No Country For Old MEn was a good movie I agree for what it was. But the pacing isnt for everyone. Nor is the ending lol.

I just went to see Jumper. The CG is top-notch, the acting is better than I expected from Hayden " Together... We will rule the galaxy" Christiansen, and it' s a pretty neat concept. It' s a popcorn flick to be sure. Go see it anyway.

I have seen him in " Life as a House" and " Shattered Glass" , and apart from some minimal wooden acting moments, his is definitely not as bad as he was playing Anakin. Then again, Star Wars has never presented itself for great performances, unless you' re a cool-ass character such as Han Solo.

One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest - Good ol insanity. Smiley Faces - Stoner movie starring Anna Faris Payback [Director' s Cut] - Original director was fired since they didnt like how dark the movie was getting. 7 years later they bought him back to do what he could with the footage they had. Did a pretty good job plus it has one of my favorite ending movie lines " Just Drive Baby" . Stars Mel Gibson Film Crew: Wild Women of Wongo - MST3K crew continues to do what they do best. Jabberwocky - Meh Exiled - Over the top hong bullet ballet mixed with a spaghetti western theme directed by one of Hong Kongs coolest directors Jonny To. Good stuff.

War - Statham shouldn' t play American characters/Jet Li shouldn' t act in American films. Cloverfield - Fuc.king awful. Juno - Fuc.king awful. Rambo IV - Fuc.king amazing. Easily the best war film since Black Hawk Down, and almost as good as Platoon. Easily Sly' s best movie to date and probably my favourite movie in the past couple of years. The special effects are unbelievably realistic and if anything, it really drives home the respect you should have for .50 calibre weapons. Death has never looked so good. Jumper - Fuc.king awful. National Treasure: Book of Secrets - Nic Cage racing around the world because of some American Civil War/Lincoln assassination bullshit. Thin on plot but as with all Cage movies... very likeable. I didn' t expect much, even though i thought the first one was good... but i was pleasantly surprised. The Bank Job - Exactly what Statham should be doing. Not quite Lock Stock or Snatch, but FAR better than anything else he' s been in. A kickass British crime flick. Sweeney Todd - Fantasic portrayal of an age old English possibly based-in-truth folks tale. No Country For Old Men - Another cinematic wonder from the Coen Brothers. It' s in the same league as Fargo and O Brother Where Art Thou, ...they definitely haven' t lost their touch.

The Hudsucker Proxy - The under watched satire of big business by the Coen Brothers. Honestly its directing style reminded me of Terry Gilliams stuff. Sam Raimi helped write it. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - Funny noir. Stars Robert Downey Jr and Val Kilmer. From the writers and producers of Lethal Weapon I think. Which might be why Downey' s character reminded me of Gibson' s. Anyways another under watched flick go see it. Robin B Hood - One of Jackie Chan' s recent HK produced films. Think three men and a baby only with Chan. Not to say it wasnt good tho. The fights were solid, the comedy on par the story a bit different then Chan' s other stuff and he gets to display a somewhat darker character and show off some decent acting. L.A. Confidential - ***n love this movie. Eastern Promises - Good stuff brutal fight scene ...rushed ending. Happiness - So bizarre even for me. I ended up not finishing it tho i really. Tho I should' ve. Very dark humor. Hard to put this as a recomendation.

Rambo IV - Fuc.king amazing. I have been chastised by my friends for liking this one so much. By far the best Rambo movie, but I won' t say that it is Sly' s best film to date as I am still in the belief that the first Rocky movie is still his best. Kind of funny that for so many years Sly has been putting out a lot of crap. Now he has put together back to back great films with Rocky and Rambo IV.

I liked the last Rambo, but I' d put it third on the list. First Blood was AWESOME in my opinion. Then the second and then part 4. We' ll just pretend part 3 didn' t happen! As far as Rocky, I liked part 4 the best (I think it' s part 4. The one with the Russian.)

I haven' t seen any new movies recently, but I did watch The Full Monty last night. A true british movie if there ever was one. I also saw Diamonds Are Forever not long ago. I might have to download Cloverfield and No Country For Old Men.

Just saw " The Counterfitters" . It' s a german language film that won best foreign film this year at the Academy Awards about a group of concentration camp inmates who are forced to counterfiet the dollar and the pound to support the German economy. Fantastic, and not at all wrapped up in the usual " strength of will" story that gets told. There' s no direct idealist protagonist, and no clear totally likable character by the end, which is comforting in a World War II film.

No Country For Old Men Nice movie for the most part. I feel that Tommy Lee Jones' character was completely useless and had next to no reason to be in the movie. If all of the Tommy Lee Jones scenes were cut out, the movie would be 10 times better. I couldn' t contain my yawns when Tommy Lee Jones visited the man of many cats. That sure was pointless. Also, the movie could have used an ending.

Yeah like I sad above, that movie was good for what it was, but most definitely for a very specific type of audience. I enjoyed it, but I wouldn' t watch it more then once. Chinatown : Old Jack Nicholson flick directed by Roman Polanski based in the 1930' s. Damn cool movie.

The Mexican: Don' t know why people hated this movie. Brad Pitt and Juliet Roberts star in this thriller/comedy...or something like that. A bag man (Pitt) has a streak of bad luck in his job and personal life. Gets one last chance to redeem himself and things go wrong as usual. Directed by Gore Verbinksi (SP?) Severance: Somtehing along the lines of Shaun of the Dead. A horror comedy only much darker and a little less comedy. I have never heard of this movie so it was a random pick up but a good pick up. A group of interanational weapons sales people go on a company retreat in Hungary. A rogue group of russian commandos decides to hunt them down. Starring a group of unknowns (at least in the US) Toby Stephens, Laura Harris and Danny Dyer. Directed by Christopher Smith.

Meet the Spartans The worst movie I' ve ever watched. I only smirked like 3 times, and not because of a funny gag or something but simply because of a pop culture reference. Seriously, this is a piece of crap and I beg you, DO NOT PAY FOR THIS MOVIE, because, seriously, supporting people like the two guys behind this piece of shit, is the worst imaginable crime. This movie sucks huge dicks and I hope all people involved in making it die a horrible death.

Everyone should go rent this movie just for that one scene.

30 Days of Night: A decent movie. Tho the editing seemed like a mess at some points. It seemed like scenes were missing I thought I had fallen alseep and woke up later on in the movie or something. But aside from that it turned out to be an ok vampire movie. hmmm only a one time rental.

Meet the Spartans I hear its terrible but I still want to see it, maybe becuase I loved 300. One of my friends thinks 300 is better than Gladiator, what a fool! Recently I' ve seen.. Semi-Pro maybe like one funny part, very forgetable, Will Ferrall can do better. The Third Resident evil film my flatmate bought the dvd so I watched this yesterday, I didnt see it in the cinema as the other two were comicly bad. I was surprized with this one though, a glimmer of a good movie was present, |I really liked the idea of trying to find a cure and all that, and the whole world is a desert thing is neat. Of course film has some major problems like the last two but this is by favorite of the ' trilogy' . Not saying much though, Milla Jovovich is quite hot too.

The movie is pretty bad, but not on the scale that people lead on. It gets a lot of heat because it was made by the people who made Date Movie. A lot of the movie is just childish jokes, but you should be able to get at least 6 or 7 good laughs from the movie. You wont find it funny at all if you haven' t seen 300. I don' t recommend paying for it, but I think its worth a download.

Harsh Times: Christian Bale again proves how versatile he is as an actor. Pretty good movie...maybe if only because it has an eerie resemblance to a few things in my life. The Constant Gardener: Sad movie. Pretty good. Probably slow for some, but I enjoyed No Country for Old Men so that really doesn' t bother me. The Sarah Silverman Program: Funny as hell.

ORIGINAL: Terry Bogard Bought " I AM LEGEND" . Not a bad movie. It was like 28 Days/Weeks later meets your typical vampire movie. I want to see this, but I just figure the ending will be rubbish and nothing like the book. Can' t be worse than the Omega Man though :) I bought Planet Terror and while some of the " vintage" effects were really annoying I enjoyed it. Totally over the top Zombie film.

Paranoid Park - About a kid who accidentally kills a security guard while trainhopping with some skate punks. It fared well at Cannes, and I rather liked it. The presentation was disjointed, but that helped tie you to the character emotionally.

Just recently bought I Am Legend which was pretty good, and 30 Days Of Night. 30 Days of Night I enjoyed just for the simple fact of how brutal the Vampires were.

The Holy Mountain: Avant garde for sure... took me awhile to understand what the hell the creater was going for but it all came together...I think... Crime Story: Michael Mann' s tv series form the 80' s pretty good stuff. Only watched the pilot set so far.

i' m far from a movie buff, but if i ever wanted to make my own movie, i' m pretty sure i' d make it along the same lines of the one i saw on the weekend at a mates place. from dusk till dawn. a movie that was fantastic at the start, if not leaning towards the creepy side, only until halfway.. where it takes an unexpected turn that turns the action/horror into a comedy. :P I personally loved it, doubt i could watch it a second time though.

Chaos - Jason Stathem, Wesley Snipes, and Ryan Phillipe star in this rather meh bank heist flick. Nice little twist ending. Actually it was pretty meh also. Sweeny Todd - Its a musical so I knew what I was getting into on that front. It was Burton and Depp so I knew what I was getting form them. Overall tho I would' ve preferred a non musical version. I don' t dislike musicals I enjoyed Moulin Rouge and like Across the Universe. But the story for this I would' ve liked it with a little less singing... but it was based off a broadway musical so I can' t say anything. IN the end the I still enjoyed it enough. Videodrome - Good weird ass film. The Devil' s Own - Good enough. Papillion - Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman star in this prison break film that owns most all others.

Daywatch Sequel to Nightwatch, both big budget russian movies that made it to the big screen. I saw the first film at the cinema, but missed this sequel so I got it on DVD. I loved the first film, just had a certain style to it. Dark, honest, the effects were brilliant (bullet time and CGI = awesome) but also it didn' t take itself too seriously. Daywatch was just as good in all these areas, but the story wasn' t as epic. (And a little confusing as I' d forgotten what happened in the first film!) Kinda made me want to play Stalker again! 4/5 (Beware of subtitles those who are allergic)

Sweeney Todd- Not too bad, kind of grew on you as it progressed. Many of the songs could have been better written and performed, though. I guessed the ending long before it happened. The teenage boy looked way too much like a girl, though. How could the teenage girl be attracted to him unless she was a lesbo?

Rented I don' t know anymore what the title was but it was a Star Wars movie...tried giving it a go again... Still find it boring and stupid. I don' t know why it' s just something about those movies rub me the wrong way. I try to find something I like in them but I just can' t.
