"No Country For Old Men" 10/10
manolia, I am dying to see this now; my library has it in. My son told me it was like nothing he had ever seen before and he thought it was great! Now you rated it 10/10 - wow, we will have to discuss it, too.;)Quote:

Deja Vu 8/10
The Tale of Two Sisters 3.0/4.0 :eek:
Currently watching -- Pretty Woman :D
I really like romantic movies. Julia Roberts looks so pretty :D and Richard Gere is :blush: :D
Haven't seen Pretty Woman in ages!! :)
Chromophobia (2005, Martha Fiennes, you can guess whose sister she is!)
Good cast, I expecially liked Penelope Cruz in this one...but it left me feeling a bit confused. 6/10
Penelope - It was okay in general... The best bit was watching James McAvoy ;) I spose I'd give it a 7/10... James McAvoy helped increase the rating a little :lol:
The Empire Strikes Back. One of the top 5 movies ever made - 11/10.
Shine A Light, the Rolling Stones concert film by Martin Scorsese. Check out my review in my blog: http://www.online-literature.com/for...515&entry=5166
Just watched Georgia Rule starring Jane Fonda and Lindsey Lohan. It wasn't what I expected at all, and I guess that's a good thing. I was sure I would hate Jane Fonda's character, but as it turns out, she wasn't so horrible after all. Garrett Hedlund plays Lohan's love interest in the film, and I was shocked at how goofy his character was after seeing him in Friday Night Lights. I guess I'll give it a 7/10.
Joseph and ralph by any chance?:DQuote:

That incessant drumming during the oil derrick fire scene made me want to pull my brain out through my ears!
Sin City 4.0/4.0
Niamh, I looked up her bio and sure enough she is the sister to Joseph and Ralph. I found out also that Joseph is a faternal twin. I never knew that before. There are a number of siblings. Wonder if any of them act.Quote:

They also, have the others, I have been wanting to see. I guess I keep missing them, since they go out so quickly, being new and so popular. I was able to get and watch:Quote:

It was all impeccable I thought. The soundtrack also fit the film perfectly. The acting was stellar and I especially loved James McAvoy, in the role. I am not a big Keira Knightly fan but I thought she did a fine job in this role. She played it just right. I thought the child actress was phenomenal, who played Briony and then the actress who plays her as a young woman really resembled her. I kept thinking how fine the casting was, with Vanessa Redgrave playing the older version of the same person...very well done and believable.
I haven't read the book, but the movie has inspired me to do so. I will probably fit it in soon; I don't think the book is that long.
I would rate the film highly and recommend it to anyone. :thumbs_up
