Just watched a movie ? let us know what you just watched with a simple watch, Avoid or if your bored next to it.

Lets face it people dont have the same taste in movies but its pretty simple to work out if you wanna watch it, the Watch or avoid is just a guideline to that genre, so if you like the genre then you will like the movie more than likely.

i'll start

today i watched

Finders Fee - Mystery Indie movie - Watch for sure

Red Eye - Thriller - Only if your bored ( though cillian murphy is creepy :D )


carry it on :D

Yeh I did laugh alot at the Arnie replica towards the end. It seems to make no reference to the fact that in the previous films it said the machine took over in 2004... Otherwise, it was alright. I still hate Christian Bale. Grade A W*nker.

My thoughts exactly, half the ending was different. However, watching it beat doing revision though. :)

Just saw Angles and Demons, not bad, a bit predictable, not as good as The Da Vinci Code.

Went to see Star Trek, I dont class myself as much of a Trekie but I really enjoyed the film. I think Eric Bana's role could have been emphasised, but other than that it was brilliant. Especially how they kept Leonard Nimoy as the "old" spock. I was half expecting to see Shatner pop up, but anyway, well worth a watch.

They have definately left it open for more films aswell :)

I also saw the new Trek Movie first chance I had. It was a great movie; I believe it really adapted to the general audience better than the other movies. Although not a pure fluff trek movie, it shows promise for sequels. I believe the cast has signed for two sequels.

star trek. i never really like star trek before, but the trailer really took me by supprise so i went along tonight to the UK premiere and watched it at my local showcase cinema de lux. It was fantastic, the script, the set pieces and the acting were amazing. Altho the action editing was a little too fast in some places with way too much happening to keep track of everything, but apart from that it was truly a great reboot to a already popular franchise.

They based a lot of the Wolverine origin on a comic series that came out a few years ago. Most comic fans didn't care much for the origin story (making him some weak farm kid named James) but it became canon in the Marvel universe nonetheless.

Honestly it was spot on most of the time. I'm not defending, just saying they put more care into it than I figured they would. The brothers aspect was silly, Agent Zero was like an asian version of Maverick, the Wraith character was completely made up and the way Wolverine lost his memory was really stupid.

Also, jesus f-ing tap dancing christ did they screw up Deadpool. God they need to make a spin off movie and redeem his damn name. Best character in the whole damn marvel universe and they make up some total bullcrap about him.

Otherwise I enjoyed it.

He's known yeh, for the guys who cant die and has spikes coming out of his hands, basically he's a total badass. But that film does nothin else. And that wiki thing aint right. In on of the film when he is "remembering" you clearly see them putting the spikes in. Anywho, CHEESE!

i read in wolverine origin comic that he had those before the whole adamantium skeleton thing. it fit quite well tbh. this one:

umm id actually say he is one of the most popular characters even if some elements of his past are not very clear. wouldnt call him unknown for that though.

X - Men Origins: Wolverine.

Now I watched this on mixed reviews from my friends, some saying Jackman was awesome, some saying the story line added depth to an almost unknown character. My Opinion... Bullsh*t, the Director(s) and those brain boxes at Marvel seem to have conveniently just messed everything together with plotlines lines from left right and centre. Obvious Victor (who obviously was, but received no mention Sabertooth) is integral to the making of Wolverine, but brothers, please, for a start (not claiming to be an X-Men genius, but I watched my fair share of cartoons when I was younger) it’s not even factually correct, the bone spikes in his hand, I recall one cartoon episode many moons ago of the scientists implanting the spikes in his arms.

For an all-round cheesy movie with an undeniable predictability go see it. But it doesn’t add anything to the previous 3 X-men movies apart from Wolverine having a troubled past. Tell us something we don’t know!

I’ll have my Stilton with some crackers and a spot of port.

Quantum of Solace.

it was Ok. Id say it was actually simmilar to Hitman. Why? Action and place of action changed way too many times too often. Any other simmilarities? No one will remember it after a year or two.
Daniel Craig shined when he had time to act in Casino Royale. In this movie with so many flashy fast moving stuff - he didnt even have a chance.
Overall - quite a weak Bond movie. Hopefully next one will be better. Oh and without M.J.Fox as a cameraman hopefully.

Defiance.

Another Daniel Craig movie! haaaa! Well i mostly got it so i can see how this new guy acts in different scenario. Not a bad movie tho!
Some stupid attempts at speaking russian language, but otherwise it was cool. It was also filmed in my country (altho in movie they are supposedly in a different place) so it was quite cool to see those woods that to my eye, really looked like my countryside : )
