What was the last movie you watched, and what did you think of it?

^^I enjoyed GBG quite a bit. Casey Affleck was great.

Planet of the Apes. Really fun to see again.

Moses had a great body.

It was pretty good wasn't it? Quite an underrated movie, the car chase is awesome.

PS msdebagain: yeah, river cops, that's the one.

I watched "Lady in the Water" last night, not only did it make it into my top 10 WORST movies list, but it also sucked so bad it syphoned points off of the subtle charms of his other movies for me.

Aw come on! Wow, we really do not agree when it comes to movies...

10000 BC, at the cinema => In a way it was somewhat disappointing because I really like Roland Emmerich and in a way it wasn't because I'd read many a bad review. It isn't really bad, but Emmerich has done many a better movie, this one is average, good but with nothing really standing out, except for Camilla Belle, who really wears her name well, lol. I think maybe this style of narration wasn't the best for Emmerich. Still, it's decent enough if you're looking for a fast-moving special effects filled action blockbuster, just don't expect anything special from it. That being said it's the best "special effects filled action blockbuster" of the year so far, what with Colverfield being shit and Jumper being so disappointing (why Rachel Bilson, why?).

i think one can say with a fair amount of objectivity and universality that lady in the water sucks major ass. it's not a question of diverging opinions, it is simply a lousy movie.

I rented Gone Baby Gone tonight, and I hope it's good. Has anyone seen it?

I really enjoyed it, I like Casey though.
I think you will enjoy it.

And I agree Sput, Lady In The Water was one of the worst movies ever.

Lady in the Water was awful. Really really awful, and everyone I know has the same opinion on it.

I didn't watch the whole movie, but this clip on Youtube of Hayley Mills singing "Let's Get Together" from the original Parent Trap.

It's been like ten years since I've seen the whole movie. I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not they ever explained in the movie why both twins have British accents but their parents are American.

The Devil Wears Prada.

Anne is so butterfaced, and they changed most of the book.
Lame, didn't like it. I knew I shouldn't watch this shit, but it was in tv, so...

**SummerSwelter** · April 9th, 2008, 06:06 PM

'No Country For Old Men'

It just keeps getting better. Bardim plays one of the best villains I've ever seen on film, and Josh Brolin does an amazing job as well.

It's one of those films where each actor just seemed to feed off the other's performances, making them all better as a whole.

Great movie.

I just watched this the other night [for the zillionth time]. I haven't read the book, but I do love the movie.

Death at a Funeral. It's British and fricken hilarious

I love the movie until the very end. I hate admitting this, but I wish she had stayed.

As for Lady In The Water, I went into the movie with pretty low expectations. I expected a sort of offbeat fairytale for adults, so I wasn't really disappointed.
