Juno (2007)
Heartfelt, mostly genuine, and very funny. It's deserved most of the hype it's gotten, and Ellen Page and Michael Cerra do a fantastic job. Entertaining? Yep. Best Picture worthy? Hell no.

Atonement (2007)
This is the second time I've seen this, and I believe now more than ever that it's slightly better than 'No Country'. It's such an intensely involving story, and feels so much like something belonging to a much higher level of cinema. And the fact that Joe Wright didn't get nominated for Best Director (take a look at that six-minute, $15 million dolly shot) and Knightley and McAvoy were jipped is a damn shame.

Rambo (2008)
It really was not very good, aside from the last twenty minutes or so. It was bloody, violent, and gritty, but most of that comes from Burma soldiers to women and children, and that isn't what I payed to see. The climax was done in true Rambo form, but everything else was sorely lacking.

Too bad you didnt like it, Kev.

The docu-drama beginning was essential to give a little background on the current situation in Burma...and the first 30-odd minutes was a bit slow (by Rambo-ian standards), but overall I thought it was a great movie experience. Stallone as a filmmaker has evolved very nicely, coming off Rocky Balboa and now Rambo.

Alien vs Predator : Requiem.

Anderson's earlier disappointing video-game meeting of two of the most scariest franchises in cinema has evolved...and how! Requiem is all that AvP wasn't. It's intense, gritty, fast, relentless...and scary.

It picks off from where the first one left, and makes for surprisingly gripping viewing. The characterisation is not much to write about...since an AvP movie is all about body-count...so we have plenty of innovative fights and deaths, and the ultimate showdown. The Predalien is impressive, and the dark, brooding atmosphere of the entire movie is a big plus to the overall effect it leaves on the viewer. The Strause brothers have done plenty of justice to both franchises, which is notable...since that is where Paul W Anderson had failed.

Watch it at least once. You wont be disappointed.

It's not amazing, but it's literally NOTHING ( I mean... there's a ONE SECOND mention of the first film, and the film involves a "boogeyman"... but so does 39502585825 other films.) like that shitfest that came out in 2005.
Agree.
Quite surprisingly it's entertaining. Actually I didn't expect this much from this sequel after the dreadful 1st part. A good time passing flick for a horror fan.

anyway, last seen...
Solstice (2007)


...lack of scary moments, no gore and overall, I think they did very rough & little work with the plot to just make a horror film asap.
>>: C-


Timber Falls (2007)

Though the story was funny & common but I felt good for this movie after watching Solstice.

>>: B-


The Zombie Diaries (2007)


Pretty good effort (& I'm surprised to see poor imdb ratings for this movie).

>>: B
