Farin Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 The Simpsons are watching an Itchy & Scratchy movie at the cinema Homer: Boring! Lisa: Dad, we can't see the movie! Homer: I can't believe we're paying to see something we get on T.V. for free. If you ask me, everybody in this theater is a giant sucker, (Homer turns to face the audience, and points straight forward, as if referring to the viewer) especially YOU! 9.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 "300" 9.8/10 Just picked this up on DVD. Very interesting plot twists & pleanty of barbaric war scenes with lots of gore and completely action packed. Wouldn't recommend to anyone with a weak stomach, but will worth the viewing.

Rayzor Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 "Fletch" No movie can measure up to the classics! Chevy Chase is simply hilarious and every time I watch this movie I laugh till I bust a gut... 9/10! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 That's a freakin' lie . Chevy Chase is mostly as ' dull as... ' in watching most of his old movies now , other than those Lampoon ones ... ?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Chase could use another Fletch script. Soon. PS: I just saw the movie, "The Number 23". What garbage! Having trouble getting to sleep? Then this is the movie for you. I challenge you to stay awake for, oh let's see....23 minutes? Carrey could use a Fletch script, too.

Kevin Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 " Becket" - Peter O'Toole/ Richard Burton Need I say more ? This has been beutifully restored and looks like a new movie -putting the 'finest ' actors of our present time to shame - as far as historical recreations go . If you don't like this - I will pay your rental fee ! Guaranteed ! 10/10 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mukmuk Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Premonition on dvd--mostly Sandra Bullock. Thought it was a good movie, rate it as suspense instead of scary. Played it while also browsing on internet, so can be viewed at couple levels of seriousness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 I watched Wild Hogs last night. While somewhat predictable, I have to say it was one of the funnier movies I've seen in a good while. John Travolta, Tim Allen, William Macy, and Martin Lawrence play well off each other. It's definately worth the time spent. 9/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 A Night at The Museum....cute movie. It didn't make me laugh out loud, but it was fun. 7/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musiclvr Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Wild Hogs, funny movie. John Travolta lookin' good and it was just a fun movie to watch. I laughed a lot and there was a little hokiness to the story but that was ok. 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Vivante Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Tamano Natural, dir. Luis G. Berlanga. The latest movie I bought and it turned out to be better than I expected. Very strange, but good for repeat viewings. It has a score by Maurice Jarre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Tamano Natural, dir. Luis G. Berlanga. The latest movie I bought and it turned out to be better than I expected. Very strange, but good for repeat viewings. It has a score by Maurice Jarre That´s an amazing film... It was called "Grandeur Nature", for some reason (censorship) Berlanga shooted it in France and it was very beautiful, and sad, and touching, and funny... I loved Michel Piccoli and his love story... I saw that film in the early seventies and I´d love to watch it again. I was a very close friend of one of his sons (the director´s) and he told how Piccoli and his then wife, Juliette Gréco, used to go to their house quite often in Spain. This has nothing to do with the movie but it will always remind me of my late friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Vivante Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Yeah, I thought it was weird that it was shot in France, but it's a full-on Spanish movie. At first, I thought the movie was funny and eccentric, but the more I think about it and after a couple of more viewings it's kind of sad... in an angsty kind of way. The movie plays back in my mind and most of what I can remember are the scenes towards the end. I'm surprised this movie didn't get a wider release in North America (if it did at all). Most people who have seen it, remember it - even if it was one time decades ago. That's the power of good filmmaking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ombre Vivante Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Hey, here's your chance PS - It woulda been awersome to meet the director. Movies such as this one were way ahead of their time. The other I can recall is Maitresse with Gerard Depardieu. That one was from the same director who did the Idi Amin Dada docu. I think his last name is "Barbet." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hustle and Flow. I'd heard this was a good movie. At first, I thought I'd made a mistake, that it was just another bad rap movie. Wrong. It's got a message and makes a real statement, which you realize the further into it you get. Pretty darn good... 8.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Laurie_ Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 (edited) Just got done watching Superman Returns...I've only seen the very first Superman movie, I haven't seen any of the others..not even sure how many there are...but anyways...I watched this tonight because I was completely bored on a Saturday night...It was an okay movie, very predictable. I liked Kevin Spacey as Lex Luther, but that's about all I liked about the movie.... I give it 6/10 I guess... Now I'm watching Shattered on TNT...just started about half hour ago...so not sure if this is gonna be any good either.... ^ I ended up changing the station, and watched SNL instead, much more entertaining...

Barbet Schroeder is a French director, he made also the Pink Floyd soundtracks movies ("More", "La Vallée-Obscured by Clouds") and also "Reverse of Fortune" and some others I can´t recall now...

Ombre Vivante Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Damn. He's gooood. Kinda reminds me of Alan Parker. They do those weird sleeper kinds of films, which are ten times better than anything made in their time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otokichi Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Crash! Boom! Bang! HEEYA! Slice! Thud! Biff! Pow! MSO decided to end the Summer of 2007 with two exclamation points. Two weekends of action-adventure movies is enough of a change from "easy movies" "The Bourne Ultimatum" (9/10) Running from the biggest traffic tie up Moscow has ever seen, Jason Bourne's flaky memory kicks in at an awkward moment. Then it's off to Paris, Morocco, and NYC to return to the beginning. The "assets" prove to be tougher than usual, and a humble fax machine has a pivotal role. The mano a mano death match in Morocco went by faster than I could see, while the East River sojourn went on for quite a while. "Rush Hour 3" (7/10) Uh-oh, the incredibly dynamic duo are at it again, leaving a trail of wrecked cars, smashed furniture, and break off pieces of the Eiffel tower to boot. Just what Chinese Tongs have to do with Paris stretches disbelief beyond the elasticity of a large French flag. However, there's enough action to cover most of the plot holes, and briefly introduce a murderous female assassin seeking to perforate Jackie Chan's character. Edwin Starr must be scratching his head over the final scene, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Fracture starring Sir Anthony Hopkins was great! Full of the sinister mind-manipulation that he does so well. 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
