Caught a couple flicks recently...

The Hulk- 7/10

This isn't my type of film and I wasn't expecting much. The plot was more involved than I expected and I liked all the cameos. I've talked with a few people, including my son-in-law who hated the heavy use of CGI stuff. I don't know- it's based on a cartoon, what do you want? Stunts and guys in big costumes stomping around on miniature sets? The Mexican audience I saw the movie with obviously loved it. Over all better then I expected, hoping they do a Hulk Iron Man follow up.

Also caught...

No Country for Old Men 7/10

This is a movie I couldn't wait to see and must say I was a little let down. It was good, very good. My problem is whenever I end up seeing a movie after being told how prefect it is, it's near impossible for it to ever live up to my expectations. I'll probably end up buying or renting this again. My guess is I'll enjoy it more the second time around.

The Outlaw Jose Wales 10/10

Simply one of my all time favorite movies. The rain canceled my Sat. reception one evening and I watched a couple in my collection. "Dying ain't much of a living boy" and "Don't piss down the back of my neck and try to tell me it's raining"- classic.

Finally...

Full Metal Jacket 10/10

Another of my all time fav's. R. Lee Ermey plays the DI to such perfection I can't watch it and not be transported back to boot. "What have we got here, a fucking comedian? Private, Joker! I admire your honesty. Hell, I like you, you can come over to my house and fuck my sister!" Moments later- "You little scumbag! I got your name, I got your ass! You will not laugh, you will not cry, you will learn by the numbers, I will teach you! Now get up! Get on your feet! You had best unfuck yourself or I will unscrew your head and shit down your neck!"

Good times, good times.
