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

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.

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.
