ehhhhhhhh.........almost like The Green Mile but with Denzel.



waste of time......dumbest one of them all but verizon owed me a free rental, so used it on this

Watched Margin Call today. I personally enjoyed it because of the subject matter, but beyond that it really had a nice pace to it. It wasn't too slow where it became boring, but it was slow enough to understand the implications of what was occurring.

Amazing

Side Effects - Very good flick with a lot of layers. I expected it to be some pharma-version of Contagion and it went in a completely other direction and it worked.
Perks of Being A Wallflower - Top 7 film of the year, for me. So damn good. Maybe it is because Emma Watson with short hair looks like my post-HS GF that was a good friend of mine in HS...but she looked fire in this film. Characters were deep and well portrayed. Probably the best "teen" coming of age story in a LONG time.

Was planning on skimming through to my favorite parts, but ended up watching the whole thing.

A Good Day to Die Hard - I'm a huge fan of the series, so of course I was going to see this one day 1. I'll start off by saying it's definitely the weakest of the series. It's not bad, just doesn't pull you in. The main problem I have with this one is the antagonist. He just doesn't grab your attention. When he dies, you're just sitting like thinking "meh, whatever." It's not like when Hans Gruber fell off the building, when John blew up the plane, when he took down Simon Gruber's helicopter, or even when he shot himself to kill Thomas Gabriel. You didn't feel that 'hell yeah' moment when bad guy died, b/c you just didn't really give a rats ass about him in the first place. Other than that, it wasn't bad and I think they just missed having something decent with this one. Give the movie another 30-45 minutes and make the villain some character and make him feel like a villain.

My ranking of the five movies: 1, 3, 4, 2, 5

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Beasts of the Southern Wild - Quvenzhané Wallis is a damn force in this flick.
Life of Pi - Good, but missed on key Bollywood dancing sequence.
Les Miserables - Good adaptation...but its long and lost me a few times.
Amour - I say this with no hyperbole...saddest movie I've ever seen. 2h7m of despair watching an old lady die.

I've never watched any Die Hard movie, so a few days ago I said fuck it and watched all 4. I'll be honest, I think my attention waned by the 4th, because I just turned it off, and I ranked them in the exact order they came out (1, 2, 3, 4). I've been told 2 is the worst, though I enjoyed it more than 3, but I think by hour 6 of McClain I was done.

[Palooza]

McClane can't carry the movie on his own. The second one sucks because he gets no help - The original he has Alan Rickman, the 3rd he has Sam Jackson and Jeremy Irons and the 4th has Timothy Olyphant. I rank them 1,3,4,2. Won't see the 5th until there is a DVDrip, but you'll be sure to see it in my 2013 in film thread next year.

West of Memphis - pretty amazing stuff. especially the stuff about terry hobbs

[A Tasty Burgerr]

I guess this is for Houston/Dell, I dunno if anyone else is really into old movies. I have to write a term paper about 2 filmsfrom the same non-English pre-WWII director (that we didn't watch in class). I'm deciding between:

Lang's M and Testament of Dr. Mabuse
Renoir's La Grande Illusion and either Boudu Saved From Drowning or The Lower Depths
Buñuel's L'Age d'Or and Los Olvidados

[dell71]

If it matters, I'm a huge fan of M so I'd go with Lang.

[Leftwich]

Terrible acting by most everyone except Brittany Snow and the one guy who runs the thing. If you like to squirm in your seat this is a good movie to watch but beware the acting is ass.

[Aso]

Looper - fucking amazing movie in my opinion. I loved it.

I definitely want that leather jacket too.
