The one where a bunch of people are sequestered in a house and the object is to see who can be the biggest fame whore.
Sort of like the Kardashians except for the sequestering part.

just finished watching identity . and it was a real dark film literally.
the movie wasn't bad in places and the motel shot at the start of the film reminded me of bates motel.overall i would give it a 7/10 rating
21 Gramms. Quite a mediocre story slightly enhanced through the use of clever editing, which allowed the director to create a vague intrigue. I'd give it a meh 5.5/10.

I finally got around to see Due Date as it was on cable and I apparently don't steal anything anymore.
Anyway I was pleasantly surprised as it was a lot better than I thought it would be.
Sure there is only the barest bones of a story and the ending is by far the worst part of the whole thing but before that there are many truly funny scenes with (shockingly ) enough nuance to make me feel the writer actually cared about what was happening onscreen.
I actually thought it (Due Date) was better than the oft praised The Hangover. Possibly because Robert Downey is both a better actor and infinitely more likable that Bradley Cooper.
If you take the movie for what it is, a collection of pretty funny stuff and don't look to hard for either sense or story then Due Date isn't half bad at all.

Got to Watch Man from No where, a korean flick. Nice movie, nothing that stands out thou. Koreans make great Villains, its like its in their blood to look badass. And I don't know if its me or not, but whenever I watch Japanese, Chinese or similar Asian flicks; the people acting in it fall into exactly two categories: They are beautiful/handsome or they are not. There seems to be no middle ground there.

I watched The Siege http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133952/ again. Although naive in it's outrage that American forces took a suspected terrorist leader by force (since we all know about rendition now) the film is eerily prophetic about the motives of the terrorists in wanting to strike back at a country they saw as abandoning them when the political winds shifted.
Of course now we know that the plans of the terrorists can be far more elaborate than those in the scope of this film, yet it shows a series of terrorist attacks from both sides, and also goes deeper than just good versus evil, showing that the so called good can be evil. The movie is a clever moral play underneath the veneer of the action and is definitely one of Denzel Washington's better roles.

I saw it ( also again) recently and like you the thing that really struck me was that this was released a year before 9/11 and probably in pre-production for a couple of years prior to that.
Prophetic yes.Eerily prophetic I don't know as the American response of blind ethnic profiling detailed in the film dates back to the American-Japanese in WWII.
