Across The Universe

Horrible, without even the courtesy of being entertainingly bad through the most part.

"Rendition"

I thought it was excellent.  It highlighted some very real things going on in the world without being preachy, and for that, I am thankful.

The Darjeeling Limited

Good, not great, certainly no "Royal Tenenbaums."  but really good.

Lions for Lambs

meh.  I liked a third of it (the Cruise/Streep third).  they other 2 parts weren't very good.

30 Days of Night

kinda dumb, but I would have liked it more if all the characters would have kept their mouths shut throughout the entire movie. Some of the dialogue was reminiscent of a Michael Bay movie.

An old 1960s Burl Ives Childrens Classic -- Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

I love those Christmas movies -- Rudolph, Frosty, and Santa.

By the way, yes, I am a CHRISTMAS FREAK.  I already have my Christmas Tree up, and have had it up for two and a half weeks since Monday, October 8.  I start listening to Christmas Music heavily in September and watch the Christmas Movies in October.

I think he's taking his cues from retailers who have also been playing Christmas music and displaying trees for several weeks now.

What's Eating Gilbert Grape

It was alright suppose. I was quite disturbed when they had Mary Steenburgen and Johnny Depp getting 'jiggy with it'. It was, if not, worse than that show Viva Laughlin. Not to mention that morbidly obese woman sitting on the couch all day, it reminded me of a girl in my class.

Inland Empire. Solid Lynch, though not as good as the other Lynch films I've seen. Became parodic at times.

Goodfellas.

Could've cut down the middle a bit, it was kind of boring. The beginning and end were excellent of course.

"Into the Wild"

A.  completely excellent.  the lead, Catherine Keener, and especially Hal Holbrook are amazing in their roles.

Mean Creek - Very low budget indie film (not even a million dollars in the budget) that was awesome. Basically a look at these kids in rural Oregon and how they react to their plan that goes horribly wrong. The kids are actually great actors (including Macaulay Culkin's little brother) and it's gripping till the end. The last sequence is one of those that leaves you staring at the credits for a few seconds afterwords before you get up/turn it off. 10/10

This is one of my favorite movies.

Wow, me and BRTD agree.

I've seen two films in the past two days - Eastern Promises and Oldboy; both rather original works from original directors. The former is David Cronenberg's most recent feature and shows himself getting further and further away from the old Cronenberg style (seen in films like Videodrome or The Fly) and into something which actually could be said to be influenced by Oriental films. Despite this it still has the traditional violence though not as stomach turning as before though a 2-on-1 fight in a public bath is one of the most notable visual sequences in the film. Though Personally I prefer the old Cronenberg; though the 'why?' is somewhat to difficult to explain - perhaps it's because the film's plot is lacking in something, though the performances are all good especially Viggo Mortenson in one of the lead roles is brilliantly enigmatic. Perhaps my slight dissapointment is due to in the end this story of Women trafficing and the Russian Mafia set in London seemed just a bit too familiar.

Oldboy on the other hand is both brilliant and bizarre - though both films are quite similiar, appealing more to the celebral than the heart they feel just a little numbing at times and it's no wonder the student responsible for the Virginia Tech massacre listed this as one of his favourites (he renacted scenes from the film in his "video manifesto".) with it's mix of total paranoia, moody mystery and sense of complete helplessness, it's lead villian being very Bondesque with his Perfect suits and elaborate Penthouse but unlike Bond is a true master manipulator as this is a classic case of a story where "all is not what it seems". This may not be good or bad depending on your POV and this is in a running line of Oriental films like Battle Royale whose purpose is obvious meaningless violence (though unlike that film at least it doesn't justify itself with an asinine political message.) This Korean film could never be made in the United States or at least make into a mainstream theatre but anyone with an interest in film should check this out , even though the editing is unusual for those used to Hollywood and can be difficult to follow. Recommended.

Transformers

I'm still watching it now. The CGI in the film is brilliant, the acting is mediocre and it has the best ever product placement. I now have the urge to have a Pepsi and by a new Nokia mobile. Thank you very much Michael Bay.

Yeah, a good movie. I really liked it too. Even though D-Fens did a sh**tload of horrible stuff, by the end I felt kinda sorry for him.
