What is the last movie you saw? and rate it.

The Beaver (Mel Gibson) - I'll give it a 6/10. It was very thought provoking, but gave little for entertainment. It started rather slow and never quite picked up. One thing that was very realistic, it portrayed life in a manner as such that life's problems will never be fully solved. We can address the issues in a positive way, but unlike the finale in most movies, all the problems that each person had were still there. But each person started coping with them in a different way. Maybe I'll up it to a 7/10.

A River Runs Through It

An oldy but a goody - actually much goodier then I remembered it. Great landscape scenery frames a fairly soft brotherly tale, but this time around upon finding out it was based on a true story, the much better for it. A portrait of the author's brother over a period of six months after having not seen each other for years, ending in tragedy which is hardly touched upon, leaving his memory fresh and eternal.

It's really very good 9.5/10

I should rewatch that. ^

The Iron Lady. I give it 6/10. Too much attempt to gain insight into her private life and little on her role as prime minister.

I watched A Christmas Carol last night. Its a nice movie and I'll give it 7/10.

I just watched Pulp Fiction, again. Still love Tarantino and this is one of his best.

Not a movie, but a documentary called What The Future Sounded Like, a history of British synthesizer development in the sixties. Quite interesting look at how Electronic Music Systems came into being, the AKS and VCS3. Also their powerful use in Dr Who via the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.

Great footage of a long-haired Brian Eno glammed up in Roxy Music, a look at Silver Machine and the origins of Hawkwind with comments from the band as they were only a few years ago.

Interesting was that back then computers were rare and one of the founders of EMS hocked his wife's tiara to get one (at the price of a house). It was so unusual that someone would want one for personal use that Tomorrow's World dedicated an episode on him and it. Enough memory to record a buzzing blowfly for half a second, and even performed something random on stage in front of an audience to mixed reviews, the music computer was here to stay.

9/10 (could have been longer)

A Dangerous Method - 2/5...I had high hopes for this movie, none of which were met. Viggo Mortenson delivered a great performance as Sigmund Freud, it's too bad that he was only in the movie for about 15 minutes. The rest was Keira Knightley screaming and Michael Fassbender showing us that Carl Jung isn't nearly interesting enough to deserve his own movie.

I just watched in class today the documentary 'The Amazing Truth About Queen Raquela' pretty good, raised a lot of questions among the students.

Saw The Wages of Fear again, which is is touring in a new HD restoration. I'm not sure much more can be done with a 1953 picture, but seeing this movie in a proper theater is always an experience. If you've never seen it and don't believe a 60-year-old black-and-white suspense film can hit a modern viewer hard, check it out.

9/10

One of the most exciting films ever. The tension in the cinema when I saw it was almost palpable. It's not that they don't make them like this nowadays it's just that they don't know how to.

I just finished watching The Squid and the Whale. It was great, I'd give it a 9 or a 10 out of 10. A good movie for a literary person, there are two writers amongst the characters. One pretentious character calls The Metamorphosis "Kafkaesque." Funny stuff.

This looks good.

Drive (2011) - 5/5...One of the best movies I've ever seen.

[Helga]

'Spun' I don't really know if I liked it or not. I did like the Swedish song, always funny to hear something familiar in a movie like that. I always love Jason Schwartzman so I guess it was good. No 'Trainspotting' but good

Yes I enjoyed this, well worth watching good comedy.
