Last movie/film you watched?

[Kage]

Why?

Just out of curiosity.

[planewreck]

It usually strays away from being classic for me because of how it handles its subplots, but its dream sequences are some of my favorite put to film, not only because they're imaginative but how realistic it feels. He has a way of showing us love without being heavy handed about it, mixing humor (the masturbation scene and the memories as a child) with sentimentality without being schmaltzy. Everything else plays second fiddle to this, including the scenes involving Dunst even if they serve a grander purpose, and it sorts of takes away from the better parts of the film, but it's all wrapped up in the best possible ending for the film.

Also, Carrey is at his best and Winslet plays charmingly annoying well.

[Kage]

Carrey's performance is great, but to me it handled grave subject matter in a very light-hearted way.

[Schyma]

I really can't find a single complaint about it. Kate Winslet and Jim Carrey were fantastic together, the plot was great, the screenwriting and directing both did a great job, it was funny and clever, and best of all it just captures love beautifully. I'm in awe everytime I see it and I'm always finding something new I didn't see before. I can't imagine anyone not liking it.

[planewreck]

Carrey's performance is great, but to me it handled grave subject matter in a very light-hearted way.
He handled it like a wounded lover; it wasn't his performance but his character that handled a very grave subject matter in a very light-hearted way. It's just who he was.

[Kage]

Well that's what I mean...the film in general underplayed the truly horrifying notions of its concept, and I hated the Dunst subplots, like you mentioned they were just distractions in the end.

As for capturing love, I've never been in love so maybe there's something I'm missing there. Although generally I can be moved by a great depiction of love in a movie; to me that connection wasn't there in Eternal Sunshine.

I empathized for Carrey's character but only because of Carrey's fantastic performance. The script was weak.

[planewreck]

spoilers

I think that was the point. It was a black comedy and nobody realized it. Only Dunst, at the end after having realized that erasing her memory didn't work and love can't just be sweeped away by forgetting the memories that came of it, realized the gravity of the situation. That's why the doctor is cast in a slightly mad light, because he looks at it like it's nothing at all. I don't think the director intended for the film to look at it light-heartedly, just those stupid enough to believe in the system.

Zardoz

Post-apocalyptic film from 1974. This film's got everything: Sean Connery in a red latex diaper, a gigantic stone head that's spitting weapons and a full lecture about erection. Behind all of this, however, there are serious matters lurking. A strange satire over mankind and it's desire to conquer and dominate others.

running scared is a film that never learned the phrase "less is more" or that there is "too much of a good thing," but in this case "too much of anything."

it also believes that coincidences aren't just coincidences. ever.

Great movie,I think more people should watch it and see what happens to people who judge people by the colour of there skin,the hitler thing is outdated now,alot of people need to see this happening in person,in time.

28 Days Later

One of the few recent "horror" movies I enjoy. I love the whole idea of survival and how they go about it. Pretty interesting how they start out fighting the infected and end up fighting healthy humans. Sort of fits into the "man killing man" theme.

The camera work and soundtrack are just incredible. I think my favorite scene is shortly after Jim gets out of the hospital, and he's crossing Westminster Bridge, with Big Ben and parliament in the background, and the city is just completely deserted.

I picked up the soundtrack yesterday. I can't stop listening to it. It's pretty much brilliant.

I also need to pick up The Virgin Suicides soundtrack.

And, on that note:
The Virgin Suicides

Written and directed by Sofia Coppola and starring Kirsten Dunst. The story in this is so very well told, and it really makes you care about all the characters. I like everything about this movie, despite how incredibly depressing it is.

4.5-5/5

[Knifeboy]

Carrey's performance is great, but to me it handled grave subject matter in a very light-hearted way.

It handled a grave subject matter, in a very realistic, way....
It takes something that's basicly sci-fi, and makes it completely believable, mostly because the relationship portrayed in the film is very credible.. Unlike the overblown unrealistic view on love, most hollywood movies give

It's true. It's the stone head (the "god" Zardoz) who says it to indoctrinate his followers to kill other humans. It goes:

Zardoz: The gun is good.
Exterminators: The gun is good.
Zardoz: The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth and kill!

I seen Click and it wasn't bad, but he's definitely typecast i think from what i have seen.

Click was horrible.

Punch Drunk Love was great.

Sandler is funny but he gets more credit than he deserves. He's the white man's Mencia without all of the joke theft.

Princess Mononoke - It was good, but it felt like it was missing something. Compared to Spirited Away, the only other Miyazaki film I've seen so far, it wasn't that great, but I was entertained nevertheless. 8/10

[VomitStainedCretin]

Mean Machine - Generic, predictable but still enjoyable and quite funny British prison football('soccer' not gridiron) drama with Vinnie Jones. 5/10

The Dead Zone - based on the Stephen King novel and directed by Cronenberg, very slightly spoilt by previously seeing the Simpsons Horror Halloween spoof but a good film, though not Cronenberg's best by far. The script was also slightly flat I felt. Christopher Walken plays a teacher who awakes from a coma after 5 years with psychic powers. At first seeing it as a curse, he then allows himself to be used in order to identify a serial killer. Meanwhile a local politician, Martin Sheen's sinister Greg Stillson, amasses an increasingly popular third party campaign aiming to make him a Maine senator... 7.5/10

What do you people see in the Science of Sleep that I'm missing? The film has quirks and brings dreams to life, but the relationship between the two is never exactly strengthened past a rudimentary level, not to mention the man is ****ing crazy and should probably seek professional help. The film never gives a real reason why she should or would fall in love with him.

[AmericanWeiner]

spoilers

I'm trying to figure out a way to explain it and I just dont think I can. It wasn't about the dreams or the quirks really, it was about the bond between them.

He's the type of person that's always rejected, probably because he's pretty strange, and she's the type of person that is scared of getting hurt. She has no trouble partying with a guy she has no intention of seeing again, but when it comes to someone she could really fall for, she freezes. She liked him until she discovered he didn't want Zoe. She was scared to commit and that made him loony. He didn't understand why she would "play" with him, when really she just didn't know how to open her heart up and love him, despite wanting to.

Imagine having a best friend that you're sexually attracted to, and MAYBE having her sexually attracted to you, but she refuses to date you. Your friends tell you it's not how you think it is, she gives you no straight answer. You're forced to be around her all the time. It's really impossible to deal with something like that and it's impossible to face it until you know for certain that it won't happen. Teetering on the edge like that can wreck your mind...it can invade your dreams..and it can make you pretty freaking crazy.

There's a difference between what you're explaining, which is a normal reaction, and the borderline psychotic nature of how he is. There is no reason someone would become the messed up in the head just because some girl is teasing with him unless he was already very, very unstable to begin with, in which case, the film looks at his behavior way too lightly. He was like that before he met her, so she's just affecting what he hallucinates about. There wasn't really a bond; there was a simple misunderstanding and pressuring to like or love the other without reason. I don't doubt that there are people like that, but the film tries to pass it off like legitimate chemistry when it's obvious it thinks something else.

[Kurrpt]

honestly AW


that explanation is only a small part of the actual movie. sure, you could chalk up the entire movie as the relationship between the main character and his love interest

but the way you explain the movie, it sounds like a chick movie, through and through.

Obviously, I've seen it (actually copied the DVD too) and would probably watch it another half-dozen times

[AmericanWeiner]

guys im not trying to say that was a normal reaction. His mother said he always had trouble telling his dreams from reality but I don't think they were hallucinations as in this is literally what he saw.

Obviously there's a naivety to it, like when she catches him in her apartment, but that's part of the attraction.

like I said I don't think it's a movie than can be explained.

[VomitStainedCretin]

Phantom of the Paradise: Brian De Palma's 70s glam rock musical adaptation of Faust and Phantom of the Opera. Winslow Leach, a composer and singer, has his music, a sonata based on Faust, stolen by sinister record producer Swan, who wants to use the music for the opening of his club, the Paradise. He has Winslow framed for drug addiction, resulting in his being sent to Sing Sing, were his teeth are pulled out and replaced with metal. Winslow escapes and attempts to destroy Swan's record factory but is horribly deformed when his head is trapped in a record presser. Masking his disfigurment, Winslow terrorises the Paradise, leading to Swan agreeing to produce his sonata in the style originally desired, on condition that he signs a contract in blood. Winslow wants his sonata to be sung by his love interest Phoenix but Swan has other plans...

Despite being somewhat outdated, actually very enjoyable with a decent soundtrack. 8/10

Reservoir Dogs - 9.5/10. this movie is just so weird and twisted i love it. steve buschemi (dont know how to spell it) is hilarious in this

[Meatplow]

I can't think of a film with Buscemi in it i didn't find him great in.

[Kage]

"Hilarious" wouldn't be the way I'd describe Buscemi in that. :confused:

[Akira]

That new Interview film is apparently mediocre. But yeah, Buscemi rocks overall.

[Knifeboy]

Just watched Eternal Sunshine again..
The part where the house starts cracking is one of the most emotional scenes for me...
Had they made the movie so it ended after that, it had probably been one of the most depressing movies out there

9.5/10

[Schyma]

Science of Sleep ~ 9/10

I watched it again on DXM and it was indescribably beautiful. It made much more sense watching it a second time, it also probably helped that I was on a psychoactive drug too.

[exodus]

Someone suggest a movie that Natalie Portman looks really hot in (other than Star Wars)

[EightMilesHigh]

The Professional.

[Otherside]

V for Vendetta if you like baldies

[exodus]

The Professional.

I like them when they're young...not too young

V for Vendetta if you like baldies
Seen it, yes she still looked hot as **** as a bald.

Any others

[Cocaine]

she's a stripper in closer bt the movie sucks

[talk show host]

Caught up on a few films i've been meaning to see recently

The Science of Sleep - It was alright, nothing too spectacular. The acting was good and it was a lot funnier than I was expecting but after all i'd heard about it, I was expecting more. It was such a blatant Gondry film in the sense that it was just like watching an extended Bjork music video from 1994 - I mean, the dream sequences were good but the whole thing struck me as the work of a director with limited ideas. I'm pretty gay for Gael Garcia Bernal though so that bumps it up a bit. 7

Green Street Hooligans - Not bad. Elijah Wood still manages to annoy me in almost every role he plays and the whole film just feels a bit corny but it did keep my attention. Oh, and the last thirty minutes are completely melodramatic and OTT which seemed a bit silly for a film about football hooligans. As far as the subject matter goes, I probably prefer The Football Factory even if it is probably a worse film. 6

The Departed - Good film. DiCaprio was brilliant in it and you can't help but love everything Jack Nicholson does. Matt Damon I thought was pretty crap but not bad enough to ruin the film. I haven't seen the original so I don't know how it compares but I thought it was well paced except for the ending where everything just seemed to happen. What was in the envelope that DiCaprio gave to the psychiatrist anyway? I missed that. I only just finished watching it so I haven't really thought it over, but it was solid. Not the so called return to form that people were saying though - The Aviator and Gangs of New York were both better. 7

[Cocaine]

What was in the envelope that DiCaprio gave to the psychiatrist anyway? I missed that.
It was a recording of Damon's character that he took in the porn theatre. Very incriminating.

[talk show host]

It was a recording of Damon's character that he took in the animal photographs theatre. Very incriminating.

I thought that was a completely different envelope though? He gave her a blank brown envelope. The one with the recording in was white and addressed and she just found it by accident.

[Tillius]

When a Stranger Calls(remake)

Not the first time I've watched it. Just kinda caught it on the tube because nothing else was on. I liked the original, but this one just isn't that good. The only redeeming factor is Camilla Belle.

2/5

[EightMilesHigh]

Punch-Drunk Love (2002)

I was half-surprised at how much I liked this. I mean, I like Paul Thomas Anderson, and I like Emily Watson and Philip Seymour Hoffman is always great, but I was a little wary of how Adam Sandler could pull off a :serious: performance.

He did an amazing job. You see his problems and you feel for him, you want him to be ok and have a good life and a good relationship, and there's a happy ending and I turned off the TV feeling really good. Makes me wish I could have a relationship like that, haha.

5/5, highly recommended. Just a nice low-key romance movie.

[(*The Noonward Race*)]

yeah he surprised me in that reign on me or rain on me or whatever

[bradc1988]

Howl's Moving Castle - It was okay, nothing spectacular, the old woman annoyed me from the start so it wasn't easy to get into. 7/10

[AlienEater]

Children of Men
Seven

Both 5/5. I can't think of anything else to say

[bradc1988]

28 Weeks Later - The first 10 minutes were so intense that the rest of the movie didn't really seem that great, although overall it was quite good. INTENSE. 8/10

[dazmo]

Harry Potter

Loved it, but im a big HP fan. My favourite so far:

9.8/10

[Interstate]

I watched Cars last night. Was quite good.

[AlienEater]

Crank

What a terrible film. It's just Jasan Statham running around killing people and taking drugs so he doesn't get killed by some chinese poison. Has the most annoying camera work and editing ever. Ok it is reasonably enjoyable at times, but it is also retarded, irritating and very bad

1.5/5

[JohnXDoesn't]

The Prestige

good flick about two turn of the century magicians with a couple of grudges trying to undo one another. elements of suspense, drama, a hint of romance, and lots of danger. very good performances with a bit of a convenient ending and then a flash of a implausible final end, but wtf.

POSSIBLE SPOILER

anyway the one guys greatest trick in the film (The REAL Human Transporter) that supposedly saw him dead / murdered....how did he do that? i think they explained it but i didn't quite catch it. anyway:

7.5/10

[lazyash01]

I just watched The Fountain again. Its really good, but I think you do have to watch it at least twice to get the whole point of the movie and what its all about. Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz do a great job with the acting too.

[-Listy-]

When he goes through Teslas machine? ( havent seen it in a while :p )

everytime he goes through it he falls into the water tank under the stage and basically dies over and over again while a clone teleports to the balcony. thats why there were rows of tanks i think at the end of the clones under the stage, and explains how he finds lots of hats outside after visiting Tesla halfway through the film when they test their machine on his hat.

Jason Statham is such an awful actor. Everything he did after Snatch sucked.

[poorquality]

Rocky Balboa

I liked it, maybe just because I always have loved the films, but also I thought the final fight, the sheer determination to never give up despite being an off the board outsider and the final send off were really well done.

[apple pie]

Miami Vice is def worse then 2/10. I demanded my money back after that atriosity

[Akira]

I was going to say, 2/10 is generous. What an awful, awful movie. The only redeeming quality was when that dude got shot in the chest with the shotgun.
Honestly, those characters were flat enough to give the guys from Hostel a run for their money. It was absolutely impossible for me to care about anyone or anything, because the whole time I was thinking about how stupid everyone was. The average cartoon has more character development per episode than that movie.

[JohnXDoesn't]

^ being it was based on an old shallow tv show maybe it was supposed to be like that? the film must have had some style? and Micheal Mann is awesome.

i've wanted to see it.

Clones? too preposterous for this film. thats one of the things i didn't like about the film. it got sort of "out there" sometimes. i prefer it grounded.

Bowie was very good in his small role, however

-----------------------------------------------

POSSIBLE SPOILER

EDIT: ok, so tesla's machine was a cloning machine? i think it was. but did the film ever divulge that? i don't think so. which made the movie seem that much more outrageous in the end.

[Kage]

I really don't think it's that bad.

You must have been on the toilet during that whole scene...
There's a scene in the middle of the movie where a couple of cats, and about 100 hats gets cloned at tesla's house

(wich made the end come off as not being a suprise at all, wich was odd)

[3074326]

It wasn't so much a cloning machine as one that duplicated the person in their entirety, including their personality.

And yes, the film did show it both with the cat and hat scene and the prestige materials at the end.

[E sharp]

@3074326: Better late than never on a great film i suppose. I myself watched it a few months ago. Couldn't believe i missed out on it for so long.

Hors de prix (Priceless) - 9/10

Really enjoyed tis French film. It has Audrey Tautou in it and she is soo good looking in this. You even see her nipple for that millisecond. Its about Tautou's character being a gold digger and she finds this dude (hotel worker) that pretends to be a millionaire. She finds out he's not what she thinks he is so she leaves him but he doesn't leave her. All in all, an enjoyable romantic comedy.

[talk show host]

Zodiac

I loved this, even though you know he won't be caught before you see the film it still manages to be incredibly suspenseful. The scene where Graysmith goes to that guys basement had me crapping myself. I wasn't sure how the ending was going to be wrapped up satisfactorily but I thought it worked well. Probably up there with Se7en as my favourite Fincher film, maybe just behind. 8

[VomitStainedCretin]

Magnolia: Eight interlocking stories - a naive cop trying his best at his job; a quiz show host dying of bone cancer; his estranged coke head daughter; a child star winner of the quiz show now failing in life; a boy competing in the quiz show's current run pressured by his uncaring father to do well; an ex-producer of the quiz show dying of lung cancer; his guilt-ridden wife unable to cope with his imminent death; his nurse attempting to contact his long lost son; and a misogynistic seduction guru refusing to face his past. From the director of Boogie Nights, a skillfully woven web of deceit, past callousness and exploitation. 8.5/10

[arrell]

Uncle Buck

Such a funny film, featuring the semi-legendary John Candy as the title character. Your typical feelgood and funny film.

Miles: Where do you live?
Buck: In the city.
Miles: You have a house?
Buck: Apartment.
Miles: Own or rent?
Buck: Rent.
Miles: What do you do for a living?
Buck: Lots of things.
Miles: Where's your office?
Buck: I don't have one.
Miles: How come?
Buck: I don't need one.
Miles: Where's your wife?
Buck: Don't have one.
Miles: How come?
Buck: It's a long story.
Miles: You have kids?
Buck: No I don't.
Miles: How come?
Buck: It's an even longer story.
Miles: Are you my Dad's brother?
Buck: What's your record for consecutive questions asked?
Miles: 38.
Buck: I'm your Dad's brother alright.
Miles: You have much more hair in your nose than my Dad.
Buck: How nice of you to notice.
Miles: I'm a kid - that's my job.

Hehe, funny stuff. Another classic moment:

[Buck's beat-up old car pulls up]
Bug: Ever hear of a tune-up? Hee hee hee hee hee.
Buck: Ah, heh heh heh. Ever hear of a ritual killing? Ah, heh heh heh heh heh
Bug: I don't get it.
Buck: You gnaw on her face in public like that again and you'll be one. Ah, heh heh heh heh!

9.5/10

[Interstate]

Watched Lee Evans XL Tour 2005 again for the millionth time last night. It's still hilarious.

[Meatplow]

The part where he unscrews the door with the circular drill while the guy is trying to have sex with his niece is the only scene i remember.

Jason Statham is such an awful actor. Everything he did after Snatch sucked.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift- 4/10

If your expecting hot women, cool cars, and cool action squences, you'll def. not be dissappointed.

[AmericanWeiner]

Me and You and Everyone We Know 7/10

This movie's been pretty hyped up and in this post wes anderson world of film where this sort of deprived character story is commonplace, M&Y&EWK seems unique, but it's hard to hold on to for some reason. I picked up a theme on human contact (in fact one of the main characters stated this in a way), but I still feel that it's a very abstract story for the sake of story, which isn't entirely a bad thing. All in all it feels very contemporary and if you're into this sort of film (think Royal Tennenbaums, The Science of Sleep, Sideways, etc) you'll probably think this a solid 7/10.

[DeckerDontPlay]

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift- 4/10

If your expecting hot women, cool cars, and cool action squences, you'll def. not be dissappointed.

But no Paul Walker. BOOOOOOO!

Basically exactly how I reviewed it. No substance, but can you expect any?
I was interested to learn that apparently now Japanese people actually carry out conversations in English, only switching to Japanese for short phrase to heighten drama.

[simplephotographinthesun]

leon / the professional

8.5 / 10

rollicking action shoot 'em up, great performances by jean reno, natalie portman, and gary oldman (who is hilarious in this). however, the end credits song is too cheesy.

[PrettyVacant98]

I just got done watching CSA: confederate states of america

Its totally weird, but well done. its weird because its like a documentary on a history that never happend, but thats what also makes it interesting. slavery is still around, and basically the rest of the world hates us for it. theres a war with canada and stuff. if you want somthin that will make you think then give it a go, but dont expect it to be amazing, because you will most likely be disappointed

[planewreck]

Music and Lyrics

I usually hate or kinda like these sort of films, but this film was excellent. Maybe it's the fact that Drew Barrymore can make any film at least tolerable or that the characters weren't complete idiots that made every problem last days on end or that the dialogue actually seemed smooth and real, but this film just seemed to work. Completely predictable, but otherwise a nice little crowd pleaser.

4/5

[PrettyVacant98]

I just finished watching strangeland

i have to say, i really like this movie despite how freakin crazy it is. Dee Snider isnt the best actor in the world, but who else would you think of when u think of holding teens hostage in his basement and peircing them in places that shouldnt be peirced... among other crazy things that he does in that movie, but overall if you can stomach some of the weirdness and some gross scenes then i think its pretty good.

3/5 id say

[AlienEater]

But no Paul Walker. BOOOOOOO!

why would you want paul walker?

[talk show host]

Children of Men

Not sure I see what all the fuss is about to be honest. The uprising scenes were really good, and the camerawork thoughout was excellent but the plot was boring and took too long to really go anywhere. Eh, it was alright, it did look great. 7

Clerks

Another disappointment, although not really because I don't particularly like Kevin Smith films. Dante was annoying but that was the actor more than anything so I guess it's forgiveable seeing as how the film was pretty low budget. Jay and Silent Bob are retarded characters though. There were a couple of scenes that made me laugh and it's pretty short so it killed some time. 6

I actually liked Clerks quite a bit.

5/5

[Danger Duck]

Hahaha my dad rented Zodiac, The Number 23 (Unrated), and Perfume.

[black guy]

i just saw perfume last night. they did a really good job portraying a sense of smell. that was the most impressive thing about the movie, I think. dustin hoffman was terrible though and i preferred the books ending. actually i don't think the end of the movie really made any sense. 7/10

also i saw love actually, which was funny as hell. i was surprised at all the swearing and nudity and stuff, because i was expecting a generic slightly ambitious romance comedy. probably one of the best movies i've seen in the last few months. there hasn't been much competition though.

[PrettyVacant98]

Space Zombie Bingo
3/10, this is probly the worst movie ive ever seen in my life. the budget for this couldnt have been much more then 25$, its just pathetic, but its so terrible and horribly made that its actually hilarious, hence the 3 instead of 0. the boom mic is in a million shots, half the stuff is made from paper mache (i cant spell), and the narrator is the most obnoxious person ive ever seen in a movie. and it also has nothing to do with bingo at all, weird

Very moving and I like Lynch's style. Anthony Hopkins is terrific.

[Danger Duck]

Raising Arizona. A little low-brow for a Coen Bros. flick but they still do a great job of creating a little world with totally original characters and whatnot. 7/10

[thedeadwalk!]

Last Night

It's the end of the world and everyone knows it; covers various lives and how they spend their last hours.

The movie's ok. Doesn't address why the world is ending (looked like the Sun expanding) but it didn't really matter as that wasn't the point. However, for its characters, it skims over their motivations for resorting to barbarism or sticking to civility with reasons that aren't explored much and leave the film feeling hollow.

6/10

[Danger Duck]

The Number 23-2/10
What a ****ing horrible movie. So many plot holes it's not even funny. And the soap opera plot twists were laughable.

[PrettyVacant98]

I just watched two
Flight Plan 4/10

what a peice of garbage this movie is. Jodi Foster was just annoying as hell "help me find my daughter" "I need to find my daughter!!" every 5 seconds after the first 20 minutes. The plot wasnt that bad, it could have been much better then it was.

Versus 7/10

Good movie. the crazy plot and nonstop awesome action makes it instantly likeable. although, the plot was rather hollow after the main concept of the movie was out there. no character names or anything, just 2 escaped prisoners and like 5 yakuza in a forest infested with zombie samurai trying to kill them. A good, but not great movie.

[Akira]

Man. Flight Plan was awful. The plot had some potential, and parts seems interesting in the beginning, but then what ended up happing was just so cliche and boring.
And if I remember correctly, they explained what was happening way too early.

[br3ad_man]

The Seventh Seal - 5/5

Bergman is so incredible. I don't know any other director who makes me feel so fulfilled after watching one of their films.

[PrettyVacant98]

Fist of the North Star, animated movie 9/10

my high score is only because i love the anime so much. it has everything i love about the anime, deep emotional plot, great action, gross head/body explosions all the time, and great war scenes between two major clans. if uve ever seen the anime then you should give it a watch

[Akira]

The Twilight Zone was so awesome. Until they ditched Sterling and put it in color.
Some of them really are freaky.

[Kage]

Even some of the later episodes of the original Twilight Zone when Sterling was still there started to get lame. All the good episodes put the fear factor into what you don't see--some sort of mystery or the unknown causing problems whereas a lot of the later episodes starting getting so sensationalist. It seems like almost every one was an alien invasion with bad costumes at some point.

Regardless, one of the best shows ever made.

[superpeer]

Selling Innocence

Pretty lame and moralising, but I got to watch some pretty girls, which is exactly what the film is moralising against, lolol. I was bored.

4/10

[Akira]

Yeah, I agree. What made the good episodes so good was the mystery of it.
The black and white really adds a weird feel to it. I don't think that even the good episodes would have been quite as powerful in color.

I loved the show when I was younger, I never get the chance to watch it anymore.

[telemore]

teeheehee - i've been busy these past week or so huge post ahead

aight let's get started:

Wild at Heart I didn't finish it all (curses) but what I've seen I've loved.

City of God Finally saw this and I really enjoyed it. A solid 4/5 or even 4.5/5

Ran This was my first Kurosawa film and I loved the hell out of it. 5/5

(forgive my lacking of descriptions it's been some weeks since i've seen these)

Cavite Very interesting low budg - I quite liked it and even was able to overlook some of it's shortcomings and thin plot points. 4/5

Insomnia My first time seeing this and except for the ending which was totally predictable fromthe beginning was a real joy to watch. The more Nolan I see the more I like. 4/5

Solaris Finally. I finally watched the whole thing in one viewing. Incredible. Easily my number two in all time. 5/5

Throne of Blood Early Kurosawa on VHS. Macbeth but with Samurai. I loved every minute of it. 5/5

1408 ehh, it could've been so much better, not that it was too bad or anything but it left me wanting a lot more. 3/5

Pride Black swim team overcomes racism and adversity to win. omg 2/5

Tetsuo: The Iron Man When my friend told me about this I got giddy with excitement. I wanted to love it, and I did love the first half or so. And then the other Iron monster guy thing came into the story and it turned into a lame power rangers esque fight movie. meh. First half 4.5/5 second half 2.5/5 overall : 3.5/5

Harakiri I didn't finish all of it but what an incredibly tense and taut film. Very interesting - look forward to finishing. :)

Dr. Doolittle meh, eddie murphy talking dogs and things. enjoyable for what it's worth (not much tbh) 2/5

You've Got Mail omg what a shitfest. first offense - dave chapelle playing the stereotypical black guy. wtf. second offense - tom hanks not having any discernable testicles or man junk of any kind. third offense - meg ryan is ugly and smiles too much. struck out. 1/5 because i like happy endings and it made me almost cry omg

Cast Away I kind of wanted to see some better tom hanks and this was laying around (nevermind Forest Gump - I've got it memorized line for line. srsly) I like this one. 3.5/5

Purple Rain Prince is the man. 'nuff said. 4/5

Mulholland Dr One of my favorite movies ever. Brilliant. 5/5

Blade Runner Very nice. Very nice indeed. I watched the Directors Cut so there were somethings that made me go hmmmm. 4/5

I think that's it. I'm sure there's more but I didn't write down the names of those others.

:)

[telemore]

oh and Zathura - I really liked it. Favreau is great too. :) 4/5

[talk show host]

Catch Me If You Can

Such an underrated Spielberg film, no-one ever really seems to talk about it. Solid cast, good story and one of my favourite opening credit sequences. I much prefer it to a lot of Spielberg's more recent films, except probably Munich. 7

Brick

Film noir set in a high school. It's an interesting idea for a film that sort of works but also feels a bit awkward and silly at points. It draws you in but then you get a scene like at the Pin's house with his mother making them breakfast or Brenden in the "VP's" office where it's hard to take any of it seriously. It's well done but I think it could have been better without scenes emphasising that this is high school kids you're watching. 6.5

A lot of the lines in Brick were verbatim lifted from 40's gangster flicks. I agree that made it kind of out of place, but I love Film Noir a lot, so the little homages sprinkled in really were a + for me

The Italian Job

6.5/10

[PrettyVacant98]

Sleepy Hollow 6/10

It wasnt bad, but could have been better. A lot of the dialog was boring and took me out of the film at times, but overall its a good one. and about as good as it gets when it comes to Headless Horseman movies.

Cape Fear 7/10

It was ok, lame at times, good at others. Robert deniro was the best part of the movie, and juliet lewis, ha.

[Kage]

Sleepy Hollow kicks *** to be honest.

So does Cape Fear.

[RunAmokRampant]

I loved the atmosphere that Tim Burtons created in Sleepy Hollow.

[fingers mccoy]

serenity

likable but there shouldve just been more series

[AlienEater]

Sleepy Hollow is awesome

Santa Sangre

Last movie Jodorowsky has made. It's kind of an oddity in that it actually has a real plot. Not quite as good as Holy Mountain or El Topo but still has its moments of utter genius

4/5

Pride Black swim team overcomes racism and adversity to win. omg 2/5Did they have this guy on their side?: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_the_Eel

Dancer in the Dark: Lars Von Trier film starring Bjork as a Czech immigrant in 60s USA going blind due to a hereditory disease who is trying to save money for an operation to save her son's sight, finding escape through fantasizing that she is a musical star. Use of 'amateur' handheld filming, somewhat questionable acting ability of Bjork, self-indulgence of musical fantasies and downward spiral into an utterly bleak ending make this a somewhat difficult film to watch and it's understandable why it got a very mixed reaction when it was released. However overall I enjoyed it. 7/10

Fresh: centres around 12 year old Michael (or 'Fresh'), a drug runner for various gangs in the projects of New York, in his attempt to escape from a life of poverty and brutality by playing off the gangs against each other, guided by his alcoholic father, played by Samuel L. Jackson, who is a master at speed chess. A good film once you get past the ebonics. 7.5/10

Key Largo

Quite a good crime film, starring Humphrey Bogart and directed by John Huston, who also did The Maltese Falcon. I enjoyed it a lot, it was well acted and such.

4/5

[SoulSeekerz]

The New Hairspray with John Travolta/ Chris Walken

8/10

Very entertaining. Lot's of fun & a great popcorn movie.

[Concubine]

The Simpsons

surprisingly, it didn't suck. It was very good, actually.

8/10

[PrettyVacant98]

Punk: Attitude 8/10

it was a documentary on punk in the 70s, very well done too. i certinly recomend it

When a Stranger Calls 4/10

It was packed full of cliches around every turn, total medicoracy. they could have done more with the plot, in some parts i thought it was going to pick up but i was let down, a redeeming thing about it is that the chick is hot, lol, and it was somwhat suspensful even though you knew what was going to happen around every turn.

[Interstate]

You Did What? - romantic comedy time film, watched it with my girlfriend. Meh.

[superpeer]

Caligula

I've a great interest in Roman life and Caligula in particular, but this didn't do much for me. There were some interesting parts and some of the acting was pretty good, but they focused too much on trying to get in gory and pornographic scenes into the film that they took away the attention from the story and the actual film. 5.5/10

i love Dustin Hoffman's act playing, he's my favourite actor actually

so you're saying I'd like it?








j/k :p

The Simpsons

8/10

Really?! Every joke in the trailer looks awful.

[Kage]

The Simpsons movie looks really bad.

[unknownsoldier12]

looks exactly like the Simpsons to me. I suppose it depends how much you like the series

[Kage]

I like the series.

[superpeer]

I'm definitely gonna catch it some time next week. Even if it is bad. The thought of watching a really long Simpsons episode is very appealing.

[Akira]

I want to see the Simpsons for only one reason: the Spiderpig joke made me laugh my *** off. I don't even know why, it just did.

[superpeer]

Does it have the incest, random senators executed, wife snatching and budget deficits of Suetonius?

Pretty much, yeah. Although he didn't kill his sister in the film. I Claudius found a much better Caligula in John Hurt, tbh.

[Danger_Bird]

I'll probably go see Talk to Me this weekend, it looks really good.
