What was the last movie you saw?

[HoopyFrood]

Ah, a classic of the 'no hopers travelling back in time to abduct historical figures in order to pass their high school test' genre...

Indeed! I'd forgotten just how dopey and amusing Bill and Ted were. A very entertaining film, especially as I hadn't seen it for years.

And I have to agree, Venom wasn't great (and should've been used much more) but in that train wreck of a film, he was the best bit. Oh, Peter's dancing. *Shakes head*

 

[Nesacat]

That man should never have been allowed to do any dancing, especially on a movie. I do like Bill and Ted. It's goofy, does not pretend to be otherwise and is a whole lot of fun.

Flags of our Fathers: Incredible cinematography. Clint does it again. Felt it dragged at some bits. But overall, good story about how the war was "sold" to Americans.

Elizabeth - the Golden Age. We were getting well into the Spanish Armada and no sign of Francis Drake - was this absurd bit of history-schlock going to make Ralegh defeat the Spanish? And then suddenly there he was - on a ship. But Ralegh still did the heroics. Not altogether unenjoyable and Cate B. certainly much less annoying than she was as Galadriel.

PS. I do agree Spiderman 3 was dreadful!

Harry Potter & The Prisoner Of Azkaban.

I've never read any of the Harry Potter books or seen the films. The DVD happened to be around so I just gave it a look. It's ok, but I'm not bothered about getting into the whole series.

 

[GOLLUM]

Yep, I saw Order of the Phoenix this week. It was OK but nothing special.

 

[Hilarious Joke]

I really liked Order of the Phoenix, which is strange because I didn't have very high expectations.

I saw 'Pursuit of Happyness' on DVD on friday night, I found it somewhat inspiring.

Two Disney films yesterday, Bridge to Terabithia and Meet the Robinsons. Bridge was alright, but having read the book some of the emotional impact was taken out of it. Robinsons I really like. Very zany, but a lovely story as well, I thought.

Sicko: Another great and entertaining documentary by Michael Moore. Makes me proud to be a Canadian. Just outrageous.

Thanks for the reminder.

Barber of Siberia. Pretty good. I always liked Julia Ormond.

Sunshine. Hmmm, I know it had a CERN scientist as special advisor, but there's alot of stuff that don't make no sense to me. Its okay as a thriller, although I'll agree with other posts that it does sort of lose it towards the end. Very pomo and ultra-derivative. When they're eating around the galley table with chopsticks I expected an alien to burst out of someone's chest. Lots of 2001 ripoffs (homages). It reminds me a bit of Event Horizon, which I enjoyed.

Watched Sunset Boulevard last night - wonderful movie - and I'm ready for my close up Mr de Mille

 

[HoopyFrood]

Just been forced (OK, it's not so bad, I guess) to watch The Sound of Music.

 

[Spade]

Watched The Prestige for the umpteenth time, A+; then Lions for Lambs, C+; and High Crimes, C

LOL. I dozed through most of this as a kid, wondering when the fight scenes would begin

 

[tangaloomababe]

Spade: I could watch Prestige over and over, I love that movie, far better than The Illusionist!!!

I sat through The Heartbreak Kid with Ben Stiller. I didn't really enjoy it at all. I thought it might be good but really I just don't see Ben Stiller as humerous, I should have gone on past experience of Meet the Parents and Meet the Flockers, neither of which I liked. Infact Meet the Flockers has the destiction of being the ONLY movie I have ever left the cinema before it finished!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[woodsman]

I thought Meet The Parents was ok, but not the sequel....

Just rewatched Dude where's My Car Actually love this film. Just pure randomeness plus the fact I find myself rrelating to the two leads and that could be one of my dreams.

Rewatched Fight Club as well, still awesome in my opinion!

 

[HoopyFrood]

Fight Club is an awesome film, I keep meaning to watch it again sometime soon.

Just watched Batman Returns. A good film. I prefer Batman Forever, though. Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carey just make that film.

It's definitely my favorite film after The Lord of the Rings. I'm going to introduce my mom to it tonight. I even bought the book thinking I was going to enjoy it more... nope. The film stands head and shoulders above it.
