It is.
The Watchmen kinda blew...story came together outta nowhere, so it should have been an hour long, not 3.
Wolverine sucked lot o' balls. And I'm a diehard Marvel/X-Men fan.
The Knowing is now in my top 20 worst movies ever seen.
So is 'Mirrors'

Boondock Saints was a bastard child of Tarantino that reveled in its own self-worth. The best part of that film was the cat getting blown up; other than that, there was nothing redeeming about it.

^ I find the above statement ironic given that it comes of after Inglorious Basterds, which is definitely not even close to the Boondock Saints in genius.

I haven't seen Inglorious Basterds; but as far as classic Tarantino films go, Boondock Saints doesn't even compare.

Well yeah. Natural Born Killers makes Saints look very amatuer. But Not all Tarantino movies are that good.

You can't really call Natural Born Killers a true Tarantino flick, considering his writing was significantly revised by Stone. Resevoir Dogs, however, is one of the best movies ever.

Holy shit. Apparently this is old news, but this is the first I've heard of it:

Just finished watching Mesrine, parts 1 and 2. True life story of a French gangster. I don't know enough about the guy to know how accurate the story was, but even if half true it would be pretty fucking incredible. The guy was a complete self deluded arsehole but seriously, balls of steel. Used to rob one bank, then cross the road to rob another. Didn't give a shit about police, if they cornered him, he'd just shoot it out and if imprisoned, he'd break out. He once broke out of a maximum security prison by snipping the fence and hoping the snipers didn't hit him, then a few days later went back with a colleague, armed with machine guns, and unsuccessfully tried to break out all the other prisoners by just shooting their way in. Then tried to do the same for his girlfriend who was in the female prison.

Yes, glad to see someone else doesn't like it. Sometimes I feel like everyone but me thought that movie was good

I liked Resevoir Dogs the first time I watched it. It had pretty much zero rewatchability for me though.

Just saw The Hurt Locker. It was pretty good but I don't know if it was as amazing as all the reviews made it out to be. I might've had my expectations set too high.
