A brief into: I am a movie freak, seen so many that I thought most of the ones that were released before august were last year lol

I wrote alot of the comments as jokes, but used this symbol :excl: as a quick star instead...so enjoy, laugh, and feel free to post reviews for movies I missed, its late and im too lazy to look up anymore that I have seen so far. Ill add more in the next few days including a few limited release movies.
here is a link to all movies released to theaters this past year:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_in_film

Movies with this: :frusty: are just so bad...

*explanation of heartbreak kid: I watched this with my girlfriend, and we just were so frustrated with it because the mistakes he would make were sooo bad that noone in real life would ever do that, it just went a little too far, if it didnt try to choke my laughter out of me, it would have been decent...but it was just too pathetic
*I am Legend: This movie didnt live up to the hype, didnt follow the orig at all, basically was will smith walking around for 1 hour and 15 minutes, then the rest of the movie was decent action. The movie ended the same way the Mist did, pretty f'ing lame if you ask me. All the good stuff was in the previews for it.

Is this only for Hollywood movies, or are Asian movie reviews allowed?

I kinda left the mainstream Hollywood movies behind and have grown a huge interest in Asian movies.
In my opinion some of the Asian movies are way ahead of the Hollywood movies, I guess that's why
a lot of movies are remaked in Hollywood!

Fantasic four: silver surfer could of been better. I made a hip-hop album off of silver surfer. Called "Silver Surfer Chronicles volume 1 and 2. Anyways i seen probably about all of them. 300, the kingdom and transformer tops the list of best movies in 2007

The ending to "War" was horrible. Yea Jet Li was ill though. I'm still waiting for Jet Li and Jackie Chan to star in a movie together. I have all their old kung-fu films from the 70's.

I see you gave The Bourne Ultimatum a good review. I been wanting to watch it but the guys at work were saying how bad it sucked when they went to watch it in the theatres. I will take your word for it and watch it sometime this week.

I think a good combonation in a movie would be Jet Li and Tony Jaa (Ong Bak/Protector)
Only problem would be it only being a ahort film instead of full length movie because alone they kick ass in a room full of 25 plus people. Together they can clear out a full soccer stadium.
Speaking of soccer have you seen the movie Green Street Hooligans with Frodo from lord of the rings. I been wanting to watch that too since I have it just laying around.
