Let it Be, on what appeared to be a homemade LD transfer I borrowed from a friend (I HIGHLY doubt it was hers, probably her dad's.) Man, Paul was bossing everybody but Ringo around. No wonder they broke up. I liked how it was a documentary straight through - just the Beatles being the Beatles. Shame it probably won't get a proper release until they're all gone.
Somehow I missed this post. The BAD thing about this film is that it took almost everything out of context. It was the way it was edited. Paul sure does come across as being bossy, but he had good reason to be, and all the reasons are not shown. Conversations are also in fragments, so the viewer never gets to hear what is truly going on, and in the correct order of events. The real destructive fighting during theses sessions was between George and John. This is one of the many reasons this film is still held back for release.

I need to watch Moon, it has been recommended to me multiple times. Sounds like Duncan Jones needs to be on my radar of directors to keep an eye on. If I like it I will have to add Source Code to my list of movies to watch.

Sucker Punch, what an amazing movie. 10/10.
Awesome! Glad someone else liked it. All the bad press feels a bit predetermined and a little unfair.

I found Paul to be a bit flat. It did have some good bits but it wasn't funny enough to be a comedy and it wasn't interesting enough to be an alien movie.
maybe that's just me.
It's probably not just you, I'm sure there are others who would agree. But I can say my friends and I, and the audience we saw it with, were lolling on the reg. I think the sheer number of geek-cred nods alone earned it half a star (the Cantina Band song played by a country western bar band was particularly funny to me). In all, I'd give it a 7.5/10.
This morning I watched Billy Wilder's Witness for the Prosecution. Not my favorite Wilder flick, but great performances by Charles Laughton and Tyrone Power (I'm not a Marlene Dietrich fan, and she didn't do anything unique in this film to change that). Agatha Christie movies can be hard for me to enjoy, because I'm always expecting the unexpected and trying to figure out how she's going to trick us at the end. Sometimes her plots are too convoluted to be believed, but this one really worked for me.
EDIT: Damn, Ruta Lee was fiiine in 1957.
Your mom was fiiine in 1957! Wait a minute... you're not Fink!
Deliverance.

A light, heartwarming rom-com!

I'd have to agree.
The Ninth Configuration
Second time in as many months. A great film with a great bar fight!

GI Joe: Rise of the Cobra
I really enjoyed it. It was a mindless action movie, yes, but sometimes that's all you need. Would I watch a sequel? Heck yes.
Sigh. Terrible, terrible movie. I sometimes wish my wonderful, wonderful review had ever come out to enlighten terrible, terrible people like you how terrible, terrible that movie was. =P

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.
Shrek 1 - 4. Still funny.

I hate to admit I (sort of) liked it to. I understand it sucked, but I was still entertained.
I guess he got, got told.
it was based on GI Joe - just how good could it have possibly been? - you know, that line of action figures that was just the same guy painted different colours...;)
TK, how would you rate Hobo with a shotgun? - i've sorta been looking forward to it. Is it fun?
re: Deliverance - there were actually some quite good moments if I recall, although it sorta gets overshadowed by being 'that ass-rape movie'. shame.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty good. It was actually nominated for a few Academy Awards, supposedly.
And I was surprised to hear a Primus sample in it.

I take it this is a comment on how old I am. Too bad, I was all set to add you to the mom list.
Your mom was all set to add you to the mom list.
