A "Hey I just watched a movie" thread

12,438 1,117 April 23, 2010 at 06:49 PM
One of the other forums I go to has one of these threads and I've been turned on to some good movies that other regulars just watched. I was kind of surprised not to see a similar thread here (at least not that I could find.) Big Grin

I just rewatched "Kinamand" - a cute drama about a Danish plumber who gets involved in an arranged marriage with a Chinese illegal. Good stuff (Netflix instant.)

So what have you folks watched recently?

Ip Man 2

Meh, the first was good but this was a little dissappointing as most sequels usually tend to be.

I finally saw Iron Man 2 over the weekend. I liked it more than the first one.

I thought it had very funny parts in it, and overall it was a decent movie (IF you liked the first one). However, I will say that But that's just my opinion.
Iagree

I liked it, and thought it was funny - but it was definitely not so funny that I was laughing so hard I was falling out of my chair. I had some laughs. I think this time they relied more on it being shocking than anything.

I watched this last night. It was so well done (great editing, and the film footage found/create for it just fit perfectly.) The fact that they got Jan Hammer to do the soundtrack just made it fit even better. Great call!

BTW - that one scene you warned about was absolutely heartbreaking.
Nice, the second one is worth a look too. Yea that scene was tough to watch, especially with real pictures.

I have free Redbox codes that expire 6/01 too, PM me if you want one.

Haven't watched many movies lately and my Netflix blu-rays are just sitting in the drawer. I have Unstoppable and I Love You Phillip Morris to watch soon. I did see Hereafter last week and liked it enough. I wanted to see more of Matt Damon's character. It took a long time for the stories to intersect in this movie, and it was almost boring at times. I loved the tsunami scene, shows how powerful water can be. Oh and I loved seeing Bobby Baccalieri teaching the cooking class! I miss the Sopranos and like when I run across an actor from that show in another film.

I watched Salt tonight. Was prepared to be disappointed, but I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. Kind of a Bourne movie, but with Jolie, and left open to continue the action. Thumbsup
saw that a few weeks ago. didn't like it. i thought the ending was abrupt as though they ran out of production dollars or writer budgets. laugh out loud

"Phil the Alien" shake head ok so there is a talking beaver, an alien who loves whiskey, fugly hookers and Niagra Falls and really that's the whole movie. nod 1.5/5

"Alice in Wonderland" I think this was punishment for leaving my air conditioned apartment and heading to the city in the heat to pick up this crap with Johnny Depp. I so hated this movie. Johnny looked like Carrot Top on crack, Helena Botom Carter finally combed her hair. This movie made me sick. It was annoying, every version is always annoying. Why Alice, why this boring child? How does her hair become curlier as the movie progress. What's up with the white witch that was dancing on her own special drug. Somebody please stop approving Tim Burton movies especially starring his wife and Johnny Depp. I just can't any more and I was sober when I watched it. 2/5

"Devdas" - Indian. I could have done without the Bollywood singing/dancing skits, but it wasn't too bad (long though).

"A ClockWork Orange" - 40 years on and it still holds up. I don't love it as much as some, but I enjoyed it (my 4th viewing)

"Cocaine Cowboys 2" - It was OK - the first one was so good that it had a very tough act to follow.
