What is the latest movie you watched and what did you think of it?

Sherlock Holmes was a romping good time.

Uptown girl--boring

Sherlock Holmes, it wasn't bad although I couldn't understand half the stuff they were saying cause of their phony British accents.

Planet 51
5.5/10

Amelia (2009) - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1129445/

Zombieland was entertaining but not as good as Shaun of the Dead.

:shuriken:

Triangle 8/10

Not meaning to pick on you senegal but we went over this all before. An isolated numerical rating with no way of knowing what that actually might represent to you is next to pointless .

Gone Baby 7/10 .Behind Enemy Lines 2/10. London Kills Me 6/10 .Chungking Express 8.5/10. See even as a group it tells you nothing about the movies and next to nothing about how I actually felt about those films.

Stop picking on senegal, Evileyes.

I find his concise, discriminating dissections to be most compelling and refreshing. I hang on his every number.

Like a dingleberry.

Mulholland Dr. easily worthy of the 8.0 it has on IMDB. Great show. Every scene had something interesting in it. Some scenes were VERY interesting- makes me wish there was an unrated version floating around. Watts always sparkles in here roles; I was amazed that Harring wasn't able to really make more of a career than she has. The two "together" was freakin' hawt...

I may be the last person on earth to see this for the first time, but I do highly recommend the film for those who like to sit and figure things out after the show is over. The clues are there.

2012 - 720p

Saw Se7en yesterday! Great movie, the second time I see it. The end always suprises me.

:console: Cheer up, Idol. One of them is actually a movie. Hi-def even... And do you really want to read a review of 2012? :sick: <= There, got it in one.

Last movie I saw was 2012. The effects were great but the dialogue between the characters was so lame. I'll give 5/10.

Law Abiding Citizen - good movie, but the end could be better.

The men who stare at Goats - Pure Garbage. I rated it 1/10.

I thought it was overly corny and boring.

zomg thank u. i figured i'd be the only one. movie was total trash.

I recently saw Fish Tankhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt1232776/. I found it far more realistic and telling of the times than any of the "reality tv" crap that has been going around over the past few years. This is a British movie and I have to say they seem to be putting out some watchable films lately. Harry Brown was also worthy of a viewing...

The IMDB tag says something about 15 year old Mia's life suddenly changes when her mother gets a new boyfriend. While this is true, it only covers one facet of this movie's range. TBH, I had to give it a second though before watching it as I have come across too many American movies that have a similar plot line and FAIL to go any further. Fortunately, I found this movie more about starting life with strikes against you and the things we do to move forward. Something like that anyway.

I say give it a shot. It is at least a 7.5 and maybe deserves higher for having such a real, yet uncomfortable feel to it. There are a couple VERY uncomfortable parts, BTW.

Another one:

Just finished watching Let the Right One In http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1139797/ . Very good, understated, yet powerful film. A conservative 8.5, IMO. It's a Swedish vampire movie that is more fantasy/drama than gore. The special effects are subtle, but used appropriately.

Sherlock Holmes- RDJ and some other people.

[disclaimer] I am firmly on Team Jeremy Brett and consider his Holmes the standard by which all others be judged. [/disclaimer]

Oh my, another "reimagining" of of a classic character.
In this case the reboot consists of amping up the 'sposhins, loud obtrusive music and grafting in the personal dynamics of Felix and Oscar from The Odd Couple.

Missing from this modern Holmes are all the characteristics that make him unique and interesting.

Guy Ritchie tried to graft the hyper intensity of his modern crime movies (Snatch, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, etc.) and Downey's Tony Stark and douse the whole thing with a bit of Olde England for flavor.

Couple this with a plot that depends on stage tricks that would embarrass David Blaine and what you get is at best, half baked.
And not in a good way.

Much like Public Enemies, I really wanted to like Sherlock Holmes but sadly, did not.
So much potential squandered by laziness and a blockbuster mentality.

State Of Play- blah, blah, Bill Nighy!, that guy from Wanted.
This is the BBC production that the recent film with Russell Crowe was based on and is superior in every way...what a surprise.

Not in the same league as Prime Suspect or Cracker, State of Play still displays the rich production values, great casting choices and careful script development that epitomize BBC halo productions.
This six episode series differs from an American production in that each episode is a full hour and there is no "Previously on..." recap at the beginning.
Each show begins right where the previous ended, so you'd better be paying attention or you'll be lost quickly.

State Of Play is an excellent six hour investment.
It has BillfuckinNighy in it.
Nuff said.

I've saw "Eurotrip" for the 6th time :lol:. It's a amazing and funny movie. I just love it !

After viewing the trailers I couldn't bear to even attempt to watch it.Some things are meant to be overblown and others , as Holmes himself might obverse , are all in the details.

Interesting article here about the negative effect blockbusters have on smaller films ....not that anyone is interested

http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/movies/sundance/article/756289--howell-the-company-men-a-fine-film-the-studios-wouldn-t-make

I watched Undead by The Spierigs the brothers behind the recent Daybreakers.Thought that it would be a lot better/more interesting than it was.
Total lack of sense and poor design/FX ( other than the gore) made me regret sticking with it to the end.
Some OK humour but more a direct copy of the type pioneered by Sam Raimi and Peter Jackson ( and used to greater effect in the much better Shaun of the Dead a movie that it clearly aspires to) than anything new.

All in all I'd recommend steering clear even if you are totally bored.

latest one was "Avatar"

Up on the air

Seriously no one cares simply to hear what movie you watched just as no one cares what I watched, the fucking whole point ( read the fucking title ) is "what is your opinion of the fucking movie"?

I would tell you but since it's exclusive to that site, I'd have to kill you if I did.

Could I get an invite then? I've got a speed test and proofs that I can PM you.

Sure but I first have to contact a mod to conduct a little background check to make sure you haven't any dupe accounts, previously banned accounts, proxied IP's, etc. Standard procedure , nothing to worry about. I'll get back to you in a bit.

Edit: Oh wait I'm sorry I just checked up on the rules at the tracker in terms of inviting procedures, and they don't allow us to give out invites in public :unsure:. Sorry bud.

Not even if I moped about a bit and then to accentuate it posted a picture of a sad puppy?

Surely it's OK to do it then?

Just saw Pineapple Express a few days ago and thought it was hilarious.

Sorry my account is too valuable to risk on the likes of people who think this board is simply just another place to spam unrelated nonsense.

Try to post more productively in the future, and I might *privately* approach you at some point. Good things happen to those who wait.

One day I hope that I will be mature enough to join your site so that I too can post on the "rate that ass" thread.:(

Personally I prefer the "Rate the chick next door" thread better but maybe that's just me.

Snatch.

Awesome movie :)

E.t. 10/10

You'd think they'd get the point by now.
