What movie did you watch last night? (10 Viewers)

[pete]

American Gangster - awesome
1408 - awesome.....ly shit

 

[Mormon Nailer]

Good Luck Chuck

Funnier than I expected and there were a couple of moments in that were pretty wierd for this type of romantic comedy. I'm not a Dane Cook fan but he is pretty personable in this. And there Jessica Alba too.

Great. 10/10

Quiz show. John Tuturro was irritatingly brilliant in it.

 

[jane]

Running with Scissors.

Totally doesn't capture the humour of the book and had a bit too much of a single plot line. The book was hilarious enough not to be depressing, the movie was just depressing. I wanted it to be good, but I was pretty disappointed.

 

[Super Dexta]

die hard 4.0. really enjoyed it. i heart explosions. also the requisite Evil Genius was Ridiculously Fucking Hot.

I was looking at the IMDB page for this

Someone has put "non statutory female on male rape" as a plot keyword. Vary strange.

it's brilliant

 

[Gambra]

it's brilliant

I think it is too but I find myself comparing it to and weighing it up against Knocked Up (which I though was awful, very few funny bits)..

It's a comedy, I should have to think about it this much..

 

[Mitchum]

The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford.

Looks pretty cool-well it looks like Heaven's Gate-but it's faaaar too long and ponderous. Would have benefitted by some decent editing. Great performances by Brad Pitt and Sam Rockwell though and an excellent score by Nick Cave & Warren Ellis. Yer classic 6/10.

 

[Raudi Raus Schinkel]

Sideways - brilliant

I seriously don't understand the love of this movie. I thought it was painful to sit through.

Did you check your cushion for nails?

Or alternately, a pea?

 

[Jill Hives]

Or alternately, a pea?

Sadly, I'm not a princess. The best line was by the bride-to-be's father who claimed he didn't have time for fiction because there was too much real stuff to read about. After that I started to snooze.

 

[Mitchum]

Aaltra.

Blackly humourous Belgian road-movie about two bitter wheelchair-bound chaps travelling to Finland to get compensation from the tractor manufacturer who they believe is responsible for their accident. One for fans of early Wenders, Jarmusch and Aki Kaurismaki. The latter has a brief cameo.

I totally agree. I didn't really like it, and I don't understand why it's so highly regarded. It's okay and stuff, but I just don't see where it's amazing, or how it differs in any way from that jaded, aging Gen-X coulda-been-shoulda-been-somebody stuff, all of which is mediocre because the characters are so unlikeable. I think people think they're 'real' because they're flawed, but like Vonnegut says, you gotta always give us one character we can root for. I know he says those rules are made to be broken, but you know, I just needed someone to root for, and I thought they were all, not too 'flawed' but just too boring to bother my arse doing any mental cheerleading.
