"Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World."
Not a particularly "great" movie by most standards, but I thoroughly enjoyed myself. 7.8/10

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not.
robin hood - piece of crap. ridley scott, burn in amateur midget gay porn movies' hell.
the main idea with the books is that there are too many not worthy to be read.
A River Runs Through It - Redford's early-20th C Americana.
Not bad, but missed the urine on the floor in the gritty jail scene (digitally deleted) which had been in the original issue of the film.
Wordsworth's Ode (on Intimations of Immortality) is nicely quoted in the film.
The Act of Seeing with One's Own Eyes - I will never be able to see this film again. Ever, ever. It is the "bluntest statement about death" in all of cinema according to Jonathan Rosembaum. And my God, it is. Talk about a deconstruction of the idea of life, the soul, death, the body. This film will haunt me for the rest of my life.

Ok, so I have kids and the last Movie I watched was "Aliens in the Attic"It was cute. Definitely better than I thought it was going to be. Made me Laugh a couple of times. I would give it a 6/10. For me, If I was rating it for something that you were wanting your kid to watch I would say 8/10.
Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised. No barrier of the senses shuts me out from the sweet, gracious discourses of my book friends. They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness.

I just watched Gaspar Noé's Enter the Void a couple of nights ago as a midnight movie. 10/10. I was blown away. It's very dark and disturbing and completely original and tense and hypnotizing. Incredible experience. I can't wait to see it again in the next couple of days. I get chills just thinking about sitting 6th row center at the Nuart Theater and seeing the opening credits begin to attack me.
I watched Robin Hood (the latest one, with Russel Crowe) a couple of adays ago, but I can't really pass any good judgement on it, since I wasn't feeling all that well. From what I did get in my somewhat confused state of mind, it was quite good, I'd say about 8/10.
"This is our birthplace though, this is what we deserted long ago. This is where we used to live, on balls of dust and rock like this. This is our hometown from before we felt the itch of wanderlust, the sticks we inhabited before we ran away from home, the cradle where we were infected with the crazy breath of the place's vastness like a metal wind inside our love-struck heads; just stumbled on the scale of whats around and tripped out drunk on starlike possibilities."
I watched Fried Green Tomatoes last week. Very skillfully movie which has two separate stories woven into one hell of a film. I would rate it 9/10
Before sunlight can shine through a window, the blinds must be raised - American Proverb
The Losers - It's your run of the mill action flick. I need to find me one of those go Petunia T-Shirts. 7.5/10
Do, or do not. There is no try. - Yoda
The Ghostwriter - 10/10 - It was great. The acting was very good and I especially loved the dark atmosphere throughout the film, and of course the (for me) very surprising ending!
The last movie I watched was My Sister's Keeper with Cameron Diaz and Jason Patric. They shouldn't be allowed to make movies this sad. It's about a family. The oldest daughter, Kate, has Leukemia and her younger sister was conceived as a donor match. The movie does not follow linear time and it seems to be broken into different segments for each family member's point of view. If you cry easily and are embarrassed of it then I would recommend watching it alone, and if you must watch it with someone and don't want to cry in front of him or her then you should get up and go to the bathroom or make more popcorn when this song comes on:

"...if you weren't smart enough to get a pedophile in a dress to put a small amount of water on the child’s forehead, then what the eff did you think was going to happen?
Antichrist.
Well, i did not get into the mood of the movie.
Clash of the Titans - an all action, special effects bonanza that was a load of rubbish. I don't know who writes these screenplays, but the pathetic attemps to modernise the Greek Myths was painful. It was all about liberty - again - liberty from the Gods this time. It really grated, and all I could think was - "that's not in the story " that's not what I remember" etc etc. Don't watch it Kyriakos - you'll bust the telly.

the matrix... again, saw it about a hundred times a few years ago and now again for school, always good and seeing it again and doing some research I find a lot deeper and confusing than before.

Personally, I think that the unique and supreme delight lies in the certainty of doing 'evil'–and men and women know from birth that all pleasure lies in evil. - Baudelaire
