    I re-watched "Kindergarden Cop" and had a little fun again.

    6/10!

    I love that movie! I haven't seen it in a while though.

    Last movie I haven't seen a zillion times- Legion.
    zero on every scale. Acting= mediocre at best
    Plot= plot?
    There's enough zombie movies out there. Someone thought they'd be original and make God the bad guy. Of course, Gabriel makes an appearance in all his bulletproof glory. That was the only good part of the movie- there wasn't any talking in it. I guess it was kind of scary. A little kid possessed by an angel starts chasing a pregnant girl around with a knife saying "Don't be scared. I just want to play with your baby."
    zero point zero

    Oh I love that movie. Good escapism. It's quite fun and sweet.

    So it's not just me...good to know I am not alone. I don't even recognise half the movies being discussed anymore. Are most of them foreign films?

    Zombieland - 7/10 overall, 10/10 as far as zombie comedies go

    Zombieland was great for what it was... a silly zombie movie. Every once in a while, it is great to watch a movie without having to think at all... just be entertained by zombies being killed with banjos, garden shears, etc. I'm not a big fan of the so-called horror zombie movies, but I love me a good zombie comedy. I haven't laughed this much about zombies (killing or being killed) since Shaun of the Dead.

    Smile Emma

    The latest "Big Film EVent" for me was the new EMMA-Adaptation of JAne Austen´s novel by the BBC starring Romola Garai and Johnny Lee Miller. It is so great, funny, moving, entertaining. One of the best Period Dramas I have ever seen. (Well, and I have seen many.)

    I would've given it more than 7. I saw this over Thanksgiving with the male side of my family, and thought I would hate it, but found it to be one of the funniest movies I saw all year. Bill Murray makes that movie for me

    District 9

    4/10 Being a person who's greatly interested in aliens, I thought I would have loved this film. The surprise was - I didn't. The conflict between aliens and humans were pointless and absurd. There were scenes that were supposed to be exciting and action-packed but I yawned through them. And this was a Peter Jackson film. Is there something wrong with me?

    The Orphan

    5/10 The actress who played the Orphan was enigmatic. The plot was enough to keep me hooked but overall, the film was forgettable.


    On another note, I'm looking forward to watching Fight Club tomorrow evening.

    I saw the Orphan and there was something wrong with Esther. I probably won't forget that film. It was better than I thought it would be and most definitely disturbing. Not the best entertainment admittedly but it was okay.

    Heh. I thought Orphan was great. One of the best horror movies I've seen in a long time.

    Esther was definitely disturbing and I liked how her history was presented in the latter part of the film. I was literally going in one scene where she dressed up like an adult and tried to hit on her Dad. Haha, but, idk, some other scenes were a little cliched.

    Aww, I'm sorry if you feel that way, Janine. I swear that if one of the films you posted are somewhat familiar to me, then I won't hesitate to reply or strike a conversation.

    Fight Club 10/10 !!

    Fight Club is such an insanely brilliant and darkly twisted film. Great plot and powerful performances by Brad Pitt and Edward Norton. Peppered with unforgettable dialogues, this film has a lot of subtexts and broadens your perspective on modern society. It's beyond anything I have ever seen.

    Perfume: The Story of a Murderer

    7/10

    Originally a novel by Patrick Süskind, the film Perfume is about an olfactory genius, Grenouille who is obsessed in mixing and producing the best scent.
    The only flaw I could probably note in the movie was the character development of Richis (played by Alan Rickman) and her daughter Laura. I felt that their connection was rather weak.
    But aside from that, I found the movie to be poetic, subtly moving and visually powerful.

    Saw the 1994 movie "Dreamlover" with James Spader, directed by Elia Kazan's son.

    very good acting and good plot, you know what's bound to happen, but when it does, you're completely caught up in it. Would make a terrific play ! I'd recommand it if you like femme fatale movies.

    7/10
    Charm is the name of a beauty ignoring its own power.

    On the sea, beneath it, in the air, and in all the parts of most of the lands, I have gone a-hunting in quest neither of fame nor of fortune, but the vindication of the act of living.
