Surprisingly the Last Movie You Saw Didn't Suck

I rewatched The Matrix trilogy this weekend. The first two films yesterday, and the third film today. I felt the same about the first film, awesome film, and its story stands alone, and didn't need any sequels. I wasn't looking forward to watching the sequels, but damn, they were fucking great. There was no 4 years of anticipation and hype, (and no eventual disappointment because the sequels dared to not be clones of the original film), between the first and second films, or 6 months of negativity between the second and third films. It just felt like one big seven hour epic story. I didn't find the sequels boring at all, they're action packed, and visual feasts. I'm sure other people have taken the time to rewatch the trilogy in the past six years, and appreciate (or hate) them more than they originally did, but I wish I didn't take so long, as now they're pretty much my second favorite film trilogy, after the Back to the Future trilogy.
 
Ponyo - Took my little sister to this. I thought it was pretty good. I mainly went because it's been a long time since there was an actual animated movie in theaters. For the past few years all we've gotten is CG garbage.
 
Children of Men - not as good as I was hoping. pretty cliche ending, I saw it coming from a mile away. the most interesting parts were the post-apocalyptic/facist England bits.
 
The Hurt Locker - 10/10

Great stuff. I don't think you can go wrong with this kind of movie. It reminded me of Generation Kill (Which I miss a lot...). Loved the humor.

Need to watch the Smurfs or something now though...
 
Repo Man - Holy sheep shit how is it that I have never seen this movie before tonight? A must see for anyone that enjoys fucked up, left field dark comedies.

Yes! That movie is all kinds of awesome. Have you seen Street Trash? So awesome.

Years ago I saw part of it but I don't remember much about it, added to my netflix queue.
 
Julie & Julia was decent for a chick flick.

Funny People was good. It is up and down throughout with funny moments sprinkled in here and there.

I was thinking of checking it out tomorrow. Looks incredibly stupid, but unlike GI Joe, intentionally so.[/QUOTE]

I saw it, it was pretty good for a comedy.

Just saw W., what a shitty movie.
 
The Girlfriend Experience - 3/5 - Left me with some questions and it ends abruptly. Sasha Grey can act so thats $$$.

Chopping Mall - 2/5 - amazing title, some funny moments but overall lack of creativity in kills and story made it a snoozefest.

Bad Dreams - 3/5 - average horror film. You get a few laughs. Some decent gore but most importantly the story moves along well. It also has Bruce Abbott from Re-Animator which is reason enough to watch it. hell yea!

All kidding aside. Damn, I didn't know she was in any real films. Isn't she trying to become a star actress or something?

not sure. To be fair, A lot of Girlfriend Experience is improv to make it feel more natural. There is one shot which made me think of her differently. It was single shot conversation between Sasha Grey and Chris Santos which lasted 6-8minutes. Long shots are definitely not easy.
I think she said in an interview she wants to do both adult and feature films. I believe she has done another film a Canadian slasher called Smash Cut. Hopefully it goes well for her. At the very least I wouldn't mind seeing her get stabbed in my crappy horror movies.

Hasn't she been stabbed enough? :lol:;)
 
Saw District 9 last night. I loved it.

I don't usually see a lot of movies in theatres, but I've seen some quality films recently, with Away We Go, 500 Days of Summer, and District 9. Very pleased.
 
Anybody seeing The Marc Pease Experience tomorrow?

I'm already going to see IB, just never saw anything about that Ben Stiller comedy til now.

You have to admit the robots were really well done. A movie with no budget made that long ago with actual robots they built is pretty impressive. Other than that, you're right on it being pretty boring. The head explosion was the best part.
 
Hurt Locker - 4/5 - pretty good film. very suspenseful but has its flaws. The motivation for James to do the things he does kept flipping between being an adrenaline junkie to being humane. With him doing one thing just for the kicks and the other because he has a heart made it feel a little off. Also its a long film. Dunno if it needed
to last after the specialist got shot and helicoptered off, at the very least have him go home the end. I dont think it needed the whole family part then him going back because its the one thing he loves

That being said, 500 days of summer was my favorite film of the summer, second hurt locker, third d9.

Duplicity (2009)

Clive Owen and Julia Roberts star as a pair of corporate spies, who share a romantic past, hook up to pull off the ultimate con job on their respective bosses. It's the second film directed and written by Tony Gilroy, who's debut feature was 2007's Michael Clayton. It has its problems, a case of "too many twists", and Julia Roberts basically just playing Julia Roberts, but overall I did enjoy it. Paul Giamatti and Tom Wilkinson are good supporting characters, as the bosses of the rival companies that Owen and Roberts are working for. I imagine a lot of people won't like the ending, and combining that with Julia Roberts lack of originality in her acting skills, and releasing it so close to Clive Owen's last film, The International, (The International was released in February, Duplicity was released in March), are what hurt this film at the box office. The International is a better film, but if you can't get enough of Clive like me, this film might be worth your time too.
 
Inglorius Basterds - Worth seeing, very much like Pulp Fiction.
(500) Days of Summer - Loved it, everything people say about this movie holds water.
Band Slam - Very well written w unexpected happenings.
