High Fidelity.

Iron Man

solid film ... it's going to be a little slow for some - i find the 'origions' episodes are usually a little short on action ... but Downey was always fun to watch.

it wont leave you breathless or stunned ... but it was good entertainment.

[newb]

Right now I'm watching The Beatles at Shea Stadium......what a great piece of history

After that its going to be[REC] or INSIDE.....haven't made a decision yet.

[urgeok2]

my son just started Ju Jitsu .. so we watched Enter the Dragon just now :)

[jenna26]

Boogeyman 2 ~ not quite what I was expecting, not sure if that is a good thing, or a bad thing. ;) Not exactly great but kind of works as a slasher. Which basically means mostly silly with a couple of decent death scenes.

[newb]

Yeah....you have to see this one.:D

About 4 months back when I posted the trailer. Glad you liked it.:)




Iron Man.


Holy shit is this movie AMAZING or what?! If you are a true comic book geek and loved those old issues of Marvel, this is an absolute MUST-SEE for you.

Even if you are not one, go watch it. Its 100 minutes of pure entertainment from start to finish, and Downey is perfect as the lead. No downers, no flaws...this is one rock solid entertainer.

(On a small side note, be sure to catch the ending) ;)

Downey... Downers... I thought it was funny, sorry.

[Abominus]

The new Day of the Dead. Just finished it right now and all I can say is laaaaaame. What a garbage movie. Who ever thought introducing young rappers to movies was a good idea needs to be murdered.

I, for one, enjoyed the remake of Dawn so this movie was especially terrible. I can't even describe how worthless the movie was and I can find redeeming qualities in most movies.

Don't pay for it.

If you're a zombie purist, watch it once so you can say you've seen it.

It gets a big D from me.

Bad porno acting, destroyed storyline, Spiderman skills from zombies and when you introduce said young rapper and have hims spouting lines like "Save that shit for Oprah!" and "it looks like a Puffy video" it makes everyone look bad.

:mad:

Currently watching the Golden Compass, and liking it a lot.

hello everyone I haven't been on here in awhile but hello anyway,
the last seen movie was Hatchet and Halloween and freddy's new nightmare

[cactus]

[Rec] - Wow! All that everyone said...outstanding and ultra-creepy.

[Posher778]

The Golden Compass- 7/10

I really enjoyed this. I liked the acting, the plot, everything. It looked amazing too. My only real problem with the film was the pacing. It wouldve been fine if it was longer, they didn't need to make it fast forward the whole time. Also, the action scenes were too rushed. other than that I thought it was an enjoyable fantasy/adventure.

[urgeok2]

Cloverfield ... again


less impact the second time around - on an 8' screen instead of the theatre - but i'm still in awe of the film.

an incredible gift for fantasy film lovers.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here. I want to be very, very clear that Cloverfield entertained me quite a bit, and I did like it.

But does anyone else find it a little too...well, gimmicky?
I can't even imagine watching it twice, because after the shock and awe is gone there really doesn't seem to be much else there.

i didnt find it any more gimmicky than any other horror film ...

i thought it had a story to tell - and it told it. i enjoyed the performances, i enjoyed the progression of events ... and i'll probably see the film several times more.

as i mentioned - something is definately lost once you take the film out of the theatre - it's a giant monster film that works best with a giant screen to maintain the aspect ratio between the small you and the humoungous 'it'

but seeing it a second time just reinforced to me how incredibly well made it was.

i actoually found it less gimmicky than any other horror film i've seen in ages - and by that i mean dispite the fantasy premise it took the approach of what would happen if this was possible - and i believe the events and the actions of the characters were extremely natural and believable.

[SamCostello]

Iron Man – Good, and fun, but as great as I expected it would be, actually. Turns out a lot of Downey’s best lines were in the trailer, sadly. Still, fun, and I expect that the next one will be great.

Borderland

Solid acting. Pacing was good, thought it developed well. Pretty brutal, too. Very decent movie, in my opinion.

[horrorobsessed]

Planet Terror.........finally. 6/10

it's funny, i had to wait for my mom to go out of town until i was able to rent it. it was a good movie and i liked it, but it just seemed kind of corny. "I never miss." What was that? the whole tongue thing grossed me out though. Freddy Rodrieguez is freaking hot though.

[Dante'sInferno]

@ Return

I wouldn't go so far as to say it was rude. He's right, you know- the entire Grindhouse project was set in motion with the intention of campy, cheesy, exploitation homage. If you go in expecting anything but these attributes, you will not enjoy them.

[Niklaus]

I watched "Beyond the door" this afternoon... SEVERELY underrated - I thoroughly enjoyed it.

A Snake of June.

If you like the spastic, sexual style of Shinya Tsukamoto you'll like this. I thought it was beautifully shot and weird as hell.

[newb]

Was going to watch INSIDE last night....but it was late and I didn't want to fall asleep in the middle....so I put Rocky Balboa on instead. I liked the first and second Rocky....got bored with the rest so I was surprised that this was good enough to keep my attention through the whole thing. A nice cap on the Rocky franchise I suppose.

[jenna26]

Sunshine ~ had some problems with the last few minutes, but I loved most of it.

Danika ~ some of it is surprisingly good. Tomei was good as the lead. Some would have a problem with the ending, I know. Oh and Craig Bierko annoyed the hell out of me, so that hurt it a bit for me as well. Overall, definitely had its moments, but not great.

The Marsh ~just a bore for the most part, but I absolutely hated the ending.

American Gangster ~ liked it a lot, a solid film with good performances by Washington and Crowe (oh and so happy to see Josh Brolin pop up in another good movie! ;) )

And also, American Gangster put me in the mood for L.A. Confidential, so watched most of that last night as well.

[Niklaus]

I watched Lamberto Bava's "Macabre" last night - Probably the best Bava Jr. film I have seen thus far. It's definitely scary, wierd and certainly nothing short of macabre. Check it out.

Jaws 2.
The film ended and I kept wondering "what was the point in making this lame sequel except to cash on the original?" :rolleyes:

[snagglepuss]

Caught a couple of theatrical releases recently, Funny because the movie I thought I'd like the most I ended up disliking and the one I figured I'd be indifferent at best about I actually really enjoyed. That said don’t waist your box office dollars on Forbidden Kingdom. Although if you are interested in just having a jolly old theatre going time then go and see Zombie Strippers with Jena Jameson. Trust me you haven’t seen zombies tell you've seen em pole dance.

What an amazing film. There isn't much I can say about this awesome action packed Comic Book flick other then RDJ was the perfect casting choice EVER made for a lead in a comic book movie. He was BORN to play Tony Stark. Favs definitely hit this one right out of the park. Now let's hope and pray that The Dark Knight is a million times better then this like I know and hope it will be.

9/10

I watched that one and Harold and Kumar at a party... Jay and Silent Bob NEVER get old (but you're talking to somebody who loves every Askewniverse movie and even liked Jersey Girl).



IRON MAN

I can't wait for the Avengers movie, the Capt. America Movie, the Thor Movie, and even... yes... I'll probably see the Ant Man movie. I don't know what was missing from Iron Man, don't get me wrong I had a BLAST and want to see it again in the theater at least once, but I liked Batman Begins and Spiderman better as far as superhero movies go. *SHRUG*

I think Jersey girl is Kevin Smiths best film. (Jay and silent Bob Strike Back is my favorite - but Jersey girl is a great film - and probably technically better.)

[urgeok2]

Arthur and the Invisibles (Luc Besson)

i heard nothing but terrible things about this film - it wasnt as bad as i thought.
the live action parts were good - and the animation was really cool.

some of the voice actors were badly cast (like di nero) but David Bowies character was great.

all in all - not that bad a film.

I'm suprised anyone Mr Dudley Doright trying to be a rebel sexy. I liked the story/characters but really hated the majority of the actors.

I think Jersey girl is Kevin Smiths best film. (Jay and silent Bob Strike Back is my favorite - but Jersey girl is a great film - and probably technically better.)

I saw it out of the blue when an ex girlfriend hired it. Don't think I would've watched it otherwise because of the cast (Jo Lo, Will Smith, Ben Affleck). I remember discussing it with you awhile back espcially how it made me appreciate the whole love story flick a lot more.

I agree with you that its his best film. Its a really mature well written flick with a bunch of the elements that made his other films so great... its the same way I feel about Tarantino's Jackie Brown.

Mr. Brooks ~ surprisingly enough, I liked it. Not really a Kevin Costner fan, but he didn't annoy me like he usually does (maybe because I wasn't supposed to "like" the psycho ;) ), he did a good job. And William Hurt was great. Could have easily been a bore, but it wasn't. A dark, interesting film.

i'm the same ..

but the polluting here was done on an epic scale .. i cant even remember the amout of raw sewage that gets dumped in the lakes every time there is a backup in the sewers


or all the pesticides and poisons that run off into the lakes ..


they mentioned there were something like 65 hot spots still in the lakes - where the toxic content is up to 50% in the silt at the bottom of these areas..

it showed a family of eagles - the babies didnt survive because they were fed mostly lamprey eel .. which are bottom feeders in one of the hot spots ..

they also said there were abouit 180 foriegn species of marine life that had been introduced to the great lakes .. some intentionally - but most not - as a result of being in the bilge water of the ocean going ships ..


most of these things change the environments they invade - and not for the better.

The Incredible Melting Man

[joshaube]

The Hottie and the Nottie:
This was a decent watch. It was just mindless fun. It wouldn't have been shit on nearly as much if it did not star Paris Hilton. My fuck, she can't even act at a basic level. HOW DOES SHE GET ROLES? Oh wait, I know...

Teeth:
Not as perfect as I had hoped it to be, but it was quite good. I would have preferred an all out cheese-fest but it stayed pretty tame. My favourite scene being the Doctor's Office scene. A sense of dread, and a tone of hilarity. Just so much fun.

The Cottage:
I CANNOT SAY THIS ENOUGH. If you are a big fan of Shaun of the Dead, you have to see this... asap! It's a UK-based horror/comedy. The set-up takes a while, but once you get past it... wow. It's so funny! I don't usually find myself laughing this hard when corpses are being brutally hacked into bits. But I did. It's quite gory, too.

Inside:
See it. Now. One of the goriest films I've ever seen. And some really genuinely creepy moments. "You're husband's not asleep, Sarah. He's dead." BRRR.

Diary of the Dead:
Didn't do it for me. HATED the camera guy, totally unlikable. The characters all had REALLY scripted lines, and would turn to the camera in a prolific pose... and act all high-and-mighty. Famous quotes left right and center, and so on. THAT totally ruined the "realistic" camera style. There were times when I thought the switching between cameras ruined it, as well. It didn't feel like it was handheld enough, y'know? AND WHY DID ROMERO USE CGI BLOOD? D: But it had a good message behind it. Not as deserving as the hype it's getting, IMO.

[REC]:
Amazing. One of the best "realistic" handheld camera movies. It FELT like it was real. The actors did an amazing job. And this movie genuinely creeped me out like no movie has in a LONG time.

Them (Ils)

Thanks for the suggestion CG, very suspenseful and very well done. I'll probably watch this one again when Strangers comes out, seems like a fitting double feature. Pretty intense ending too, although the last minute or two seemed unnecessary.

HAIRSPRAY (the musical)

Not as good as John Water's original, but fun and campy and it still retains a slightly trashy edge to it. The music is better than most musicals I've seen recently. John Travolta is creepy and wierd in drag, but I love his Baltimore accent - he over did it a bit, but got the spirit of it down pat. James Masden continues to surprise me... he has mad fucking skills.

If you don't like musicals, it won't convert you. But it's a hell of a lot more fun and entertaining than DREAMGIRLS and the music is beter the SWEENEY TODD.

Iron-Man.
While I don't consider this "one of th best action films ever" like some people seem to have, I think it was pretty solid, and among Marvels best.
The origin story was pretty much right on the mark, and I think RDJ played a pretty good Stark.
A good point someone made is that it was reminiscent of transformers in parts - but you could actually tell who was attacking who.
A solid movie, funny, and a good introduction to the universe/character.

Alright, I tried, I thought maybe this could be ok and even hung in after one of the zombies jumped through the air like Spiderman. At 28 minutes though, after seeing a zombie jump up and crawl on the ceiling for NO REASON I turned it off. Bad acting, bad effects, and simply put... a bad movie. Also, those fast zombies, they ran like gomers and all I could think of was the laugh from the commercial with the buck toothed shark.

[ManchestrMorgue]

Mardi Gras Massacre

One of the original "video nasties" which I believe remains banned in Britain to this day.

Not that there is really anything that should keep it banned - I think the most likely thing is that no-one has bothered to submit it for reclassification.

It is low budget and poorly acted. However it is not without its charm. I actually found myself enjoying it.

The murders are all the same. Exactly the same, in fact. This is not a movie big on variety.

However it does have a low budget grindhouse charm that kept my interest. This is one of those films that I found "so bad it's good".

Diary of the Dead--, nice effects..not as scary as [REC], bogged down by unlikable characters

Definatley not as scary but I felt it was just a deeper film in its satire and the unlikable characters added to the satire. That dude could've put down his camera a bunch of times to help his friends but didn't... shit like that. I thought it really showed the selfishness of our plugged in society.

not a movie - but we just got back from the play version of My Fair Lady ..

amazingly enough (for anyone who knows anything about it) Marnie Nixon - the woman who did the actual singing for Audrey Hepburn in the movie version - as well as Deberah Kerr's singing in The King and I ... played the mother of Henry Higgins (a non singing role)

the play was pretty good .. could have been better - but the sets were outstanding .. and if you squinted - you would swear Rex Harrison was up on the stage..

Michael Clayton: Excellent. great performances, great ending.

The Painted Veil: Naomi Watts and Edward Norton, Again, great acting, good movie.

Happily Ne'er after: Sigh.... It had Andy Dick in the cast, do i really need to elaborate?


I will anyway. I had never heard anythign good about it, but figured it might be at least so-so...

Man, Pixar set the bar way to high when they introduced cgi only movies. this thing SUCKED. Sigourney weaver sounded like she just showed up and belted out her lines, Sarah Micjelle Gellar and Freddy Prinze Jr have all the voice charisma of a toad that has been run over by a car, and Andy Dick is, well, Andy Dick. hearin ghim is jarring and pulls you out of whatever fantasy they might have created on the screen.


On the other hand, it reminded me of the ass-whupping john lovitts put on him last year, and that brought a smile to my face :)

Broken English- I was expecting to hate this movie and found myself pulled into Nora's world completely and felt every nervous bravado and small breakdown and didn't want to leave when she finally ended up in Paris with a great love or at the very least an interesting love.
This film slowly moves the soul without pulling the emotional blackmail strings most indie dramas like to shove at us.

THE DIVING BELL AND THE BUTTERFLY

Poetic, lyrical, brilliant. The camera is fluid, the acting is honest and the story is seemless. I liked the book, I LOVE the film. Schnabel's best film work to date...and I am now expecting briliiance from him every time out. Add Emannuelle Siegner's greatness in both her acting and her song on the soundtrack (and the fact that she's the lead in GIALLO) and it's damn near perfect.

And when they sew his eyelid shut... harrowing!!!!

I just with The Girl Next door had more meat, it stayed in the same place story wise for so long that it didn't really work for me. It was vicious though, and even though I didn't love it I wouldn't feel bad suggesting it to people looking for a film like that.

I thought I am Legend was an alright film as far as action films go. But story can be so much more - and that is evident by some of the earlier adaptations.

The action was "big" and "spectacular" but the film, the characters didn't have the same depth and charm as in, say, The Omega Man.

So yeah, as a SFX spectacular it was ok, as a story it was pretty forgettable.

I thought the creatures looked awful. It was okay when you only caught glimpses of them.....but once you started seeing a lot of them, it took away from the film, in my opinion.
But I admit, I might have been more forgiving of that fact had I not went into the film REALLY wanting to see the book done justice. It COULD have been great, and like I said, it started out promisingly enough. But the last few minutes were just....bad.
