But I like the movie...Chinese cultures and dresses always fascinate me..

That's because I didn't post about it. Isagel suggested that one after I gave my opinion on Hero (I believe it's on page 15 on this thread). That being said, I did watch The House of Flying Daggers this week. Just as you, I was expecting a more adventure-oriented movie, but it was fine anyway. The costumes, choreographies, effects, etc. are more than okay, as usual, but unlike Hero, I found the story to be somewhat lacking. The characters are unreliable, I found them very unappealing, and the histeric component imbedded in all of them annoyed me considerably. It was a good way to spend time (for me, anyway), but I got the feeling that it was only because I dig this kind of films. Casual viewers might want to see Hero instead of this one, as it's better and much more enjoyable.

And BTW, Isagel, feel free to post more suggestions, you are very welcome. :nod:

Ms. Psyche and I watched The Life Aquatic, directed by Wes Anderson, the same for, one of my favorite movies, The Royal Tenenbaums. I cannot say I enjoyed this one as much, but I still found it brilliant, especially with Bill Murray and Angelica Houston still in the cast - as always the same dry, hilarious humor. :D
My rating: 8.5/10.

Patch Adams with Robin Williams nice despite being a true story.
8/10

I have just returned from Star Wars Episode 3:Revenge Of The Sith. It was ok, the special effects were amazing; Yoda is still the coolest guy in the world; and there are some decent laughs. However, it still is not a patch on the original films. Overall 7.5/10

Patch Adams- Robin Williams

9/10, made me cry :(. Anyone else watch this on Friday night I think it was!

yeah Rachy I said I did and it made me cry too! I looked up the Gusunheit! institute satarday morning and they haven't built it yet what 30 years on! but at least theyve started.
Did you notice how at the end of the film it said based on a book? I think it was called the Gusunheit! institute is no laughing matter. I think Ill read that as soon as these pesky exams are finished!!

What the @$@#$# do we know? - Fairly good movie, it started out talking about quantum physics then went into... I can't explain it. I give it 8/10 (it was a little slow in parts).

I watched 3 films today!
Nicholas Nickleby - Great film! Cried like a baby- 7/10
Lion King 3- Was OK, clever how it used the first film, but you should never carry on a good Disney film, you go too far with a sequel, but should NEVER do a third! 5/10
Ocean's Eleven- Third time I've seen it and LOVE it! 8/10 !

Psyche rented a movie, of which she napped through, that her roommate and I watched called I ♥ Huckabees. What a strange film - twisted and unpredictable, yet insightful. Through each scene I found myself never knowing what to expect, but it had a very interesting, attention-getting plot, though with odd details.
My rating: 7.5/10.

I just watched Fight club with the other sorry people who cant stay away from school and psychology teacher!
Nice but I was told about the schizophrina bit ' what ---- you havent got it yet? I would have thought you were the first to get it!' thanks for the confidance!
yeah I liked it a bit violent and the ending was a but wierd I mean if he shot himself why is he alive and tyler dead??
Also it leaves questions unanswered which tends to make me :rage: !
7.8/10

Cold Mountain - kudos!!!! to Renee Zellweger. Miss Kidman struck me as insipid and unnecessarily modern (Chanel lipstick and blush on a former belle trying to run a farm in the middle of nowhere?). Jude Law is rather good as a character actor.

an 8.9

saw the documentary Enron last night. guess what - my dad's coworkers were in it, firefighters helping a woman out of an elevator during one of the rolling blackouts.

really psychologically amazing, and extraordinarily sad on a negative humanity scale (very close to a negative 10). my rating: a 9.5/10

oh yeah, also checked A Lion in Winter out of the library. excellent performances by Kate Hepburn and Peter O'Toole - magnificent, really. they don't make actors like them anymore...
sort of odd to see Anthony Hopkins in his youth
another high nine...maybe a 10.

OK, I just saw SW Revenge of the Sith. It is a lot better then number 1 and 2. Number 1 was just a Disney movie and 2, too romantic....Now number 3. I like, not as good as the old once by far, but good. untill the ending!!!!! now I am mad.

If you haven't seen this movie DO NOT READ!

Padme dies giving birth to her twins. WRONG! in Return of the jedi Luke asks Princess Leia, what their mother was like, well she says that she died when Leia was 4 and that she was always sad.
Leia is adopted by a senator. WRONG! it's princess Leia not a senators daughter!

Death of A Salesman- Dustin Hoffman.
Dustin Hoffman is my favourite actor so I was bound to love this film anyway! But it was still great! I love they way the set was laid out, it showed that this is a play and is meant to be acted out on stage, and Dustin's character Willy was so cute, and I genuinely felt for him! I love this film!
8/10

A fabulous movie in the true sense of the word....yes, a feel good movie, but what is the sin in "feeling good" I ask you. Crowe, Giamatti, Zellweger and the whole cast were terrific.

Oscars abound for this flick.......I do believe this is the best picture so far, this year.

PS

Don't miss it. :banana:
