A "Hey I just watched a movie" thread

Quote from Kabn : so it has the extended, dry, non-action dialogue sequences from Inglourious Basterds, the very dark and awkward humor of Zombieland, and the clever wit of all the characters in Sherlock Holmes? where was all that in the trailers? i'm sure i'll end up seeing it someday.

Hmm Shaun of the Dead? Now THAT is one special movie!!

Chronicles of Riddick - very reminiscent of Beastmaster in several ways. 2.5/5 Loved the female flight computer:

Plotted course. Good.
Blue angle (?). Good.
Angle of approach. Not good.

Hanna 6/10

Had high expectations but thought the movie was boring. Need more Bourne Identity and less techno music. Didn't really care if she died or not and Cate Blanchette (sp?) was a bad villain.

Snatch 9/10

Last time I watched it was 10 years ago and it's just as great. Better than Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

A Simple Plan 7/10

Decent movie about 3 guys who find $4m and decide to keep it. Never simple when that much money is involved. Wonder what I'd do if I found $4m.

Paranormal Activity 3 6/10

Booooring and not scary. I liked the first one and second one was ok for a few scares but this on just dragged on with little scare.

The Lookout 7/10

Nothing great but not bad either. Gordon-Levitt plays a janitor who works at a rural bank after sustaining a debilitating head injury in a car crash. He is befriended by a bank robber who entices him with promise of a better and normal life. Things don't go as planned.

The Hunger Games 7.5/10

Good enough. Book was better of course.

And still... You gave it 6/10.

The Informant - Not sure what this movie was about or how much was true or not figuratively speaking. It had a few funny moments but

I am generous.

Quote from Justawannabe : Hmm Shaun of the Dead? Now THAT is one special movie!!

i love Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz.

i really liked the informant, but didn't like hot fuzz. that movie was about as disappointing a movie as it gets.

Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans - Love Werner Herzog. Don't love Nick Cage.

That's just an awkward title right there.

i hadn't seen the original, so i didn't have a comparison. but i remember not loving (but not hating) this movie. though i saw it when it first came out on DVD, which was a couple years ago i think....?

The original Bad Lieutenant with Harvey Kietel (sp?) was good but explicit.

Do you think they had to remind him to pull his foreskin back when they stopped filming during the nude scene?

Quote from DBC : Do you think they had to remind him to pull his foreskin back when they stopped filming during the nude scene?

I remember thinking WTF?? That was the car scene where he forced a hooker to give him oral. He's so ugly to begin with and then they want to show you more of him.

At least in Eastern Promises when Viggo Mortenson was fighting completely nude with his junk flapping around there was something interesting about it.

I recommend a British show called "The Take". Most of you will like it.
