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?

Funny People - I actually enjoyed it. I thought it was going to be bad. Not so.

Temple Grandin - It was really good. Made me cry. They did a great job showing Temple's perspective.

I saw Eat, Pray, Love on an airplane. It sucked hard. If I'd been watching it at home I would have turned it off after the first 30 minutes. It's the worst movie I've seen in a while, including The American.

The first 10 minutes of The American is interesting. After that save some of your life and go do something else.

Tangled is not a movie I'd reccomend. It wasn't terrible but there are many Disney movies that are more entertaining.

I've been watching Spartacus on Netflix streaming and it's a great show. I can't say I like the main character but I do want him to survive when he fights.

Kick-Ass, which although was a disturbing film with children shooting up places like the scene in Godfather III and children getting shot, was different. I liked not quite knowing what to make of it.

Werner Herzog's Encounters at the End of the World. It really lacked focus on any particular subject but the few interviews he did with some of the researchers living there were priceless. I had no idea seals made "Led Zepplin" noises! Cinematography was outstanding but the score selection for the scenes was high pitched and irritating.

Just saw The Human Centipede last night..

-Looks like a low budget movie
-Horrible acting (except for the mad doctor)
-Too many times where the actors would do/not do something thats common sense..its like... really?
-Ending sucked

Basically..don't ever pay to watch this movie..it is a little disgusting but nothing over the top. The plot is the same ol generic horror movie theme. 2 dumb girls get lost on a way to a nightlcub..they get a flat tire..they wander into the woods...etc etc

"The Haunting of Amelia" aka "The Other Side of the Tracks" - Terrible acting, predictable plot and a horrible use of some decent enough songs.

"Pi" - I watched it when it came out back in the 90s - I thought maybe I'd get a bit more out of it all these years later. Not really, but I did see a lot of "Eraserhead" in the movie.

My gf had never seen The Big Lebowski so I told her how funny it was and convinced her to watch it with me. It wasn't nearly as funny as I remember and now she's questioning my taste in movies.

Red- 6.5
The Switch- 6

Both were better then I thought they were going to be. Liked them,and would watch again a few months down the line.
