The Movie Topic (films recently watched, general discussion, etc)

[rock_n_frost]

it was one of the best movie of the year..

the problem is probably about what you expected from that movie before you watch.. 

[poofing acid]

I watched Throw Momma From The Train last night.  I lolled. Old Devito.  Classic

[black coffee]

well when it comes to a fantastic flick like Inglourious Basterds, opinions like mine and theis' are superior.

Well deserved

[bright lights, big city]

I appreciate it buddy

Im sure someone said they saw it, but no matter - a timely reminder for all those that havent...Blue Valentine - fucking absolutely fantastic.  Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling are stupendous.

I saw Horrible Bosses this weekend. The movie was kind of run of the mill but the cast elevates it to being a much better movie.

Watched Sucker Punch.

Not as bad as I was expecting, but definitely not something I'd ever watch again.

Felt like I was watching a videogame in most of the fight scenes. The steam zombies were pretty cool.

Oh, and Emily Browning is one hot little piece of ass.

Above average entertainment.

6/10.

[defskull]

That's pretty much what I thought. It got shit on quite a lot and I don't know why.

[bright lights, big city]

I felt the same way about Bridesmaids. I'm a big Kristen Wiig fan, so I was happy with her carrying the film. Definitely worth seeing once, even though it's been labeled as a women's comedy. Just probably don't really need to see it again.

Insidious.

Great first half. Creepy atmosphere, harrowing soundtrack, subtle scares...then enter Darth Maul and "The Further" and the movie takes a complete 180 to shitsville.

What a waste.

4/10.

X-Men First Class

Really 8.1 @ Imdb.com? LOL

2 out of 5

Rubber was a terrible movie. To quote a review of the movie: "The film is intellectual wankery of the highest order in the sheepskin of a B-film of the lowest order". I agree with this 100%.

[bright lights, big city]

I actually think 2 Marvel movies might be my favorite films of this year. X-Men and Thor. Loved just about everything that X-Men movie.

As far as Insidious goes, that's really disappointing. I've been recommended that, and have some hopes for it. Actually plan on watching it probably this weekend, along with I Saw The Devil.

[theis]

I Saw the Devil is fantastic.

[downtownpony]

fucked up.

I guess I should see the Devil yall seem to think it's pretty badass.
I haven't been keeping up with movies lately so the only thing I'm looking forward to is Captain America.

[blixa]

never gets old. i love you, bette.

[chick de la lynch]

I watch The First Wives Club every time it comes on television. Diane Keaton is watchable in anything. One of the few chick flicks I like.

[defskull]

Finally saw The Machinist. I loved the Hitchcock-esque pacing and score but I was so disappointed with the ending. It had a lot of potential but it's like they couldn't figure out a good ending for it all.

[bright lights, big city]

Insidious was excellent in my opinion.

Watched it. Loved it. I can see where Theis lost it when you see more of Darth Maul. But I thought they kept he looked creepy and they managed to not make him look lame. I liked the acting and story. I managed to freak the fuck out several times when seeing the demons.

suuuuch a good film. the ending wasn't crash hot so i agree, but i think the film was good enough (before the ending) for me to not be so disappointed. i came to this film disliking christian bale and now i really like him.
