We should get "The Expendables" in the mail today. Too bad I'm too sick to make it to the mailbox. *cough, cough*

Can't watch. At work.

Definitely a love it or hate it movie.rachelbean wrote:I watched this this morning and I really liked it. It has a bad rating/reviews on imdb but I watched it anyway because netflix thought I would enjoy it...and I did. It's actually a very slow and quiet movie for the most part:

Re: So.... Seen Any Good Movies Lately?
It's only 16 minutes long, and not particularly deep or meaningful. I just liked the cinematography, thought it was funny in places and found it interesting.Animavore wrote:http://www.brettgerry.co.uk/2009/11/ale ... an-conway/The Mad Hatter wrote:Pappa wrote:I just came across this while playing the Google Image game....

I could only stick about 4 minutes of it before I had to turn it off out of sheer annoyance.Pappa wrote:It's only 16 minutes long, and not particularly deep or meaningful.

Re: So.... Seen Any Good Movies Lately?
I think I'd probably agree with Ani.
I tend to most of the time when it comes to films.

Re: So.... Seen Any Good Movies Lately?
Just watched the original...

I don't know why I haven't seen this film before. It seems like something I would've loved as a kid.
Considering one of the things a lot of the critics agree on about the new movie is that it is, "humourless", I was surprised to see how light-hearted this is and how likeable Jeff Bridges' character is seeing how serious he is now.
Of course, it is all rather serious really but something about the retro special effects can't help but bring a smile to one's face. I absolutely loved it.
It'll be interesting to see how the latest one will pan out.

People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

Re: So.... Seen Any Good Movies Lately?
I'm starting to get some of these movies in the mail now.
Hang 'Em High. Awful. I love Clint Eastwood, and love his westerns, but this one was crap.
V for Vendetta. Don't think I ever read Alan Moore's original, but even so, I could kinda tell this film was a bastardized version of it. Didn't care much for it.
Valhalla Rising. Very very beautiful film. Not a heck of a lot happens it it. Mostly mood, atmosphere, lots of style, and absolutely gorgeous scenery. And then more mood for good measure.
