Saw "Hombre" last night. Don't know how I missed it with all the TV watching we do, but I thought it was kinda boring. Has to have the least amount of dialogue ever. Paul Newman did the best he could on this one.

I saw "Breach" recently. Its about the capture of Robert Haansen, the russian spy. Great movie. Also saw Sentinal, which was good, but not great.

Yeah,I saw it too.Really good movie.I thought it was something that they had been looking for this traitor for decades,and the traitor was leading the investigation.Ryan Phillipe looked like he was punching way out of his weight class alongside the great Chris Cooper.

He won the oscar for Adaptation.Thats a strange,complex performance,if ever Ive seen one.He was also great in American Beauty.
His rugged looks probably made it hard for him to break into Hollywood.But sometimes talent wins out over looks.Look at Kathy Bates,or Robert Duval or Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

The Right Stuff. (Movie about choosing and training the original 7 Mercury astronauts)

Good mix of original and hollywood film.

Pretty good, even the kids liked it, they usually don't like "dated" movies.

300 (at theater) -- great movie, quite possibly the most violent movie I've ever seen, incredibly gory, albeit almost entirely CGI
Unforgiven (on DVD) -- quite good, but I was not prepared for the pacing, now that I know, will have to see it again

Shooter,with Mark Wahlberg and Danny Glover.It felt like one of those late 80's,early 90's action flicks where you kill tons of people and there doesnt have to be any logic,and there are no consequenses for your actions.
In other words,I enjoyed it a lot.Good fun as long as you turn your brain off.

Now, Voyager 1942 starring Bette Davis.

There are a couple of shots and scenes on a ship that I'm just about sure were borrowed by James Cameron for Titanic.

Saw Borat finally. 7/10. Mostly funny, but I did feel a little uncomfortable laughing at all these people who apparently weren't let in on the joke.

Detective Night

Did a triple feature last night complete with an episode of Get Smart, a Three Stooges short and some Pulp Trailers.

This required one can of Starbucks Iced Coffee and one can of Red Bull

First up was "The Scarface Mob" a Westinghouse/Desilu production about Eliot Ness, originally a two part TV production it was edited into a feature film and released to theaters.
This was excellent, very high production values and Burlesque scene that seems pretty racy for 1959 TV!

Next up was the pilot for "The Streets of San Francisco"
Very nostalgic for anyone who grew up watching TV in the early 70's, the ending was kind of silly but enjoyable.

Last but not least was the pilot episode of "Moonlighting"
I have never watched a single episode of this show till last night but I'll be catching up now.
