What's the Last Movie You Watched?

[dell71]

Just watched a movie called Attack The Block. It was a fantastic "B" movie. One of those so bad it was entertaining. And I couldnt stop watching.

Hmph. I thought it was entertaining because it was actually good.

 

[Maynard]

yeah that was a pretty entertaining movie. very original. normally those brit accents annoy the fuck out of me, but these characters were great and the dialog was even better

 

[kmanharris]

Super Shark.

Fantastically awful. I suggest watching it while high/drunk with a few friends.

Taken had a baby with Alive. I fell asleep when the plane crashed and haven't tried to watch it again. Supposedly the action is pretty awesome, but i hadn't gotten that far yet.

That movie had me thinking really good afterwards. I really wish I could see it a second time but my theater stopped playing it after just one week.

After thinking about it for a while I did not like the ending at all

 

It's not like something like Blade Runner or Inception where there is valid evidence supporting more than one theory. It is completely ambiguous to the point where there's nothing to interpret, it's just meant to "throw you for a loop".

IDK man, I came away with a pretty confident theory that makes the movie work for me and seem enjoyable.

 

[A Tasty Burgerr]

Explain it? That's certainly possible, just nothing really came up for me I guess.

But wait - isn't that what the movie is about? What to believe and what not to believe, that is the question. Skepticism was the name of the game.

I was skeptical and confused about everything until I heard the Cranberries part, which I then thought to myself - this bitch dun goofed. I was no longer skeptical, I did not believe anything Maggie was saying. So, I'm watching, watching waiting for all these normal people to go through the motions and we find out Maggie's plan all along, but that's not what happened. Things started to get fishy and then Maggie and the girl met. Then they did the handshake. And I was skeptical again. All I was left with was my interpretation of something that was either extraordinary or a con. There's no true evidence either way - except that one glimpse of magic with no explanation.

That's religion in a nutshell. The prophet tells you their story and you either believe them or you don't. You have to make this decision on your own. There's never going to be enough evidence to prove it 100%, so there's always at least a bit of skepticism.

Nothing is for sure. We'll never know, we piece together what we saw and we interpret it. It means different things to different people. Some hate it, some embrace it, some question it. From only seeing it once (I plan on seeing it again, the theater was packed on a Sunday night, too) and thinking about it and discussing it with my bottom bitch, this is what I think is the explanation I like the most -

Maggie was indeed a traveler. The black woman was NOT a federal agent in the sense she made it seem. She was some type of agent, bounty hunter, something with access like she had. Perhaps even a traveler like Maggie. She was sent to stop Maggie from changing the future - their present.

But that doesn't mean it's the only possibility. There are plenty, but that's the one I like the most. The only thing they didn't answer that bothered me is what the black lady said to Morna or whatever the fuck her name was.

I literally got CHILLS when the two started doing the handshake at the end. Throughout the entire movie, I was like fucking christ they are doing this handshake thing a fucking ton I could probably do it myself. I was so sucked into how things were gunna unfold I didn't even realize what was happening until they were mid-shake. Fucking chills.

I think one of the key scenes that people tend to overlook is that Maggie woke up naked in a bathtub in a cheap hotel room. I do believe if the black lady is indeed a cop, she isn't after Magie, but rather the person Maggie took control over when she went back in time. I can buy that an Arsonist low life criminal could wind up in a hotel room and OD'ing n the bathtub and dying which opened up the door to allow Maggie to use her body. That handshake at the end is all you need after that to confirm she is exactly who she says she is. The only thing really want to see and hear again is to hear Maggie talking about how the sound of her voice will be with them after she dies as long as they stand still and listen. This exact moment happens to the main dude after Maggie is arrested and he witnessed the shake. I didn't seem to catch it all because it moved so fast. That's just my theory ont he first watch. I'm sure it'll change with time and more viewings.

You might think it's a little slow at first but I came away impressed. It did not disappoint. I honestly loved it a lot more than I thought I would.

Started better than I expected, but got boring once Gene Hackman appeared and it turned into some weird family drama.

The Grey

Fucking amazing. Unbelievable movie. 10/10, everyone watch it now.

Totally disagree. 5/10

There were some great actors in that movie and it fell on it's ass. The plot line was ridiculous and it was a tired formula with scenes that didn't make sense. Also, the character development was totally weak. I didn't care for any of the characters.

 

For instance the flashbacks to him laying in bed with his sick wife. I'm wondering if scenes about that were left on the cutting room floor.

The Cabin in the Woods: 7/10, great horror comedy with a giant commentary on the state of the horror genre
Super: 6/10, somewhat entertaining, extremely bizarre. You can tell that the director is from the Troma world of film
My Week with Marilyn: 8/10, not knowing much about the life of Marilyn Monroe or her career, this movie was revealing and incredibly sad for a person who was the biggest movie star on the planet at one time.
The Eagle: 8/10, this movie got poor reviews when it came out, but I liked the plot and I thought it was interesting how the Romans had American accents while the Brits had British accents.
The Artist: 7/10, different, yes, but different to the point it bordered on annoying.
Blue Valentine: 7/10, yes, I went on a Michelle Williams kick. This movie was more real than any reality tv is.

John Carter - sloppy/10

All of the dance sequences in Singin' in the Rain are awesome.

Mission Impossible 4 was a little too formulaic.

LAME!

There was nothing "not real" about that scene. Those chair shots were very real, that blood was very real, that pain was very real. That's why his wife got so upset. That's why she's screaming in fear. That's all very 'real'. She was both horrified about what her husband was allowing to be done to himself, and disgusted that he put his family in a position to see it. Foley knew he was panning this series of vicious head shots, and has admitted that one of the biggest mistakes of his life was allowing his wife & children to sit ringside and watch him be maimed.

I guess when they showed his head split open in the locker room, that wasn't real either. Neither were the stitches. Or the concussion.

Anyway, these types of chairshots to the head are now frowned upon in wrestling because of the very real damage they cause. I had no problem with the reactions from the wife, and if anything, I have an issue with how far Foley and The Rock went with the brutality.
