Knowing
a few parts that try to be creepy, and a few actually great disaster scenes, but the rest is corny.
6/10

Is that the movie with the boy in de deserted ghetto? The name rings a bell and I have been looking for that movie forever.

No that's a different movie.

Che

Finished part two yesterday. Che is a decent biopic of one of the most influential figures in history. However, the movie is way too long, but Benicio Del Toro's stunning performance somehow makes it less boring. I think a movie about the icon of pop culture could've been more exciting and emotional.

8/10 for a biopic.

Couldn't resist commenting on this since it's at the top of the page but "most influential figures in history" is a real stretch. At most he was an influential figure in Cold War, mostly in South America. There are plenty of much more influential people just from that time period though. Simply because they aren't on t-shirts doesn't make them inconsequential, and the reverse is also true.

[Fragony]

He was influential for some people alright, nobody could murder whole family's like Che.

Sounds like the makings of an interesting backroom thread.

Inglorious Basterds was out-freaking-standing. I can some it up in one sentance...

"Let me introduce you to my friend, The Bear Jew!"

what about...

"Well I speak the most Italian, so I'll be your escort."

followed by:

"Bon Giorno!"

Intimite Enemies, french warmovie about the war in Algeria. They are bastards but they aren't glorious, truly outstanding war-movie

[Ibrahim]

I want to review "Alone in the dark" made a a certain uwe boll (I probably mispelled it). Its supposed to be based off a video game, but it looks nothing like it. the story is inconsistant, it has a convoluted plot that is no plot, a paradox that actually defies the laws of physics. It has a scene where all the action is shot in the dark (making us miss the action), then a ridiculous scene where a bullet flies 10 ft away from a zombie woman and yet somehow kills her dead, and a woman who slaps a guy after hugging him, then goes to his house and bungs with him-I mean WTH?!! a woman who supposedly died rears her head up as the protagonists leave her(?!), and there is this nervously shocked man who can survive bullets, broken glass, car accidents, and falling, but can't survive a rusty spike to the belly, and the protagonist makes this wierd street fighter style kick. and the worst part is, they ripped off the most sacred movie to me: the evil dead

rating: FB, (i.e -oo/10) those oo are supposed to be the infinity sign

ask these three if you don't believe me! (warning: may be coarse and explicit in insulting both the director and the movie)

Gamer
excellent movie, a must-see.
10/10

[Decker]

I just saw Gamer myself and I'd have to say a 10 outta 10 is to much for a movie such as gamer. Interesting premise and all but the whole movie fell flat. It was one of those movies that needed to be longer and flesh out some more characters and story arcs. All-in-all.... pretty lame from my point of view for a movie that could have had a lot more potential.

4-5/10

Watched it again, needs more hyperbole, this is the best war-movie. Very realistic characters, very convincing battles (almost never see any enemies), but the big star of the show is Algeria, so foreign and hostile.

Saw The Dark Knight again recently. I have to say I really like it, especially compared to other super hero movies (recently saw both the Watchmen and Wolverine...).

[Dutch_guy]

Anyone seen 9 yet? Looks pretty interesting for a cartoon.

The animations and general idea behind the movie are great, but in my opinion the plot was a tad too simplistic - it left a lot to be desired. It could have been better, but I wouldn't say it was a waste of money.

Oooh, great preview, gonna have to see if that's available in the U.S.A.

Hmm. Hard to tell if it was properly released here. Only available used ... which could mean a few different things ...

[Fragony]

Tried the French title? 'L'ennemi intime'

[Lemur]

Looks like it was never released in the U.S., either theatrically or on disc, which suggests that the "used" DVDs on Amazon are of uncertain provenance (cough cough Hong Kong cough cough).

All of which means there is no iron-clad fool-proof legal way to see the movie here. Which sucks.

"IT'S A BIIIIIIINNNNNNNNGOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"Is that how you Americans say?"

Guess... great movie, little slow, but good all the same. Hot French lass as well.

Not to mention the even hotter German one

read somewhere that Megan Fox is actually a guy. thoughts?
i dont believe it though.

[Ronin]

Saw Jennifer's Body. Was actually not bad at all. They don't skimp on the sexyness of Megan Fox, but at the same time it doesn't feel like that's all the movie is about. It was very funny, parts of it were suspensful, and it was overall an enjoyable experience.

Plus Megan Fox is hawt.

That movie is full of false advertising!!

We were promissed boobage!!!.... there is no boobage....

Which is just plain ridiculous. It's rated R here in the States, if you are going to go R, you may as well throw in the gratuitous topless scene.
