What was the last movie you saw?

I've finally watched The Simpsons' Movie. It was good, I do love The Simpsons...but it wasn't as funny as I thought it would be. Small parts such as the binoculars bouncing back and hitting the guy made me chuckle, but then unexpected, silly things like that amuse me. Oh, like the hammer hitting Homer in the eye! Heh! But yes, not as funny as I expected and it did seem like an extended episode rather than a film. Still enjoyable, though. And shock, nekkid Bart! I mean, I knew there a scene involving him skating naked, but I wasn't expecting it to be so...revealing :D

Oh, and some great little digs at things around the place. Like Mr Burns: "At last, the rich white man is in control!" or Homer picking up the Bible "This book doesn't have the answers!" Or the rather scary (in that it could easily be real!) scene with the government monitoring all phone calls.
 
Just watched Ken Loach's The Wind That Shakes The Barley.
Set in 1920s Ireland, it's about the troubles and ultimately leads to brother against brother.Quite a good movie.:)
 
Last night I watched Wait Until Dark (1967). To me it is a classic and very well done. Audrey Hepburn was a very beautiful and talented actress.
 
Night at the Museum: A 'groaner' with little genuine humour. Mickey Rooney was funny.

300: Never thought mass killings in battles could be so perrtty :D Better than I anticipated though.
 
Tron. Awesome. I loved the funky special effects and the plot was fun too. It's funny how the movie's become such a cult classic, in spite of not attracting all that many viewers when it came out.
 
The Good Shepherd: Again, a stellar performance by Matt Damon. And Angelina Jolie was pretty good as well. Did not know it was directed by Bobby DeNiro. Does not move very fast but is very interesting nonetheless. I liked it.
 
28 weeks later

I give it 10/10 cause it was the scariest most disturbing Zombie movie i have ever seen. The first zombie attack in the movie was so sudden and horrible and shocking that i was in shock and scared state in the rest of the movie.

The worst was the minutes that wents beteween
zombie scenes those were scarier than any zombie scene cause you expect it to happen at anytime literally seeing things that werent there.

I watched it late at night with my sister and we were acting like kids wathing the movie, trying not to see what was happening etc

The thing they did the best was that every zombie scene was so sick,realistisk that it really looked like people was been eaten alive, they were so fast and horrid that you were scarred until you could relax when someone got attacked again :p


There was one stupid plot hole that the military did when they were protecting the civilians in that storage room.....

But still that couldnt hurt the overall enjoyment of the movie.
 
Conn I couldn't watch that movie. I saw maybe the first ten minutes and had to turn it off. I am sure its good but it gave me the creeps. I wouldn't have slept for a week if I had watched it.

I watched A Very Long Engagement last night, have seen it before but I think its a beautifully done move. The war scenes are so well done and its a wonderful story. A long movie but well worth the watch.

I couldnt sleep after i watched it.

I tried to force myself to dream sweet fantasy(the kind males has easy to dream about....) but the only thing i could dream about was a brit zombie eating me :eek:

I didnt sleep over an hour before i was too tired to dream at all.
 
Its not zombie's that bother me so much, I watched Shaun of the dead, ok so it has humor in it despite being a little violent. I think it was that first zombie attack, that was it for me. I think the guy got bitten by a zombie, so they shot him, ahhhhhhhh, off button quick smart. Havn't they made a sequel or did I imagine that?

More of a prequel :p. 28 weeks later is the film that follows 28 days later.

Oh dear...there's possibly a third film coming out in 2009...which might be called...get this...28 months later. :p

I'm quite sure I've watched 28 Days Later, but I've seen so many zombies films that they all kind of roll into one after a while (well, the recent ones have...the old classics like the Romero films and the Evil Dead films always stand out).
 
I watched A Room for Romeo Brass this afternoon. Its a low budget British film using mostly amateur actors apart from Bob Hoskins who shows up for a couple of scenes. I enjoyed it though it has the same theme as other Shane Meadows films - what happens when teenagers get exposed to an unhealthy adult influence. Its not as nasty as Dead Mans Shoes or Made in England though and has a few laughs.
 
I went and saw the new Die Hard movie Saturday night. I am not a real Die Hard fan but for leave your brain at the door, over the top action, its up there.
 
Airplane! Still one of the funniest movies ever made.... and dont call me Shirley :D
