A "Hey I just watched a movie" thread

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.) 
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?

I went in with rather high expectations. I love the superman movies and the first few seasons of Smallville. I enjoyed Man of Steel quite a bit. There were quite a few emotional moments and a butt load of action. I have only two mail problems with it. Spoiler (kinda). At the end Lois knows that Clark is Superman, and Zod gets defeated hand to hand by superman. He's trained military and has all the powers of superman, but gets beat hand to hand? In the original he was outsmarted (reverse psychology that a 5 year old would not fall for...).
So it was generally very good and I will end up buying it when it comes out.
So, you have to ignore some things. You have to really just get over some of it. It's not bad as a popcorn flick. Fiance and I really liked it.
It's happy, it's cheesy, it's light. Nice change for a zombie movie.

Movie storyline was so-so, but damn that Henry Fonda & James Stewarts were good actors. They don't make them like that anymore.

Zod was a creation of Krypton's baby farm with single task of being a Soldier/General, where as Superman was naturally born then given the best of all DNA and makes him superior. As for Lois knowing that he is Superman is more realistic than having him put on glasses and not recognizing him.
