Farin Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Posted May 11, 2008 it's certainly the best of the trilogy, and I doubt part IV comes close either
bluesboy Posted May 11, 2008 Report Posted May 11, 2008 Forgetting Sarah Marshall can be easily forgotten. Lot's of hype by the critics and it's not worth the ticket. 5/10
TheLizard Posted May 11, 2008 Report Posted May 11, 2008 it's certainly the best of the trilogy, and I doubt part IV comes close either It won't, but I still plan on seeing it on the 22nd, because I'm a ridiculously huge Indy fanboy.
Farin Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Posted May 11, 2008 yes, I didn't mean that the others (or this one) are bad movies, far from it - just that Raiders is the best of the lot btw, I read today that Marion, Karen Allen's character, will be returning in the new movie
The Seeker Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 I watched American Gangster earlier... 9/10. Apparently some people on imdb complained that the movie was too drawn out, but I didn't mind... though I agree that I would've expected a bit more action, especially with a title like that.
_Laurie_ Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 My daughter saw American Gangster, and said it was good...I'll have to check it out...
katie_sane Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 Made Of Honor What Happens In Vegas both very ordinary.
Ombre Vivante Posted May 12, 2008 Report Posted May 12, 2008 "Vertigo" is definitely one of the best but I think my favourite Hitchcock film is "North by Northwest"! I recently watched a special showing of "the lady vanishes" and it was very interesting as it is very different to all the later HItchcock I've seen. I haven't seen The Lady Vanishes, but I'm rarin' to get the Criterion dvd release of it One thing I found surprising is how good the original version of The Man Who Knew Too Much is. I like it much better than the latter version everyone is familiar with. I watched parts of Il Gattopardo. It is good, but it is EPIC at about 3.5 hours. I'll watch it in parts over three or four days.
CanAm Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I watched Cloverfield on the flight back from SFO. Big mistake. Rather than heighten suspense, the director's choice to show the action through the lense of a handheld camcorder was just annoying. The acting was dreadful and the story reminded me of the film Godzilla with Matthew Broderick. 3/10
Kevin Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 " The Score " - Robert DeNiro, Brando , Ed Norton : Entertaining and clever heist movie . Three generations of crooks ( and actors ) after a priceless scepter . Interesting contrasts in characters and acting styles that blend together nicely . Satisfying conclusion . 8/10
_Laurie_ Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 ^^^ I agree Kevy...I liked that movie alot also...great cast of actors too!
invisible_r Posted May 13, 2008 Report Posted May 13, 2008 I watched Cloverfield on the flight back from SFO. Big mistake. Rather than heighten suspense, the director's choice to show the action through the lense of a handheld camcorder was just annoying. The acting was dreadful and the story reminded me of the film Godzilla with Matthew Broderick. 3/10 I found it to be effective, maybe it's just me or maybe the fact that you watched it on a plane. However, I did not like the fact that you got to see the monster....
katie_sane Posted May 15, 2008 Report Posted May 15, 2008 Saw '21' tonight. Thought it was really good (big fan of Jim Sturgess) even though I understood none of the mathematics and black jack talk. Kevin Spacey was his usual fantastic self. Inspired by a true story and definitely worth seeing.
Ombre Vivante Posted May 17, 2008 Report Posted May 17, 2008 Just finished Tetsuo. One thought came to mind after watching this movie: it is unlike anything you have seen and heard before
Jenny Posted May 27, 2008 Report Posted May 27, 2008 Bee Movie 7/10 Cute kids movie....there was one part that really made me laugh. Otherwise, it was your average cutesy kids movie. Jerry Seinfeld is the voice of Benjamin, a bee who wants to do more than toil away at the honey factory for the rest of his life. Through some adventures, he comes to find out that even the smallest jobs can be very important.
Viaene Posted May 27, 2008 Report Posted May 27, 2008 The Blues Brothers This movie is so brilliant --> 9/10
Shawna Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 All hail Blues Brothers! I watched P.S. I Love You. What a waste. It was a tearjerker, and it was a bad one at that. blecchh.
miamisammy29 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 Over the weekend, I watched "There Will Be Blood". Funny thing....there was none....very little, anyway. Pretty cool movie, nonetheless. 8 out of 10.
TheLizard Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 I drink your milkshake! I think TWBB should have won best picture...
miamisammy29 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 I think TWBB should have won best picture... It was 100 times better than "Old Country Buffet Is For Old Men", or whatever it was called. I'm sorry, but that did NOT deserve the Oscar for best picture. I would have definitely given it to "There Will Be Blood", or maybe even "American Gangsta" - that one ruled, too.
TheLizard Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 "Old Country Buffet Is For Old Men" I would love to watch a movie where Tommy Lee Jones cuts in front of some geezer so he can grab some fried chicken, causing a violent chain of events.
miamisammy29 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Posted May 28, 2008 I'm glad you laughed at that one; it just kinda came out as I was typing that. But that WOULD be cool....Tommy Lee Jones and Sean Connery fighting over the last slab of strawberry cheesecake, with assistant manager David Caruso tying to break it up. Now, that's a f***in' movie!
Ken Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 I was overjoyed to find this available on DVD. I *totally forgot about the 1977 scary movie flick, The Car . 10/10
Shawna Posted May 29, 2008 Report Posted May 29, 2008 OMG Ken, I'm creeped out all over again! I couldn't watch a full 2 minutes of that because it's so creepy! :beady:
