Dan in Real Life

Not bad, I didn't care for the girls' characters and everybody seemed a bit subdued but it was an alright movie.

Well, if you're looking for straight-forward no-brainer torture, I'd recommend Hostel. Me- I'll take a more subtle, awkwardly realistic, "confusing" (I'd use chaotic) piece of horror cinema like Audition over that crap any day of the week.

Oh Audition is better than Hostel. Just because I didn't think it was phenomenal doesn't mean I can't tell good from bad.

Random and scattered?

Should a movie be like this - opening credits roll, Rambo walks in holding a minigun against an army, keeps blasting away for 90 minutes, a shot of the carnage he did, and end credits roll?

Every good story needs a decent buildup - in case of Rambo, it was exceptional and horrific at the same time, if you related to the true-life crimes showed as glimpses in the first 20-25 odd-minutes.

Empathy is one of the most-redeeming qualities of a movie lover, my friend.;)

Though you may find some mixed reviews about the movie, but I'll say ....WoW! Argento is back with the 70's splatter fest! And this time he is more brutal with the victims. I quite enjoyed all the gore parts, blood sheds, nudity and his usual chilling background scores. But little bit disappointed with the final climax. Moreover, feeling somewhat sorry for myself that I still haven't seen Inferno yet. I'll order it on e-bay soon.

Like Jodie's new look? I thought she looked gorgeous.

And how was We Own The Night in your opinion? (wrote my review of it only last night, in my Movie Reviews thread)

Jodie looked ok ... i'm not a huge fan of hers but there was something about this movie i liked .. they took a lot of time to try to express the sensation of loss more than other films of this type.



We Own the Night wasn't bad. entertaining - but nothing that will stay with me (it really didnt bring a single thing new to the table)

the girlfriend was smoking hot though

I do as well, so much fun.

Finally saw Cube last night. And I thought it wasn't bad really, considering what they had to work with. Some of the acting was......annoying. But definitely an interesting idea and I really liked the last few minutes. Worth one viewing at least.

"Stallone back in action with 2-film deal

Boxoffice comeback champ Sylvester Stallone has inked a lucrative deal to direct and star in two action films with "Rambo" producers Danny Dimbort,

Several scripts are being considered for follow-ups to his surprise hit sequels to "First Blood" and "Rocky." With Nu Image/Millennium's new Writers Guild of America interim deal speeding up the process, the first script is expected to be ready by the fall, with production set to begin shortly thereafter.

"The past year and a half of working with Avi, his partners Danny and Trevor and his film family has been nothing but a high point for me and my career and an extremely rewarding experience," Stallone said. "Avi is a real gentleman and a man of his word."

Stallone will produce the films with Kevin King-Templeton and Lerner. Dimbort, Short and Boaz Davidson will serve as executive producers.

It's a deal few would have expected just a few years ago, when Stallone followed up his role in "Spy Kids 3D: Game Over" with a failed network boxing reality TV series, "The Contender." But in 2006, Stallone wrote, directed and starred in "Rocky Balboa," the sixth "Rocky" film, 16 years after the previous sequel in the franchise. The MGM release grossed $70 million on an estimated $24 million budget.

The second part of Stallone's one-two punch came with the current release "Rambo," which he also stars in, wrote and directed. The film, distributed by Lionsgate, made $18.2 million in its opening weekend and earned an estimated $25 million in its first 10 days of release.

Reuters/Hollywood Reporter"
This is super exiting.

Truth of the matter is, Rambo was Tailor-Made for me. ultra-violence and a large dose of masculinity, coupled with blood and gore galore and 80's homage. i love it.

I might. The question is (without being judgemental)...when will your crusade against the whole world end?;)

Surely it's not that hard to walk hand-in-hand with the rest of us.

no offense, but anybody's at liberty to judge someone who doesnt like The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly.

But like you said, to each his own.

I'm not in a crusade. Christ. I can like or hate whatever the hell I want to. Just because we aren't all on the same brain wave doesn't mean you're so special.

Christ. We've been over this multiple times. Westerns in general don't catch my interest, that doesn't mean I don't at least acknowledge that TGTBATU is a very *great* film, i just don't find it interesting. I even freaking own it for God's sake, so everyone can chill.

Besides, we can all like different things and not be impressed by others. I'm not a big fan of The Godfather... but that's just not my genre. It's not a bad film by any means but it's just not my favorite.

Hostility on all fronts. Damn.

The Marine

John Cena is awful in this movie and the movie just thinks it's so super bad ass that it is just uber cheesed. God awful acting on all fronts and its funny watching John Cena jump from explosions more then three times in one movie.

2/10

Read the book if you can find a copy, I found it in an op shop or what you would call a thrift shop for 20 cents, I loved it, then watched the movie again and loved that as well...

The book was written after the film, though. The film was an original screenplay.

The Seeker (The Dark is Rising)

one of the recent spate of films attempting to cash in on the Harry Potter/Young Adult Fantasy wave.

Based on the book by Susan Cooper..

Competently made with a couple of likeable characters .. it just didn't have the groceries to get out from under the shadow of the bigger more successful films. Very predictable and blah ending.

I didn't dislike it - but i sure didnt think it was great.

the H. Potters still lead the genre, followed by ... oh Spiderwick i guess, then the Golden Compass (for the polar bears and set design only), then The Seeker ... in that order (for me)

as always - in a hurry to make a buck, Hollywood is going to bleed this one dry.

Alison's Birthday- 6/10

This is a pretty decent film. I had never heard of it and a friend showed me. Very eerie, campy and cheesy possession film. It has a few scary moments and the concept was freaky, but it's nothing amazing. Either way, if you can find it, recommended. If someone could find it on dvd or burn it for me, I want it.
