What's the last movie you saw?

[Deaderinred]

Barney's Version - quite enjoyed it, a very nice mix of funny and goddamn depressing moments, can see it wining that makeup oscar its got nominated for, although the performance from paul giamatti was fantastic, seriously he should of got a oscar nomination, the rest of the cast are great too.

Rampage(Uwe Boll)

[MangaSpawn64]

Season of the Witch... liked it

[Hidavi]

Robert Deniro + James Franco = good.

[**G.I.BRO**]

Toy Story 3, very good flick. Had some great funny moments, but start to finish it was very strong.

[Cyko]

The Rite....Anthony Hopkins plays the possessed part well, but the rest of the movie blew

[JonZ]

Scott Pilgrim vs World. Was ok but I feel it came 15 years too late for me

[t0adp1p3]

king's speech- good movie, nothing special kinda like an english version of rocky but he's a stuttering english king and apollo creed is a wartime speech. 7/10
black swan- felt cheap too many plot points didn't add up, natalie portman was awesome but the movie was a disjointed mess. . 6/10

[DorXtar]

True Grit.

Honestly, I didn't think Jeff Pontoon sunk deep enough into his character. He was great vocally, but physically, he wasn't there. Too healthy-looking to portray someone living a hard life of liquor and hard tack.

Marion Duke did a better job of that because he was actually very unhealthy what with all those impacted feces in his colon.

[caveman-jim]

The A-Team. Great movie, not enough shooting.

[Tork64]

Due date, surprised I actually enjoyed it.

[shockwave]

127 hours, awesome movie.

[Deaderinred]

The Hurt Locker - dvd - Wow, really good movie with great acting directing and production with some brilliant tension building, a few of scenes were really really well shot (the shot with the taxi - bombsuit with gun was fantastic) the only thing i didn't like, which i hope gets phased out soon, is the annoying "documentary" style approach to some of the cinematography, its done well but i'm getting sick of seeing it to be honest other than that its really deserving of the awards it won.

I remember last year reading about all the people bitching about its awards win and today i checked imdb out to find people are still bitching over this movie calling it "overrated" and "boring piles of ****" and other insanities, clearly a mental hospital has just got internet access.

Can't say I agree with your assesment of the movie. It has one simple plot and it looks like you missed it.

So was she crazy to begin with and imagining people messing with her?
or
Was she sane and people were really messing with her?
or
Was she initially sane and driven crazy by the pressure and people messing with her?
or
Was she initially batshiat crazy and was just driven more batshiat crazy because of the pressure and people messing with her.

Either way you slice it, the movie felt contrived and dumb.

and yes i understood she was becoming the black swan.

It's Kind of a Funny Story.

It was alright. I had higher expectations for some reason. The soundtrack was really good, and the two young chicks in it were both hot.

Actually, it was pretty effin' stupid. Almost like a girl that didn't know anything about the subject was the director, like, the opposite of James Cameron.

Are you actually serious or just trolling, you know that makes no sense what so ever.

[DorXtar]

Makes all sorts of sense actually.

Two examples:

Character development is nonexistent. If you care about the characters by the end of the movie, yourrrrretaded. Characters are cliched, lacking depth and dimension. Their gritty surroundings are apparently all that is required to mask the film's shortcomings.

How can anyone explain the travesty that is the scene where junky mcbomby goes off-base by himself and has a useless encounter with some random family and returns to his base without getting dead.

May I suggest you familiarize yourself with the situation as it actually exists over there, and I'm no expert.

You sir, you've lost your edge.

You clearly didn't get the movie.

yup dumb me didn't get the movie, was obviously too deep and metaphoric for the likes of dumb old me.

you really have no idea why he went off the base? it was about the kid and the horror of what he thought had happen to the kid and how it was affecting him and its how he dealt with it by finding his family and trying to find out how/why the kids family let it happen. (which pays off in the later scene)

you got me at what its really like in the iraq situation, i did raise an eyebrow how he got back to base without a real incident but i didn't watch the film for a documentary on realism in war, so i didn't really care too much, i watched it for good filmmaking and story, the character depth is right there (at least with 3 main characters) but i admit its real easy to miss if your brain is turned off.

I enjoyed the movie as well. It was a bit depressing but I thought it was good. Some of the stuff (leaving the base and coming back) maybe unrealistic, but like you said it was a movie not a documentary.

Decent. Similar storyline to the more popular Knocked Up, but a better movie as far as that genre goes.

Dead Space Aftermath - same vibe as the first movie. Sick as **** but ****ing awesome! I wish more developers would create an introduction movie to get the story going - before entering the game.

I think you have things reversed. You need to have your brain turned off to delude yourself into enjoying the film.

If you're familiar with mental health it was pretty clear what was happening early on in the film. Schizophrenia (both her and her mother had it). The fun part was trying to distinguish between the hallucinations and reality.

This person got it.

[t0adp1p3]

I will sum it up like this:
Yes, I know she had mental health issues ( it was made abundantly clear in the first scene on the subway that I felt like he hit me with a very large very dumb hammer).

That being said, he did not convey the mental health issues in a unique or interesting manner at all during the movie (hey look I just ate myself out. or did i? huh?..mmmk.. yeah). He also muddied up his point unnecessarily and in a somewhat contrived way by having so many other characters display aberrant behavior with a hey was that real or not in your face I am a cool director attitude.

Last but not least could we have one more poorly thought out stereotypical character in the movie? The plays director, Winona Ryder's character, Mila Kunis's character all so very stereotypical that webster is having a hard time determining which one to put in the dictionary under stereotypical. The movie should have 50% of any score it gets deducted for having a sterotypical douche like that director in it, but at least he made up for it by not being able to act at all.

The movie was dumb, required no thought, held no surprises, and was only saved by shots of portman in her underwear, portmans acting ability, and people who think they are so refined that they think they are the only ones who can see the connection between swan lake and this dumb movie and are the only ones who can appreciate the "art" of it.

OK, Roger Ebert, whatever you say. Funny how that POS got an Oscar nomination for best picture being so dumb and all.

Yeah so did ghost, that didn't make that a good movie either.

C'mon guys, could we at least put the spoilers in spoiler tags ?
