I just saw 27 Dresses and liked it more than I thought I would. I know it's a chick flick but it wasn't bad.... I'm not saying I would see it alone....

After the sunset: Ethan Hawke
A movie with great conversations.

27 Dresses.I love chick flicks,so I enjoyed this one.Not great,but still enjoyable.

There Will Be Blood.Great performance by Daniel Day Lewis.The film was very involving for the first 3/4ths ,but the wheels kind of fell off during the last 1/4.Still,very well worth seeing,and wonderfull soundtrack from Jonny Greenwood(Radiohead).
Jimmy

Wene to Rambo last night. Much better than expected.

with 'no country for old men' and 'there will be blood' both taken in within the last few weeks (the last seen just last night), i feel that i have seen two of the finest american films made in the last several years. both original, totally american to the very core, written and filmed by the best american directors currently working.

no country...was screenplayed by my favorite author, the brilliant, beyond brilliant cormac mccarthy, and 'blood' from source material by upton sinclair. daniel day lewis leaps off the screen and terrifies; javier bardem is sheer horror. and both completely, believably human.

Went and saw Cloverfield last night. It's a love story and a very intense one at that. Excellent story telling.

I had always found this movie entertaining and when I found it for $5 @ Walmart yesterday I just had to get it. It had been quite a few years since last I saw it. Kind of campy, has some good martial arts action and is pretty funny, but only to the right people...it's not a movie women tend to like. You gotta love the character of Jack Burton(Kurt Russell) rollin' in the "Pork Chop Express"! I'm talking about John Carpenter's "Big Trouble in Little China". If you haven't seen it, I'd recommend it for some decent entertainment. laugh. :thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp:

I love Kurt Russell in that movie Godzilla. Just watched Grindhouse this weekend. Kurt is a bad guy this time. Death Proof is a 7 but Planet Terror is a solid 9. Robert Rodriguez makes a highly entertaining movie. Not for those with a weak stomach or not into gore. I remember going to movies like this when I was young. Last House on the Left and Blood Freak are double that come mind from the early 70's.

Watched "Cold Comfort Farm" last weekend for the first time in ten years. Loved it again.

"While the world will burn, we will quiver."

Watched this one the other day. One of the crappiest movies I've seen in a long time. :thumbsdn::thumbsdn::thumbsdn: :smoke:

Went to "There Will Be Blood" last weekend. Excellent movie, but the last scene is awful. Almost ruined the movie.

"Into The Wild". I know this was released several months ago, and I saw it last week in a tiny little theater in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

Excellent move, pretty slow at the beginning. The opposite of an "action flick". Has a definite documentary feel, which is appropriate. Worth seeing.

El Cid.

Nice to finally see it available on DVD but I wasn't hugely impressed by the restoration.

I saw Dreamgirls tonight - WOW - I can see why it won Oscars. It was totally awesome!

Watched 3:10 to Yuma the other night. Great flick.

Started watching a lame one with the wife....Bailed in less then 10 min.

I concur.

A buddy of mine loans me DVD's every once in a while...stuff he says "You REALLY gotta see this!".

Last night was "American Psycho" with Christian Bale... I'm STILL shocked and confused!!

Lord of War w/ Nicholas Cage. :thmbsp::thmbsp:

Violent but interesting. Deals with world arms dealers and the rise of an immigrant from Russia who gets heavily involved. Based on a somewhat real life individual although it is still a Hollywood flick.

Barry

Deathproof!!!! Holy cow was this fun! If you like dark humor, great car chases, and comically over-the-top gore and violence it delivers.

War with Jet Li and Jason Statham. Thought it was a really good movie and Jason Statham is probably one of my favorite actors. He definately should have been Bond instead of Craig.

Good Luck Chuck.

I had some guy friends over after climbing. After dinner we went and got this movie. I said we would have to get something light hearted so my teenage daughter could watch with interest.

I've seen the previews and it looked like one of those harmless chick flicks. We started the movie and it had to much cursing, way to many nude sex scences. Before all that I had to aplogize to my daughter and had to ask her to leave.

Me and my buddies were like WTF? Then I noticed stamped on the DVD box "Un-rated Version." WTF?! It was dumb and silly but kinda funny.

I just watched Across The Universe this morning. I'm not a big fan of musicals but I thought it was a pretty good movie. It definitely made me want to go listen to some Beatles. I thought it was cool that all of the character names were names from Beatles songs also.

Watched 2 last night. Tombstone, an alltime favorite and Slingblade.:thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp:

Don

"No country for old men". A movie with dry deadly dialogue.

"The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle." Decent, but you can't take a half-hour (successful) TV cartoon and turn it into an hour and a half movie, usually doesn't work.

Actually in the show, the R & B portion was only about 10-15 minutes.

Outstanding film! :thmbsp::thmbsp:

Hard to believe this Oscar caliber film only grossed $4 million?!? :wtf:
Guess it needed some car crashes or explosions...:sigh:

Grumpier Old Men followed up by Frequency :thmbsp:

Scott

I would agree. This was a great flick, and I never really felt like I was watching a musical. The use of beatles songs were perfect. Being a resident of VT for some time, it was nice to see Bread and Puppet get a little plug as well.

Affliction. Very powerful film.

This awesome lesbian flick with Emily Blunt set in England. Terrible ending tho.

Across the Universe

Movie that has a bunch of Beatle songs as part of the movie, kinda like a musical. Interesting. I particularly like Joe Cocker singing Come Together.

Dog Day Afternoon, last night TCM

Dune. Director's Cut. I love it.

3:10 to Yuma, excellent western !:yes:

Outstanding film! :thmbsp::thmbsp:

I will give it a look.

Little Big Man

Steel Magnolia. yup, it has been a tough weekend.

Hairspray-I really enjoyed it but I also liked That Thing You Do!

After that, I was fortunate enough to catch the Blues Brothers on HBO in order to get my manhood back:D

Next up is Across the Universe.

"Michael Clayton".

A very good and subtly, but powerfully, intense movie.

I've never been happier to see the final scene of a movie go to black.

Europa. Great story about a jewish boy survival tactics under Soviet and German occupation.

Beowulf.Great update on an old story.

The Proposition, Australian western from 2005, a FINE film. It stars Ed Exley, I mean Guy Pearce, who has starred in 3 very good films with this and Memento and LA Confidential. He knows how to pick them, or just gets lucky.

Great 80's cheesy road race/revenge movie with Charlie Sheen and Clint Howard.

The last movie i watched is "I am legend "It is a very good movie.:banana:

Capote-good movie but annoying at times. I've had my fill of the whole mess after reading the book and seeing the original sixties movie with Robert Blake.

House of Sand and Fog--Some good performances, Ben Kingsley was great at times, I just wasn't impressed with the script/direction

Good Night & Good Luck--About Edward R Murrow taking on Joe McCarthy in the 50s, very good, a fast 93 minute film

Watched Open Water 2: Adrift. I think that's the name. I had never heard of it, and there wasn't else on at 2am that interested me.

I found it strangely dark and ironic, while also being incredulous and silly at times. But I liked it, and will try and watch the first one.

Said "Based on true events"

Anyone see this or the first one?

10,000 B.C.

Typical special effects, palatable story line. Overall ok.

3:10 to yuma :thmbsp:

Beowolf , eh its ok~

Wonderland :thmbsp:

what else, hmmmmmmmmmm ill check back when i remember..

copying beethoven.
wish it had more music.

I saw the first one a few years back . It's a good little movie made on a shoestring budget. Think sympathy for unsympathetic characters. It's based on something that really happened I guess.

It Happened One Night, the old 1934 Clark Gable Claudette Colbert comedy. Very funny.

I suppose unsympathetic is definitely one way to put it, given the characters situation (which I won't divulge and spoil it for anyone who may watch it) but, serious consequences can occur in the blink of an eye to anyone.

That's why I always double check... :smoke:

Old Hitchcock.

Sabotage
Secret Agent.
The 39 Steps.

39 Steps is the basis for every other blockbuster movie of the last 20 years.

It Happened One Night, the old 1934 Clark Gable Claudette Colbert comedy. Very funny.

cubdog

Outstanding movie! I think it was the last film to win the big 3 Oscars until Cuckoo's Nest came around. The hitchhiking scene is a classic.

Picked up "Victor/Victoria" from the library the other night. Good film, bu hard to believe it's 20+ years old. Robert Preston is sensational.

3:10 to yuma, good flick

Shoot em up - lacking on the plot but lots of shooting for sure. Chock full of cheese ball lines and mediocre acting. Just a great mindless shoot em up

Gone Baby Gone. Pretty convoluted plot and a questionable ending but all those South Boston characters were huge fun. And the actress that was nominated for this deserved it, IMO, over Tilda Swinton. So you know, I'm a big Tilda Swinton fan. Her next flick is again with Clooney and directed by Coen's. I've seen most of her work, I think. She big time now!

no country for old men.

drugs, guns, and money. tommy lee jones is getting up there, and it dragged on a bit.

girlfriend hated it.

A couple of mostly unappreciated favorites . . Montana with Kyra Sedgewick and a bunch of choice actors. Black comedy with plot twists and double crosses galore. Thick As Thieves with Alec Baldwin and a bunch of choice actors. A movie that keeps on giving! Character rich with funny, funny good lines. The director gives it a unique motion. Original, and totally under appreciated.

Holy shit! I didn't mean to hit the post button twice! Must be that second glass.

"Miss Pettigrew Lives A Day"-Frances McDormand,Amy Adams,and a wonderful supporting cast in a light comedy/drama set in London right before the start of WWII.Skilled,fairly witty,and hits you a little harder than youd expect.A lot of fun.

"The Bank Job"-Jason Statham actually acts a little in this one.Ive always liked him as an action hero,but I enjoyed him just as much in this caper film based on the true story of the Loyds of London robbery in 1970.Not great,but involving and fun.

"Vantage Point"-Much better than the critics led me to believe.A tragic event is retold from several different perspectives,each segment adding a new piece of information.I found it very enthralling,with a great car chase near the end.

Jimmy

Watched 2 yesterday.

1. Gone Baby Gone - I thought it was great - makes you really think - what would you do?

2. 30 Days of Night - Great Vampire flick! Gotta watch it at night, big screen, lights out!:thmbsp:

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. Gut-busting funny.
Tom

"No Reservations"

Chick-flic, big time. But well done.

"The good Shepherd". Do not get mix up with the CIA.

I am Legend... Keeps ya on the end of your seat, i figured it was gonna be like irobot, but clearly diff. Great movie!

Prompted by Arthur C. Clarke's passing, I broke the shrink-wrap on my as-yet-unwatched copy of "2001" on LaserDisc, and watched it with my pooches lazing on the couch. Delilah was unimpressed and slept through most, Olivine really seems to like Strauss and dislike computer malfunction 'beeps'. Maybe it's because my wife's a science teacher, so we watch a lot of 'space' documentaries.

je

I am Legend... Keeps ya on the end of your seat, i figured it was gonna be like irobot, but clearly diff. Great movie!

Me too, last night.

A modernized Last Man on Earth or Omega Man.

Planned on No Country for Old Men tonight but never got around to it.

Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. Gut-busting funny.
Tom

Saw it in the theatre, my kid and I are long time Wallace and Gromit fans. I nearly wet myself laughting when Wallace turned into the were-rabbit.

The box set's of shorts are also too damn funny.


Watched Wolfen Saturday.
X-files typle flick I hadn't seen in 20 plus years. Albert Finney as a cop who figures out that New York has a Were-wolf like subculture. It's a little choppy plot wise, stunning cinematography.

Tonight I watched Turner's tv replay of King Solomon's Mines with Stewart Granger, Deborah Kerr and Richard Carlson. Great adventure flic, the second movie to be made by MGM on location in Aftrica. First rate adventure. Can you believe I first saw it in the theater in 1950?

This is the first time I've watched it, it's amazing!
Both the boot camp and the war segments are riveting. :thmbsp::thmbsp:

I am Legend... Keeps ya on the end of your seat, i figured it was gonna be like irobot, but clearly diff. Great movie!


I liked the first half but when it became more Zombie film than Sci Fi it turned me off a little, still it was enjoyable.

La Misma Luna (Under the Same Moon)

I usually have to be dragged to these types of movies. My daughter insisted on going for extra credit in her AP History class.

Made me cry. A poignant and very well crafted tale of a mother and son's story of being an illegal alien and trying to reunite across the border.

"Beowulf". It was OK, but the animation takes some getting used to.
Like watching a PS3 or something
Also watched "Enchanted" with the kids which was OK too, Pretty formulaic, but hey,it's a Disney fairy tale spin-off.....

The Beguiled.

:yes:

OP-- What 'type' of movie was it?

I loved this one, DD Lewis earned his Oscar here. :thmbsp::thmbsp:

OP-- What 'type' of movie was it?

Was that me? I can never tell.

Under the Same Moon, I had to look up the genre, it's Art/Foreign, Drama and Politics/Religion.

It's hard to describe. It's more than about illegal immigration, desperation and struggling to survive, it's about love, life, death and triumph of the human spirit. It filled with adventure and some funny scenes too.

If there is a little softy in you... you will love it.

I enjoyed it a lot,too.Its really just a wish fullfillment fantasy for the immigrant audience,which is ok by me.I love romantic comedies,and thats all they really are,too,when you think about it.

A send up of many different music biopics.
There's a bit with "The Beatles" (Jack Black as Paul) that's funny as hell. :thmbsp:

"American Gangster" and I liked it! A lot.............R1:music::yes:

Last weekend I saw "into the wild".

perfect casting, however i thought the movie sucked from a visual standpoint. also the chronology was all over the place. I'm not sure if this was how the book was written, but i found it very unnecessary and hard to follow. i think the film would have been much stronger had it been directed by someone like Ang Lee. just my .02

I just watched the movie "21"...

one word, kinda: YAAAAAAAWWWWWwwWN!!!!!!!!!

Volver- Think Penelope Cruz is just a pretty face? She turns in a world class performance here as a working class, turning 40, mother of a teenage daughter. Very resourceful, lots of fortitude, and repressed feelings. Everything about her character to include what she is thinking at any given moment can be see on her face. Excellent movie if you can forgive no special effects or super heros. And it's in Spanish but worth the hassel.

I Am Legend.
One question, though. I thought it was said that canines are immune to the virus, but, Will Smiths character is attacked by zombie dogs. Have I missed something here?

Typical overlooked plothole in a sloppily-written movie...

Anyway, last film I watched was REEFER MADNESS on TCM Underground. Funny stuff. The only time I get "reefer madness" is when I can't find any.

Last week, "No Country for Old Men".
This week, "What Dreams may Come" w/Robin Williams and "Glengarry Glen Ross" which always blows me away.

Watched Eragon yesterday.Even my wife liked it.If you like sci-fi or dragon movies you will love it.The scenery is spectacular.Wish I had seen at on the big screen.

Under the Same Moon. My wife and I both enjoyed it. Recommended.

I saw Redbelt today.Smart,plot driven Mixed Martial Arts movie written and directed by David Mamet.Much better than I expected.
Jimmy

Juno.

Good stuff.

Golden Compass

I think it is a good movie, but I know some people don't care for fantasy.

Golden Compass - decent
Deaden - sucks
Charlie Wilson's War - kinda cool
Speed Racer (animated)- for children but easy to watch
Iron Man (animated)- as SR

I Am Legend.
One question, though. I thought it was said that canines are immune to the virus, but, Will Smiths character is attacked by zombie dogs. Have I missed something here?

Watched this one tonight...pretty good, a huge improvement over Omega Man which was basically the same movie that came out in the 70s and starred Charlton Heston.

As I recall, it was said in the movie that canines are only immune to the airborne form of the virus.

Not sure what you didn't like visually, but overall it was for people that read the book. To anyone else, it's just a sad downer. The book is fascinating because it's documentary style (of a true story). It makes you really wonder what makes the guy tick. The movie does not.

Sweeney Todd.
Possibly the best thing Depp has done.:thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp:

I've finally gotten my hands on the last season of The Sopranos. Don't tell me how it ends, okay? I wanna find out for myself! :lmao:

Thanks for clarifying. I would have picked that up, except I only watched it once, so little things slip by. Gonna watch it again tonight. :yes:

You can tell me if I remembered correctly...I'm not particularly perceptive and tend to nod off sometimes if the movie is dragging, but this one held my attention. I've always liked sci-fi and it was fun to compare this one to the 70's version. I thought the scenes of deserted NYC were pretty cool, as was the portrayal of the mutated humans- basically humans with rabies...

Untraceable

Starring Diane Lane, about an FBI agent that investigates internet crime.

Pretty entertaining. That's what I want from my movie rentals. Entertainment.

After a hard week, the wife and I like to order a pizza and sit down in the 70salesguy Colossal Manor Home Theatre and "be entertained".

Of course, I send the butler up to the local Bi-Lo grocery store to get a movie from the DVD Xpress machine for .99! :D

Tobor= Robot spelled backwards.

Sci-Fi kids film from the 50's, lots of fun. :thmbsp::thmbsp:

The Golden Compass
Wasn't bad if you like fantasy.
I could see why they were making such a big fuss about.
At first i didn't really understand.
To me I look at it as a good old fantasy movie.
Kinda like Star dust or Eragon.

Ma and Pa Kettle at Waikiki.
Remember them?

Untraceable, great thriller,.

Rambo the new one and it was not very good
I liked the first ones but this was just boring I was not invested in the character at all,it was gory as all get out though

I caught the last half hour of "The Third Man" ( from the big wheel and the "cuckoo clock" speech) this morning on TCM.

Wow!! I gotta see the whole thing. Breathtaking cinematography and film noir, plus Orson Welles fleeing through the sewers of Vienna; can't beat that with a stick.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

+1 a great movie and Joseph Cotten did a great job as well.

I just finished watching "An Ideal Husband", originally an Oscar Wilde play.

Excellent movie, looks great restored and in wide screen.

There needs to be a Blu Ray release of this, it was already on HD.

Hot Fuzz. Yes, really.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Fuzz

The Other Boleyn Girl on Friday night. Pretty good if you like history, stars Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johanssen. I thought it was done well.

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?

This came on tv and we watched it - again. This is such a hysterical movie. The Coen Brothers write some great one liners in this one. Plus, you can't beat the Soggy Bottom Boys, live and in concert:sing:!

:thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp:

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Gohan

ditto here. not bad, definitely not the best. too @#$% much overuse of CGI and greenscreening led to a few rather artificial looking scenes. sound was pretty good; they actually laid off of the excessive THUMP and BUMP with this movie. gotta give lucas respect for that:thmbsp: in sum, they don't make movies like they used to, and i needed a good Anime afterwards...

Flawless. This is a better than average bank heist thriller. Recommended.

Flawless. This is a better than average bank heist thriller. Recommended.

I watched Flawless last weekend and agree it was pretty good.

The opening conversation in the restaurant caused me to believe that the conclusion would be different (not to ruin it for anyone).

I enjoyed seeing Demi Moore dressed and coiffed in 60's style.

I find that I enjoy Michael Caine much more now that he is an older gentleman.

I watched Quigley down under this weekend via DVR. I enjoyed it as well! :thmbsp:

I saw "The Bucket List" this weekend. I really enjoyed it. Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman had very good chemistry. I'd like to see them in another film together.

:no::no::sigh::sigh:

The Happening, Movie Theatre


What a piece of garbage, no real twist like you expect with Shamilon, and just when the action started, the movie ended.

Top that off, the premise of the movie made me want to vomit due to gross inaccuracies, and blatent stupidity. I'm a Biologist, so I was screaming BS the entire time.

It sure wasent no Sixth Sence.

The Waterboy with Adam Sandler

Beverly Hills Cop.
Another 48 Hours
Watching Beverly Hills Cop II now


If ya can't tell, i am watching a lot of Eddie Murphy....

3:10 to Yuma
This is a good western. The main characters were well developed and many of the classic western elements/devices were used in the film, but the dialog and interactions between the characters were up to date and believable.

Gotta say, though, No Country for Old Men is better!

We Were Soldiers

I watch this everynow and then as a reality check. I have also read the book and the movie is fully endorsed by Colonel Moore.

"yellowbeard" with cheech and chong and most of the monty python cast. just bought it on dvd. silly, but hilarious!

We Were Soldiers

I thought that this was one of the better (more accurate) war movies that I have ever watched...

National Treasure 2

Even less probable and more far-fetched than the first one. That's Hollywood for you.

National Treasure 2

I watched it too. It was fun and I like the historical references, but the whole idea of Cibola being where it was really was pretty wacky. Well maybe not any wackier than the first one.

Also watched """The Golden Compass" which was entertaining, but obviously the start of a series, and "The Kite Runner", which was pretty good, although I found the protagonist hard to sympathize towards.

I watched it too. It was fun and I like the historical references, but the whole idea of Cibola being where it was really was pretty wacky. Well maybe not any wackier than the first one.

I watched it solely for fun, but I did enjoy the historical references. It's fun when you know the reference before they explain it!

I really thought that the "Hall of Records" at Mt. Rushmore would have figured into the story.

3:10 could have been a very good western, but the absurdity of the last reel was more parody than homage, IMHO. Thirty folks lying dead in the street, bullets flying, and people are going on about their business like nothing's happening? Oh, and you don't fall down among cattle moving out of a pen and get up. You become one with the earth. And one-legged men don't leap from roof-tops to roof-tops.

The story was good, the characters were pretty well drawn, Bale and Crowe did a good job, but the ending was shot full of holes (pun intended). The 1957 original with Glenn Ford and Van Heflin was much better.

The wife's out of town, caring for our new grandbaby, and I got to check out some movies that were not suitable for her viewing.

So I FINALLY watched "There Will Be Blood" this week (based upon Upton Sinclair's "Oil"). Excellent, excellent movie. Felt like a Kubrick film. Soundtrack especially deserves attention (original music by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood and some Arvo Pärt). A+

I'm the last man to see "300", I guess. It was what it was, a graphic novel on the big screen. B-

"3:10 to Yuma" noted above. C.

"I'm Not There". Not much cohesion, and the style isn't a good excuse. But it's worth seeing just for Cate Blanchett's portrayal of mid/late sixties Dylan. That segment redeemed the rest of the film. C-/A-.

I recently watched a Japanese "Shock" Feature: The Machine Girl.
Downloaded it from bitcomet.
The blood and guts are so graphic it's comical.
Definite cult hit.

Shattered starring Pierce Brosnan. Not to be confused with the 1989 "Shattered", starring Tom berringer.


A really interesting movie.

Our kids rented a couple of movies last weekend and my wife and I watched them before they had to be returned:

BEOWOLF: 3 stars out of 5. Pretty darn good, all things considered.

THE ILLUSIONIST: One of the best films I've watched in a very long time. Kind of a "chick-flick", but not totally. Edward Norton STOLE this movie, but the rest of the cast did a damn fine job. Great cinematography. Great score. Incredible directing. Incredible story. Altogether enjoyable. We liked it so much we watched it twice the same day (not back-to-back, but still..) 5 stars out of 5.

Just watched Derailed with Clive Owen and Jennifer Aniston. Nice surprise, better than I thought it would be.

The bucket list. Was a little better then I figured.

Saw "The Happening" a couple of weeks ago---it was just OK.

Watched the first disc of "The War" by Ken Burns. I always enjoy his work and this one is starting out well.

Watched Layer Cake with Daniel Craig. Pretty good.

Mongol

A fine arts US release (6/2008) by Russian diretor Sergei Bodrov. The story of Genghis Khan. More story than blood than one might expect. If you like the movie 300 you like this one. It has all the heart without the comic book flair.

http://movies.nytimes.com/2008/06/06/movies/06mong.html

http://www.mongolmovie.com/

Free screening of "Hancock". C to B-.

Felt like it was an origin story. I wish it had more of the origin story. Had a lot of parts I wish they expanded on. It would go from funny to serious almost to quickly for me.

Just watched The Bucket List last night. Pretty good flick

Bryan

Charlie Wilson's War

Better than I thought it would be. I had seen a story a few months ago about the real Charlie Wilson.

As an added treat, Amy Adams was in it as well as Charlie Wilson's Administrative Assistant. I just really enjoy watching Amy Adams. I first saw her in Junebug.

If you haven't seen Junebug, it's worth viewing, IMHO.

12 Angry Men - Incredible

12 Angry Men - Incredible

Totally agree. Excellent film.

Yesterday at walmart, I grabbed a triple-set of Anthony Hopkins movies boxed in one (Silence Of The Lambs, Bounty and Desperate Hours).
My wife and I watched DH last night. Micky Rourke chewed the scenery and poor Anthony did what he could with a stilted and rather stupid script. (Actually, the script wasn't too bad; it was Michael Cimino's hamhanded and rather self conscious and unsubtle directing that pretty much ruined it). Wasn't the worst thing I've seen, but it sure wasn't the best either. I've not seen the original Bogey/Marsh version but now that I've seen this one, I'd like to.

THE ILLUSIONIST: One of the best films I've watched in a very long time. Kind of a "chick-flick", but not totally. Edward Norton STOLE this movie, but the rest of the cast did a damn fine job. Great cinematography. Great score. Incredible directing. Incredible story. Altogether enjoyable. We liked it so much we watched it twice the same day (not back-to-back, but still..) 5 stars out of 5.

I liked it too.

Check out "The Prestige"; it's a hate story compared to "the Illusionist" being a love story, but also an excellent film.

Do it!!! :thmbsp:

Lying around being jet-lagged all day yesterday, I was looking around on the teevee for just about anything to focus on, and came across some early- 80's "film" called The Outsiders. With Patrick Swayze and several teen "actors" who may or may not be stars these days (I really don't keep up with movies at all).

Teenage hoodlums do wrong, do right, smoke a lot of cigarettes, rumble, and not much else. This was as large a pile of steaming crap as I have sat through in a long, long time. Not an actor worthy of the title in the whole cast. And when the credits rolled (FINALLY), Francis Ford Coppola's name was associated with it- I was aghast. Bet that's one he'd love to have back.

I've actually wanted to see that one. It's based on some "classic" teen novel and you're right; there's a ton of future "names" in it. Didja catch Tom Waits??

IMDB link (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086066/)

I have a pretty cool memory attached to The Outsiders.Several months before its release,I was at a Budfest at the Rose Bowl,and Stevie Wonder was the last artist to perform.He tells us he just wrote a new song for The Outsiders called Stay Gold.He played it,which was a very pretty song,and asked our opinions.He got tremendous cheers,of course.

Didja catch Tom Waits??

Didn't see Waits. He must have done a quick walk-through while I was puking in the toilet. Has Swayze ever made a movie that didn't really suck?

The only one I can think of is Donnie Darko,and he played a child pornographer in that one.

It was a follow-up to Coppola's "Rumblefish" (another S.E. Hinton novel based in Tulsa). Rumblefish was MUCH better (good soundtrack, too).

That's the one. I knew it was one of those.

BTW, another ton of stars in that one too, including Waits again

Let's not forget that she's HOT!!!!!!!!!

"Wall-E" with my little sister...I actually liked it, and I'm usually not one to get sucked up in that cutsie pixar crap.

Before that was "Once Upon a in the West" which is one of my favorites as well where my user name/avatar come from (if you didnt know ;))

Great movie! I must admit, I've always had a thing for Claudia Cardinale after seeing her in this movie.

I saw Wall-E also and enjoyed it...more slap in your face about pollution and stuff...I saw Get Smart the other day and it was OK..my wife laughed more than I did/

It rained here yesterday. A lot. When it rains even a little bit, we lose our satellite signal. Also, when we get heavy lightning storms, we totally disconnect and unplug our computers from the wall. Out of boredom, I grabbed a VHS at random on which I had taped (but never watched) several films from TCM. Soooo, yesterday, we spent the afternoon watching Stanley Kubrick's 1962 version of LOLITA. I'm a James Mason fan anyway, so the film already had a certain appeal to me. Interesting and a little depressing but as usual for a Kubrick film, extremely well-made. We liked it.
After that was the 3rd viewing for my wife and the 9000th viewing for me (OK, I'm exaggerating) of EASY RIDER.

Wanted

Fun, unpredictable and entertaining.

And WAAY better than I was expecting.

Wall*E - in the theatre - Cute and trite. Entertaining, but when you leave the theatre the plot is all but instantly forgetable.

Get Smart - in the theatre - MUCH better then it had any right to be. If you loved the old series, there are plenty of fun in-jokes. If you really loath "I Love Lucy" type humor, there wasn't any.

Has Swayze ever made a movie that didn't really suck?

How about:

"Red Dawn" and "Dirty Dancing"?

I saw Wall-E last night. Visually stunning. Not quite enough comedy for me... Had a pretty serious tone I thought especially for kids..

Go see it on a DLP theater.

"the secret of NIMH" (1982) breathtaking, in every aspect. Don Bluth and his studio KNEW THEIR CRAFT.

Great movie, for sure. What is your take on:

Watership Down
The Hobbit

Thx

If you're a James Mason fan, have you had the oportunity to see Murder By Decree where he plays the role of Dr. Watson to Christopher Plummer's Sherlock Holmes. He does a very good job as Watson. Dark movie.

After that was the 3rd viewing for my wife and the 9000th viewing for me (OK, I'm exaggerating) of EASY RIDER.

That would be about right, in my opinion. :D

I remember well taking my girlfriend to the movie theatre to see "Easy Rider".

It made quite an impression on me and certainly was part of the influence that resulted in my purchase of a new FXE-1200 in 1977!

Great movie, for sure. What is your take on:

Watership Down
The Hobbit

Thx

only one there i'm remotely fimiliar with is "The Hobbit" superb production values there as well...

Saw the latest Indiana Jones Crystal Skull Thing last night. It was entertaining, which is what I expected. I saw the first one, didn't like Temple of Doom at all, didn't see the one with 'Dad' Connery, so I'm no 'Indy', but it was enjoyable enough.

Great movie! I must admit, I've always had a thing for Claudia Cardinale after seeing her in this movie.

:yes: :yes: :yes:

Great movie! I must admit, I've always had a thing for Claudia Cardinale after seeing her in this movie.

I just saw her in The Professionals. Pretty good considering Burt Hamcaster co-starred.

Finally sat down and watched the 1968 Steve McQueen movie - The Thomas Crowne Affair, after capturing it on the Tivo.

What a cool movie, really enjoyed the first hour with the hip daring millionaire pulling off the caper and cooly matching wits with Faye Dunaway. Cool split screen action too. Then the plot degenerates into a hokey Baretta-style cop drama. But worth a watch. Great soundtrack too with Michel Legrande's Windmills Of Your Mind :thmbsp: :lurk:

Hoosiers

One of the best sports movie ever!

Get Smart-Gentle comedy and fun action.Much better than I expected.
Wall-E-Like Rattatouie,incredibly well made,well written,and not very engaging,IMHO.
Wanted-Imaginative action flick.Over the top doesnt even begin to cover the action.And the plot!"The towel made me do it!"
Jimmy

I watched about 10 minutes of "The Happening"......One of the worst movies I've ever watched (for ten minutes). M Night Shamalamabananahandshan, please stop making films!!!!!!!!

Stomached about 6 minutes of "The Love Guru"......Another horrible, horrible movie. I am now officially ashamed that Mike Myers is Canadian.

Watched that Zohan film......Pretty crap too, but a few funny parts I suppose.

Thank goodness for torrents, because these are seriously not worth a cent of anyone's hard earned pay.

PS Whatever you do, never, ever, ever, for the love of all that is holy.....Never watch "Be Kind Rewind". That is seriously the lamest movie probably ever made. Man o man.

An old fave - John Borman's Hope and Glory.

10,000 BC . Not a bad movie with great special effect. I don't know how historically accurate it was though.

Wall*E

Wow 2001/2010 for kids in some ways. To me it was a bunch of things that made this movie really good. The dancing scene to me was beautiful. Eve had a bit of a temper, which was funny to watch. Wall*e a simple hero, if we could all be that kind.

"In Brujes"

just out on DVD, funniest dark comedy since "Snatch"

highly recommended.

The Beautiful Country, saga about a young Vietnamese man trying to get to America to find his American father in 1990, highly recommended

Thin Blue Line, 1988 documentary by Errol "Fog of War" Morris, really good

"In Brujes"

just out on DVD, funniest dark comedy since "Snatch"

+1.

I watched The Greatest Game Ever Played last night. Thought at first it was a formula underdog story. Watched the extra content and was pleased it was based on historical fact. Pretty good show.

I watched Ronin again a few days ago and forgot to post. One of my favorite Deniro films. Really good movie, except for the music. :thumbsdn:

Me too. One of the best DVDs I have.

Just watched "The Thin Red Line"
IMO, one of the best war movies ever, especially the last hour.

I nearly bid on an Audi A6 twin turbo this spring at an auction because of that movie! I loved that car. The one I was looking at was high mileage, great shape, just didn't know the history.

donoghue--The Beautiful Country, saga about a young Vietnamese man trying to get to America to find his American father in 1990, highly recommended

shot here in dallas in 2002-- i had a 'featured extra' part in this film (featured extra is where you are in the foreground, integral to the shot, actually have a character name, but no lines, they almost gave me lines though, oh, god i was THAT CLOSE, man, but, at the last minute, no lines) i played the nick nolte character's american ex-wife's new husband (my character name: The New Husband), i had a good number of scenes, but....they all got cut. that's show bidness and the life of the day player. director Hans Pieter Moland and crew were SO nice....he introduced himself to me like i was an old friend, asked me about myself, explained each scene ahead of time...wow what an experience. all euro crew, all decent likeable people. it was a couple great days....

That's incredible Shrink. AK people get around. I was very impressed with the tone of the film and the performance by the lead Damien Nguyen.

WALL*E

Man. . . Pixar just keeps hitting them outta the park, year after year.

A very well-envisioned glimpse of one possible future for mankind, with a very honest, direct, and sometimes humorous approach to one of man's 'what if' scenarios.

It had many 'wake up and smell the coffee' overtones in it, and showed that human's are the only ones that can alter the destiny of our future.

10,000 BC . Not a bad movie with great special effect. I don't know how historically accurate it was though.

LOL....Sandy grew up with primordial matter...:D

Vantage Point.

Dennis Quaid is in this one as well as Matthew Fox. It's told in an interesting manner, that is from several different "vantage points".

I enjoyed it, but I remind everyone that I watch movies for entertainment. :)

It's a cross between Fast and Furious,The Marathon Man and The Fight Club,a non stop adrenilne rush. It was ok.:smoke:

The first hour is funny,action filled,and slowly becomes involving.And then...it jumps the shark like no movie Ive seen in a long,long time.I think about half the audience bought into it,and the other half were like me-frustrated and disapointed.
Jimmy

I do not know how the other night I watched a disturbing movie "In Open Water" maybe because I like sailing and boating but OMG they must be joking. Filmed on a low buget and camera but made some money on it although it devastated the diving industry for a while to say the least!!!!

Surround sound sharks...:no:

Mike

The Apartment: very entertaing.

Hancock

The first half was great. I never laughed so hard or so long at one scene. The second half, the mood of the movie changed and it sputtered a bit. But overall entertaining.

"5 People You Meet in Heaven". It was a good film, but didn't quite live up to my expectations give the glowing reviews at IMDB

Step into Liquid, 2003

http://www.stepintoliquid.com/

I watched this DVD again last night, one of the few I own. A modern surf classic rivaling and surpassing the culture defining The Endless Summer (1966). Directed by Dana Brown, the son of Bruce Brown the director of the original The Endless Summer.

Waves from ankle biters to open ocean 66 foot giants. Surfing in North Shore Hawaii, Vietnam, Texas, Wisconsin, Easter Island, Maui, Ireland, Australia, Tahiti, Costa Rica and California.

Surfers, surfer girls, pro surfers, groms (kids), the surfing Rabbi, the war veteran surfer, paraplegic surfer, the surfer who has surfed everyday for 30+ years, a surfer whose been surfing since 1925 and is still going strong. Once you've been stoked by surfing you're hooked for life.

A great movie to experience.

:)

Charlie Wilson's War

Good performances and some fine dialog by Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts and especially Philip Seymour Hoffman as the frumpy but brilliant CIA guy.

INTO THE WILD - I had read the book, so I wanted to see the movie. Kinda slow at times, but all in all a good character study movie.

The Dark Knight - WOW:rockon:

Heath Ledger gives the best performance of a villain since Anthony Hopkins immortalized Hannibal Lecter. I could be forgetting someone (the guy from No Country for Old Men comes to mind) in all the excitement, but Heath's portrayal of The Joker absolutely stole the show.

I also felt that the writers were very cognizant of the graphic novels and made sure to remain true to the myth - they just enlarged it as only movies can do!

Journey to the Center of the Earth, in 3D

One of my favorite Jules Vern novels. I somewhat remember the original 1959 movie version. I loved those old sci-fis as a kid. The new version seemed like it was geared towards the kids. It had it's moments but overall it was mildly entertaining.

Tell No One (Ne Le Dis A Personne)

Highly recommended.

Synopsis: Pediatrician Dr Alex Beck has been devastated since his childhood sweetheart and wife, Margot, was savagely murdered in the early days of their marriage eight years ago; a serial killer was blamed. But when he receives an anonymous email directing him to a webcam, he sees Margot's face standing in the crowd, being filmed in real time. "An absorbing and intriguing thriller for grownups that surprises at every turn, with a superb cast.--Urban Cinefile Australia. French, with English subtitles

+1 for Heath in "The Dark Knight" :yes:

"wHy sO sErIoUs?"

Arlington Road: Awesome.

The Dark Knight blew my doors off. And it was all the more powerful because you knew that you were looking at Leger's last performance. He was amazing.

Theater - The Dark Knight
Home - Outland

It Happened One Night-1934-with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. not bad.

another wow for Dark Knight. Believe the hype.
as a bonus got to see the trailer for 'Watchmen'. man, does that look good. Loved the GN.

Theater: Dark Knight

Home: Lethal Weapon 4

The last time a saw a movie in a theater was about 54 weeks ago now. It was the Simpsons Movie.

At home....I can't remember, it's been so long. I bet it's been well over a year.

Theater: Dark Knight (yup, loved it)
DVD: The Bank Job rent it! loads of fun!

Starting through a pile of new-to-me laserdiscs, first one spun was Last Man Standing with Bruce Willis. Fun sub-stretching sound (first DTS LD I've ever tried), gnarly Ry Cooder soundtrack with some ominous distorted baritone guitar, but weak script and silly plot.

The third miracle:fascinating look into the Roman Catholic church process in declaring someone a saint.

Knocked Up - piss funny

Presently watching the first season of "Battlestar Galactica" on DVD. Far better than I thought it would be.
Tom

Kung fu Panda
WALL-E

I have kids. :/

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

If like you Indiana Jones, you'll like this one. Non-stop action adventure.

Casablanca for the third time. I don't think I need to rate this one...

This film looks spectacular, Cinemascope, Color and all that but the first 20 minutes play like something Ed Wood penned!
It get's better after that but it's definitely a B picture.

See 4 Astronauts hurl through space in a toy spaceship, see them get caught in a sandstorm in outer space, see the flames in outer space come through the open port hole in the ship, see them crash land on the Polar Ice Cap then hike to Bronson Canyon in Los Angeles in three hours, see the rubber spiders, see the beautiful women in short skirts and high heels who populate the underground city that's decorated in ultra 50's modern.

In short, it a blast to watch. :thmbsp::thmbsp::thmbsp:

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Blood, what blood? .....:sigh:

Peeping Tom

Creepy, unevenly acted, but interesting.

Just saw The Mummy #3...I basically want those 2 hrs of my life back...I wasnt even motivated to eat my popcorn..

Walk Hard - The Dewy Cox Story, me and Mrs Caddis laughed so hard, a little bit of pee come out

The Fallen Idol, 1948, 95 Minutes Black & White, Monaural, 1.33:1 aspect ratio.

"Elegantly balancing suspense and farce, this tale of the fraught relationship between a boy and the beloved butler he suspects of murder is a delightfully macabre thriller of the first order and a visually and verbally dazzling knockout."

I recommend seeing this film.

Watched Ninotchka for the umpteenth time last night. Very nice...

Licence to Wed, with Robin Willaims as a minister "testing" a young couple to be sure they are ready.

one :puke:

The best part of the whole movie is when the groom busts
Williams in the nose. He's lucky that is all he got...

Pass it up. :no:

The Proposition - awesome Australian frontier flick. (9/10)

Cracked the seal on another shrink-wrapped LaserDisc this evening:

Red Rock West- similar to Blood Simple or Fargo, as in a nothing-is-as-it-seems mystery thriller moody movie with seventeen plot twists. Cage, Hopper, Lara Flynn Boyle. Not a bad way to spend an evening, but not as good as either of the other films I referenced.

It wasn't very good, but I'll go see anything with Michelle Yeoh in it. I could at least eat my popcorn.

Casino Royale. As a lifelong Bond fan, I truly enjoyed Daniel Craig's go at the role.

Yeah, Craig's the best Bond in some time. Very good movie. The sequel's out this fall. First Bond sequel... didn't see Casino Royale in the theatre, got it as a gift. I'll probably take this new one in at the theatre.

3:10 to Yuma - I thought it was a terrific film.


I need to see the original, my "older" friends keep telling me about it.

Maid in manhattan, w/j-lo

Quite romantic and entertaining.

"The Usual Suspects" is on AMC right now.
Great film.

Transsiberian

My wife and I saw this in the theater Friday. An engaging thriller that we both enjoyed. Recommended.

Synopsis: When an American couple, Roy and Jessie, decide to take the long way home from a recent sojourn in Peking, they become embroiled in a thrilling chase of deception and murder with a pair of mysterious fellow travelers on the Trans-Siberian train journey from China to Moscow. "A superbly crafted, suspenseful and thoroughly absorbing thriller."--Sundance Film Festival

3:10 to Yuma - I thought it was a terrific film.

I need to see the original, my "older" friends keep telling me about it. We watched the original on cable about a month ago and liked it. Just last week we borrowed the updated version from the library and enjoyed that too. Thank you, San Jose Public Library.

Great movie by Stanley Kubrick but it must have really pushed the boundaries of what you could get away with in 1962, or even today.

"The Car" - 1977 - great little under-appreciated horror opus
