enjoyed this film ... until the very ending - which didnt ring true.
but up to that point i enjoyed it a lot ... jack black was appropriately restrained ... great performances from everyone.
I liked how subtle this one was, one of the better comedies I've seen in awhile. I got a kick outta the stores changing over from VHS to DVD and the death of the independently run stores theme. What didn't you like about the ending?

Beautiful. Stunning. Touching.

To tell you the truth, when I heard that there was minimal writing and voicework, I was concerned that I'd be bored... But far from it.

I fully agree with The Penguin:



5/5 See it.
Definitely.
Incredible movie.

The Woods

Meh. Nothing special, but not completely awful. Not worth recommending at all, but if you happen to run across it on TV or something, I guess there are worse ways to kill a couple hours.


From Russia With Love

I said the same thing when I watched Dr. No a few days back: why in God's name have a waited so long to get into Bond movies? This one was beyond awesome...one of the coolest action movies I've seen in a long while.

*************SPOILERS **********************

i didnt think it was appropriate that there would be a neighbourhood full of people watching the film from the outside .. laughing ..etc

i know why they did it .. it just felt ill excecuted... (there wasnt anything to laugh at at that particular time for one thing .. just a guy in the hallway of a train)

I cant really explain it - it just didnt trasnition well to me.

it looked good ... it just didnt feel good. hard to explain.

i really liked danny glover in his role ..

My Name is Bruce.

definately funny in parts - but kind of shaky and uneven .. i thought it would flow better. I wasnt keen on the casting .. there werent any other strong characters except for the old chinese man.

on the other hand i was exhausted and kept dozing off .. could have set my expectations a little too high too....i'll have to give it another shot later.

I'm surprised at how many people liked Wall-e

I thought it was brilliant animation but the rest was mediocre at best. Nowhere near as good as most Pixar films, excluding Cars and A Bugs Life. It wasn't funny much and it dragged on for a long time. It was also incredibly predictable and I didn't care for any of the characters. I really wanted to enjoy it. Please, someone tell me what I missed that was so good, because as I said, I really want to enjoy it.

I heard cars was pretty shit...bugs life, that was ok though, not my favourite pixar film.
I think the deal with wall-e is how so little translated into so much through use of expression/emotion through a medium that you don't really think would have it...and, it looked pretty cool too.

Just rewatched "disturbing behaviour", for the first time in at least 4 years, caught it right at the beginning on tv and went with it.
I remember myself and the girl actually saw this movie at the cinema shortly after we met, probably round one of our first 5 "dates".
Funniest line? toss up between "slut...", and "what you lookin' at, retard?" ha.
A good watch, I still like it.

I watched it a couple days ago too. I didn't expect it to be great though. I wouldn't give it 'good' or 'bad'. I'd just say it was alright. I thought it was funny how they portrayed Bruce but I think it they could have made it a lot better. I guess its just mildly entertaining for Bruce Campbell fans.

WANTED

Not bad for a mindless action flick. Angelina Jolie looks horrible in it....WAY too skinny. I haven't read the comics this was based on but from what I hear.....It ain't nothing like it.

The book really wouldn't translate well to screen...one of the major bad guys is quite literally a walking pile of shit.
