You'd find it boring, I'd bet.

I love it... but I really can't see it being your kind of movie.

oh, it's so much fun.
you can buy it quite cheaply as well:

edit: to elaborate on what return said above, it's definitely not constant rock 'em, sock 'em car chase action. if that's what you're wanting you might be disappointed, but it's still a fun film.

Onibaba (1964)

Christ, this is fantastic filmmaking. If not already seen, I highly recommend this to Rod, V, fortunato, neverending, Return, and anybody else in the mood for simplisitic folk storytelling with some genuinely frightening, stark imagery and a blisteringly chilling climax.

I'm sitting here and realizing that the film absolutely haunted the hell out of me! It's really lingering.

I've got to add the Criterion release to my to-buy list.

Fantastic is right. A very chilling storyline dotted with jealousy and fear, genuinely frightful and dense moments involving *POSSIBLE SPOILER* the mother and her mask, and a killer climactic ending.

Absolutely fabulous movie. One of the early horror movies which covers all seven golden sins.

fairly predictable - but still entertaining

Jennifer Aniston vehicle, a thriller with a decent amount of twisting and turning. I liked it, didn't love it but it's worth a watch if you're a fan of the genre. If I'm thinking of the same film.



Timber Falls

Some people really seem to love this move but I didn't find it all that incredible. It's a competent slasher but with nothing you haven't seen before. Worth a watch, I wouldn't buy it.

.

yep, and Clive Owen..

starts on a train - but the title refers more to the guy veering off course.

i never watched friends but i have to say that Jennifer Aniston is one of the rare actresses that had the chops to transition well from tv to the big screen.

she's mesmerising.

The Forbidden Kingdom - 8/10 Story was kind of kiddish - Kid gets sucked into an alternate dimension to fulfill some profecy, while becoming stronger along the way, while defeating an evil overlord. So the plot is kinda overused. Jet Li and Jackie Chan made some great fight scenes, and I got to see one of my favorite fighting styles used by jackie chan again, The Drunken Fist. The movie reminds me alot of this one kiddish movie with like kungfu kangaroos or something(they weren't kangaroos, just looked like it), I can't remember what it was called. Not the best, worth a rent, maybe a buy if you're into Jackie Chan or Jet Li movies.

Horror Express (1973)

So once upon a time Crabs told me this was a fun flick, and, having a lot of stock in the fella's opinion, I ordered it. It's been sitting on my shelf waiting for the perfect night. Tonight was the night!

This was a great, romping, railroad-ride of a horror movie with plenty of trans-siberian terror and one hell of a fun cast! I'm very glad I made the trip; a sincere thank you to Crabapple for the recommendation!

Evan Almighty: pretty funny. I liked it, not awesome, but worth watching.
The Invisible: Felt like a long, montonous music video. Ok acting, not terribly original plot, confusing attempt at symbolism at the end. not very good. not bad, but not that great

I was expecting something TOTALLY different ...so I was disappointed.
I guess if I wouldn't have had any expectations I would have enjoyed it a bit more.
