Body of Lies - A competent thriller but nothing special. Good performance from DiCaprio but Russell Crowe annoyed me.
Gran Torino - Finally got around to watching this and loved it. Eastwood is really great, though he kind of reminded me of Hank Hill |
My Bloody Valentine: 3d (Except the theater only showed it in 2D when we went.)
Wow was this ridiculous. It would have been better if I would have went when they were still showing it in 3d. All these other people in the theater were getting upset at me and my sister who were sitting toward the back. We just kept exclaiming "Ahhhhh, this would be in 3D right now!" I did really enjoy the way the flick opened too. |
I watched the live action version of Devilman and it fucking sucked and was one and a half hours too long. :(
|
Bad times, usually live action versions of things are terrible. I remember watching a live studio version of Cutey Honey before. :(
|
Ugh. :(
|
Max Payne :(
|
Well here's 3 movies I just watched. Story of Ricky, Return of the Living Dead, and just finished Mallrats.
|
I liked Return2 when they have the Zoombies running down the street.
|
Pineapple Express. It was a big chunk of mediocre pot-comedy interrupted by hilarious Borat-style fight scenes.
|
The more I watch that movie the less I like it, it's one of those films that are good to watch only once.
|
Paul Blart: Mall Cop - I'm one of those crazy people that actually quite liked King of Queens and think that Kevin James is pretty funny, even when he's in completely shit films like Chuck and Larry. As such I was willing to check out Paul Blart: Mall Cop despite it's dubious reviews and I'm glad I did. It's certainly not breaking any new ground so far as comedy goes and there are some rather stupid elements to the film but overall I enjoyed it.
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist - Again I watched this film purely for the fact that I like Michael Cera. It reminded me a lot of Lost in Translation to be honest, which is good because I like Lost in Translation. I think it's a slightly better film than Juno, but that could just be because I don't like Ellen Page. Cera's performane is as good as usual. I don't know what it is he does but he has some strange ability to make lines like "I promise you sir, this is not a taxi" hilarious. Anyway, it's worth a watch. |
We watched Friday the 13th part 2 last night.
It's hilarious how long they took to figure out what Jason was/did. Especially in Part 2 where he gets kicked in the balls. The bf actually thought Jason X was called "Jason Goes to Space", which I like better because it puts a madcap muppet-caper spin on it. |
I like Kevin James, he stand up show has funny too. I'm sure mall cop is just fine on a lazy day.

Religulous. Funny and thought provoking; I'm always impressed by Bill Maher's broad knowledge of many religions. But it's a preaching to the choir type ordeal. If you agree you'll like it; if you don't you won't and would likely dismiss it sight unseen.

I watched nosferatu three times in a row :( IM SO LAME.
SO LAME. |
Man, Nosferatu is awesome :(
|
The Core again. You'd think I would just leave it alone by now.

Where the Buffalo Roam- I'm not sure whose Hunter S. Thompson I like better. I think Bill Murray's is better going on voice alone, but Johnny Depp was better with expressions and mannerisms. Both actors' attitude problems reputedly date to their character study of Hunter S. Thompson. Great writer and interesting guy overall, but he spawned this disease of wannabes who can't differentiate drugged-out insanity from pathetic deliberate wackiness.
American Splendor- I really like Harvey Pekar. Paul Giamotti was perfect for the role. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0akXKxbflM |
I have to finish watching American Splendor. I tried watching it with my ex-girlfriend and she fell asleep. We are no longer dating.
|
I indulged myself in Sleepaway Camp 2. It's a true cheese fest but that's what I'm looking for.
|
Teen Sex Comedy #2141 (Sex Drive) - Not the worst film ever with a few amusing parts but otherwise a by the numbers teen sex comedy.
|
Apocalypse Now: I'm no master of movie madness but I'm pretty sure this is the greatest movie ever made.
