I just got back from National Treasure 2. It was pretty much exactly the same fucking movie as the first one.
Last movie you've watched
- Thread starter metal_wrath
- Start date
Last movie i saw was Sweeney Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet Street. I practically almost fell asleep in the theater. I was tired from working day before (Christmas Eve) and to top it the movie was mostly a musical. If it wasn't for the musical part it wouldn't have bored me to death. It could of been a great movie with strictly dialogue vs singing. It's a serial killer for christ sakes with a woman making meat pies out of body parts lol No Singing!!!!

The last movie I watched was Black Snake Moan. I watched it yesterday and it was a very good movie.

Objectively, Hitman was an absolutely terrible movie. However considering I'm rarely objective and really rather partisan most of the time, I loved it. It's lame enough to work, despite the wholly unoriginal and actually poorly copied everything.

The Bourne Ultimatum. Great ending to the trilogy!
Sex & Fury. Watched it looking for Kill Bill influences. They're easy to spot in this one. +1 point for the female lead being completely nude hacking people up with a samurai sword. -1 point for the "spy" sub plot and the horrible dialogue therein. +1 point for Christina Lindberg's nude scenes.

I Am Legend. Basically a more suspensful and scientific Resident Evil.
How? I saw that a few days ago, I have no idea how Cebola proves Ben's grandpas innocence.

Halloween (2007). I thought it sucked. The characters were horrible, one-dimensional, and so annoying that Michael Meyers couldn't possibly give them the death I wished upon them. All of the horror and suspense was sucked out of it in favor of cheap scares, shitty dialogue, and laughable events. I thought Rob would have a little more attention to detail, but this seems an outlet for his hillbilly psychoporn fantasies.
Anyways... the last movie i saw was Atonement.... great acting, great story and great movie... highly recommend it... I thought I would get bored but i didn't... I can see this one being nominated for best movie and other awards at the Oscars... it already has for the Golden Globes... and rightfully so...

Hell yeah. I saw this when it hit the UK in September and it's excellent. Maybe I'm being unfair but I didn't think many whom frequent this board would enjoy it.
It's brilliantly told, and despite the post-modern ending being every-so-slightly wanky, it's awesome. Some of the direction is mind blowing (I'm thinking of a certain beach scene).

I've completely given up on independent films. I watched a film adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's short story "Beyond the Wall of Sleep" and it was fuckin' horrible. Before returning it to Blockbuster I decided to watch it a second time with the commentary on. It was hilarious, the creators sounded completely plastered. Later on in the commentary they admitted that they were on a combo of Red Bull and vodka. The entire script was written in three days, you gotta be impressed with that.

The Kingdom - Was a lot better than I thought it would be.
Female Yakuza Tale - More naked samurai women. There's so much sex in this one that it got old and I completely last track of the plot (if there was one).
DOA - haha @ DOA Beach Volleyball segment. The chicks were pretty hot. "Helena" and the purple-haired ninja chick get my vote.

I liked I Am Legend. I'm the in camp that thinks Will Smith is a likeable chap able to hold a movie. Those saying the Zombies lacked a certain something (they looked terrible at points!) are right, for sure. I've always liked the novel, and the Omega Man was pretty alright too. It's a good premise, but it never quite films well towards the end.
Nevertheless, I think Smith tapped into some of the motifs pretty well and the movie runs pretty smoothly. It's hardly stunning direction, but it's pretty snappy and suits the movie.

Death Sentence - I've always had a lot of respect for Kevin Bacon and he delivers again in this movie. Easily one of his most violent but he proves he's still a great actor.
