Last Seen Contemporary Movie

[Khaleesi]

The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007)--very disturbing. I think I need a little break from serial killer movies for a while.

And I finally saw The Hobbit on Tuesday. Extremely disappointed, especially with the characterization of the Mirkwood Elves. What is P.J. doing?

The Last Stand


Aaarnuld can still throw down

fun mindless action

"The Wolf of Wall Street" 7/10

Pretty entertaining but way too long for this kind of story. At least in Casino somebody got whacked once in a while.

oh lord - i HATED that movie!! i was embarrassed for everyone in it…


however - you got me wanting to see My Favourite Year so i pulled out the laserdisc last night and showed it to the kid. What a sweet, beautiful, funny movie.

"this is for ladies!"
"so is this ma'am, but every now and then i must run a little water through it"

I can surely understand your hatred for that movie......I just have a soft spot for those 80s action movies.

The Stunt Man is another great O'toole movie , which I'm sure you have seen.

I do too - for the actual 80's movies - and I wanted to enjoy this one in that same light .. but this just felt like a soulless by-the -numbers misfire



oh yes - I have the Stunt man :)

Frozen

Though I enjoyed Tangled, I think I liked this better. I enjoyed the Sisterly-relationship and how it played into an overall good message of "women don't need no man...but it's perfectly okay to want/get one". Songs and animation were fantastic too, and the humour was pitched very well (didn't even find the Snowman annoying)

8/10

My latest movie watch is Frozen as well.



I found it utterly charming. Definitely loved that it's trying to undermine typical Disney tropes with a female-centric storyline that isn't just about finding your Prince... I loved that, at the core, it's just a movie about two sisters.

The music was great, Kristen Bell was fantastic, and I agree that the humor was really well-done. The snowman was hilarious.

Definitely recommended.

I really couldn't get into this one. It seemed so unremarkable, especially after Pixar and even something like Tangled, which I thought was pretty good. The songs, the characters, the comedy was all pretty flat for me.
