The Last Samurai was the last new movie I saw (Saturday) and I was extremely surprised and impressed. Excellent movie, I highly recommend it.

9.5/10

Casus Belli · 06-29-2004, 05:26 AM

I saw Shallow Grave (1994) again last evening, and it gets 8 out of ten for me.... Brilliant thriller made on an absolute minimal budget, great story, great cast and last but not least... a good, (and a bit dark) sense of humor. Too bad it has got a few plotholes.

Chingal0 · 06-30-2004, 02:06 AM

Bad-er Santa - 3/5

Requiem for a Dream - 4/5

-Ever- · 07-12-2004, 01:02 PM

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (remake) 7/10

Terrible plot, tons of "now why the hell would they open THAT door" type stuff. Knew when the jumpy moments were going to come.

Only reason it got a decent score is cause of it's decent effects/cinematography.

pinkie · 07-12-2004, 05:49 PM

Bad Santa 3.5/5

It was really really funny. I liked it. I loved the fat kid. It was crass and poignant at the same time. Rare. Good movie over all.

Stoneygirl76 · 07-12-2004, 08:49 PM

The Butterfly Effect 8/10

trickyy · 07-12-2004, 09:34 PM

city of god

best movie i've seen in several years
cool story and cinematography

5/5

Casus Belli · 07-13-2004, 02:26 AM

Big Fish. 9/10. What a sweet film.

cartmen34 · 07-13-2004, 07:38 AM

King Arthur

8/10 Good movie. Very entertaining, but I never really got to know the characters. A bit more background would have been nice.

Master_Shake · 07-13-2004, 12:42 PM

King Arthur: WTF was up with the lame-o editing? The action scenes looked terrible. I don't much care for what seems to be the current standard of action editing. When they chop things up so much I get the feeling they're trying to hide something: like how bad the action really is, or how dissimilar the stunt doubles are to the regular actors. That said, it was good to see Horatio Hornblower get some more work.

Kalnaur · 07-13-2004, 08:21 PM

9.8 of 10

Spider-Man 2: Need I say more?

This movie kicked ass.

cameroncrazy822 · 07-14-2004, 06:49 AM

Joe Somebody...
2 out of 5... very predictable yet still mildly entertaining.

roachboy · 07-14-2004, 06:50 AM

farenheit 911.
i dont know about this film. there were elements i thought worked really well (the opening--using the sound of 911 rather than the image--we have become desensitized to the images, but not to the sound, it seems) and the general politics were good (i opposed the war in iraq)
but i am not a fan of moore in general---and then other things that i did not really like or understand, like the function of the huge segment about the saudis and the bush family---what was the actual argument moore was making? that arabs are evil? ---and the sentimentality of the sequences focussed on the mother from flint whose son was killed in iraq....

the orwell quote at the very end was great, however.

"the fog of war"---interesting interview with robert macnamara, interesting psychological document--bad film--goofy editing, goofy segue choices--terrible phillp glass music. just terrible.

-=shikamaru=- · 07-14-2004, 09:34 PM

Butterfly Effect: 3/5

roachboy · 07-15-2004, 05:59 AM

tin drum---a curious, complicated film. i think i need to watch it again.

bundy · 07-15-2004, 06:03 AM

thanks to Nancy's reccommendation, i tracked down the Kitano version of Zatoichi...

bloody fantastic.

5/5...

Keedo · 07-15-2004, 02:42 PM

Last movie I saw was King Arthur,

7/10 Not bad, could have used about more of a story. Battle scenes where a bit choppy.

bundy · 07-15-2004, 08:19 PM

ok, so i just saw HERO...

brilliant. cinematography was mind blowing. action was spectacular. actors, all of them, were fantastic (esp Maggie Cheung).

i love this film.

5/5

DSmith67 · 07-16-2004, 10:08 AM

King Arthur

I was a big King Arthur/Lancelot/Camelot fan as a kid. While others were playing Cowboys and Indians... I was the great Knight Lancelot killing dragons and rescuing damsels in distress. Needless to say, I was looking forward to seeing this movie. Due to my high expectations I was let down by the movie's storyline. While the movie is decent, it is just missing some things to make it a great movie. The plot is too predictable, but then of course it is hard to make a plot twist in a "historical" movie... unless you are Michael Moore - then you can alter facts at will.
I give this movie 3/5 stars.

War316 · 07-16-2004, 03:28 PM

The last movie i actually watched was pulp fiction again for the hell of it. I had just gotten back from Germany on a business trip and a friend of mine asked me in the middle of it if it was really true about the "royal with cheese" and for all of you that don't know yes it is indeed a royal with cheese but i can't tell you how to spell cheese in german so i'll get back on that one.

Anyway 4 out of 5 loosing one point for the basement scene which i still find highly disturbing to this day. lol

sailor · 07-16-2004, 05:13 PM

City of God. Excellent, excellent movie. Go watch it. 9/10.

Ace_O_Spades · 07-17-2004, 12:31 AM

Farenheit 9/11

ummm I have yet to look into it to find out how much is total caca... so I'm going to suspend judgement

first impression though..... 3.5/5

There was some stuff that they just threw in there.

However

Spoiler: "We don't need no water let the mother fucker burn..... burn motherfucker... burn"

^Classic

Ella · 07-17-2004, 02:19 AM

'Along Came Polly'.....romantic comedy with Ben Stiller and Jennifer Aniston. Overall a little contrived and unbelievable, but it had some funny scenes, and Ben Stiller is always good for a laugh.

Edit: forgot to rate it....6/10

Ace_O_Spades · 07-18-2004, 10:50 AM

Spiderman 2

It's been said before... "Best superhero movie ever"

simply stumendous 9.5/10

Same here. I give it the same rating.

braindamage351 · 07-18-2004, 10:19 PM

I briefly glimpsed at "Charlie's Angels, Full Throttle" for about 10 seconds. It was awful.

3/10.

wrestlerdiva · 07-19-2004, 07:47 PM

Saved- Funny and thought-provoking at the same time. the mostly young cast did an excellent job
9.5/10

amonkie · 07-19-2004, 10:58 PM

Cold Mountain

Movie seemed a little slow, and I ended up predicting how the movie would end about halfway into it. A little bit different angle on the Civil War stories, but depressing as hell. Especially if you watch the deleted scenes on the DVD.

7/10

cameroncrazy822 · 07-20-2004, 04:04 AM

I just saw Badder Santa (director's cut). I thought the premise was absolutely hilarious and BB thornton was perfect in the role. I just wish they would have fattened the plot a bit more with another more substantial storyline.
....2.5 out of 5 stars

Esoteric · 07-20-2004, 01:38 PM

I enjoyed your well thought out and absolutely appropriate non-esoteric review. I agree with you 100%. Very well done indeed, even with the the "Dances With Wolves" rip-off comparisons (media critics). EXCELLENT historically accurate period piece.

trickyy · 07-20-2004, 10:00 PM

super size me

2.5/5

it was interesting but i got fidgety at times.
somewhat predictable, slightly sensationalized

Ella · 07-24-2004, 06:07 AM

Office Space

Again.

I had forgotten how funny this film was, and did some serious laughing which I needed badly! Clever, funny, simple premise and spot on with the office politics stuff.

8/10.

Dwayne · 07-24-2004, 08:44 AM

My Cousin Vinnie

10/10

It was one of the best movies ever!

Esoteric · 07-24-2004, 02:20 PM

Seemed pretty short, and the acting wasn't that great. My opinion of course.

KellyC · 07-24-2004, 10:13 PM

Around the World in 80 Days

8/10

It was better than I expected. But Jacky Chan needs to retire.

matteo101 · 07-24-2004, 10:53 PM

Pulp Fiction- 9/10
Excelent movie..It was the first time I have seen it...i guess it was kind of confusing..but the filmmaking was excelent..everything in the movie was done, and there for a reason. Tarentino is a genius.

mew · 07-25-2004, 07:09 AM

Just bought Princess Bride dvd

10/10

a classic and has everything from giants to sword fighting...cant forget about the R.O.U.S's!

roachboy · 07-25-2004, 09:02 PM

blow up

an excellent film.
seriously, an excellent experience.

i watched it on dvd, which also had an amazingly stupid commentary version. no need to boather with it, unless you find yourself mystified by the film. and even then....

Chingal0 · 07-28-2004, 12:22 AM

Starsky and Hutch - 4/5
Shade - 4/5
Spartan - 4/5

I've watched them within 24 hours... so.

All excellent movies for what they are. The card tricks in Shade are fucking amazing.. and they have this little featurette in the special shit that elaborates more on it. For a first-time director, it was pretty well done.

Spartan, some movie with Val Kilmer about some chick that gets stolen etc. Good movie, excellent dialogue.

Starsky and Hutch, funny, funny shit. DO IT!
