just so we are clear. i gave it a .5/10 not 5/10. you must had loved it!

dint see that "." there
No but i did think it was funny.At times that is.

The latest Movie I saw was "The Other Guys" with Will Farrell and Mark Walberg. I thought the first half of the movie was hilarious, but I felt like they were trying to hard in the second half. I'd rate it a 7/10. The "Tuna" scene is hysterical. :P

The Ring - Was a pretty good movie.Was not really scary or gross but no movie ever is for me.It was more about seeing the story develop.Do not get me wrong, The movie has its suspenseful moments.8/

Seven words : The Exorcist,The Thing (remake) and Audition. :shutup::sick:

Some would add Dawn of the Dead ( the original) and HauteTension but for me both are too over the top to be really effective.

Please limit the ratings to out of 10 please .

I have been venturing further into photography (lighting mainly, atm) and found Baraka (1992) to be quite stunning and certainly in the realm of my recent interests. The movie itself is without words, and does not tell a story (conventionally), but there is plenty to put together as a message of the human condition (or whatever you choose to see in it). It is like watching 90 minutes of the best National Geographic pictures you have ever seen. Give it a watch in the highest definition available to you. Fascinating and beautiful. It stands alone, so I won't lessen it with a number rating. However, I believe it is worth purchasing.

Princess and the Frog... hated it...4/10

Harsh Times - I wonder what the hell Christian Bale was thinking.Its not that the movie is bad but, Its not what i expected from the Batman, Terminator star.A very different film for him. - 7/10

When he was younger he was still trying to be ( or allowed to be) more the actor and less the star.
Btw if you think that was "different" wait until this comes out. Not only drug addicted incarcerated loser but also (gasp) second banana to Marky Mark.

True story( more or less) too.

American Psycho was "different", also...

And the Machinist.

Pont ( besides your head) being that at some point the public ( or Ziggy or "Hollywood" or Bale himself) started getting this skewed perpective that Bale was another "Arnold"

Machete (2010) was worth watching. It was exactly what it was supposed to be- violent, cheezy, macho, filled with stars who would normally be "above" that level of film. There is also a strong pro-Mexican/Mexican-American theme to the show. Timing is perfect for such a rally call, imo. Good fun, with an underlying stance. 7.5/10 for what it was meant to be.

Hes very diverse i see.
The Machinist looks sweet.Will check out.

Toy Story 3 last night. It was pretty good, bringing back the old memories :)

Jekyll and Hyde Together Again it was a hoot....

The Traveller - thought it was pretty crap

The Machinist - This movie is right up my alley.It reminds me of requiem for a dream or donnie darko.Not for style but for weirdness.7/10 - would have been 8 but the music is just meh...

Amazing what they can do with CG isn't it?

What do you mean Idoleyes?

I mean the computer guys did a great job on making Bale look so thin.
Almost as good a job as they did making DeNiro look fat for Raging Bull.
Technology is a beautiful thing.:yup:

He looks like a real life crack head.Who could have guessed he was crazy?

The CGI on Raging Bull was waaay ahead of its time. I think DeNiro looked far more realistic than Jar Jar Binks.

It really wasn't until Brando kept asking for more, and more CGI that it got overplayed. Kinda like the explosions in action movies today. You see one enormous CGI (fat guy) explosion, you've scene 'em all... What's next, big fake breasts? :no:

Get him to the Greek. Awesome Comedy for me. 8/10 . Love this movies <3

Scrap Heaven(2005)

"The lives of three people intersect on a late bus ride that's hijacked by a suicidal political flunky. Shingo is a miserable young desk cop bucking for homicide division. Tetsu is a restroom cleaning attendant who has a mentally ill father and a penchant for mischief. And Saki is a petulant druggist/chemist who was born without an eye and keeps her disfigurement hidden behind shades. Months after the hijacking, the trio lives re-intertwine as they playfully seek revenge for their unhappy lives, until the games become deadly serious".

Described by some as a Japanese Fight Club .Certainly there are echos of that movie,especially in the terrific first hour,as there are similar characters and fights and both are on the surface at least about reality confronting fantasy . Scrap Heaven however then takes a decided right turn and becomes much more bleak and serious.

Overall a decent movie at turns exciting,funny and sad.Not as thought provoking as the director had obviously hoped for but a "cool" and (mostly)entertaining movie worth a watch nonetheless.

Sorry about the poor quality of the video the better one is unfortunately only in Japanese.

didn't that movie bomb?.

the last movie i watched was shutter island and it was mind blogging
i liked the climax :)

Watched Fight Club for the second time last night. Have to say it's one of those movies that really effect your life.

I noticed some things I didn't notice in the first viewing. I noticed that Tyler flickered in scenes. He only flickered at certain points in the film. I can't really put it into words but it's a certain emotion The Narrator is feeling.

If anyone recalls "The Narrator" was explaining about inserting penises in the cinema - You know you saw it but didn't take any notice.

Fight Club is a very cleverly written movie from beginning to end.

David Fincher is a genius: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000399/
