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

spoiler about transformers 2 rise of the fallen





































OK, I dont think theres a soul out there who will be surprised when Megatron returns in Transformers 2*. If the current incarnation of the script follows the beats of a previous incarnation (which did not feature The Fallen), Megatron may be getting brought back by the Autobots, who need him to conquer the new menace. But Ive learned that this time he wont be that weird alien jet. This time hes a tank.

Underworld 3: Rise of Lycans.

well i didnt like U1, because it was just too random. action jumped so often to different things that it wasnt really interesting to watch.

U2 was great. Kate Beckinsale (whos insanely sexy btw) was awesome :P lesser number of characters, less jumping, more latex of already said person and overall it was great movie.

U3... i dont know it was random again.
Main Lycan guy - Lucian did his role quite well.
Victor - was just painfuly annoying. That Sonja who was a little simmilar to Kate Beckinsale (the looks) wasnt really interesting or charming and while in the whole movies story her role was as a main character - it felt as if she was a secondary one.
Lycans were powerful throughout the movie, while vampires were just.. i dunno. strong humans living in the dark? nothing supernatural about them.
What made movie crap was insane ammount of illogical things. I wont spoil too much, but the main flaw is creating countless presumably unbeatable barriers and a few minutes later those are squished like nothing. then you are left with thoughts 'why he couldnt do that before?'.
action scenes were kinda crappy.. everything so fast and flashy that apart from blood splurting from peoples throats you couldnt see anything. that made me think that all that was done to hide shitty choreography. underworld 2 didnt have this problem...

Well I believe it has been confirmed that the primary antagonist of the new film will be 'the Fallen' himself. Some kinda a demi-god robot thing. I'm not sure myself, don't really follow Transformers. :P

From an article I read it looks like John Turturro is still awesome, and Michael Bay might be gunning for the Great Pyramids.

Erm, watched Vertigo last night. Wasn't what I expected, but overall a very well crafted film, if a bit drawn out in places. Loved the use of colour.

Valkyrie (or Walküre heh) got good reviews? I had heard it got average reviews. Ah well, went to see it yesterday anyway, and it was pretty good actually. Tom Cruise basically plays himself minus a few body parts, but the plot is intriguing and despite the fact the historical outcome would be known (to most) beforehand, it keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Great casting too, albeit very British/American. Big props go to the guy who played the reservist commander.

Constantine.

was alright, the whole setting was great, however most of the characters were shit. or atleast actors were made to act like dumbasses.
even constantine was cool, however keanu was kinda crap.

Point Break FTW

Constantine was rubbish. And Did anyone else notice when Neo died in the matrix 3 he forms a cross? How... Symbolic.

Yeah I thought that 'stood still' wasn't bad either, better than I thought it would be. About the kid, funnily enough he is played by Will Smith's son so his line about how his dad would 'kick the aliens butts' or whatever made me think of Independance Day. :P

Oh and Keanu isn't great in everything he is in, but he is certainly not a one trick pony: He did the Matrix after Bill and Ted afterall so thats at least three good films. >_>


1 movie i will always like of keanu is POINT BREAK!

Just saw Marley & Me, I thought it was a really good movie, light hearted feelgood, plus it's got Jennifer Aniston so that's a bonus. I wont say to much so as to not spoil it for anyone.
