Have to agree on Day the Earth Stood Still. I rented it because we usually watch Cruise movies but
I watched Serenity (2005) which was a sequel to the Fox sci fi series Firefly. It was kind of a fun sci fi romp with space battles and marauding cannibalistic berzerkers. And Summer Glau was in it. I've had a crush on her since seeing her as a Terminator in the Sarah Conner Chronicles (if I were to die by machine, I'd want it to be her). I'd give Serenity a thumbs up if you don't expect high brow cinema.

Recently watched "The Queen" with Helen Mirren who won best actress for it. I thought it was a very good film that helped me put the Princess Diana aftermath in perspective. Of course I am mildly in love with Ms Mirren despite her being twice my age so my opinion is skewed in her favor. |

Just finished watching A Fistful of Dollars, starring the one and only Clint Eastwood. If you think westerns are all old and stodgy, this movie will change your opinion. I thought westerns were bad/tacky before I watched this on the recommendation of my friend, and it was very good. Great plot, and lots of action. Sergei Leone is an excellent director.

MisterFishey, I envy you, because you get to watch Clint's spaghetti westerns for the first time. I recommend The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

Cruise was the one thing I didn't like about WotW. There were many scenes (the burning, runaway train, for example) that were straight from the book. Very impressive.
