Hot Fuzz - 4.5/5 - A good movie let down by cliches.
I watched it today. It indeed had beautiful imagery and I liked the music as well! I think the bottom line of the whole thing was not to be afraid of death and that it was pointless to look for ways to defeat death. Well, that's my interpretation...could be way off of course!

B5 Voices in the Dark. part1 was no good, but part2 was really engaging. i want more of part2 =).

The last movie I saw was The Way Live Now.It is based on the novel by Anthony Trollope.It has a really good plot, and the characters are amazing.It had some really good actors like Miranda Otto,who plays Eyowin from LOTR,and Cillian Murphy, from Batman Begins.This was a totally fab movie!
I though that was funny. those two are great.

That was a great series based on a great book. Miranda Otto's accent was kind of weird though, took a bit away from the character for me but other than that, I really enjoyed it.

Hide And Seek.6/10
Leaping and hopping like a frog now, but still have a long way to go before I get crowned as "King Frog"!
I just finished Mean Streets. I made the mistake of watching 30 minutes of it at a time (my wife and I are trying to save money, so she doesn't know I have it. I was only able to watch it, when I had the house free. I've been watching it for the last month). Scorsese's films have a lot of intensity. I eould hae enjoyed the movie more, had I not lost the momentum. I give it 6/10.
With De Niro and Fanning?

I watched a couple of movies this week. The first one was The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, which is a movie I've been wanting to see since it came out and I finally got to it. This was a great movie, I love the touch of the surreal that always comes with Wes Anderson movies, granted, it's a heavier touch in this one but that makes it all the more charming.
Then I watched Secretary. It was a movie I was curious about because I had heard a lot about it and I added it to my netflix queue when I joined but while curious, I didn't have a driving need to see it so it was always getting pushed down the queue in favor of other movies and yet again, I moved it down a peg so I could put Stalker at the front but Stalker was unavailable so Secretary came instead. It was an odd movie...I have decided to look at it from a less literal view. I'm trying to overlook the S&M theme and think of it more symbolically, that we all have our scars, emotional of course, and we all have our little quirks and idiosyncrasies but that doesn't mean we can't find love. When you look at it that way, it's a downright lovely movie.

Deja vu (2006) director Tony Scott
Weird back-in-time plot with guy preventing people from dying, getting rid of the bad guy, falling in love, living happily ever after. At least it made sense and was entertaining enough...
6/10
Layer cake (2004) director Matthew Vaughn
This is based on J.J. Connolly's book Layer cake and surprisingly enough it followed the book's plot throuthfully for the most part. Until the end, which was quite drastically changed. Preferred the book, as usual.
6/10

I watched The Departed with great expectations and I was disappointed as well. There was all this hype and then it was just an average movie. Leonardo Di Caprio was in it - that made it worth seeing as long as you had the volume turned down and could fast forward to the scenes he was in.
Where did Adol09 go? Did he ditch us?
Too bad.

I tokk me about 3/4 of the way through to figure out why the music sounded so familiar - but not.

i watched the Oh in Ohio. Very cute. i reallyh like Parker Posey. Hard to believe Danny DeVito would have been her "provider" though. i'd give it 3 out of 4 for playfulness.
