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

[Bleeding Pawn]

Haven`t seen Oblivion but after going through its synopsis, it seems it is very similar to the anime Conan, the boy in future.

I haven`t seen it. I managed to see only Conan films with Schwarzeneger. I like very much "Solomon Kane" with J. Purefoy directed by M. Basset.

I watched a very good documentary called Where the Yellowstone [river] goes.

[Snowqueen]

And what did you think, Snowqueen?.

I liked the movie, but I think it could have been better.

[YesNo]

I enjoyed Argo. It seemed realistic and I hope the portrayal was the way the events happened even though the narrow escapes were almost too much to believe. I would give it a 10/10.

[Lykren]

Fanny and Alexander, which is undoubtedly one of the best movies I have ever seen.

[YesNo]

Price Check: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1845849/

This is almost too realistic to be a comedy. I think I want to see Horrible Bosses again just to get it out of my system.

Score 5/10

[Snowqueen]

I watched Hugo with my cousin who brought it for me. We both liked it. 7/10

[YesNo]

I saw a couple of entertaining relationship movies. I'd call these "chick flicks", but the males were treated better than I'd expect them to be in a chick flick.

Save the Date: score 8/10

This is about a woman planning her wedding. At the same time her sister breaks up with a friend of the groom and finds another lover. There is also a mother and father who are separating. I think the males were well portrayed. Were I in situations like those presented in the movie, I could see myself doing stuff like that.

Take This Waltz: score 8/10

The movie starts out with a scene at an historical site where actors pretend they are taking a male adulterer out for public humiliation. The audience is allowed to participate by whipping the actor. During the movie the female actors are portrayed fully nude in a shower scene. Toward the end there are two explicit sex scenes which made me suspect two of the main actors were actually having sex. I think Sarah Polley's point was to make the audience wonder about the actors as real people. Did their participation in creating the movie involve adultery in their real lives and was that acceptable?

[Galvin500]

A haunted house. It's a spoof of Paranormal activity and it was hilarious. 9/10

[Snowqueen]

Me and my nieces watched The Road to El Dorado last night. It was good and we enjoyed it. Most of the songs were performed by Elton John. 7/10

I enjoyed Argo. It seemed realistic and I hope the portrayal was the way the events happened even though the narrow escapes were almost too much to believe. I would give it a 10/10.

The film took a lot of liberties. There was no narrow escape. The Iranians at the airport didn't even scrutinize them. They never went to that busy market either. A lot of Canadians boycotted the film because it downplays our role in the whole affair. I'm not one of them. They were just trying to make an entertaining film, and they definitely succeeded. I think the quality of the film warrants the praise it has received.

I recently watched Life of Pi. One of the most entertaining and visually stunning films I've seen in a very long time. It seemed to pose as more philosophically profound than it actually was, but that may be due to them trying to incorporate some of the book's themes.

8.5/10

[YesNo]

I didn't know that about the actual events that Argo was based on, Darcy88. Their escape did seem unrealistic, but entertaining. The Canadians were taking the biggest risks while hiding them in Iran.

We say Jack Reacher last night. Score: 4/10. I couldn't figure out why they needed to kill so many people to get that company or do it in that elaborate way except to push the plot along. Tom Cruise is better in comedies like Knight and Day. Then it doesn't matter if the plot doesn't make sense so long as it's funny.

[Darcy88]

I also just watched Promised Land. Easily the worst Matt Damon movie I've ever seen. Utterly insipid and lacklustre. It also had Francis Mcdormand and Hal Holbrooke, so I was expecting a good film. It just wasn't. It is very disappointing to me that the only mainstream Hollywood movie to take on the issue of natural gas and fracking is one so lacking in entertainment and provocativeness.

2.5/10

One could argue that the same could apply to action movies as long as they're exciting. Normally I'd make mystery movies an exception, as the plot is the whole point, but then giallo mysteries don't always make sense, but it was (is?) a successful genre anyway. I guess it's just a matter of how far the viewer is willing to suspend disbelief for the sake of enjoyment.
