Red Belt 9/10
A movie about martial arts for thinking people, with excellent acting and an interesting plot.
The Wrestler 3/5 I didn't get it
Vicky Cristina Barcelona 4/5 loved it
I am back............................
Milk 8/10. Very interesting subject matter.
Through the darkness of future past

one chance out between two worlds
'Fire walk with me.'

Kabluey 7.5 out of 10... interesting look into Suburbia and loneliness, amongst other things.
Also, just saw Rocknrolla... I would rate it as an 8 or so. Definitely no SNATCH, but I love Guy Ritchie all the same. There were not that many great lines in this one, but there was some depth to it. The Johnny Quid character was terrific!

Hello,
my favorite movie is "Room with a View". The actors (Helena Bonham-Carter, Julian Sands, Maggie Smith, Judy Dench and Daniel Day Lewis.
It is delightfully comic and it plays in Florence and the English countryside.
Hi kathy, I see you are new here so welcome to the forum! I also love this film emensely. I love the book as well; the book actually makes me laugh out loud. It is about time for me to see the movie again. I watch it from time to time since I happen to own a copy. All the actors are suberb. You left one out - the young brother played by Rupert Graves. He also played a soldier in "Fortunes of War" - the BBC miniseries and I believe he was in another of novel adaptation - "Maurice". He is awfully cute and had been in a number of really good productions and films. Anyway, you worded that last line accurately - "delightfully comic". I fully agree. I love the part when the men go bathing in the wooded pond. I could not stop laughing.Originally Posted by kathy30

I also very much like Vicky Cristina. Cruz, I think, was really brilliant in this movie.
I watched Dogma last night for the thousandth time; I own it. It definitely seems one of the more intelligent films by Kevin Smith, and has several elements of dark humor, puns on religion and spirituality (particularly Catholicism and Paganism), featuring an ironic figure as God.
Rating: 8.5/10.
Ok, went to the cinema on sunday after work with my friend and there wasnt much to choose from so went to see kidies fantasy movie The Secret of Moonacre. I love kids movies so i really enjoyed this! was very funny. 8/10
Yesterday before work, i watched Disneys Beauty and the Beast. I havent seen it in years and it is still as great as i remembered it to be. (Little mermaid was a sad disapointment after seeing it for the first time in something like 13 or 15 years.) 9/10

Grand Trino 5/5 I loved it. I could have turned around and gone back into see it.
I am back............................
"The Happening" by M. Night Shyamalan..5/10 maybe less. Predictable, mediocre, not atmospheric.

Coraline. 10/10
I love Neil Gaiman, I loved the book Coraline, I love the movie.
Then she would run until morning to ease the ache; swifter than rain, swift as loss, racing to catch up with the time when she had known nothing at all but the sweetness of being herself.

Incredible and intense drama. Second viewing and loved it. A few of us be discussing the play soon.
Chapter 7, The Little Prince ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Agreed. As much as I loved the other films by Shyamalan, I thought The Happening a bit of a disappointment.
Last night, I watched The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Having read the incredibly inspiring book, a memoir written by man who sustained a brain stem CVA/stroke (quite possibly the worst place to have one), and ended up with a rare condition called 'locked-in syndrome.' I will not spoil how, but almost entirely paralyzed, yet fully capable of thought, he wrote the memoir, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, this film based upon it, of course.
Beautiful, beautiful!
10/10
