Dustin Hoffman, Harry Dean Stanton, Gary Busey, Theresa Russell, M Emmet Walsh and a then-unknown Kathy Bates show us the addictive nature of criminality. Really cool 70s cinema that just isn't made anymore.



Hoffman, Stanton & Russell were there and participated in a panel discussion. I was just a few feet from Dustin Hoffman AND Harry Dean Stanton!!!!!!!!

Dustin is, in my opinion, the greatest modern actor, period. That's very cool! (He's even shorter than you think, huh?)

I was lucky enough to chance a meeting with him last year, and it was exhilerating.

1408 (2007)

Brilliant. Simple chiller storytelling told with elegant style and perfect wit. IF you guys want creepy, don't miss this one.

Not AMAZING, but above average zombie movie. Quite entertaining.

I don't know how Zwoti felt about it, but i found it impressive as hell. The work of a filmmaker at the top of his game. I never read the book, but the movie is very strong. It was my second favorite of last year (right behind Pan's Labyrinth) and I find something new and interesting every time I watch it.

9.5/10

I second that. I think it's fucking brilliant. Maybe even perfect.

The Cameraman (1928)

Still stands hands down as one of the greatest comedies of all time. Sheer magnificent physical comedy ala mister Buster Keaton, and terrifically shot. This would be a necessity on the "100 Greatest Movies of All Time as Compiled by Alky" list. Vital, absorbing, perfect filmmaking.

Evan Almighty. 05/10


Less than decent sequel to Bruce Almighty. Steve Carrell tries his best to outdo Jim Carrey of the original but sucks. Morgan Freeman returns and is bland as ever. The direction seemed pretty ok for the first 30-odd minutes then it went downhill. Some gags were so corny they werent even in the same league as the word "funny".

Seems like Al Gore's Inconvenient Truth was rolled into half the movie, and most of the comedy and CGI effects revolve around that.

Overall, watch it ONLY if you have NOTHING else to do, otherwise skip it. You wont be missing much. I m surprised how this one became #1 of the weekend box-office, over the much powerful and better entertaining 1408.

Children of Men was very good, but I thought Pan's Labrynth sucked some major testicular juice.



The Return

I should have known going into it that this would suck. Sarah Michelle Gellar + PG-13 horror = recipe for crappy movie. But ignoring my better judgement, I rented it anyways. Blech! Boring film, no gore, confusing plot. Nothing exciting and no real payoff at the end. I thought it sucked! Save your cash!

American Pie: The Naked Mile

They really need to stop this franchise in it's tracks. Stick a fork in it, it's done. This movie was not so much a movie as it was a bunch of fart/weiner jokes mixed in between gratuitous boobies and random Eugene Levy encounters. There's no reason that any of us care about Stifler's extended family because they are about a thousand times less entertaining and interesting than The Stiffmeister was in the first film.

It wasn't funny. The acting was mediocre at best. The story and script were utterly terrible. By all rights, this film deserves an F, but they did cram as many boobies as they could into 90 minutes and for that, I'll cut them a little bit of slack.

D-




Creepshow 3

This was fun. It's like watching 5 episodes of Tales From the Crypt that all interweave each other and then tie loosely together at the end. Good gore, some cheesy acting, some of the short stories were better than other but overall, this was an enjoyably cheesy film. I liked it more than Creepshow 2, but less than the original.

B-




Suicide Kings

In a word... Badass. I love this movie. A twisted, dark script superbly cast and acted. Christopher Walken, Denis Leary, Jay Mohr & Jeremy Sisto (and one of the boyfriend's from Roseanne as the hilarious Ira.) I don't want to spoil anything for anyone that hasn't seen it, so just trust me when I say that if you are a fan of films like Made or Very Bad Things, you will LOVE this. It's great.

Not bad, but far from Keaton's best. The final act is hysterical, though.

I agree, it's a good flick.

I don't know if Master's of Horror counts at movies. If so I watched Dario Argento's "Jenifer" from season 1 a few nights ago. Really liked this one, good amount of gore which was what I was looking for at the time. If that's not a movie I watched the old Black Christmas which I love.
