What was the last movie you watched?

[TAL]

Wanted

I'd never heard about the comic before the thread appeared here, so I can't compare the two things.
But this was ok if you like shooting and swearing.

[adam_f]

Just saw Wall-E. Didn't like it but I'm not the target audience either.

[TAL]

Top Gun with rifftrax.

Those guys weren't funny at all. Good thing the movie saved the experience.

[paul jones]

I don't know wether to watch Blazing Saddles or Napoleon Dynamite which I bought recently cheap,cos you should only buy DVD's when they go down to £6 or less because stores rip you off.

Yeah, I know. But, again: I had to kill some time.

Wanna see a really bad trailer? Check out Disaster Movie or Step Brothers. Oh wow.

[roosta]

The trailer for Step Brothers starts promising, and you think "hey, Will Farrell has turned it around!" then......Zzzzzzzz. Same oul stuff.

Man on Wire looks Amazing....most intriguing trailer ive seen in a long time...

Funny Story: I bought Che and it was not the one you're thinking but some Art House crap movie. Watched it and took it back for In Bruges, The Ruins, and The Cry. My expectations are low for all of these movies but that's the way I like it

[mate_spawn_die]

i've been wanting to see that.

i think i'm one of the very few that dislike it.

[Guy Incognito]

Finally saw "Cars" after avoiding it a few times - it was on Sky Premier yesterday. It was alright but not up there with most of pixar stuff. Some nice little gags but it was too much for kids wheras some othe other pixar films have kept all ages interested a bit more.

[camo]

Wanted.

I saw the trailer and scoffed at it's levels of nonsense, but then I realised it was being directed by Nightwatch director Timur Bekmambetov so I gave it a go and was pleasantly suprised. It's actually really good fun and the special effects are very stylish and full of subtle little touches.

I thought the trailer looked awful, too. But the movie's good!?

I might go see that today.

[Rock]

I might go see that today.
you probably won't like it.

Hulk. It was alright. Nowhere near as good as Iron Man as people were saying. It did start off pretty strong in Brazil, but slowed down here and there. too many "i love you" kind of scenes...but if I remember correctly, Bruce was always a sucker for the ladies, so I could look past that.

Wanted. I liked it. I wasn't expecting it to be great and it wasn't. But it was a fun movie. Some parts were predictable. But it still had its moments. And the over the top action sequences were entertaining.

Hatchet. Pretty bad. semi-decent for a B horror movie. A couple of good/hilarious kill scenes, but thats about it.

[camo]

I thought the trailer looked awful, too. But the movie's good!?

It's not amazing but as far as special effects driven movies go it's quite credible and not as cheesy as the 'Angelina Jolie spinning a car about and sweaping a fella off his feet' scene in the trailer.

Besides Morgan Freemans in it playing a cool head assasin role so thats half the price of your ticket redeemed already.

[Rock]

Super High Me

Not as funny as I thought it would be. Only a couple of decent laughs in the whole thing.

[abcdefz]

Get Smart.

Not too good. About five chuckles and two laughs.

Anne Hathaway is good. Alan Arkin had the only line that really made me bust. Carrell had one little aside that was genuinely funny
(at the end of the parachute rescue).

C-.

[Yeti]

Super High Me

Not as funny as I thought it would be. Only a couple of decent laughs in the whole thing.

I saw it the other day and it was horrible. I kept watching him smoke and did you notice that he never inhaled? He would puff his cheeks out and quickly blow out the smoke. He seemed like a wannabe to me and the medical aspect of the film was out of place.

D

[Rock]

...did you notice that he never inhaled? He would puff his cheeks out and quickly blow out the smoke.

yes, I did notice that. Maybe it had something to do with some sort of legal issue of him smoking pot on film? :confused:

I do see why he didn't make it on Last Comic Standing final rounds.

Eagle Vs. Shark

Very good.

I liked it...but then I was super baked when I watched it. that always helps.


I recently saw:

Charlie Bartlett.

I liked it. a lot. It was really good until about the last half hour, when the pace slowed down and its was all about tying up the plot in a neat little package. it was somewhat anti-climactic. But up until that point there were a lot of laughs.

[taquitos]

Mongol. it's funny how americanized movies around the world have gotten, but I
suppose this was a little more thoughtful than the hollywood version might have been.

I very much enjoyed the subject matter and the locals, and thus I enjoyed the film,
despite it's awkward moments. i look forward the the next two installments as they
know more factual information about the khan's later life, so maybe they won't be as ridiculous.

^ yes it is. this has been a popular film in this thread lately.

i just watched "the children"

Released in 1980, The Children went on to become a box office smash and one of the top grossing films of that year. Lost for over two decades, Troma Entertainment, with the assistance of Writer/Producer Carlton J. Albright, has gone to great lengths to track down one of the only surviving original prints to create an exclusive new digital transfer of this legendary cult classic!

After their school bus drives through a yellow cloud of nuclear waste, the children of a small town are transformed into atomic zombies with a lust for blood and carnage!!!

[trailerprincess]

The Interpreter - I still can't abide Nicole Kidman but Sean Penn more than made up for her tribute to blandness

[Caribou]

Into the Wild

It was still playing in a small theatre, there were only 6 people there.
What an awesome film, so beautiful. Makes you think about life and that it's all just bullshit.

Also, we had vodka so maybe the mild tipsyness helped to enhance the atmos. I'd totally watch it again.

[beastieangel01]

finally saw Gone Baby Gone, and really, really liked it. (y)

and I want a boyfriend like Casey Affleck's character. If he looks like him too that'd be bonus.

The Bucket List - I was stuck in my german hotel last night and there weren't that many options. It was dreadful - neither sad or funny. The bloke from Will and Grace was the only vaguely amusing character.

ha ha, everytime my roommate and I go to the video store, we pass by the bucket list, and I say, "should we get the bucket list?" and she says, "no!"

the word "bucket" is funny.

anyway, I saw Hancock, but I already talked about that in the Hancock thread.

saturday night I put on Clockwork Orange before I went to bed, and it's really disturbing. I mean, I own it, and I've seen it probably 10 times or so, but I was really watching it hard and it made me feel upset. :/ I was also high. so whatever.

I'm just about to watch ' ZemanovaLoad' starring Ed Byrne

I saw it in Stars Newsagents for £3.99 today

The images of Veronica Zemanova on the cover caught my eye and I wondered what was a DVD of her doing in such a low place,next to the family films.Then I realise it was a comedy about one man's obsession with Veronica Zemanova

Wall-E

Its OK. I was kinda underwhelmed to be honest. Don't see the big hullaballoo

[saz]

the dark knight was incredible. extremely intense and an emotional rollercoaster. ledger was the quintessential villian and joker, utterly perfect. but if there is anyone who may receive an oscar nomination, it could be aaron eckhart. his role as harvey dent/two-face was huge and he gave the performance of his career. this one was completely different from the first film, and i can't wait to go and see it again.

[DipDipDive]

Overnight

It was good. Troy Duffy is a fucking idiot.

The Dark Knight - Awesome. A little too long, but thats ok. Pretty much what everyone has been saying.

Semi-Pro - Strong start.....fell asleep about 40 minutes in. I thought I would give it a chance because when Talladega Nights came out all I did was talk smack about how it was going to suck. Finally saw it and thought it was terrible. Watched it again....and liked it...a lot. But I don't see that happening with this one. Again, really funny beginning but it falls off, real quick.

Charlie Bartlett - Weak. It was like they wanted to make a Pump Up the Volume meets Ferris Bueller's Day off movie and failed miserably. It blew dick.

over the last few weeks i have seen

The Island, pretty good but i still hate ewan mccgregor
Serenity - meh
City of God - that was well wicked
The Lives of Others - it didn't live up to my expectations and i thought it was a bit over rated
Goodbye Lenin - yeah it was good, quality film
300 - wow, that was an over hyped absolute pile of shit
Intacto - really good but i couldn't get pendulum's voodoo people out of my head while watching it

Control

it was about Ian Curtis. depressing. good performances, but kind of fakey seeming in the beginning. also, didn't really go dark enough to set the scene for his change in personality and subsequent suicide.

I love samantha morton. she is a pretty terrific actress.

[Rock]

Sunshine - decent movie...all the blurry "cool" camera shots got annoying as balls, but it was a decent movie overall. Seeing it on Blu-ray definitely made it more enjoyable.

[NoFenders]

Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)

Real estate salesmen go to strange measures to get ahead. Kept me interested the entire time.

Al Pacino,Jack Lemon,Kevin Spacey,Alec Baldwin,Ed Harris, Alan Arkin, and Jonathan Pryce.

me too! i didn't watch it all through but it's an old fave-i love the abba routine they do. it's kind of in the same vein as priscilla qotd-i soooo wanted to be drag queen by the end of that!!

do you not think the swimmer guy she marries has the best "smacked arse" expression

i watched War of the Worlds for the first time-kind of liked it but until the end it's just a bit too grim for my liking-one heap of shit happens after another-phew

The fiance loves David Lynch and he said his favorite one is Lost Highway.

I will say Lynch manages to coax some pretty impressive performances from his actors.

I completely love David Lynch-Eraserhead was the first thing i saw that properly freaked me out and Twin Peaks is genius but i just don't get Lost Highway. I guess i need to watch it more but it went way over my head

I saw King Of Comedy for the first time ever...well, most of it...i fell asleep for the last 30 minutes..which is no comment on the film, it was on very late and i was knackered. I actually loved it...fuck me de Niro is good in this. I had always heard he was good in this...but he's really, really good.

Cant wait to see the end...

[abcdefz]

He's amazing in that. My favorite performance of his. He just disappears.

The movie runs a little long, but it's worth it. Scorsese's mom yelling at Rupert in the basement is great stuff.

It ain't perfect, but it's in my top three.

Look for Joe Strummer and the boys, too -- they're on the sidewalk heckling Masha for about two seconds. (y)

What's the line -- "I keep getting older, and they stay the saaaaaaaaaaaaame age."

Something like that.

Funny to see Ben Affleck in there, too.

Almost: "That's what I love about these high school girls, man. I get older, they stay the same age."

It's also funny to see how Milla Jojovich doesn't say a single word in it. Only when she sings 4 or 5 words of a song.

[abcdefz]

I wish that one kid who played the lead didn't have that mannerism where he grabs the bridge of his nose every twenty seconds to express...
well, pretty much anything. Linklater really should have stepped on that a bit.

He did that same thing in Mallrats. Unless it was his twin brother playing that role...

[abcdefz]

I almost looked him up on IMDB a minute ago to see if he'd been in anything else. I'm kinda surprised he got another acting job, actually.
Probably the worst acting in a lead role in a really good movie since that horrible in actress in Nightmare on Elm Street. Man, she was bad.

:(

After it was over (:)) I tried to think of a single movie of around an hour and a half's duration that actually felt paced well and not rushed. Red Eye came to mind but not much else.

Me: Paranoid Park. Pretty good.

Gerry>Elephant>Paranoid Park>Last Days

[milleson]

^ Bingo.

The oldest one has strep throat, so we were in desperate need of a movie we could all agree on.

It did take my love of Bill Murray down a notch, though. I might have to watch Caddyshack tonight just to return order to the world.

it's about 50/50

im in a movie exploring era lately, till i get tired of it again and stop watching movies for like a half year

but i sure would never watch 'garfield' just the way the cat face is made is so damn annoying that i want to beat the shit out of the screen (n)

go back to ball scratching

[Junker]

^^ The best activity ever.

[Caribou]

Ken Park - (n) I thought Kids was good, so I thought I'd give this one a try, but it sucks ass. No story, annoying characters, just some random 'shocking' images. Utter waste of my 5 euros.

Chasing Amy - Because I found a Kevin Smith DVD box I'd forgotten about and remembered how much I like his films. I hadn't seen this one yet and I really liked it. Though I'm not a fan of Affleck (I dunno, his face tends to annoy me) I thought he was alright in this. Typical Smith dialogue, lesbians, comic book geeks and, rather importantly, Jason Lee, who does not only look ridiculously hot, but also kicks Affleck's butt in the acting department.

Next up: Mallrats and Clerks 2. Also never seen.

[Dorothy Wood]

Penelope

I'm still watching it actually. It's way gay.

the colors are gorgeous though. the acting is fine. costumes are good. I think what's ruining it is that her pig face really wasn't that bad looking. and there's narration, which usually kills a movie. also, I don't get why half the people are british, half are american. and why some of the british/scottish people that are in it are using american accents.

honestly, I think what ruins it most is the music. it just doesn't have any emotional weight at all.

the only reason I'm even still watching it is because james mcavoy is fucking hot. and the colors, they really are beautiful.

[mate_spawn_die]

albert fish

interesting information with terrible acting. it was a semi-documentry... like A&E i guess. i would have enjoyed it more if it was just pictures of crime scenes and joe coleman narrating. the re-enactments were so silly.

albert fish should be in the overated/underated thread i made cause he is seriously underated. one of the most fucked up serial killers ever. fuck charles manson, he's a teletubbie compared to fish! charles manson isn't even a serial killer!

[mate_spawn_die]

Are you crying because it's a bad movie or because Henry the Serial Killer --

I think Robert Duvall turned down a low paycheck for Godfather III to make bucks on Days of Thunder, if I remember right.

because its a terrible terrible movie (I don't get the Henry the serial killer thing). And I generally like cheesy movies from the 80s. Hell, I watched Karate Kid 2 last night on TV for no apparent reason! But this one... jeez, just bad. Boring, lame, dumb pandering bits that didn't work.

OMG! I just finished watch it about 3 hours ago. And I make mine your wise words.
Booooring!!

Fortunately I watched The Man in the Iron Mask in sequence. I had the chance to see double Leos!!! :)(y)

[BangkokB]

Does anyone watch Dexter? I used to spark up and watch it and thought that every character was dysfunctional or socially awkward in some form or fashion and thought maybe it was the bud. Then I watched it just drunk and not high and realized that my 1st assessment was right: They are all weird.

Good show though

Do you think genetics makes a person a killer or they choose to be? I come from the school of thought that a person makes a conscious decision to be a serial killer- I do believe that once you cross that line with the 1st kill that it'd be hard to stop but it's an interesting show at any rate.

requiem for a dream

at first i thought it was a bit crap--hackneyed, obvious and all done before.

the second half was better and i thought the old lady's storyline was brilliant.
jesus, it's a lesson in why it's probably a good idea to get a hobby/try to keep a life as you age :(


all in all, fucking intense!
...and depressing
at least with spun there was some humour :|

One of the best musical score to ever grace a screen. Clint Mansell and the Kronos Quartet...If you like strings. But download Requiem for a Dream Remix or better yet try Lord of the Rings: Two Towers version

[venusvenus123]

yes, the music was amazing.... in tune with every feeling on the screen.

intense!

i'm hoping brokeback mountain will provide a good antidote tonight. :o

[abcdefz]

It is a great score. I notice it keeps getting recycled in trailers now and then, kind of like Miller's Crossing's score kept showing up.

[Lyman Zerga]

there will be motherfucking blood

[venusvenus123]

^^i thought daniel day lewis was over-acting in the extreme in that movie. i couldn't take it seriously. i'm pretty sure he's completely overrated, although i haven't seen all his movies so i could be wrong!


anyway, brokeback mountain: i loved it. i cried. i love ang lee... beautiful film. heartbreaking :(

i never seen another movie with him before
i thought his acting was ok but not oscar worthy or anything

the screaming voice of the churchie guy made me lol

[na§tee]

man on wire.

i saw it by myself cos i got dingied (highland turns of phrase for you, there) but absolutely no regrets!

what a wonderful, wonderful little film! one of my favourites this year, i think. i want philippe to be my loony older uncle or something - what a daring dude.

brilliantly made. i urge everyone to go and see it!

He pitched his performance to suit the film. I thought it was great.

Check out My Left Foot, The Age of Innocence, My Beautiful Laundrette, or The Ballad of Jack and Rose for some other Day-Lewis performances.

ooooh. weeeelllll. how bad is your fear of heights? what floor of a building could you comfortably look out from?

there are certainly some scenes - photography and film (although they dont have the twin tower walk on archive film - only the sydney harbour bridge/notre dame ones) - that make you go woooooaahhh - dude is crazy, but they don't linger on them to an enormous extent. but eh. maybe, maybe not. again, depends on your fear. he's not just, like, walking between the twin towers. he's freakin' lying down.. and kneeling and SALUTING! it's not just a quick one-two jaunt from one side to the other.

i would give it a go, and if it really irks you, leave. but it is well, well worth it and a fantastic piece of planning, luck, genius and downright balls.

[abcdefz]

I can look out from a building -- like, if I'm looking out at the horizon, I'm good. It's just that if I look down or think about looking down or
see someone in a situation where they could fall from any decent height or think about it, I start to get sick. Like, climbing up on a roof
gives me serious sweats. Getting up on a chair to change a bulb in the ceiling gives me a little bit of queasy.

I've got a good imagination, so when I see a picture of somebody doing that, I can almost literally feel the space beneath them. It doesn't
take much.

I had a copy of a magazine that reviewed the movie. It was in the bathroom, and I kept accidentally seeing that picture. One night it
was really, really hard to get back to sleep because that image and sensation stuck in my head.

But I like good movies, and all I'm hearing about this one are raves....

[ms.peachy]

We watched The Counterfeiters (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0813547/) last night. Not exactly the feel-good hit of the season, but well worth its Oscar. Very intense.

[na§tee]

hrmm.. i think you may be a little spooked, a-z. they certainly don't shy away from the fact that he is very, very high up and um.. mms away from certain death.

the thing is though - you know he is going to be okay, you know he's alive now and was successful, so maybe that will help?

it's a darling film. i'd give it a go and practice your deep breathing :)

I read about this guy yesterday-the first i'd heard of the film too. Really hope to get to see it-he sounds like an amazing freaky genius loon-kind of like the peeps who climb overhangs freestyle.

watched Bank Job last night-wasn't bothered about watching it but really liked it. liked David Suchet as nasty-ass porn baron! Jason Statham starred as himself as usual but was ok.

The image of him kneeling and laying down on the damned thing kept me awake about an extra hour last night. I finally went out and
listened to some of the Mad Men commentary to get it out of my head.

I'm still considering it, though. I'll just grab some Dramamine and a Hefty bag at the candy counter.

I thought it was all right.



Me: The Ox-Bow Incident. First time I've ever seen Henry Fonda be not-so-great. Harry Morgan (Potter in M*A*S*H) played his pal,
and he was really good. It's always weird to see an actor you've gotten used to as an old man now, suddenly about 30 years younger.

Fine movie. Some really nice photography.

8/10.

Grosse Pointe Blank

I meant to see it back when I lived outside of Detroit because everyone had such a boner for the fact it was set in michigan. somehow I never made it.

it was pretty good. it kind of made me uneasy that the characters in the movie were supposed to be a year younger than me and they seemed so adult. other than that I found it charming and interesting.

Casino Royale

I really liked it. I was expecting something much different, i thought they had MTV-ised Bond, but they didn't, they remade him but kept him the same also. And the chicks were hot.

Looking forward to the new one

Although, I am sick to my back teeth of double-crossing. Its the laziest plot device. Now when I watch a film I just sit there trying to work out which one of the main character's mates are gonna cheat him. In Indiana Jones I think Ray Winstones character flip-flopped 4 times.

[Junker]

Yeah man, Casino Royale is very well made and Daniel Craig is way better doing Bond than Pierce Brosnan.

[camo]

Yeah the new bond is my favorite one. I loved the gadgets and shit when I was a kid but it was nice to see something that was more true to life.

The Roger Moore bonds make me cringe nowadays :D
