Recent movies...

Postby krod on Sun Dec 11, 2005 2:24 am

I have seen a few new movies recently (*shock* yes i do come out of my house once in awhile and watch non computer / physics related movies!)

1)Lord of war: excellent movie that depicts on the ups and downs of illegal gun selling to third-world county's. My rating of the movie : 8.8/10

2)AeonFlux - HORRIBLE. Don't see it, i left early it was so bad. My rating: 1/10

3) Chronicles of Narnia - Good movie, based on c.s. lewis. Rating: 8/10
Feel free to post some of your thoughs of recent movies or old movies

I liked Lord of War too, pretty sweet movie.

Recently I have watched and enjoyed:

Kingdom of Heaven - About the crusades, long. 9/10
Sin City - Blood, Jessica Alba, nuff said. 10/10
Revolver - Sort of a mob movie, very complex story. 9.5/10
Me and You and Everyone We Know - Independant movie about...not really sure, but good. 9.5/10

I am still wanting to see that George Clooney movie and the war movie that I can't think of right now that just came out.

Walk the Line: good if you like Johnny Cash, otherwise don't bother. 8/10

Huh... guess that's all I've seen recently... last movie I saw before that was Serenity, which was flat-out INCREDIBLE, if you didn't see it while it was in theaters you gotta wait till it's available to rent and it's worth it.

I haven't seen any new movie lately. The only old movie I saw around three weeks ago was "Cronicles of Riddick". Wasn't bad. My rating about it 7/10.

Heh, what was so bad about Aeon Flux, I've never seen the cartoons, and I enjoyed it. Smile I'd give it more like a 6/10. Razz

Harry Potter was excellent though, by far the best yet, they're all growing up though, by the last movie, they'll be in their late 20's! Razz

Haha, we were actually watching Monsters Inc. in school today (recess actually). I enjoy most of those animated movies, mostly becuase they have little jokes hidden in there that younger kids won't get, but the older crowd will, so it's enjoyable for both. Smile I think thats one of the best kinds of movies, enjoyable for all ages. (Madagascar was like that as well.)

Out of curiosity why such a high rating on that movie?

The movie Flux was more about Theron's action than the story. If it was more plot and less flying-and-doing-stupid-stuff-while-wearing-a-skimpy-costume, I might have liked it. I'd say 3 or 4 out of 10.

I've just tried to watch Fantastic Four twice and fell asleep both times. It starts off strong but slowly losses steam. Jessica Alba is definatley the best part Very Happy The Skeleton Key, on the other hand, was a very interesting movie. If you like movies with lots of twists and turns this is one for you.

Fantastic Four: 4/10
Skeleton Key: 8/10
