    I've seen that too. Good film. Its strange to think how some parts of the world still view abortions like that.

    Saw 'The Road' this weekend. I may be biased because i read the book but it was great. Very grim though :)

    I saw Daybreakers and Sherlock Holmes over the weekend.

    I liked Sherlock Holmes a lot. I thought it was a fun action type movie that kept me into it the entire time.

    Daybreakers was okay. I was hoping it would have been a little better but it just felt a little lacking. Worth seeing if you like those types of movies. Probably more of a rental then a must see in the theatre for me though.

    We saw Sherlock Holmes and Avatar at the weekend.

    Sherlock Holmes was good, a really fun movie.
    Avatar in 3D was stunning but we couldn't help giggling when we looked at each other with those ridiculous glasses. 300 Roy Orbisons all sitting there together.

  • saw Holmes at cinema. nice movie, action, cool actors.. worth seeing

    finally saw Moon at home.. great film without a doubt, of course reminded of Kubrik's Odyssey, but easier to watch :lol: One of the best films of 2009 for me (after Avatar and Basterds). Had a wonderful dream the night after, inspired by the movie.. love all that space stuff.
  • I just saw Avatar. Thumbs down.

    Saw this last weekend and I'm STILL trying to figure out if it was one of the best movies I've ever seen or one of the worst! Definitely different, that's for sure...

    So I finally saw Sherlock Holmes last night. It was decent. Kinda a combination of From Hell, Prestige, and The Crow.

    I watched Crazy Heart with Jeff Bridges this weekend. There is no doubt it's a good film. He was a natural fit for the part.

    However if you have watched The Wrestler in the past, simply take Mickey Rourke out, add Jeff Bridges. Take Marissa Tomei as a stripper out and add Maggie Gyllenhaal as a reporter. Then substitute musician for wrestler and you're done!

    "Role Models" on HBO is a riot! Just saw that as well as "The Hangover" and "Extract" and it was funnier then both!

    just watched the boys are back last night. really good. bit of a tear jerker. :cry: clive owen was awesome. also watched sherlock holmes the other night. if you go into it with an open mind, looking no more than to be entertained....it's just fine. if you want more than that, yea...you'll be disappointed. i love robert downey jr. and jude law.....and mark strong is quickly becoming a favorite of mine, so you, i'd see just about anything with any of these 3 in it. tonight, bright star is on the agenda. jame campion flick about poet john keats and his love, fanny brice.
    Stay with me...

    Well I'm pretty sure I saw the worst movie in a loooong time, called The Room. Some of my friends had a screening of this in Delaware. An independent film in '03 but looked like it was from '89. Horrible acting and directing, but funny to laugh at. MST3K would be perfect for this film (which apparently they have done it on Rifftraxx) I would watch it again though. Here's the trailer:

  • No Country For Old Men

    Javier the Mexican was the best part of the movie.

    Spoiler Alert.........












    How do they make a movie where the premise is a guy tracking another guy who found his $2 Million, and then not devote any time to the part of the movie where he finally catches him and gets it back? There's like a 3 second clip of him getting shot. Then, as Tommy Lee Jones eats toast in a fucking single wide trailer, the movie ends abruptly. What was he even doing in the movie? What the fuck did his character add? And I like Tommy Lee Jones....

    Anyway, I give this movie 2 thumbs up......my ass.

    thats so movie critics sit around with their heads up their asses and claim its genius when its not. lets make a awesome movie, and the twist is...we skip the climax and instead it just ends! brilliant!

    Just watched '13 Tzameti'. Brilliant movie. It starts off quite slow but then becomes pretty mental as it turns into a Russian roulette competition/gambling match.
    It was released in 2005.

    Anyone else seen it?

    From Wiki:
    (Don't read the Wiki article in it's entirety if you don't want a spoiler)

    Reception

    The film has an 84% approval rating of critics tracked by Rotten Tomatoes, which described the critical consensus as "this starkly minimalist nail-biter of a thriller relentlessly builds up the tension and keeps the audience guessing."

    Awards

    The film won the World Cinema Jury Prize at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival. It also won two awards at the 62nd Venice Film Festival.

    Remake


    An American remake of the film is currently in production,[4] but Babluani intends to "change a lot of the storyline" to avoid merely reshooting the original film. He has also indicated that he intends to shoot the remake in color (screening at the University of Notre Dame, 23 Feb 2007). The film will star Mickey Rourke, Ray Winstone, Jason Statham, Sam Riley, 50 Cent, and Ray Liotta.[4]
