Thread: last movie you saw - and what did you think of it?

Audition [1999]- my kind of film and yes i would watch again.. can't believe it took me this long to watch in the first place.

Dying Young (1991) - IMDb if i loved untamed heart...i would love this.
Somehow Victor's eyes intrigued me all thru out the movie, reminding me of those hazels eyes my dream guy has....i never forget those eyes. <3

Blue [1993]- from the Three Colors Trilogy

I just finished watching Upside Down. Upside Down - Official Trailer [HD] - YouTube
It's just my kind of story, I really enjoyed it.

Killer Joe

Wow. I don't know what to say really. I've been wanting to watch it for a while and now that I did I kinda wish I had just gone to sleep instead, and kept putting it off. What a weird story. I only liked one thing about it. I don't understand how this story was picked to be made into a movie, or more importantly, how the hell this was a play. If you haven't seen it yet, I'd advise you to save yourself some head scratching and skip it.

The Mark of Zorro (1940) - IMDb This is the real Zorro how he should be....i like how he walks around like he's not Zorro and pretends to be a whimpy man when he isn't. Then shows his true side near the end. 4/5

Return of The Batman ( Part 1 )
My son had this cartoon, he insisted I watch.
Over an hour long
Not one to dis' the Batman, but what a waste of time. For me anyway

Pacific Rim - Nice effects and fight scenes (when you could see what was going on), but the story was very generic and predictable. A lot of the acting was poor and the characters clichéd. Idris Elba's performance was excellent.

It's not worth seeing in the cinema, but I'd recommend DLing it when it's released on DVD.

&
red
- three colors trilogy

really liked this trilogy, they all tied together nicely. would recommend to anyone prepared for a drama film session.

The Conjuring (2013) - IMDb
Awesome, Awesome, movie! Love the acting and the plots. Was never boring and makes you guess what will happen next!
Cried at the end. 5/5

This movie did not bring in the finances to even pay for its self, then it went east, and made a ton of cash.
Not seen it yet, but on my "To Watch" list

^^^

Pacific Rim was the last for me too. The effects and actions were great, but the entire plot of the movie was basically all about killing monsters. It didn't really have any true substance or originality. Still, I liked the movie.

I read that last part as "LDing it." then laughed because, hey, it may not be a great movie but it would make a fantastic lucid dream.

I re-watched How To Train Your Dragon and I am surprised by how good it is. XD

i liked the effects pacific rim had, and i don't usually care for effects.

can we include animated shows?
i'm watching archer, and holy shitsnacks its the best!

Last thing I saw in the theater was Pacific Rim, and protip: it's not about the plot. I could not possibly have been more satisfied with a giant monsters vs. robots movie. And for the love of Cthulhu, if you're not going to see GIANT monsters and robots on the big screen (and the 3D was great, too, if 3D movies work for you), just what would get you to the theater? I thought the cast was great. The characters are supposed to be over-the-top and borderline camp. What the movie did best was portray a world shaped by living with the threat of kaiju attacks, and convey the scale of both the creatures and the engineering projects undertaken to resist them. Drift compatibility was a nice addition to the genre.

The plot was only adequate, but enormous creativity informed the production design, creatures and effects.

Man that really makes me want to see Pacific Rim now.

Another good movie I saw recently was Centurion on Netflix--a dwindling band of survivors from a massacred Roman legion trying to escape Pictish territory in Northern Britain, then the frontier of the Empire. I'm a sucker for the Classical Era, though in a lot of ways it was more of a modern war movie, siding very much with the rank and file and painting the leadership on both sides as uncaring, brutal and corrupt.

2 Guns
Brilliant storyline, and great actors.
A film that does not take its self too seriously.
Plenty of action

The last movie I watched was The Hunger Games. I've probably seen it around 4 times now, maybe more. I love the movie, it really manages to keep to the spirit of the book. Not to say there's not things I think shouldn't have been cut, but for a book to film adaptation, it's certainly one of the better ones.

naked lunch [1991] -had to see it again.

Centurion was good, I really liked it too. It's definitely worth the watch if you haven't already!

time travelers wife.

Man.....that movie was really good. Not just good because I love anything involving time travel, but I like the way everything was set up. My only complaint was the number of ass shots that happened. Anyways, aside from that, 5 out of 5. I almost cried towards the end.

Spoiler for klick if you seen it.:

If you think that he dies at the end, you're right in a way. But the movie shows us that the younger version of us starts to teleport into the future to have talks with his daughter. The reason why I bring this up is because he starts out teleporting to his future wife. Around the time he marries, he has a talk with his future self, and he tells the current him, that he's alone, and no one loves him. This obviously changes, and that's why the future old man version of him never shows up again. There's a point where he's gone a lot from the wife, and I think he's gone because he's spending time with his future daughter. At the age he's at, he should be spending that time traveling to his past, but he's not. IMO I think the reason why he time travels is because that's the only way he can straighten out things in his life. The first reason was to actually make sure he fell in love with the woman he was supposed to be with by spending more time that he really would have with her, while quitting his drinking habit. The second part came when he started traveling to see his daughter. As the movie explains, she knew how to go to certain points in time, and I think because of this, she would have been able to prevent the fatal gunshot that offed him.

Also, I saw monsters U. It was okay.....not super great, but it was okay. I want to see the original now.

Snitch eh....super slow, but it picks up at the end and turns out to be a good serious movie.

Fast 6....I really couldn't watch it. It just reminded me of all the other ones. One liners, super chase scene, and some plot twists I really didn't care about.

I've had a Rock a thon lately...can't figure out what's the other movie I've seen with him, but yeah he was in another...maybe it was just GI Joe.

Atonement and Dirty Harry
Atonement i truly love it, i can really know the feeling of being apart while it's someone elses fault and jealousy that caused it <3
Dirty harry, my fav part was at the end when Harry went after the bad guy on a school bus! epic bad ass move! <3 Dirty Harry - Bus Hijack - YouTube
