Unstoppable: 8.5/10 - Utterly astounding in its tempo and pace, Unstoppable can be penciled in as the surprise of the year. No, it doesn't explore new grounds in its plot nor does it produce anything overly powerful as far as sentimentality goes, but it does enough to make its audience care about its characters given the fact that they're centered around pure adrenaline and are daring in the face of the darkest and most death defying adversity. Unlike 2009's The Taking of Pelham 123, Unstoppable is thrilling out of the gates and continues to be throughout as the tension slowly, but surely builds as the story moves along. Entirely engrossing, this film will keep you on the edge throughout and the action combined with good performances from everyone's favorite hero, Denzel Washington, who's cool, calm, collective and in control (unlike 2009's Ryder in Pelham 123), and his counterpart Chris Pine, who plays off of Denzel very well and offer the back-and-forth humorous banter in the midst of peril that Tony Scott might as well trademark. Not to go unnoticed is the camera work. Though Scott always has top notch cinematography in his films, the camera's impact in Unstoppable is undeniable and it's beyond impressive. It is not an exaggeration that when the credits roll, you'll feel like you just sat down. The pacing is some of the year's best film has to offer and complements the out-of-control train's growing speed and the increasing desperation of those attempting to stop it. Unstoppable is THE popcorn flick of the year and you won't be disappointed you went. (Except for it's rather anticlimactic finish.) In the realm of its genre, Unstoppable is a flat-out home run.

This is really that good? Wow, might have to check it out. I'm a huge Denzel fanboy, so I'll like it either way, but isn't it basically Speed on a train?

It absolutely is Speed on a train, but hey, it's entertaining, quick, and has Denzel being awesome. It's a really fun watch.

The Warriors

My new favorite movie set in New York/10

I just saw this for the first time last week, movie was so legit. I'm usually pretty satisfied with movies but this one made me want to see how those people live their lives and what not.

Hereafter.
Ho-ly shit what a boring movie. I can't remember the last time I wanted to walk out his bad in desperation.
Eastwood is senile.

If you have a gf that always bitches about not seeing any chick flicks....let her pick this one. She will be apologizing and booking tickets for expendables 2 after this disaster. Would have made a pretty good 3 min short. How they stretched it for 2 hours is scary.

Spirit of the Marathon
I thought this was great, as someone who runs a lot I love seeing running documentaries. Its about 6 people who try and run the Chicago marathon, some of them are newer runners and some have won or come close to winning it before, if you run or have any interest in it at all I'd suggest you watch it.

The Box - Richard Kelly is a one trick pony/10

I called this miss the minute I saw the trailer. Just looks like needless tearjerking for the sake of tearjerking.

I love your second paragraph too, because I too have employed that tactic. Let the girl pick a movie you know is going to suck, just to prove to her that she shouldn't be picking the movies. Works beautifully.

Haunting In Connecticut 5/10

Confusing as fuck.

 

[Palooza]

Observe and Report - Jody Hill is a genius/10

 

[KillaK]

I hate that when I hang out with 5 friends we cant decide what to watch when we use streaming netflix, everyone has a problem with everything. We ended up watching Pee-Wees Big Adventure, what a kick ass movie.

Mesrine: Killer Instinct - This is the first of a two part series of films on the French criminal Jacques Mesrine. This is a well done crime thriller/drama as we are shown the beginnings of Mesrine's criminal activities in France through his jail break from a maximum security prison in Canada. Vincent Cassel does a good job as the lead, and there are some nice, intense scenes through the film. Overall good film.

While this series is over two years old, it has yet to be released for home entertainment in the US, and there are no immediate plans for one to my knowledge. You'll have to use some alternative methods to get a copy, if you're interested.

Foreign films seem to be the best nowadays. Hollywood and even Indy just to Hollywood and also they just steal or remake a good foreign.

Thanks for heads up on Mesrine. Looks good gonna check it out.
