It's either a post-modern masterpiece... or a complete pile of shit. It really depends on whether an "existential day-in-the-life portrait that immerses the viewer in the downtown mindsets of John Wall (Keanu Reeves), a lost soul who's been circling the New York City drain for too long, and the two party girls he spends his birthday with as they look for light in the darker aspects of their "family of circumstance" and the paths their self-destructive lives have taken" is going to be your kind of film.
Personally I kinda liked it... although I can't quite figure out why...
“Do not postpone happiness”
(Jeff Tweedy, Sydney 2007)
I enjoyed it. It was good. The gambler on the other hand....I stopped watching it about an hour into the movie. I like Mark wahlberg, but they can't all be winners.
I just watched some crazy film called In Time. Absolutely insane concept!! But it was watchable.. Kept me entertained while I was stuck sick in bed for the Week.
Regarding In Time, the concept is great. The movie itself is pretty bad. Too bad they messed that one up. It could have been really good! And Justin Timberlake is fairly awesome, so it was a waste of him too.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

This was my first thought as well, but I only watched it the one time, and I had had fairly high expectations for the movie. So I wonder if I wouldn't enjoy it more on a second watch. You know how it is with movies you were looking forward to which weren't as mind blowing as you were expecting - you get kinda mad at them and just reject it outright. I might have to give it a second watch.

Saw American Sniper last night. Thought it was pretty good. I didn't love it, but still thought it was a pretty solid movie. Bradley Cooper was awesome in it.
I just watched Grand Budapest Hotel. I wasn't sure what was going on at the start, but all in all...great movie. I enjoyed it.
ill watch it on monday..good news is great

I just watched Grand Budapest Hotel. I wasn't sure what was going on at the start, but all in all...great movie. I enjoyed it.
Grand Budapest Hotel was the last movie I watched and I was surprised how much I liked it. Before that was Imitation Game and I didn't love it - check out Breaking the Code, a TV movie based on the same subject. Much better.
Comments
one of the favorite movies of the past couple of years.
Going in 1 1/2 hrs. I hope it doesn't make me feel shitty after, I mean it looks real good but sometimes these heavy films wear on you.
I'll chime in with my thoughts later or tomorrow.

I loved this film, Bradley Cooper is great as usual. So was Sienna Miller.
Great portrayal of War's affect on those fighting on the front lines and their family back home.
Highly recommend , probably my favorite of the year

Oh wow, that sounds really good. Thanks for the review. I'll post my thoughts, too.

Saw Odd Thomas. Enjoyed it more than I expected even though it was goofy. Sad ending.
I've seen this many times but I talked my kids into watching it and they thought it was very funny.
