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

I saw The Lady in the Water yesterday, but I didn't like it at all. Although the director had already been responsible for The Sixth Sense I find that he has enormously phased out since. His new movie was no more than cheesy fantasy to me, and some of the actors did a bad job (especially the director who chose to star himself...). Plus, I didn't like the background story which was of the moralising "humanity is so bad / has deliberately moved away from nature / has to be saved by benevolent creatures who know better..."

I'd give The Lady in the Water 3/10. (Three because the music was okay at times.)

I LOVE that film! A big reason that people have been disappointed in it is that they expect it to be like Shyamalan's other movies. It isn't, so you're going to be let down if you expect that. It is completely different, but wonderful in its own way. I thought he did a nice job of acting, and the type of story was great for me personally, so I loved it. I've given it a 9/10.
Have you seen The Village?

"Crank" 7/10...great and very creative action movie, lots of originality and hilarious characterization...but that's about it. Don't go expecting more than action, there is zero romance, zero drama, zero modern importance, and fractional comedy.

Beerfest 8/10

This is a man's movie. Lot's of guy humor in here but females can also appreciate it.

'The Seventh Seal' directed by Ingmar Bergman.
I requested this on TCM and they finally played it tonight, and wow it was well worth it. This movie was absolutely fantastic, one of the best I've ever seen, with some very memorable scenes, as well as a good chunk of dark humour, a wonderful plot, and themes that quite intrigued me. For anyone who has not heard of this or who has not seen it, I highly suggest you check it out (especially the existentialists in the forum, I know there are a few of you). Anyways, just because I refuse to give anything a score of 10/10 (Besides that blonde in the third row *whistle*) I'll give it a 9.9/10.

Khamosh Pani (Silent Water) - 10/10

An excellent movie, about a woman (from now India) left behind in (now) Pakistan after partition. A sad tale, it depicts the anguish of such people, how they are torn between then and now, this woman was torn between what her son wanted her to do (considering himself and her a Muslim) and her brother who is a Sikh, and she eventually chooses the middle path and jumps into the well, from which she ran away initially at the time of partition (people used to do such things during those days, to save the honour of their women). It is such a sad tale.

Re-saw Spike Lee's "The Inside Man," extremely filmy film. He does a good documentary on the CD. I've worked and talked to Spike a couple of times, and he's a pleasant guy. He knows film. Duh - the head of NYU Film School.

Currently watching the end of Fellowship of the Ring with my sister for the bazillionth time and loving it

Tristan and Isolde: am such a sucker for romantic movies. but dont tell anyone! i loved it. found Tristan v.ry attractive, he looks completely different to the actor in the posters, did they change the actors or something last minute?

(poor u vntage! i mean watching movie with your sister! if shes anything like my baby sister than u have my respect cos mine never ever shuts up, we see a movie that wev seen before she'll start telling me what happens next-like I dont know! And if we see a movie that we havent seen shel ask me 'what happens next?' and I give that look which comes to understand as : 'shut up or il kill you' but she has a short term memory so one second later we are back to square one!)

Yesterday, I watched Rosemary's Baby. It was a really good movie, about the things only a mother can do for her baby. It was really symbolic. The writer did a very good job with how a mother can even accept the baby she had from devil, and actors and actresses acting made the movie even more interesting.

But there were bits in movies, which looked very unreal and which wouldn't make me want to believe them. That's why I will give it 8/10.

I watched Harold and Maude this weekend for the...I don't know, 50th time and it never gets old or boring. I love this movie, I love the humour, I love the relationship between Harold and Maude, somehow you are able to get over the 'ick' factor of the fact that Harold is about 20 and Maude is almost 80 to really enjoy them together and rejoice that they found each other. Harold's mother just kills me, everything she says is a riot, the soundtrack, all by Cat Stevens is perfect, it's simply one of the greatest movies ever made.

I give it a 9/10 simply because of the plot line with the military guy because I thought that was weird and out of place.

Have you seen The Village?

Oh well, my friend, who went with me, liked it too, but it just didn't do for me...But given that it was the late screening starting at midnight, I was maybe just too tired to enjoy anything
No, I haven't seen the village yet, though I think that I might like to one day, but at daylight

I finished "The Phantom of the Opera" last night. It had excellent music and an interesting and mysterious plot. Unless you think about what's happening, there's a lot you won't figure out. Maybe a 7 out of 10

Lucky Number Sleven.

I loved it. It had one of my favorite actresses. Lucy Liu is awesome. Crazy plot. Made very little sense at first, but as movie progressed, it was so cool.

The film Elizabethtown was the last one I saw.

I actually liked it. The ending went a tad too far for my liking; I would have liked it better had the film ended a few seconds before a certain event. But the film was good; interesting and the actors played very well. I'd give it a 7/10.

I saw Volver by P.Almodovar this week.
I was impressed with Penelope Cruz's acting (which was actually realistic) and the film had an interesting plot, although a bit far fetched!
I'll give it 10/10 since it's one of the few actually good films that are out at the moment.
