    I saw inglorious basterds today and it was okay a little long and a bit underwhelming if you ask me.

    i liked it. was a bit long at 2.5 hours, but it didn't feel like it dragged. it was fun, funny, witty, creative.

    i also watched District 9. very dissapointing. i thought it was going to be alot better than what actuallly was. the characters had no depth. very predictable story

    there must be two versions of this movie, because i wasn't forced to think at all. i could have been so much better.

    I really enjoyed it. Two thumbs up! Long but I never was thinking 'when will this be over.'

    Public Enemies - didn't live up to some overated reviews.
    HP 6 - probably one of the most boring films ever made.
    Time Travellers Wife - enjoyed it.
    Seeing Inglourious Basterd in 2 days

    Looking forward to "The Hurt Locker" and "The Soloist"

    I also really enjoyed it, I thought the 2.5 hours went by rather quickly. The actors who played Hans and Shoshanna were excellent, I had never seem them before and was really impressed. Brad and the Basterds brought some comic relief to the film, I think some people thought the whole movie would be them bashing Nazis so they might be disappointed it wasn't.

    great film ... christopher waltz was kick ass as hans landa ... like most tarantino movies - the film actually hinges on the dialogue and mood ... with 3 primary languages being spoken, i can see many not feeling a flow to the film ...

    Inglorious Basterds was very enjoyable. Knowing it was "long" to begin with helps a lot! The movie at parts is paced very slowly, but I think that was intentional. I recommend this movie.
    ADD 5,200 to the post count you see, thank you. :)

    I thought it was kind of corny. I just saw the Time Traveler's Wife. I liked it more then I thought I would. It was kind of unbelievable.

    we just saw TTW this weekend. i'm still listening to the audio book, but i kind of put it away now that i saw the movie. the movie needed to explain more.

    Yes, I agree with you. There seemed to some holes. I want to read the book to see if it explains things better. I wanted to download it on my kindle but alas it's not available on the kindle. :x

    9
    it is 09/09/09 & 9 comes out today. But my movie theatre is not showing it at 9pm :evil:

    Ah oh well either way i'm excited to see this. It is a short movie only 80 minutes long. I've read some bad reviews, but i want to keep an open mind i hope it is cool!

    We saw District 9 this weekend and we liked it too, (me, hubby & son (he passes for 15)). Someone else mentioned about thinking/not thinking about the movie, I guess I thought during the film, how people are with other people/races/creatures. Anyway like it, thinks it's no 1 in film charts in UK at the mo.
