Here are 2 I've watched

War of the worlds - Great movie to watch in surround sound on HDTV. If you can suspend your disbelief long enough it's a fun movie.

Batman Begins - I was really surprised by this movie. I thought it was going to be uber lame but it wasn't bad. Pretty good story line for a Batman movie and while it was somewhat over the top it wasn't as far fetched and Hollywood'ish as some of the more recent batmans.

 

[jacksonpt]

Batman Begins is the only thing close to a new release I've seen recently. Thank god I didn't pay to rent it.

Might be checking out The Fantastic 4 tonight. Will be renewing my Netflix subscription soon, so I should have plenty of new movies for my library.

 

[valve bouncer]

Man on Fire- it was OK, clever use of subtitles I thought.
Ron Burgundy- by the beard of Zeus it was good.

 

[stevew]

Walk the Line....ehh

Derailed....double ehhh

 

[stinkyboy]

The Johnny Cash movie = Nothing earth shattering...

 

[geargrrl]

We rented Murderball this weekend - I though it was terrific. It's a documentary mostly about the guys on Team USA for wheelchair rugby, aka "murderball". These guys are some tough and inspirational mofos, and if you ever want to know if/how quadraplegics have sex, your questions will be answered.

Now, I thought W/W sucked big time... but different strokes for different folks I guess.

gg.

The Johnny Cash movie = Nothing earth shattering...

agree. It would be hard to top Ray as a musician bio flick.

[LordOpie]

Evil Alien Conquerors : sucks, don't bother, even if you're stoned.
Cypher : Better than I expected.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang : Better than I expected.
Motorcycle Diaries : Awesome
Serenity : Awesome

 

[TreeSaw]

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: Pretty good
Corpse Bride: typical Tim Burton...good movie
Batman Begins: Better than I expected
Fantastic Four: Wasn't bad...nothing earth shattering though

I went to a fundraiser for adaptive sports here in Oregon and they showed that film. I really enjoyed it and thought it was very well done.

Has anyone seen Grizzly Man?

 

[narlus]

last tango in paris (now i know ALL about the infamous butter scene...brando's acting is incredible, though)

sexy beast (enjoyable UK gangster-type flick; ben kingsley steals the movie)

 

[Ciaran]

Harry Potter: Not bad. Fluffier then the last one which was the best of the Potter flicks so far. I've never read the books so I don't know how they compare.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Good but the book is still better... way better.

Cinderella Man - Meh. It's a remake of ROCKY set in the early 20th century. Renee Zelwegger sucked ass in this one. She's good as Bridgette Jones but I think that's about it. And she makes an awful brunette. What's his name is OK. Basically a reprisal of his character in Gladiator. Much like Keanu and Stallone he is best in movies where he doesn't have to speak.

The wife and I are going to go catch the Wallace And Grommit flick tonight at the cheapy theatre. Can't wait for that one, but I am a W&G fan.

 

[beamer]

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-It gave me nightmares.

I forgot about those two. Charlie & The Chocolate Factory was good and I enjoyed the W&G movie too!

 

[McGRP01]

Wallace and Grommit was cool...I liked it.

 

[the BIG cheese]

Jarhead - the reason I'm not in the army. Just for kicks I rented his other film Dead Man with Johnny Depp....it was decent.

Fast Cheap and Out of Control - an oldie but a goodie....the guy that studies the naked mole rats kinda looks like one.

Animal Love - A german documentary about people that are completly devoted to thier animals. Bizarre... Another one the guy did was Jesus I Know, see it if you can find it.

Pickpocket - a 60's french movie about a pickpocket. I thought it was great, it made me want to ride the subway and stick my hands down other peoples pants.

Dig - After the movie, you will have a strange urge to buy a Dandy Warhol's CD

Rent - Rent it, and try not to fall asleep.

Aeon Flux - oooooo...ahhhhhh special effects

Thumbsucker - "what does a ****** feel like?" "I hear it's the softest thing in the world"


See what happens, you cut back your smoking to save some money and to live longer, but you end up wasting your life and money on movies

 

[beestiboy]

Saw II..."I want to play a Game" I thought it was much better than the first and I really liked the first.

Harry Potter pretty good job of translating 760 pages into 2.5 hours of film

I thought Batman Begins was really good, it wasnt cartoonish at all.

Charlie and the Chocolate factory...how could you not like it Depp and Burton together again for the first time.

Just cancelled Netflix may have to restart it in about a month and catch up on things.

 

[Echo]

I've been getting to the bottom of the barrel on my Blockbuster by mail account. Watched:

"Sideways", didn't like it, figured out the ending within the first 15 minutes.

"Big Fish", liked it, better than I expected.

"G3 Live in Denver", Satriani and Via kicked ass, Malmsteen was an embarassment to himself and the video.

"Shaun of the Dead", funny, better than I expected.

Tonight I'm going to see the Narnia flick, and I hope to catch the new HP flick soon.

Shaun Of The Dead ws pretty good. I also thought it was better then I expected.

I am torn on the Narnia movie. Sadly I don't think I can go see it. I have too much of myself invested in the books.

 

[Tenchiro]

The new War of the Worlds wasn't as bad as I expected. But it did nothing to capture the spirit & humor of the book.

I watched the most recent Harry Potter and it was good like the rest but did end abpruptly.

 

[Zark]

Kingdom of Heavan.....Kingdom of sh*t. Does anyone else wish Orlando Bloom's head was severed by the end of the movie?

Haven't seen much else lately

 

[bluebug32]

Finally saw Manchurian Candidate -- very good and highly engaging

Lately the third season of That 70s Show has been worked through thanks to Rob's Netflix. On tap for this weekend is Mr. and Mrs. Smith and March of the Penguins. Nothing great has hit dvd lately, so with the help of a few beers, these shouldn't be too bad.

 

[BMXman]

Walk the line
Hero
Team America world police
Woman though art loosed
Aeon Fulx

They were all ok....Woman TAL was pretty good though...D

 

[kinghami3]

Batman Begins Even better than the Tim Burton ones (I'm a little obsessed with Batman)
Aliens: Resurrection - ehh, not as good as the first two, better than the third
Harry Potter - a lot of fun, worth seeing
Gross Point Blank - loved it, a lot better than I thought it would be, good comedy action romance flick.
Murderball - not as good as I was hoping, but an interesting look at Quadriplegic Rugby.
War of the Worlds - Good, followed the book more than the first.

 

[blt2ride]

I just saw "Dust to Glory," and I finally saw "Lords of Dogtown."

 

[Rockland]

High Tension - French. Suspense. Movie started out frickin amazing. Pretty damn scary (which is something few movies can claim anymore), but it all turns to crap by the end. They incorpoprate a retarded twist and ruin it.

Kung Fu Hussle - Finaly got around to seeing it. Alot of fun.

 

[sleepinggiant]

Jarhead-Liked it a lot
Harry Potter-Entertaining
Mr. and Mrs. Smith-Good
Aeon Flux-Better than expected

 

[jimmydean]

Lords of Dogtown Thought it was well done and the cameo's are worth the rental alone

Crash (with Brendan Fraser)= rented by mistake and it was great!

Chicken Little = Even my 5 year old daughter thought it sucked

 

[kinghami3]

Crash (with Brendan Fraser)= rented by mistake and it was great!

heh, last night we stole a couple movies from Blockbuster by accident. The first person out the door picked up the movies from the counter, and the last person out, not realizing that the movies were already picked up, also pick up some movies on the counter that someone was returning. This wasn't realized until we got to their apt. I will return them today.

 

[Changleen]

Batman Begins Even better than the Tim Burton ones (I'm a little obsessed with Batman)

 

[Changleen]

Recently I've been watching:

Batman Begins - Great. Best Batman by far.
Team America - Fianlly got round to renting it. Fvck yeah. Was pretty good.
Anchorman - Greatest comedy of all time, especially with a little doob in ya. I've seen it like 8 times now. Each time you watch you notice more retarded sh1t in the background.
Family Guy season 3, 4 and 5 off the internet, because we're like 2 seasons behind in that show over here.

 

[Urban FR'er 666]

SAW II, this movie is so suspencfull, constantly keeping you on the edge of your seat, and some real goarie stuff guarrentied to bring her closer to you(if you kno' what I mean)!!!

House of WAX, Two Words: "CATASTROPHIC"-"MELTDOWN"!!! Very good movie!

 

[hooples3]

I highly recomend Oldboy.. it has subtitles so be warned.. awesome movie though.. best i have seen all year, its out on DVD now. it is a total Mind phuck

Mine wasn't that bad. Somehow it got added to my Netflix. I don't recall adding it and my wife swears she did, but it was an odd but great flick.

is that the korean one about the guy that was locked in hotel?

 

[MizN8]

Oh please..........I saw "Rent" and it was awesome but you have to be a lover of musicals to appreciate it.............what can I say I was a choir geek.

Saw "Pride and Predudice" this week...........it was a good remake.......

D

 

[MizN8]

Also took my 12 year old to see the latest Harry Potter flick and it was pretty good too......the cinematography was awesome................big improvement over the first film.

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Walk the Line
Kingdom of Heaven - Turned it off after about 40 min.
Big Fish - worst movie in history
Hitch - yawn
Star Wars Episode III
LOTR 2 and 3 :love:
Hotel Rwanda
