I Robot, very entertaining sci fi action 4/5

Casino (on History TV last night) - I forgot what a great movie this was. 7/10

Supersize Me

9/10 (as far as documentaries go)

I've heard loads and loads of hype about this movie and tried to see it without any bias. It lived up to the expectations though. I really liked how convincing and different each of the doctors were. It's nice that he treated it like a true science experiment with tests before, during, and after, while handling all of the variables and such.

eternal sunshine....

4/10. aweful movie. difficult to even sit through the whole thing.

The Grudge

7/10

Has a few 'jumpy' moments, but most are predictable. Enjoyable anyhow.

I for one loved the movie. I think it'd be nice to say a little more about why you personally didn't like it so other people don't see your review and decide not to see the film for ambiguous reasons. :thumbsup:

I also loved eternal sunshine. Thought the story was definetly there, the acting was great. Probably in my top 3 movies of the year. I am also curious as to what you didn't like?

ok im sorry. I dont know what it was to be honest. it was too long, and WAY too slow. nothing to keep you interested. I think the acting was great, but that only goes so far, the story and the idea was pretty dull IMO. By the end you just wanted it to be over.

Hero- 7/10 good plot and cool effects... but a little over stylized.

Collateral - 8 / 10

good suspense movie, Tom plays a good bad guy.

Super Size Me - 8/10

I'll never let a chesseburger rot in my stomach again.

Ocean's 12: 6.5/10

Meh. Ocean's 11 was soooo much better. Lots of pretty people in this movie which was great to see, Yay brad pitt and matt damon. The "laser dance" was probably the highlight....watch it in the 2nd run theater if you want, or rent it.

Dirty Pretty Things
8/10
Surprisingly good!!...not what i expected ...but FANTASTIC performances by the two main characters (one of them is the girl who played Amelie)....portrays immigrant/alien life in the big city, the fears, the struggles, how people prey on them, and how they have their own community ...in between it all is a very disturbing murder so you have a drama/thriller on your hands.

Waterworld = 8/10

I like it a lot despite all the negative review for it. Could have been done better but hey it's good for what it is.

I agree with you. I was expecting a really good movie similarly as Ocean's 11. But was really dissapointed.

Meet the Fockers: 7.5/10




Wasn't the best comedy I've ever seen, but not nearly as bad as some critics have made it out to be. Had some great jokes and gags throughout, and was great for a good number of good laughs. Ben Stiller is always the same character (with varying degrees of awkwardness/weirdness), but I always love him. I'd see it again if someone asked me to come along with them to see it, but otherwise would wait until it's out on DVD to give it a second viewing.

7.5!!?!! for Meet the Fockers!? F that! Way funnier than the first one by far. And his parents were hilarious. Any and all Ben Stiller fans must see this movie. I personally feel that some of his roles are crap but there is something about this cast lineup that has it. Saw it christmas day and everyone in the theatre clapped as the credits began. That deserves, at the least, an 8.5.

i'd say 8.5 for fockers. by far, funnier than meet the parents.

2 for 1 sale today,

Team America World Police: Saw it first in theaters and loved it 5/5. Then bought a cheap pirated version in Russia. FYI this movie is much better in english, much better.

Brat 2: This is actually a Russian movie but it's set in Moscow and Chicago. Saw it on DVD. Anyway the hero is a sort of Russian McGuiver, an ex-army guy who is super coo' and super bad. Hot damn I'm hip. Good flick, some neat camera stuff and good violence. Long as shit though, like three hours. Anyway I don't know if it's available in the states, I imagine somewhere - if yo don't know Russian though make sure to get ti with subtitle. 4/5

50 First Dates - 7.5/10 - Romantic comedy meets Adam Sandler. His movies, while decent, seem like the same thing over and over again. Hasn't gotten too old yet, but Rob Schneider (sp) needs to do something than making a career of being a co-star in a Sandler movie.

I agree with you, this was a very good movie. I got to see one of those director's screenings of this over a year ago, and thought it was very good.

Let's see, my last movies watched............

Rules of Engagement ........... 2/5
Secret Window .................. 3/5
Lemony Snickets, etc, etc ........ 4/5

There you go. In order, no need to see, probably should see, and definitely need to see.

club dredd --- typical slasher/comedy movie to me. a bunch of unexplained survival of wounds, a small amount of nudity, should have been more. 2/5

Shaun of the Dead: Bought it on DVD the other day and I still love its charm and funniness. 9.5 out of 10.(Why else would I buy it?) :p

The Manchurian Candidate (2004)

4 out of 10

I haven't seen the original so my rating is based solely on this version. It just seemed very lacking to me. No real surpises or suspense, and you pretty much knew where it was going from the beginning. Deanzel and Liev Schreiber are both decent actors, but the writing and the pacing just was very stale.

Ocean's Twelve - A pretty good followup to Ocean's Eleven. Good heist movie, though mildly convoluted and a tad too long. 8/10

I'd give the Fockers a 9/10. I would have laughed harder if I didn't have a sore throat LOL
Something about DiNero in comedy roles that's just great. Hoffman and Streisand were awsome too. Stiller can be too much in some of his movies but this one wasn't all about him this time. Both sets of parents were great in this one.

Eight hours back from Europe means I got to watch a few movies.

Collateral: 7/10. Solid.
I, Robot: 5/10. I thought it was going to even worse than that, but it shaped up in the last 45 minutes, so it gets a pass.
Around the World in 80 Days: 3/10, and that only for some decent fight scenes. I was hard up when I watched that one.

King Arthur, went easily straight to the crappiest movies I have ever seen. The continuous battling, uninteresting characters and incoherent plot nearly finished me off. Not to mention that Keira Knightley (who is a fine looking lass) was totally unconvincing with that bow. Luckily, I wasn't really expecting much.

2 / 10.

(I haven't still found a true 1 / 10 movie, though)

Garden State - Written, directed, and starred in by Zach Braff from Scrubs. Not bad, kind of the dead to the world and then I wake up love story. The actor who played Bilbo in LOTR was in it, and everytime I saw him, I thought to myslef "BILBO!". Overall, I'd say 8/10

I finally caught up with 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind' last night on DVD and it was every bit as good (and better) as I'd heard. What a truly great film.

9/10 from me.

alright, my last two.........

Garfield....no joke. I have Netflix so a lot of times I'm watching the things I'd never pay to see in the theater. This one was pretty darn bad. I thought with Bill Murray doing the voice that it might be pretty decent. I really got it for sentimental reasons since I loved Garfield as a kid. I'd say 1/5

Stepford Wives.... Um, I'd have to say that I was pretty entertained. Nothing deep, or terribly well writen but it moves along well, is an interesting premise, and is entertaining............. 3/5

Last movie I watched was "Clue" with Tim Curry. I'll give it a 4/5. :)

Saw "Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy," and while it didn't knock me out of the park, I couldn't stop laughing at a couple of scenes. When Brick says: "where did you get your suits...the toilet?...store!?..." I nearly died. Also, the jazz flute scene made liquid come out of my nose.

7.5/10

'Meet The Fockers' today...the highlight for me was Dustin and Barb - they hammed up their roles perfectly. The De Niro character just got a little staid and uninteresing for me, and the laughs were still there, but not as forthcoming as I would have liked.

6.5/10

Garden State. One of my new favorite movies. I liked everything about it. 9.5/10.

Troy.
Not much to say really
Some good fight scenes, and good effects
Brad Pitt's acting was pretty bad. The rest of the cast was not too shabby.
Paased about 120 minutes, but i think I'd like them back.

6/10

In the last two days I watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind, which I loved and would give 8/10 which is very high if you knew my rating system.

Secondly I watched Napoleon Dynamite last night and laughed my ass off. If you haven't seen this movie, I strongly suggest you go pick it up! Absolutely hilarious, but still 8.5/10. Nobody's perfect.

I saw The Life Aquatic last weekend...fabulous! I liked it better than Rushmore and the Royal Tenenbaums, but there's no accounting for tastes.

I give it a 8/10 -- Would see it again in a theatre (maybe even at full-price).

My girlfriend bought me Troy today and I decided to actually watch a DVD I bought. Suffice to say I thought it was an excellent movie. The plot was not historically accurate, but if you thought it was going to be then you need to have you head checked. The acting was good and Brad Pitt was able to pull off the cocky fighter very well. I thought the action seens were well done and the individual fights were well choreographed. Overrall it is an exciting movie and I would recommend it to anyone.

'Garden State' today. What a brilliant job that guy did of writing, directing and acting. I've never noticed his lips before....they are quite luscious!

Excellent flick....8/10.

veronika voss

a very cool fassbinder film shot in lovely lovely black and white. curious music and/or sound.
a couple nights ago, we saw diary of a country priest, about which the same things could be said, substituting brassens.
