What was the last movie you watched?

[MC Moot]

”Chopper” (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0221073/)...aussy crime story...Nothing great but I’ll never see Eric Bana in the same light again…

[venusvenus123]

I think she's quite good.

Zahn was great in Rescue Dawn.

Yes he was good. I don't think I've ever seen him in anything else.

Perhaps Johansson just lacks range. I've only seen her in Lost in Translation but she seemed really wooden in this film, especially next to the woman playing Vicky and Penelope Cruz. It just felt like it was so obvious she was saying lines, aware of everything, just bad.

[abcdefz]

Woody's dialogue can be awfully mannered.

Check out Zahn in Out of Sight. Good flick, great cast.

[Junker]

The Hurt Locker - good but I wouldnt give it an oscar for best film.

Requiem for a Dream - That was intense, shocking, disturbing. Great actings and great story. (y)

[camo]

Kick Ass.

I actually rather liked it. I think the tone was a bit 'all over the place' but I had a really good time watching it as did my friend who expected to hate it.

B+

[hpdrifter]

Finally watched Avatar. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Zoe Saldana ('s character) managed to somehow single-handedly make it watchable.

[MC Moot]

”Night Watch” (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0403358/)...a really good looking, little fantasy/horror in a Russian style...it would have been so much better in original dialogue as opposed to the English dubbing...why there wasn’t an option to watch it in Russian on the disc is a bit confusing...

C+

[hpdrifter]

I've watched it in Russian, I'm losing my ability to follow the language quickly because I never speak it anymore. But I like to see how the dialog is translated. Sometimes it's really funny.

Now I gotta get my hands on Daywatch.

[Baseline]

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

pleasant, interesting .. like it.

[Lyman Zerga]

'inglourious basterds' twice!

i only paid half ass attention when i first watched it, when it was over i kinda regretted that i didnt pay more so a few days later i watched it again and i liked it a lot

[silence7]

Harold and Maude... Why the hell did I wait so long to see this movie. I thought it was going to be all sappy, but it was all death and fun!! Two thumbs up!!

Mammoth (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1038043/)

The copy I had didn't have the subtitles for the Philippines/Thailand portions...I'm assuming there should have been and why they weren't embedded I have no idea....I followed along regardless.

Anyways, good topic, good acting, good movie.

ps. "rachel getting married" :mad:

Black Dynamite (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOyjmppAMI4) was one of the most entertaining movies I've seen in a long, long time. It is outstanding.

[HEIRESS]

The Runaways

yowzers, surprisingly good.
Michael Shannon steals every scene as always.

[MC Moot]

I watched "Lions for Lambs" mostly because I like Robert Redford and mostly because it was Sunday afternoon coming down...not bad...anyone besides Tom Cruise and it might of worked alot better...:rolleyes:

"2012" I just wanted something wild,fun and silly to watch last night and it wasn't any of those...I prefered "Deep Impact" or "Day After Tommorow" for chesse filled diaster fun...

This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. So bad.

[nodanaonlyzuul]

Black Dynamite (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOyjmppAMI4) was one of the most entertaining movies I've seen in a long, long time. It is outstanding.

They had a screening here at a locally owned theater. The director and star came out for it even, and I was out of town that weekend. #$*(@#&%(*@#

[Rock]

Honestly the best thing about it was the trailer for the new nightmare on elm street. Even though Michael Bay dipped his dirty fingers in it, I'm actually excited to see it.

I must have been high when posting this. No surprise, terrible movie.

watched Toy Story on Blu Ray last night. Can't believe that movie came out in 1995!!!

[HEIRESS]

"Daybreakers" aka Gattaca II :[

[Lyman Zerga]

'disturbia'

it had something of some simpsons episodes and of 'the burbs' but i didnt mind too much, i still enjoyed it


the kiss scenes were hot, me want too!

[checkyourprez]

the hurt locker.


it was pretty good. idk if it was all that it was made out to be, but it wasn't a waste of my life.

[MC Moot]

“Defendor”…I thought it was a charming little comic canadian gem…”Please God not the lime juice!”…:D

B

[Guy Incognito]

Paranormal activity - better than i thought. Very well made, not great acting, built up quite well, ending was good

[abcdefz]

The ending was kind of haunting.

I caught a matinee then went to the library, a little unnerved but not bad. I'm on a computer and am suddenly grabbed from behind in a huge hug. I yelled pretty loud. Turned out to be a friend. I apologized to half the second floor, laughing.

[MC Moot]

"Pirate Radio"...didn't like it...usually at my vid store if a movie has a "staff pick" sticker on it it's guaranteed goodness...not this time...it all seemed forced and contrived the whole look of it,wardrobe and all...Philip Seymour Hoffman just bothered me in it as much as Nick Frosts hair piece did...

C-

[gbsuey]

Heartbreak kid. Quality film, love the farrelly bros. aah love love love love love.

Just bought Moon, almost nothing but Sam Rockwell. Noooooooom

[HEIRESS]

"The Book of Eli"

whatevs...

"Shutter Island"

I was expecting it to be heavier on the freaky-deaky...

[gbsuey]

Moon is great, i have a question though but i think it's a total spoiler so i'll leave it.

Eyes wide shut is on right now, first time i've seen it, and I want to throw stuff at it

[abcdefz]

I watched The Visitor last night. I still like it an awful lot, but not as much as when it came out.

[checkyourprez]

ninja assassin - pretty cool. a little over the top but alright for what it was.


the road - well done. im always so interested in how things get to that point in a movie like that but its not always explained. o well. and that mother was a fucking bitch. and that kid was a annoying at times.

[Junker]

3 great classics during this week:

Young Frankenstein, Citizen Kane and Schindler's List.

Went to the movies on thursday and saw this Argentinian film: El Secreto de Sus Ojos (The Secret in Their Eyes) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1305806/)
Great plot, intelligent and funny dialogues. I wasn't expecting too much of it but this one was a great surprise. Highly recommended (y)(y)(y)

Yesterday I watched Terry Gilliam's 'Tideland'. What a freaking disturbing movie. But I really enjoyed it.

And also gave a chance to 'Solomon Kane'. At least it was better than Van Helsing.

[roosta]

Hot Tub Time Machine.

Brilliant. utter nonsense, but its hilarious. And it knows its nonsense.

[JBernas]

Currently watching Planet 51 with the kids a big bowl of popcorn

office space

one of the greatest movies of all time(y)

[checkyourprez]

one of the greatest movies of all time(y)

agreed. that movie, and one scene in particular in that movie has had a legitimate positive effect on my life.

when hes talking about humans were not made to sit in a cubical all day and blablabla, i really feel its true. we only get one life, im not going to spend it being some cog in a system to make some other guys a bunch of money doing some shit i hate. if im going to be a cog its going to be something i like!! even if i dont make a ton of money, im not ruled by the material.

[MC Moot]

I went 2 for 2 this weekend...

”Ong bak 2”... (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0785035/)how great is Tony Ja?...amazing,so good...can’t wait for part 3...three piece staff!...(y)

public enemy - kinda cool. a little long.

jumpers - i liked. a little short.

[JoLovesMCA]

Shrek. I didn't think it could be better than the previous but it really was. I went because it was mentioned that the BB's music was in the film so that was a really cool part of the film but it really was cool. (y)

[jabumbo]

bladerunner - in the future, the earth is always dark and rainy. it sort of bothers me when you only find out why all of the action through the entire movie is happening until the last 20 minutes.


district 9 - enjoyed this one. i really liked the whole take on things. if something like this were to happen, this would totally be how it went down.

[JBernas]

Just watched the Messenger last night(y)

[TAL]

Not Quite Hollywood (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_Quite_Hollywood)

21 Grams - Fucking Great! (y)(y)(y)(y)

Never Sleep Again

A 4 hour documentary about the Elm Street movies.

[faz]

Mystery team (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxx1vOhlqmM)

I've been wanting to see it ever since I first seen the trailer. It totally lived up to my expectations.

[TAL]

Never Sleep Again's bonus stuff.

Almost 4 hours more.

[TAL]

His Name Was Jason

Documentary about the Friday 13th movies. More boring than watching 8 hours about Elm Street.

[Guy Incognito]

Gran Torino. Awesome. Really enjoyed it.

[ericg]

Just watched the Messenger last night(y)

the last movie i watched was invictus, but the one before it was the messenger. both were very good. i cried, laughed... what more can i say?

[jabumbo]

watched "made" last night. didn't really care for it that much. the storyline was fine, but vince vaughans character was just too much for me. i wanted to punch him in the face so hard.


watched "swimming pool" today. sort of slow moving but had some nice twists and turns in it. a few unanswered questions afterwards makes me really wonder about it. plus, i wasn't complaining about the young french girl who didn't have a top on for half of her scenes.

[NicRN77]

Toy Story 2. I'm all ready for Toy Story 3 in 3D!

[JBernas]

Gran Torino. Awesome. Really enjoyed it.

GREAT flick!

[ToucanSpam]

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. It wasn't as good as I remember it, but it had its moments. It felt a little like 2 hour filler to a bigger plot. I guess we'll wait and see how Death Hallows (Part 1 and Part 2) pans out.

[Guy Incognito]

watched Coraline today, didnt think me duaghter was old enough to concentrate on it and was prepared to see about 10 minutes but she lasted the distance surprisingly. Not bad, pretty trippy for a kids film

[Junker]

Farenheit 451

[roosta]

Sex and the City 2

Absolutely horrible, offensive, detestable shit.

I knew it would be bad, but I had no idea it would be this bad.

My girlfriend missed all the opportunities to see it with her friends and refused to see it alone so begged me.

She paid!

I was one of only two men in the cinema and we gave each other a knowing nod.

I really enjoyed Made. I know a lot of people didn't like it because they wanted to compare it to Swingers. Loved the Screech scene and Columbo was good in it.

[ericg]

Observe and Report.

I felt like it had it's moments but never really reached where it was trying to go. I just didn't believe Seth Rogen as a serious type. Awkward and delusional yes but serious and motivated?

extraordinary measures with harrison ford and brendan fraser.
pretty damn good considering it's based on a true story.

Sherlock Holmes (2010)

I really enjoyed it, although Downey Jnr seem to spend the entire film mumbling his lines. I also can't be doing with Guy Ritchie but at least this picture proves he can direct without all his usual ostentatious pomp. I think the only thing that related it to his usual style was the slow motion parts but I actually found them to be pretty cool.

[gbsuey]

A Single Man- really nice, beautiful styling (of course,it's Tom Ford) and i take back anything bad i ever said about Colin Firth, he's just fab. A bit slow but just really nice!

Hurt Locker- it was good but didn't think it was THAT good.

this movie was slow, but I still think Colin Firth was fabulous in it. How could you ever say anything bad about him? He is a phenomenal actor.

[jabumbo]

rachel getting married - sort of over dramatic for my tasted, but it was enjoyable. at least the story seemed to cover most of the missing holes or what had happened in the past to explain certain things. drives me mad when movies don't do that. and still sort of enjoy anne hathaway even as a recovering druggie.

[gbsuey]

this movie was slow, but I still think Colin Firth was fabulous in it. How could you ever say anything bad about him? He is a phenomenal actor.

I said he was dull a while back when Nastee said she was gonna interview him at work, which was proper shite really because i don't know that for sure and even more shite seeing as i have no doubt his life's a squillion times more interesting than mine!

Yeah it was a bit slow, but nice to look at. Made me think Tom Ford is maybe quite sad a lot of the time.

The Bad Lieutenant : Port of Call - New Orleans

Bat shit crazy. Insane. This is one of the oddest mainstream films to ever play at my local cinema. Pure utter madness.

But lots of fun to watch too.

I don't even know if its a good film or not; its too strange.

'England Made Me'
early 70's pre ww2 borefest..

The sound was so low I had to turn the volume up way more than usual.Michael York film about some english dude who goes away to sea then returns meeting his sister in Paris.She's the girlfrien of this rich businessman in Germany.So they go to Germany so his sis can get him a job for the company.This is around 1935 so there's lots of Nazi stuff.I was very upset that the scene where Tessa Wyatt gets her tits out was cut so I stopped watching after that.

That movie was so weird. I mean I don't know what to think of it. It was really creepy like no other film I'd seen before. I liked it though.

I watched Gamer last night and was annoyed. I like Sci-Fi and and all but this was a bit too over the top for me.

Dirty Harry

My dad wanted to watch it one night while visiting for the 4th. (that or to keep my mom away from the television)

[NicRN77]

Taking Woodstock-pretty good.

[HEIRESS]

"A Single Man"
a pretty little movie.

"Youth in Revolt"
I can't lie, it got some laughs out of me.

"Land of the Lost"
my bad.

Finally saw Shutter Island. I had the same thought as a-z about the end.

Also watched Legion this weekend. Sort of confusingly straightforward but I enjoyed.

[roosta]

Anvil! : The Story of Anvil

Loved it. Such a great film. There's one scene near the very end which is one of the most heartwarming things i've ever seen.

Frost/Nixon

Pretty interesting, but part of me was wishing I was just watching a documentary about Nixon. Still, entertaining.

To Kill A Mocking Bird
Was being shown to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the publication of the book. Haven't seen it in ages, still wonderful. I Can't think of a better adaptation of a book, ever.

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAcrIr84OdQ)I’d never heard about this Viggo movie which was based on a series of adventure books...I’m a sucker for the subject matter...wicked Spaniards versus the dastardly Dutch ...the 80 years war...2nd largest budget film ever made in Spain... Viggo's espanol es muy impresionante...(y)

Spirited Away

A M A Z I N G. One of the greatest things I have ever seen. Totally blown away.

[Guy Incognito]

i know this is a thread where we put the movie and what we thought but i would like to share this with you all.

Indiana Jones and The last crusade was on the box on sunday and my 4 year old decided she wanted to watch so i thought we would humour her and at some point she would get a bit spooked (thought it me a bit too much for her) and ask to turn it over. Didnt happen, she loved it, asked loads of questions, liked a lot of the action scenes. I was quite proud of her in a silly way.

However, during the end scene where the german lady slips the down the chasm after trying to get the grail, my daughter was very quiet. She didnt say anything about it for a while and carried on playing. Then the following conversation took place:

Daughter: Why did the woman fall down the hole?
Me: cos the man couldnt hold on to her
Daughter : Why?
Me: Cos she reached for the cup
Daughter: Why?
Me: Cos she really wanted it but couldnt reach
Daughter : And why didnt she come back?
Me : Cos it was a really big hole.

This conversation and slight variations took place at regular 5 minute intervals for the next 3 hours. SLowly, I managed to explain some of the concepts in that scene and she slowly started to understand.

I even had to do a reconstrcution of the scene when my daughter was in the bath with me being the german lady, my daughter being Indiana Jones and a tigger bath toy being the holy grail. She was having serious trouble with the physics of indy letting go.

Two days later she is still asking about it, she seems to understand the lady was being greedy and that Indy had to let go but its obviously still on her mind. I feel a bit bad for letting her watch now.

Oh and we watched Nanny McPhee, it was all right and she didnt ask any questions afterwards!

[MC Moot]

^Maybe you should show her the Python take on the Grail next...:D

[Guy Incognito]

^Maybe you should show her the Python take on the Grail next...:D

yeah, i can see it now. We show her that and then when i pick her up from nursery, the staff pull me to one side and say "your daughter has been disruptive today by breaking wind and telling all the kids "I will fart in your general direction"!

[MC Moot]

^I’d be more concerned about the rabbit!... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcxKIJTb3Hg);)

Green Zone.

good action thriller. an entertaining way to spend a couple of hours. seems like it did terribly at the box office. must be tough when even Matt Damon makes you feel bad about yourself.

'Death Proof'

Not the best Taratino movie but entertaining as well.

[Echewta]

Dont Answer the Phone! - Halarious.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - Didn't like it as much as the book.

Before the Devil Knows Your Dead - horrible.

North Face - Blah.

Zombieland - It was ok.

I ditto that...great suspense,sorrow and suburban mania...true story to boot...when a really bad plan goes really bad...solid film noir...(y)

I didn't know it was a true story. Whoa.

It's also one of the few movies where Ethan Hawke acts well. He's usually in the good-to-insufferable range.

I found it predictable and boring. I could have cared less about any of the characters. Just a movie that went no where with good actors.

i'm with you on this.


it just didn't feel like anything for me. i think philip seymor hoffman sort of annoys me on a certain level though. while i like his ass an actor, his characters always seem to bug the hell out of me

”This Movie is Broken”... (http://www.thismovieisbroken.com/)this will be my official summer of 2010 film...it so dreamy, warm and full of possibility...fresh love...Bruce McDonald and Don Mckellar at it again this time with Canada’s “indy” darlings on the stage...not quite like any concert movie you’ve ever seen before...(y)

cop out with bruce willis and tracy morgan. pretty good. has a beastie track just to kick things off.. among other good ones in it.

[Guy Incognito]

Last 3 Days Viewing:

Observe and Report - pretty good, not as naff as i expected.

Toy Story 3 - first time at the cinema for my daughter , unbelievably got to see whole movie without a toilet break. Brilliant film.

Edison - this shit action thriller loads of people in it (Spacey with a ridiculous barnet/Cool j/Timberlake/Freeman/Kevins dad in home alone(?)) it had a couple of good bits but was a bit pants

The first 3 shrek films - good
The Rugrats Movie - not bad
G-Force - toss

[JBernas]

'the color purple'

One of my favorite books and my favorite contemporary author.....Alice Walker also writes fantastic short stories(y)

[roosta]

The A-Team

I quite liked it, it was good fun. It was true enough in spirit to the show. But it moved way to fast and employed way to much flashback like the makers were terrified that at any moment people would be slightly behind the story.

[JoLovesMCA]

(y):)

This is crazy. I just logged on to say I had just seen Repo Man and so did two other folks. Cool. At first I was a little disappointed at how unreal the movie seemed to be. I mean I know it's a movie but the whole plot didn't seem like it would get far with me. By the middle of it I was totally into it. Forest and Jude were great together. I did not see that ending coming though. Was really bummed but the action and blood were great. Love gore!!! :D

[Lyman Zerga]

'the bridges of madison county'

documentary the Bridge. Very depressing.

One of those movies I admired more than I like. That being said, I didn't really admire it that muh, either.

[HEIRESS]

It's one of those movies where you hate the main character so much that it makes you in turn hate the film as a whole even though the film-maker did a decent job.

I had the same problem with the film "Happy-Go-Lucky"

Stiller's character sort of reminded me of someone I know in real life so that was part of my dislike as well. :/

[abcdefz]

You'll want to avoid Margot at the Wedding, then. But catch The Squid and the Whale if you haven't seen it already. It's fantastic. (y)

Jeff Daniels plays someone who's pretty insufferable, too, but in a very entertaining way.

[checkyourprez]

KickAss


i tried to find the thread on it, i remember there being one. i remember it initially being focused on how the little girl says cunt and swears and kills people or whatever instead of the movie itself. but anyway..


that movie was pretty fucking sweet. highly recommended to someone who likes kill bill esq violence, and crude laughs.

[Caribou]

Lolz, last weekend I watched both Zombieland and Kickass.
Kickass was AWESOME.

I also watched Battle Royale 1 and 2. 1 is a work of genius, 2 is a large bowel movement.

[Echewta]

The Expendables

It had old people and explosions.

[JoLovesMCA]

LOL @ old people and explosions!

I watched Brainscan again the other night. It made me remember how much I loved Edward Furlong back in the day. Would love to see him make a big film come-back. :D

[ericg]

death at a funeral.
it was pretty funny. about the same as the first one though, only a black version which i gotta say might've been better. i'm a sucker for the characters in it.

next i'm going to watch chariots of fire. it looks a little gay but it could be good.

[abcdefz]

Uh... keep your expectations low. ;)

[camo]

I re-watched Serenity last night. Still a fantastic little piece of sci adventuring.

[NicRN77]

What About Bob? I heart Bill Murray.

[ericg]

i didn't watch chariots.. i just watched the joneses. it was pretty good too.

[BBboy20]

The ExpendablesOh, forgot to mention that I saw that on the 13th too... *scratches head* hhmm, must be the SP Fever.

It was okay. Good cinematography. The cast was good except Lucas Black. Usually I like his work but he was kind of amateur in this except one moment you could tell he improvised with a baby.

6.5/10

for some reason I started watching it at 1.30am last night. political thrillers are usually terrible books, but I always enjoy them as films.

The Book of Eli - hmmm.... good. Nice fight scenes
The Line - Ray Liotta looks like he has been frozen in time, Andy Garcia does not.
District 9 - entertaining
The Girl with the dragon tattoo - ace. Off to see part 2 today.

[Guy Incognito]

if i really posted evrytime i watched a movie it would ruin this thread seeing as i watch over 20 kids films a week.

Watched the first nanny mcphee yesterday though, it was ok. classic british really, the kids thought it was piss funny but i only smiled a few times.

[JoLovesMCA]

I finally watched Oscilloscope's "Burma VJ" and couldn't believe the things I seen. I mean I can believe them but usually in our news we get little snippits of what is happening in other countries. This was 85 minutes of secret recordings. I am so thankful to live in a country where we aren't held captive like this. It was really sad but I am glad I watched it. I am gonna watch "Flow" next. Then I guess I'll understand better why MCA is sooo anti water bottles.

Not wack at all.
Very average though.

I remember the big "I love you" revelation scene actually utilised the line "Yo, I got mad love for you shawty, on the real". From a white man.
