Tachii said: 500 days of summer. Ohgawd. Dem feels. The acting felt so natural. Not a love story. But a story about love. Does that make sense? 9/10 One of my favorite movies. I just watched the Bourne Supremacy last night. Had it on demand and needed a good action movie. Good like all the Bourne movies. |
| Django Unchained 9/10 EVERYTHING was over the top and cheesy, it was great. Over dramatic camera pans with cheesy music. The shoot scenes were perfectly executed. Loved the excessive amount of blood. The music Tarantino was meh compared to what he have used in the past. The ending song was the sole exceptions. With music I don't mean Ennio Morricone's scores because that was, as always, perfect. The acting was excellent and so was the cheesy lines. And god when they complain about the masks. So good. Laughed my ass off. |
| The Imposter (2012) Its crazy to believe something like that could happen, and I by no means condone the actions Frédéric Bourdin, but man I have to respect his skill. That was just one crazy documentary. For those of you who haven't seen this film, the less you know going in, the better. That being said, its best you not look up this guy on Wikipedia or anything. In fact, don't even watch a trailer, just put on the movie. |
 |
| Finally watched Moonrise Kingdom. It was cute, almost too cute. And quirky, way too quirky. It can't be called cheesy, but whenever it's about romance at such a young age, you can't help but feel out of place watching it. 7/10, I think. |
| Stark Trek (the 2009 movie) Alternatively titled: James T. Kirk gets beat up and thrown around, a lot. By the way, this might be long. (in other words, I loved this movie) Yeah, I should've watched this when it came out. Maybe I was in my "Space movies are for NERDS!!" phase or....something. Also, didn't know Chris Hemsworth was in it (for like 15 minutes but it counts) so it was a pleasant surprise. Overrall, I thought it was very good and I personally loved it. Can't compare it to any of the other movies since this is the first one I've watched and I never saw The Original Series. I think this movie won an Oscar for makeup and it deserved it, the aliens were all really well done and I'm a personal fan of the Vulcan ears. I'll be honest, I watched this because I saw the trailer for the second one and thought Chris Pine looked Very Good and I dislike watching sequels first because, well, it makes no sense at all. Well, I'm glad Mr. Pine is an eye candy because I wouldn't have watched this otherwise. I didn't really dislike anything in it but the romance between Spock and Uhura felt kind of...bland and unnecessary so I hope it's at least expanded upon in the sequel. I really liked Old Spock (or Spock Prime) though, would've probably enjoyed him more if I was a fan of the original series and movies. It's also pretty amazing how Kirk is basically the Butt Monkey of the movie and still managed to be pretty darn awesome. In the end, I felt this was a good introduction to the franchise. I WAS confused at some parts but by the end most of that was explained. I do recommend reading the tie-in comics and watching the deleted scenes since they explain anything left out of the movie. 8.5/10 |

| Iron Man 3 : God damn Bait n switch Bas@@@@s!! 6/10 |
| star trek into darkness disappointing. it was scarily similar to transformers - all special effects and yelling and loud noises. a moments quiet every so often is not a bad thing you know! 2.5/5 |
| Star trek into darkness i didn't find it to bad i actually enjoyed it |
| Kiss Kiss Bang Bang -- The banter, comedy, nipple, and Robert Downey Jr were all great 8/10. |
| Man of the year - Well, the movie was good, but I wasn't in the right mood. :/ |
Tell the victims to kill eachother. |
| Saw Heat (1995). Gooddamn police/criminal drama. A bit toooooo long though. But it was the norm then. 8/10. |
| Side Effects Got to watch Rooney Mara get naked, but even that wasn't able to save this movie from being boring as shit. |
|
| Star Trek Into Darkness. I really liked it, i think i would have liked it more if i knew more of the Star Trek lore. Still a good 8.5/10 |
| Just finished Iron Man 3 , guess it was pretty nice ;) 8.5/10 |
| Seven Psychopaths hilarious movie. Sam Rockwell did steal the whole show for me. |
Woodstock said: The Great Gatsby -- Again, a movie I almost really liked; I liked the novel. It was hyper-stylized and vibrant, which I think would have worked well, but there were a few scenes where I thought it was too much. And there was quite a bit of noticeable CGI (which I've always hated) and some weird green screen shots that I thought were out of place, but now I feel like I'm getting picky. The music though, ughhh, I think Baz should've just stuck with 20's music rather than including modern music-- totally killed it for me. I have no complaints about actors or story. tl;dr-- my 2¢: Pretty much, I thought everything was fine except for some of Baz Luhrmann's directing choices. eh... almost & kinda disappointed, but still ok, 6-ish/10 I'm kicking myself for not having read the book yet. Leo and Carey Mulligan are great, so I really want to see it. I wonder if This Side of Paradise will ever get the modern movie treatment. The last movie I saw was Late Spring, by Yasujirō Ozu. Not sure if anyone here is into movies like this. Every description of Late Spring's plot that I've read hasn't done it any justice at all. The plot isn't really that special. It's fantastic because of the directing, the characters, and the character relationships. Definitely recommend it to anybody that likes new-wave or old Japanese films |

No, nobody is into movies like this.^^ Last films I saw was Le Passé from Asghar Farhadi who directed A Separation. The storytelling of this Iranian director is just stunning. I like how his movie starts as really simple story and get more and more complex as he throws at us some plot and psychological twists that lead his movies to unexpected direction. Highly recommended! |

Golyadkin said: Haha, fantastic! You got the name and everything 8) Lol, yeah, Setsuko Hara is my favorite actress, and her role in Late Spring is probably the main reason. Really powerful movie. Le Passé looks great, I've just added it to my to-watch list. I've never seen an Iranian film before. Yeah, I don't know that much about Iranian cinema either, but that director is really encouraging me to give it a look, and it seems to be more interesting than I initially thought. Anyway, I'd suggest you to watch A Seperation first, since it's his most acclaimed movie as of now, and it would give you more insight on the life in Iran as it is set in this country while Le Passé is set in France. |
| Star Trek: Into Darkness It was a great movie! I'm not really a big Star Trek/Wars fan but both of the new Star Trek movies were great. I thought this one was better than the first. |
| Now that Ozu is floating around, did you see I was born, but..., SetsukoHara? So damn endearing. I think I like it more than Tokyo story. |
SetsukoHara said: Lol, yeah, Setsuko Hara is my favorite actress, and her role in Late Spring is probably the main reason. Really powerful movie. She was great in Late Spring. I'm planning on watching Akira Kurosawa's No Regrets for our Youth soon, so I'm excited to see her in another role.

I also second Setsuko's 'A Separation' rec. It blew me away. |
jal90 said: Now that Ozu is floating around, did you see I was born, but..., SetsukoHara? So damn endearing. I think I like it more than Tokyo story. Yeah, I saw it. The boys were a lot of fun, I especially like the younger son, just seeing his face was enough to make me laugh. I can still remember the scene where they are confronting their father, it was quite intense. I can understand why you'd like it more than Tokyo Story, it has some interesting social commentaries, and the comedy was great. |
| Only God Forgives. The new film from Nicolas Winding Refn (director of Drive). A pretty simple story about revenge based in Bangkok, the movie is short and slow paced, which is quite a shame, cause I'm sure the character could have brought more complexity to the movie if we saw more of them. So, all in all, the movie is pretty much an stylistics exercise where the director tries to blend the ultra-violence of some slasher movies with the mesmerizing beauty of the Thai Cinema. The idea is good, the execution isn't, the dream like sequence are not fascinating and memorable enough and the violence is completely out of control, which makes things look a bit childish and stupid at some point. All in all, it was not bad, it was quite pleasant, but it leaves you a bad aftertaste. Disapointing. |
SetsukoHara said: Only God Forgives. Just looked this up and found this article. Nicolas Winding Refn, said that he approached filmmaking "like a pornographer: it's about what arouses me. Certain things turn me on more than other stuff and I can't suppress that." He added: "I have surely a fetish for violent emotions and images." Sounds interesting... Anyways, Drive has been catching my eye lately. Mostly because Carey Mulligan is in it. I might check it out soon. I just finished A Separation. Thanks for mentioning it. 10/10. I think it's one of my favourite movies now. One of the first I've seen in a while that really got me emotionally involved, anyways. Beautifully directed as well. Some of those shots made me drool. |
Golyadkin said: Anyways, Drive has been catching my eye lately. Mostly because Carey Mulligan is in it. I might check it out soon. Watched Drive because I was bored, was very good. The epic 80s style soundtrack was awesome. Probably the second best car chase ever put on film as well. Good stuff. Last movie I watched was Warm Bodies, was a real disappointment. |

Sanjur0 said: Last movie I watched was Warm Bodies, was a real disappointment. Haha. That movie looked terrible. Why would anybody want to make a "paranormal romantic zombie comedy"? I don't know. Kind of feel like they were just cashing in on all of the trends at once. Nicholas Hoult is a good actor though. I really loved him in the first series of Skins. |
| The Hangover Part's 1 and 2. The first one was okay, it had some pretty decent humor and managed make me laugh a few times. That's really all I wanted so it's fine. But, Part 2 is pretty much the perfect definition of "lazy sequel". The structure and plot of the movie was pretty much copied and pasted from the first film, with a few differences and even how they found the missing person in both was very similar. Just lazy all around. Well, it still managed to pull a few laughs from me. |

| Watched Taxi Driver a great movie with great story and brilliant acting by Robert De Niro. |

| Finally watched The Evil Dead (1981) that was pretty awesome. It was campy as all hell and some of the effects were kind of badly done, but the movie legitimately creeped me out at points and Bruce Campbell does a great job in the latter half of the film. It was strange how wooden his acting in the beginning was when he did the scenes where Ash was terrified and pretty much going crazy so well. |

insan3soldiern said: Finally watched The Evil Dead (1981). The only zombie movies I've seen have been the 28 series, and the original Walking Dead, which was laughably terrible in a really really good way. Last night I watched Akira Kurosawa's No Regrets for our Youth. Another one staring Setsuko Hara. It's a drama that takes place around the "Takigawa incident". Altogether an incredible movie. My only complaint is that they could have shaved some scenes off at the end and used the time to further develop the relationship between two of the main characters. The relationship seemed to get too serious too fast, because the movie skipped forward about 7 years without giving you much to work with. I think Kurosawa is definitely most famous for his samurai movies, but his modern ones are amazing as well. One of my favourites is Ikiru. Heartbreaking movie. Definitely watch it if you're a Kurosawa fan. |
| Last movie I saw in theaters was the new Star Trek movie. It was good but I won't really go into it except that the big reveal wasn't that surprising. My husband figured it out 20 minutes in. It was nice to see Mickey from Doctor Who though. I watched the Protector last night and I had forgotten how much I love that movie. The Protector: A young fighter named Kham must go to Australia to retrieve his stolen elephant. With the help of a Thai-born Australian detective, Kham must take on all comers, including a gang led by an evil woman and her two deadly bodyguards. Tony Jaa is incredibly. The way his body moves is simply amazing.He has some great fights in this film especially the Capoeria fight. I always felt that Capoeria hasn't gotten enough love as a martial art. You almost never see it in films. |

| the last thing i watched was the Mark Zackerbirg life movie and it wasn't bad |

the_seventh_l said: Iron Man 3. Thoroughly enjoyed it, loved the exploration of Tony Stark's character as well as his relationship with Pepper. The twist about the Mandarin was boss. I was actually pretty pissed off about the whole Mandarin twist. Mandarin has always been my favorite of Iron Mans foes so the whole twist... I felt the Mandarin was wasted. |

| Watched the beginning of Boogeyman with my sister. I was so boring that we stopped watching x] |
| Le Cercle Rouge (1970) Another film by Jean-Pierre Melville starring Alain Delon. It's a heist movie, surrounding a recently released criminal, a pursued criminal, and a sour cop. Incredible stuff. Melville also directed another movie staring Alain Delon called Le Samourai, which is very similar in tone and style, but I'm not sure which one I liked more. ALL of Melville's stuff is recommended though. Leon Morin, Priest is a huge favourite of mine. It's also really pretty Enokii said: After Hours A strange movie, dream-like. Worth watching. Directed by the amazing Martin Scorsese, who also directed classics like Taxi Driver and Goodfellas. The only movie by Scorsese I've seen was Shutter Island. I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of really great stuff.. |

| The last movie I saw was actually Iron Man 3. I have to say it was much better than the 2nd. |
 |
| Star trek. Fucking waste of time. More Bullshit. Thanks America, (and mom for making me watch it) for wasting my time, and turning my brother into a fucking retard. |
 I love you. |
