What was the last movie you saw?

[Bant Warick]

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.

Best start running boy cause I'm getting my shotgun
Batman forever is a terrible film, and don't get me started on Batman and Robin. They just lost touch of the whole dark knight theme and started moving towards the camp 60's thing.
Batman returns is without a doubt my favourite of all five films

 

[HoopyFrood]

Boy? Heh.
Yeah, I agree with Batman and Robin -- so cheesy! I also agree that there is less darkness as the films progress, but I just love the Riddler in Batman Forever, he's awesome

 

[Nesacat]

Just came from watching Beowulf and that was a good movie. Okay ... so I was cheering for the dragon.

 

[HoopyFrood]

Just watched Blades of Glory. I love this film more and more every time I watch it. Chazz and Jimmy are just so lame

 

[Lanista]

I bought "Mortal Kombat" for a fiver...its wicked, despite the silliness. But, boy does Robin Shou have big hair.

 

[HoopyFrood]

Mortal Kombat! I freakin' love that film, watched it so many times when younger, it truly was a film of my childhood. "You wee pathetic fools, I've come for your souls!" "I don't think so!"

'Course, if I watched it now, I'd probably be so bemused. Or maybe not. It was an awesome film

 

[McMurphy]

American Gangster and Beowulf.

Its cgi hasn't aged well, and it's a daft film with bad acting. But the fight scenes are great, even today.

My fave line..."Those were five hundred dollar sunglasses, asshole."

Three in the last two days: Transformers, a bit so-so, enjoyable for what it is, but I expected too much, I think; Elizabeth: The Golden Age, which I really enjoyed, despite the historical innaccuracies - but, hey, we're talking entertainment, not education here; and Zodiac, which I thought was very absorbing, great performances and direction.

 

[woodsman]

Watched: Pulp Fiction, A Hard Days Night and Saving Private Ryan t'other night in a bit of a film session! Looking forward to Queen live at the bowl tonight!

 

[biodroid]

Beowulf - The CG was amazing but I thought it was too offbeat. I guess I have never really heard of Beowulf before so pardon my ignorance. It wasn't a bad movie i was just expecting a Hollywood romp is all.

 

[Culhwch]

The Last Kiss. Not too shabby. Thought the end was a bit trite, though.

 

[tarifa]

The Illusionist - slow but ok, if you didn't see it coming

 

[GOLLUM]

I really liked the Illusionist actually. I also didn't find it slow but well paced.

 

[Kissmequick]

Bubba Ho Tep. Bruce Campbell as Elvis! A nicely silly comedy that had me giggling pretty much the whole way through.

And Lucky Nymber Slevin which I thoroughly enjoyed too- The only problem with those kind of films is my hubby always guesses the ending about half way through. Except for Sixth Sense which he managed to figure out about 10 minutes into the film, and ruined the twist for me. Swine.

Bubba Ho Tep. Bruce Campbell as Elvis! A nicely silly comedy that had me giggling pretty much the whole way through.

And Ossie Davis' last film. A goofy movie, but also a classic in many ways.

Invaders from Mars...the 1953 original. Funny thing; I'd always seen this on our old black and white TV and had no idea that it was in color.

 

[Rosemary]

Watched the newer version of Jane Eyre. So much was missing, especially the 'dramatic atmosphere' that was in the original.

 

[Serin]

The Mothman Prophecies.

 

[Quokka]

Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End, I liked the cinematography/effects and a lot of the humour but it ran for a good hour too long. At times it really had that Disney matinee feel and at others it seemed to be going for Lord of the Rings epic?

Spoiler
The Maelstrom scene was brilliant but it really should have been the finally


Also watched Rambo: First Blood, with the sequels getting more and more over the top it's easy to forget that the first one was actually a pretty decent movie.

And the Sci-fi channel had the first V mini-series from the 80's I hadn't seen that in decades. It was amazing how much of it I remembered, Robert Englund as the goofy alien, the human/alien romance and of course Diana .
