me, excellent performances from urban and bana.

i also thought wolverine was really good as well. i don't know what the critics are talking about, as it really made you forget all about x-men 3.

and i don't get the hate over wanted. i liked it, it was entertaining and funny, an above average popcorn flick.

star trek 5/5

i haven't had that much fun watching a movie for a long, long time.

[ET]

Saw Star Trek yesterday. Brilliant. I couldn't find anything bad to say about it, really. I had to laugh when Kirk was in the Mustang though. Hopefully somebody got paid well off of of that scene... ;)

Saw Choke as well. I felt that the movie was a little too comedic in specific places but it's no big deal. Done as well as it coild have been and couldn't see anyone else playing Victor.

[HEIRESS]

I likr Goya's as well...I wanna see this… (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1104083/)(y)

I've read some less than flattering previews of that film. I'll totally still watch it though!

Goya's Ghosts had a preview for this film (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0796335/) on the dvd so I think that will be my next download

[Deep_Sea_Rain]

Star Trek was incredible. As a fan since birth, I was skeptical going in. However Leonard Nimoy still has it, it remained very faithful to the ST canon, and threw in plenty of awesome references to other Trek series for us hardcore fans.

Had a killer opening weekend commercially also.

[Pres Zount]

I just saw JCVD, and I really, really liked it.

I laughed, I cried. I have a soft spot for The Muscles, and I also have a soft spot for things that break the fourth wall.


Oh, and Into The Wild is great and romantic to boot.

Funny concept. Pretty darn hilarious execution, although a tad slow at moments. Don't watch it though if seeing mutilated genitalia freaks you out.

“Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead”…above average film noir…strong performances by all players…felt very desperate and unsettling…ughhh…I felt queasy at points...

B

Great performances but not the kind of movie that makes you feel like your time was well-spent after watching it. The last movie that made me feel creepy like that was Leaving Las Vegas.

[Pres Zount]

The Baader Meinhof Complex. I give it 7 out of 10. Very German. Ulrike Meinhof reminded me of Dorothy Wood.

Synecdoche, New York

The final scene in that film is insane.

I dunno, and don't judge me too harshly, but that film became one of those stupid 'quotable' films amongst me and my friends. We watched it late one night and it became a cult hit amongst us.

I saw The Wrestler yesterday. It wasn't half as depressing as I thought it would be. The story was pretty heartfelt and O'Rourke was definitely the right guy for the job. 8/10

Up the Yangtze (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV3tQ7G2Ve4)

it was a really well done documentary. I started crying at one point, and pretty much didnt stop for awhile. Something about the main character's father reminded me of my own. Teary eyed city man.

Also watched Food Matters (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4DOQ6Xhqss)

Crazy Love - it's a documentary about a rich guy who obsesses over his ex and becomes a stalker. really interesting take on where the line between love and madness is, a dive into the mind of a stalker.

I don't want to spoil the story but it is a masterfully wierdly awesome movie, best documentary I've seen in a while. Lots of testimonials from really wierd old folks. I love wierd old folks. 9/10

Sonny: You know the lads had this ridiculous idea th...

Richard: Moochin' about.
Sonny: Moochin' about? In my house?
Richard: Mmh
Sonny: Do you always paint men? Like women?... What are you doin' lad?
Richard: That's my concern.
Sonny: Not with being in my house. Where are you staying?
Richard: Motson's farm. Gonna come see me are ya?
Sonny: Maybe I will. You're not afraid of me are ya?
[Richard smiles & shakes head implying he isn't afraid]
Tuff: Why doesn't he just chin him?
Big Al: He's weighing him up, he's weighing him up, shut up.
Sonny: You're making me very nervous, Richard.
Richard: Well you should be. If I were you, i'd get in that fuckin' car and i'd get out of here man. I'd gather them goonies and get whatever you've got comin' mate... 'cause i'm gonna fucking hit you all.
Sonny: I don't like being threatened, Rich'.
Richard: I'm not threatening you mate. It's beyond fucking words. I watched over you when you were asleep and I looked at your fucking neck and I was that far away from slicing it.
Richard: [Richard opens up his hand right hand and points towards his palm] You're fucking there mate!
[Richard clenches his hand]
Richard: So get in that car... and FUCK OFF!
Richard: You get to me first!
Sonny: I just might.

Utter, utter shit. Michael Bay is a hack. I liked the first one, but now I realise it was just the amazement/nostalgia of seeing a Transformers film. He makes completely shit films. Once they had the characters set up he had no idea what to do with them.

[ericlee]

Wathced Revenge of the Fallen at the IMAX.

I have no idea what the plot was, it really made no sense.

I think the only reason they had the airplane jump is so the vice president? could say, "I don't know why we have to jump out of a pefectly good airplane" which is an old and tired term.

The special effects were great but same as the first one, there was too much going on. When they are fighting each other you can't tell who is doing what.

Things I didn't understand is how as a robot when they weren't involved in combat, they're scratched up and dirty and when they transform into a car, they're perfectly clean and spotless.

The movie sucked. They tried too hard to be funny but it blew. I don't think I'll watch the third one if they make it.

[ericlee]

It was basically a 2 hour long over-hyped GM commercial.

antichrist 2/5

mmhm. it's a hard film to explain. i mean, you couldn't say, 'come and watch this film and be entertained/amused/moved/inspired'. it's not like that. i've heard it described as more an event. some people are saying it is 'important for the history of cinema' but i don't think so. when i came out of the screening i didn't really know what to think, but now it's been a few days i like it more than i first did.

it's not genius but neither is it the MOST DISGUSTING FILM EVER as the daily mail keeps on asserting. i knew all the gory/sexual bits were coming (spoiler-but-not-really: for those not in the know it features a woman cutting off her clitoris with a pair of rusty scissors, testicle bashing, passed-out man being manually stimulated to ejaculate blood after said testicle basing, slow motion close up penetration) so perhaps their impact was a bit diluted.. well, as diluted as things that harsh can be.

lars von trier tries so achingly hard to be a provocateur. he acts like a gobby, arrogant teen. antichrist might as well be his middle finger. i don't know. it's gorgeous, it looks beautiful, and the actors do admirably well and give brave performances despite a clunky script (translated into english, and he wrote it when he was depressed - no surprise there) but at the end of the day it's just a bit, well.. dull in between those scenes that look, frankly, as if they could belong in saw or any other standard horror flick.

the most upsetting part of the film is not so much the violence and sex, but the grief. it's more an 'extended grief nightmare' than anything else. variety called it a big fart art film fart. ouch. anyway, it's big and bold but ultimately just a little bit ridiculous. i haven't watched a film that has divided so many people in the audience as this film did in years.

oh and the misogyny.. man, don't get me started. eh.

last movie i saw was "harry potter and the half-blood prince" the day it came out, and it was wayyy better than i thought it would be!! the actor who plays dumbledore was really good in this one...and i thought the whole thing with the boys and girls hooking up and whatever would bother me, but it didn't, although it was pretty silly sometimes. those moments made me laugh, along with other silly moments in the film. but the ending definitely stuck with me, too. overall, very well done. afterwards, my friend told me she cried when...you know!!! DUMBLEDORE DIIIIIIIIIIIIIES!!!!!!!!!

[roosta]

Moon

It was pretty good, but it has some major plot holes.

[Guy Incognito]

i watched 4 films over the weekend

Deep impact - ok - had never seen it before.

Doomsday - awful. nice idea piss poor execution. (n)(n)

Kung Fu Panda - meh.

Love Guru - suprisingly awesome. thought it was gonna stink but its mike myers in full effect.(y)

[Dorothy Wood]

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I really enjoyed it. The reviews said it was too long, but I found myself liking every bit of it and even being disappointed when it was over. ha.

[destructo]

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I really enjoyed it. The reviews said it was too long, but I found myself liking every bit of it and even being disappointed when it was over. ha.

I agree, it was very good. One thing did bother me though. The death of Dumbledore felt a bit rushed.

I also saw Watchmen over the weekend. This movie was too long and detailed... I lost interest and didn't much care what happened at the end.

the friday the 13th reboot and the my bloody valentine remake. probably the worst, worthless pieces of garbage ever.

[Gareth]

rip - a remix manifesto
not the most balanced documentary i've ever seen
then again i got free tix and buggered off from work early to watch it so i cant complain

[Dorothy Wood]

I agree, it was very good. One thing did bother me though. The death of Dumbledore felt a bit rushed.



yeah, there wasn't much of a struggle.

[hpdrifter]

Finally watched The Wrestler last night.

It actually didn't touch me as emotionally as I thought it would. The scene that got me the most was when he forgets about dinner with his daughter and she rips into him. My god what a scene from Evan Rachel Wood. I've been there myself and she really nailed it.

Very sad but not as touching as I expected it to be. Maybe if I'd seen it in the theater...

[mickill]

Maybe it has something to do with your tiny evil blackened heart.

[hpdrifter]

the friday the 13th reboot and the my bloody valentine remake. probably the worst, worthless pieces of garbage ever.

You obviously haven't seen Rob Zombie's redo of Halloween. Definitely the worst, most worthless piece of garbage ever.

[hpdrifter]

Maybe it has something to do with your tiny evil blackened heart.

You know what really got me? Die Hard.

[mickill]

Yeah, you'd have to be an emotional cripple not to feel a little choked up after watching Die Hard.

[Nuzzolese]

yeah, there wasn't much of a struggle.

exactly! Maybe this isn't over.


I just watched My Giant. It was...odd.

[Randetica]

the first hour of cop land

[Randetica]

'scarface'

finally managed to watch the whole thing, in my memory it was more violent but it's still no movie i could get addicted to


p.s. al pacino can have me anytime

[paul jones]

Animal Factory
starring
Willem Dafoe and Edward Furlong and that dude from the second series of The Wire is in it too,the docks boss.

Plot: prison shenanigans

You obviously haven't seen Rob Zombie's redo of Halloween. Definitely the worst, most worthless piece of garbage ever.

I dunno. The first 15-20 minutes were half way decent. The rest did suck balls. Then again, I'm easily amused.

I actually enjoyed the Halloween remake more than the Friday the 13th one.

i thought that was going to be shit but it was really clever and funny.

"Go away, i'm bating":D

[YoungRemy]

idiocracy was the prequel to wall-E...


I saw Watchmen (Jackie Earl Haley as Rorscach (y))

and

Forgetting Sarah Marshall - fucking hilarious

"Crime Scene: Scene of the Crime is an adrenaline pumping, heart stopping drama about a team of forensic investigators trained to investigate crimes by investigating the evidence at the scene of the crime. They are always on duty, collecting the irrefutable, unassailable, incontrovertible evidence needed to prove that the
accused are indeed guilty of the crimes for which they are accused."

Ouch. can you say, dickcicle?

[ToucanSpam]

Burn After Reading. Not bad but a little disappointing. The acting was very good but I didn't like the plot.

[BangkokB]

Burn After Reading is Hilarious! The more I watch it the funnier it gets.

Just got back from the theater from seeing that new Michael Mann movie and Clive Barkers Book of Blood

Choice!!! Had a Corona brought to me every 15 minutes...God I LOVE BANGKOK

[Guy Incognito]

Indiana Jones and the kingdom of the crystal piece of shit.

lakeview terrace. it wasn't bad, better than i though it was going to be. sammy l had the line of the movie "i'm the police you have to do what i say" not quite as good as "enough is enough i have had it with these mother fucking snakes on this mother fucking planes" but still good.

mystic river

it was great, but i can't help but think that laurence fishburne was poorly cast. i'm not sure that character was written with a black man in mind. for one, his name is "whitey powers" and for two, i've been living in boston for three years now and i'm not sure i've ever actually met a black man with a southie accent.

full disclosure - i never go to south boston, but still, it was kind of weird to listen to

[trailerprincess]

^ I love that film

Anyway, In Bruges - loved it. Having spent quite a bit of time there in my year in Belgium it was fun. I would have loved to have seen it with a bunch of locals

In Bruges was cool. Saw Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian last night. It is about a 6/10 but worth seeing (and hearing) the jonas cherubs which are ridiculous:

Rodin's Thinker was had a fine appearance:

pineapple express. it was about 100x better than i expected it to be. i have a weird thing with judd apatow movies lately, where i see the trailers and previews and say "wow, it's seth rogen, and he's high, i bet this will be funny :rolleyes:" but then i actually watch the movie and it turns out to be really really funny and this was no different. i went through the same thing with knocked up and superbad. a lot of cheap laughs and one or two rich ones, i recommend it

what a wonderfully weird film. i am falling in love with mathieu amalric even though he looks a bit satanic. multi-layered and beautiful. lovely film.

home 4.5/5
aahh! fabulous stuff. funny and heartbreaking and superb performances from all the cast. i almost felt a physical relief when isabelle huppert bashed down that brick wall.

[yellow]

"Valley of the dolls" - a good fuckin flick & now one of my favorite movies!

"All about eve"

"the notorious Bettie Paige" different but good

"Bonnie & Clyde"

"Cool hand Luke" - "what we have here is failure to communicate... for the last 5 years folk have told me to watch this flick & i am not quite sure why? i dont really like movies about prison. but atleast i can say i have seen it

"Zack and Miri make a porno" - OMG! i laughed my ass off!!!!!

[Bob]

watchmen

i was in kind of a weird place - i've read the comic book 1.5 times, and that was a while ago, so i was kind of in a place where a lot of the scenes were very familiar (the director was very faithful, at times), and some of them weren't, and i kind of spent a lot of time wondering if things were different because they were new, or if it was just that i wasn't remembering them, and i kind of spent most of the movie doing that rather than properly enjoying it and i feel like i didn't get as much out of it as i should have

that said, a few comments

the casting was mostly dead on - i really liked night owl, and i think rorschach's appearance was perfect. laurie jupiter and modern-day grizzled comedian looked just right, too, but i didn't care for rorschach's voice. it sounded too much like batman in the dark knight, i pictured him as more of a monotone sociopath - maybe something like dexter, but with less inflection. i got used to it, though. i also didn't really care for ozymandias at all. what was that accent? was ozymandias supposed to even have an accent? he didn't really work for me, i'm afraid. dr. manhattan's voice wasn't quite what i was expecting either, i feel like it should have been a little bassier. i mean...look at him. that guy has a deep voice, surely. he sounded like peter parker.

and at first i thought the ending was SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER I'M ABOUT TO RUIN THE ENDING very silly, but then i sat down and thought about it - if you switched the ending of the comic book with the ending of the movie, and the comic book ended with dr. manhattan being set up as the scapegoat for destroying the world, and the movie ended with crazy vagina alien out of nowhere destroying the world, i'd have thought it was about 100x sillier so i dunno. changing the ending was kind of a wierd thing to do, considering how strictly they'd generally stuck to the book, but then again, the movie was already approaching 3 hours long and setting up the vagina alien would have taken at least another 15 minutes so ehh i'll give them a pass.

I'M DONE SPOILING THE ENDING.

my ultimate review is "good, not great". it's no sin city

[Bob]

district 9

great! a really clever premise, and the film itself is a joy to watch. the first act is very tense in the sense that you have this foreboding feeling that something is about to go wrong, but you don't know what it is or when or how it's going to happen. i'm glad i avoided spoilers (such as the one below) because the fact that i didn't know what was going to happen made it all the better when it did happen. then the rest is just a joy to watch. and the thing at the ending where SPOILER SPOILER I'M ABOUT TO RUIN THE ENDING TO ANOTHER MOVIE PLEASE DON'T READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN ITyou see alien wikus making the flower out of tinfoil, and then crushing the edge of it, in the same way that his wife accidentally sat on the paper mache bowl that he made for her and crushed the edge, i dunno...a little tear, right *here*...i'm pointing at my eye

i also liked how, with maybe one exception, not one single character was completely likable. everyone was flawed in some obvious way, especially the main character.

good stuff, good stuff, go see it

Inglorious Basterds

Ah,....i was disappointed. I really like QT, and I loved Kill Bill, but hated Death Proof. This kind of falls inbetween the two of them, but too close to DP.

I appreciate what he's trying to do, but this was too much. Too slow paced, too much dialogue, and he pushed the comic book stuff too far.

"The Fall"...wow...how I missed out on this when it was released is beyond me...it's just fantastic,wicked good...presented by Spike Jonze...what a rich movie...it's beautiful...I can't help but watch and wonder if Terry Gilliam cried when he saw it because it acheives what I think he's worked for for so many years...yep...if you collect movies it should be on your shelf beside The Princess Bride,Time Bandit's,Pan's Labyrinth and Stardust...(y)

Max Manus - 8/10

Norwegian war movie about the true story of a saboteur fighting against the occupying Germans.

[Michelle*s_Farm]

Antichrist (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0870984/): 5/5

Conceptually:

A wonderful re-envisioning of some the major themes contained within
Milton's Paradise Lost. Film would be of interest to English literature scholars specialising in John Milton and/or William Blake.

Cinematography:

Staggeringly beautiful images. Surely of interest to visually oriented viewers.

Importance for film history:

There are several firsts in this film which make it of interest to film historians.

Themes of social and moral importance

Issues related to hubris and redemption should have forced viewers to re-consider their moral judgments (especially knee jerk attitudes of what constitutes right and wrong).

Curse Of The Golden Flower aka Man cheng jin dai huang jin jia (2006) - 6/10

It has one of those plots where you think something really extraordinary is about to happen, and then it never does. There are battles that seemingly involve half the population of China at the time, and endless amounts cleavage occurring in every scene, but it was still kind of a dud. I expected more from Zhang Yimou.

Surfer, Dude (2008) 1.5/10

Wow! I highly recommend this film to all!

No, there was plenty.

It was just all BANG! BOOBS! and then BAM! BOOBS! and then WHAMMO! BOOBS!, KERPLOW! BOOBS! and so on.

They just came out of nowhere like two people are talking and then cut to BOOBS! then resume conversation. This was in no way as awesome as I'm making it sound, btw.

I watched The Other Boelyn Girl this weekend. It didn't get much love here from what I remember but I thought Scarlett and Natalie gave fucking great performances. Seriously, NP really created a character in voice, body, inflection. Even her accent seemed passable to my untrained ear.

The weakest link by far was Eric Bana. Bland, unconvincing, and super uneven. It was like he just built it scene by scene and had no overarching throughline to his performance.

That is the only reason my wife and her sisters watched Wolverine.

[hpdrifter]

Yeah, that really was the only redeeming part of the movie.

Seriously, the shot where he's holding the "dead" body of his girl and he looks up at the sky and screams "NOOOOOO!"

The shot where he's walking away in slow mo while the helicopter burns in the background.

The bits of really cringeworthy dialogue "I'm the only one who kills you".

Wow. Bryan Singer how I miss ye.

Though I think old Hugh deserves an oscar for his eyebrow work in this role. Maybe best special effects or something.
