What's the last movie you've seen?

[Fuzzybigfoot]

The Town

Absolutely fantastic.

I thought it was pretty good, but I liked The Departed a lot more.

All on Netflix

Angels and Demons followed by Stone of Destiny. Both great

Then I watched On The Road...and it sucked

I believe Angels and Demons was Sunday and the Stone of Destiny and On the Road were Sunday. And then last night was pratically a union negotiation prep

I watched the Richard Donner Director's Cut of Superman II on On-Demand.  Richard Donner was fired 3/4 the way through filming and was replaced by some cheese ball clown.   In this version, Donner uses the footage he shot and some test shots to create the movie as he originally wanted.

Blue Valentine - what an absolutely devastating film... great but a real gut punch.

[Eraserhead]

^ I want to see that. It isn't out in the States yet.

True Grit

Very funny. Seriously, there's a lot of good comedy. It wasn't necessarily as epic in terms of being a Western as something like 3:10 to Yuma (2007) but it had a lot going for it in that department too. I didn't care for some of the stuff towards/during the ending though. The unknown, young actress Hailee Steinfeld kind of steals the show. She has a bright future obviously.

Umm... what else? Oh yeah... it's amazing how much violence they can squeeze into a PG-13 movie these days. Seriously, you won't notice it's PG-13 at all. Definitely a good thing.

Very good movie, I thought, with interesting characters and an ending that isn't completely trite. I'd really love a moratorium on the phrase "coming of age" in any movie description, though.

(500) Days of Summer

Unfortunately I missed the first few minutes of this movie, but it didn't suffer for it, since I ended up loving every other minute. Maybe a bit predictable in the end, but you couldn't really ask for anything different. Really liked it.

[Phony Moderate]

The Great Escape. Very good.

[bullmoose88]

The Expendables (Decent Popcorn action flick...Stallone looks like crap).

The Secret of Kells (pretty darn good, even if its a cartoon).

[Joe Republic]

True Grit.

Pretty good.  Typical Coen Brothers.  Josh Brolin was underused, unfortunately.

Yeah, Brolin himself was barely in the movie at all.

[Tender Branson]

Skyline

The special effects were OK, the conversations and actors not.

You simply can't put Turk into such a movie ...

[Јas]

Up

Excellent.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Lesbian Vampire Killers. Man, that was awful.

Were you in a masochistic mood or summet?

[Plant City Rebel]

Legendary-actually it was pretty good, I was a bit surprised.

I would just like to suggest this be considered one of the greatest movies of all time. Amazing in all the wrong ways.

I was with two friends, at someone's home with few choices and it was late. And the gay one pushed heavily for that movie. The reasons for this remain largely mysterious to me. And, no, none of that constitute valid excuses, I know.

A part of me wanted to be able to provoke people afterwards by telling them that I watched it. Which seems to have worked on at least one person here.

(sadly, that benefit was not really worth actually watching it. Especially given the fact that I could have just pretended to have done so without actually doing it)

Red.

This was a pretty funny movie with good action as well. Apparently it has nothing to do with the graphic novel besides a similar general premise, but it worked. I guess Mary-Louise Parker doesn't have much range though, her character never struck me as much different from Nancy Botwin, though she was nice to look at which is what really matters.

Exit Through the Gift Shop

What a fascinating little film. Highly recommended.

[Hash]

The King's Speech: simply excellent
Black Swan: crap, stupid and insane
Red: Slightly amusing but overblown typical American action movie
Somewhere: ... what to say... the worst movie I've ever seen? An awful and stupid movie which is badly edited and totally devoid of any kind of conflict or real plot. It seems like they filmed a bunch of random things in the life of a boring loser and forgot to put them together or edit them properly. Awful. Awful.

It's not badly edited, it's a style. You may not like that style, I suppose, but it was certainly intentional. I didn't find it to be great, but I enjoyed Somewhere quite a bit.

The Town.  I thought it was good while being very implausible. Jeremy Renner saved the movie for me. I'm personally getting a little tired of these tough guy Boston movies though. You have every mick in a scally cap who doesnt pronounce their r's thinking they are a tough guy now.

I didn't care too much about Renner because his character really just wasn't that interesting. He was great in his gunfight near the end though. I was more impressed with Jon Hamm who had a similar one-dimensional character but did a better job of being notable.

The only thing I found really implausible about it that isn't the standard suspension of disbelief one has to accept is that it would take the FBI so long to find out Affleck was talking to the bank manager with all the surveillance he was supposedly under.

The Tourist.



God.awful.

[fezzyfestoon]

Yeah, the whole Boston sub-genre feels forced and exaggerated.  That alone annoyed me, on top of the ridiculous accents they put on.  Oh, and the entire state of Massachusetts saw 23 bank robberies last year.  So much for there having been 300 in Charlestown.
