Let the right one in - 6/10

I thought by the way everyone raved about it, that it would be better. It dragged on in parts.

You're crazy.

[Luminiferous]

The Dark Knight...5/10 (for Freeman and Caine)

Cool effects, but so fucking over-the-top and monotonous I just couldn't stay interested..

Christian Bale is the worst Batman ever.

I give those movies a zero just because he stinks 'em up so bad.

He is no Adam West thats for sure........

See I dug the shit out of "Batman Begins" but for some reason TDK just disappointed me.
I liked Ledger's Joker, but thought they made him a little too invincible..I mean he gets beat up, thrown around and doesn't even spit a little blood?
Hell even Nicholson's Joker spit some blood after a punch from Batman..

Maybe I let the hype build up my hopes too much..

poultrygeist :Night of the chicken dead i really wanted to see it because a friend at Dead Central did some of the effects.

but on a scale of 1 to 10, i'd give it a -24.

My ex wife is in that movie...she pulls her tits out in the beginning.

That girl in the pic is your exwife?

[acefrehleysbeer]

Show some tits!

Last movie I did not want to see: One Missed Call with some chick the day after July 4th. One of the worst movies I have ever seen. 1.5/10 for Shannon Sossymon (or whatever) and some mexican chick with a beautiful face.


Last movie I watched from my own volition: Miami Vice: The Prodigal Son Two hour season premiere from the second season. Guest Starring Gene Simmons, Pam Grier, and Penn Gillette. Awesome 8/10

Poultrygeist was great and I don't even like Troma movies.

"Away We Go"


2/10


Quirky...heavy on the relationship dialogue Dragged in parts.

I turned Yes Man off after fifteen minutes. It may have gotten better, but I wasn't wasting another second to find out.

That movie was pretty bad. Had I not been with a group of friends I just might've walked out.

Saw a few DVDs the other day while recovering from a two day bender.

Outlander: 6/10, I didn't know anything about this film, but it's fairly entertaining. Jim Cavaiezel plays himself like always, John Hurt was good, CGI was faily cool and the gore was realistic, but Ron Perlman was criminally underused.

The Last King Of Scotland: 7/10, All I knew about this was that Forrest Whitaker won an oscar. I thought it was going to be set in Scotland, which confused me, since well, Whitaker is black, and there aren't any blacks in Scotland. Turns out the film is set in Uganda which I kept confusing with Rwanda, so I kept waiting for a genocide but it didn't happen. Then at the end I realised the film was set in the 70s, and well there was no indication of that throughout the film. Pretty good film, but I couldn't find myself emphasising with any of the main characters.

Ironman: 8/10, I saw the first half of this on a plane and turned it off. Watched it on DVD, and thought it was brilliant. I am looking forward to the sequel, or the Avengers film which was teased at the end. Not sure why they used Samuel L. Jackson to be Nick Fury.

Angels & Devils: 4/10, saw this in the cinema like 3 weeks ago. Thought it was terrible, and worse than the DaVinchi Code. Only cool thing was that I have been to pretty much all the sites that the movie takes place in, much like the first one. Anyways, the whole film has Tom Hanks running from scene to scene, with crap dialogue, no character development, and Hanks' use of botox being quite apparent.

Drag Me To Hell - 7 out of 10. Predictable, but entertaining.

[YYC]

Son of Rambow. Cute British kids movie, kinda quirky. 6.5/10

[Facedown]

Ratatouille - 9/10
Pixar rules and this didn't disappoint.

[MurrayFiend]

Suspicion- 7/10. Decent Hitchcock film with some funny one-liners and a good Cary Grant performance.

[BD888]

Outlander: 6/10, I didn't know anything about this film, but it's fairly entertaining. Jim Cavaiezel plays himself like always, John Hurt was good, CGI was faily cool and the gore was realistic, but Ron Perlman was criminally underused.

Can not believe I still havent seen this one....vikings and aliens for godsakes.

It's very similar to Beowulf in story line and concept. Change the magic to aliens, and the banquette hall to a wooden fort (which has a banquette hall), and it's almost the same film.

[Garbageman]

Trouble Man 4.5/10

This was a 1972 blaxploitation movie best known for it's Marvin Gaye theme song. It was pretty slow moving and far less violent than the most enjoyable blaxplaitoition movies. Then again, not everything can be "Dolemite,""Truck Turner," or "The Mack." The possible highlight was seeing the dad from "The Waltons" in a pimped outfit with an ascot.

Aboslutely freezing here in Melbourne today, so the gal came over and we sat by the heater watching some old exploitation/horror DVDs:

LET SLEEPING CORPSES LIE - 8/10: Very moody and surprisingly gory 1974 film from the UK, but made by a Spanish director and partly filmed in Rome, so it had a very continental flavour. Fantastic photography and atmosphere.

HITCH HIKE TO HELL - 5/10: Mid 70s American sleaze about a Momma's boy driving around Glendale in his laundry van, picking up hitch hikers and strangling them with his coat hangers. Seems his sister ran away from home and hitched to San Francisco, breaking his momma's heart, so now he has it in for runaways. Has the Professor from Gilligan's Island as the main cop. Enjoyable for the trashy drive-in fodder that it is.

SSSSSSSSSSS - 7/10: Early 70s American horror about a reptile doctor experimenting with snake serum on humans. Dirk Benedict (later of Battlestar Galactica and The A-Team) is his unwitting student volunteer who slowly finds himself turning green and growing scales. A cool little film, could almost be a TV movie, and has some nice scenes inside a tacky travelling carnival that made it more enjoyable for me...

Eddie Murphy double featured last night

Showtime 7/10

Bowfinger 8/10 , criminally under rated flick, i just love that steve martin character.

[Bridget]

Sideways - 6.5/10. Just not all that exciting.

[graveyardtramp]

Bowfinger 8/10 , criminally under rated flick, i just love that steve martin character.

Great film! Probably both Martin and Murphy's last really good film....

Agreed.

[tabitha666]

My Sister's Keeper -- 6/10 because they changed the ending.
Year One -- 3/10 not very funny.

[James Bon]

"Wild at Heart", David Lynch rarely dissapoints. I liked Willem Dafoe's character the best, and it also reminded me that there was a time when Nicolas Cage was in good movies, so I'd give it 8/10.

Just threw this in the netflix queue. Thanks for the heads up.

Just saw Public Enemies with Johnny Depp. Boring!

I knew that one would be boring! Thanks for saving me the tickets.

Watched Death Race again last night. Converted my wife into a fan.

[theglammerthebetter]

48 hours 7/10 classic 80's cheese and violence

[whitebread]

The Wrestler - just got done watching and had heard alot of rave on it. Soundtrack was great. They really went out of their way to dig up some cool not so popular metal songs. Good movie but didnt care for the ending so much. Just tell us if he lives or dies for fuck sake. I take it dies. I'll give it 8-10

[Mousis]

Che Pt. 1 - 6/10

Didn't meet my expectations. Could have been better, but hope to see the second part soon.

Edit: Benicio was awesome!
