I agree. (I like The Attack of the Clones better, because it's not so sad, but on the other hand, Anakin is even better-looking in The Revenge of the Sith...:rolleyes: ) But it's a great movie anyway!Quote:

The Hottest State, directed by Ethan Hawke. Highly recommend.
Scenes Of A Sexual Nature (no it's not a porn) Great flick.
Ever after.
The Kite Runner
Anyone hear how the Afghani actors situation resolved itself?
I give it and 8/10
I thought that one was the best of the 3. Maybe I liked it the best as it was the "darkest" of the 3. After all, my 3rd favorite film of all-time is "The Empire Strikes Back". That was definitely the "darkest" of the first 3!Quote:

The book here in Brazil is so popular, but my sister told me it isn't all that good. have you read it? do you know if the film is just like the book or a little different? :)Quote:

I'm doing an assignment on it for a film class. In the past two days I've probably seen this one scene about 200 times.....ugh.......Still love the movie though, and I think it is up there around 9 and half out of ten. Fantastic film.
Transformers,with my kids.In our eye's speaking for my kids aswell,that movie rocked!
Last weekend I watched a couple of strange little Danish movies and one incredibly visually impressive Chinese movie. The Danish ones were Adam Apples starring Mads Mikkelsen, who has become a favorite of mine. The movie was odd, incredibly odd about neo nazis and brain tumors and...it was just odd. The other Danish movie was The Celebration which was a giant mess of a movie. Not mess as in bad just mess as in intense emotional distress. It was very intense and confusing but worth the time. The Chinese movie was Hero starring Jet Li. Watching those fight scenes was like watching a ballet and the story was almost operatic in scope and emotion. The use of color in the telling of the different versions of the story was just absolutely brilliant and the actor who played Broken Sword, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, was eye candy at it's most stunning. :D
I am especially fond of that scene in the movie where Comfortably Numb is playing after Costigan shows up at his ex-shrink's apartment, and after he pulls the picture of her on bike out and hangs on the wall. That is a great scene :thumbs_up :DQuote:

9/10
David Lynch's Wild at Heart I'd give it a 1 out of 4
Pontecorvo's The Battle of Algiers 4 out of 4
August Rush.
Amazing movie with amazing music and cast.
Ah yeah Seven Years in Tibet is great. I loved its plot. :thumbs_upQuote:

Sleeping with the Enemy - 8/10
My Big Fat Greek Wedding - 8/10
I watched last night "We were Soldiers" on television with Mel Gibson.
It was actually pretty good.
I watched a couple of movies this weekend, two very different movies. The first one was Waitress and the second was Zelary, a Czech movie taking place during WWII. Both were excellent in their own, completely different way.
Juno: 6.5/10
Unfortunately, I expected much better from this film due to the interesting topic of teen pregnancies and also the massive hype from the media. However, I found the protagonist (Juno) somewhat arrogant as opposed to witty...(Admittedly funny on occasion, but it was certainly over - done)
The film was in general quite pleasant and had no predictable the-world-is-perfect happy endings.
Hi Idril, I saw "Zellary" awhile back and I really liked it. It sort of starts out slow and you wonder if you will like it, but then you really involve yourself and it gets quite good, as you said in a completely different way. I thought the acting was excellent. I haven't seen the other film. I will check it out if I have a chance.Quote:

A very early Mel Gibson film I just love is "Galappoli", I think I spelled that wrong. I will look it up and let you know. It is about the battle there on the shoreline, but more importantly about two young friends from Australia who are star runners. I just love that film!Quote:

"The Perfect Man"
2/10
One of those movies where, after you finish it, all you can think is "why did I just watch that?"
Hi Dori, 2 out of 10 ? - I guess he was not a 'perfect' man!:lol:Quote:

Who am I, a guy, to judge what makes a man "perfect"? :p Now if the movie was about the perfect woman, I might be more interested (and perhaps more apt to judge). ;)Quote:

It begs the question, what is perfect?
Is a perfect relationship one without doubt? disagreement? That's not real, how can it be perfect?
Told you I get philosophic at night Dori...
"The perfect man" that the movie refers to is one that is "perfect" for a particular woman in the movie. Somehow the fact that they both do crossword puzzles in pen made them right for each other (although that wasn't the only thing).Quote:

I watched "300" yesterday and I'd say it was one of the best movies I've seen. Shame I didn't watch it in the cinemas. Oh and also "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" was amazing. :D
I've read an article about that movie that said it was the worst movie of 2005. I've seen it and you are right.Quote:

Ratatouille

Police Academy 1,2, & 3
Actually I didn't mind "Barbershop". It is "Barbershop 2" that isn't too great. So, if you didn't like the first, definitely stay away from the second!Quote:

I haven't watched "Police Academy" in years! I could actually go for them again! :D
"Love's Labours Lost"? Niamh, is it the Kenneth Branagh film version? If so, I own it and I love this film. It is so much fun; I watch it all the time. I feel like they said - hey, let's get together and put on this musical and have a good time in the bargain. It makes me smile from ear to ear throughout. It is so enjoyable and I even like the singing, even though not one of the players is an actual singer, by profession. I own the CD and truly enjoy it.Quote:

Hi, LW!
Yes, I always liked that movie. Another one that I haven't seen in years.Quote:

"eagle vs shark".... ummm... strangely fantastic is the only way to put it... it is like napoleon dynamite on crack... quite possibly great...
What is that movie? Who stars in it? I can't remember if I have seen it or not. :)Quote:
