Flags of Our Fathers -- couldn't really get into it. I know, hurrah and rah-rah, I'm un-american if I don't love this movie...well, it's hard being honest, but that's what this country is all about to me.

The Departed - never heard the firetruck word used so much, but a heck of a gripping movie.

Oh god, it was called Cecil B. Demented, and it was as stupid a movie as you’re likely to see. SWMBO loved it for its "Campiness" She liked “Kung Fu Hustle” for the same reason. Stupid funny.
OK once, but I wouldn’t care to see em again

I've loved the story ever since I read "Gates of Fire" by Steven Pressfield...who cares if Miller's story is historically accurate or not, it looks like a heck of a movie.

Working on "Matewan" in the bedroom VCR; always fall sleep before it finishes.
Good film about organizing coal miners in W. Va.

On Golden Pond was on TV last night on a movie channel. I'd forgotten how good it was (Seen last when it came out on the big screen) and what a hard body Jane Fonda was in it. (Not that she ws in it much)

Just saw 300 on Saturday. Great movie.
Most don't realize is an adaptaion of a Graphic Novel (ie. comic book) of the same title. That is the reason for the grandiose imagery and characterizations.

"I Think I Love My Wife",written,directed and starring Chris Rock.For a man whos so insightful as a stand up comedian,his films are so stilted,wooden,and one dimensional.The main reason I went to see it was that it was a remake of Rohmer's Chloe In The Afternoon.Yeah,sure it was.Like those Emerson all in one fake retro record player cd combos are remakes of a thorens TD-124.

Tombstone, the one with Kurt Russel and Val Kilmer. Seen it so many times but it’s still worth watching if only for the "Gun trick" Scene Doc Holiday steals, and the actual gunfight. That is probably one of the most true to life enactments of a face to face western gunfight ever put to the silver screen. The fear, the first draw and how it occurs. The running, the blind shooting at times, and the sudden cessation of shooting when it’s over.
I doubt it’s what really happened blow by blow, but few gunfights were of the classic “high noon meet in the street”, and this scene really impresses me in its human portrayal of the characters, whether the characters actually were like that or not. The different emotions they portray I think are accurate of different peoples reactions to that sort of fight.
