The Movie Review Thread

[Korr]

Just watched with Wifey.

Post apocalyptic Denzel Washington takes a 30 year walk across the US in a MadMax world.

Can not recommend highly enough, wish I had time to watch again tonight, will have to wait until tomorrow though.

Thanks to ... I think it was Kimsquit? for the recommendation, great movie.

Book of Eli (which I enjoyed) was a remake of The Omega Man. If you have never seen it, then do so ASAP.

c'mon Brah, review the movie, what was good? What kind of sci fi? Future? aliens? Ghosts? Alien ghosts from the future?

Humanoid aliens running from evil aliens and hiding on earth.
There are supposed to be 9 of them but number 4 is the star and number 6 is hot.
They have special powers so theres a lot of explosions and alien firefight.
Has some humor as well.

[cowboybiker]

No, but some nice bikini action in the biggining.
And number 6 has a little southern twang which is a plus in my book.


note* Im waiting on Battle Los Angeles. Guy at the video stores gonna let me rent it early.

Wife and I attended 2 movies today, Pirates #4 and the newest X-Men. Pirates was enjoyable with the usual great special effects, but the story seemed forced and was more of the same ole stuff we have seen before. Except for the mermaid scene which was excellent.

Then we saw X-men whatever the heck number this one is. Excellent prequel that sums up how a few of the major characters came to be what they are in the later movies. Kevin Bacon was fantastic in his role as the uber bad guy.

[cowboybiker]

Yea, I just saw X-Men too. good story line and I agree with Corbi. It filled in a lot of gaps about how it all began. I'd watch it again when it comes out on dvd.

[whatevergirl]

Saw Hangover 2. It was reeeeallly funny. Not AS funny as #1...But, very funny. I was surprised for a sequel. Don't want to give too much away.

Check it out.

Can't do that, for some reason I can't stand that Zach guy and refuse to watch anything he's in. Weird I know but we all have our idiosyncrasy's.

lol yea, but all together, there's a good onscreen synergy.

Bradley Cooper makes it all worth while.

Wait wat?

So--you didn't see the first one then?

Nope, haven't seen it.

And Bradley Cooper? Seriously? Only movie with him I recall was A-Team, didn't seem like anything special, maybe I have higher standards than you?<<<<<<No Homo btw.

hahaha @ no homo

To each's own...he's a cutie.

I highly suggest you give Hangover 1 a try...think you'd change your mind. I feel the way you do over the guy who played in Shallow Hal. What's his name? Jack Black? Granted, he was good in that movie. But, overrated actor. So, I tend to avoid movies he's in, too. Except Kung Fu Panda. He was the voice over...and my daughter forced me to see it.

Can't stand Black either, over acts in everything. Gullivers Travels was ruined because he was the lead in it, well that and the fact that the story line sucked.

Who DO you like?

Here's a movie suggestion...THE PIANIST. About the Holocaust, but very different. About a guy who ends up 'hiding' in bombed villages, so he will not be taken away into the concentration camps. It's deep, moving, sad...but, definitely gets you to think about what would be worse? Hiding from the nazis, worried every moment you'd be found...or being taken away to the camps. Makes you think.

[Corbi]

Who DO you like?

Johnny Depp is usually pretty good, also like Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Matt Damon, etc as male leads in films. Give me guns, explosions, fast cars and bikes, half naked or even fully naked women and it's probably a movie I will like. Preferrably all of the above in the same movie.

I like him. He has a certain "Joe ordinary" charm. Actors that don't look like Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise make movies more like IRL for me.

Pitt was great in Inglorious Bastards and I can't recall the name of the one where he played a goofball in a gym and ended up getting killed? Cruise is definitely a pretty boy and knows it, but I loved his acting in Knight & Day, he played the super agent way way over the top and it was funny as hell.

I could never watch a movie with you, Corbi.

So Fast & The Furious would be up your alley? That genre?

I don't mind guns and explosions, but not that being the entire movie. And if it happens within the first 5 minutes, I know I'll end up hating it.

I'm not a fan of Pitt either--but loved him in Inglorious Bastards. He's a very good actor. I just don't 'like' him.

The Expendables is right up my alley. Iron Man, Transformers, some of the Fast and Furious movies, hated that Tokyo Drift garbage. I want to be entertained and like movies with happy endings. Hated Seven with Pitt because of the bummer ending, didn't like Skyline because of the horrible ending.

Burn after reading

He's proven he can play a character which is great but I prefer him in Fight Club and Snatch (the spousal unit has been watching "My big fat gypsy wedding" and all I can think of is his character in Snatch, lol).

That's the one, Burn after Reading. His character was freakin hilarious. Have never seen the movie Snatch, will have too see if it's on any of my movie channels.

[whatevergirl]

Fight Club--awesome movie.

Anyone like horror flicks? Not me, really. After I saw THE RING... I was done. srs. I still think about that lil girl coming out of my tv set! ha

[GuyJin]

WEG,

Did you see the Western version or the Japanese one? The Japanese one is infinitely spookier. Same director (I think) but having seen both versions, I'll go with the Japanese one.

Also watched X-Men, First Class. Quite good; much better than the Wolverine movie.

[hochspeyer]

Ringu is at our library- I haven't checked it out because I am definitely not a fan of horror.
