Super: 8/10

A good, dark comedy with something more underneath it about a man who is a superhero. Not a superhero movie.

Still a brilliant work of art.

Hangover 2 - 7.5 / 10

Funny. Pretty much what you'd expect if you've seen the first one.

Ultraviolet - 2 / 10

lol this movie was terrible! 1 point for the visuals making some interesting use of overly saturated colors. Another point for Milla Jovovich in that hot leather outfit near the end of the movie.

Kung Fu Panda 2 - 6/10 just weak in plot and reason. one of the more obvious "cash in" sequels.

Water for elephants 7/10. Chick flick. Reece Witherspoon is worth the ticket price

I watched the original, good movie! don't really know what to rate it, probably 7/10 but it's a good one to watch.

The original score makes me say in my head, BOOM BOOM, BLITZ :olo:

i concur, though i'd rate it closer to 6.5/10 since it was exactly what i expected. would have liked a surprise in there somewhere.

V For Vendetta - 6 / 10

It was OK. Lost me a couple times with those crazy rants of his.
I kind of felt the movie fell short of successfully making the government out to be the 'bad guy' in the movie.

Dunno, I was kind of expecting more from it.

Burton's Alice in Wonderland.
what a snoozefest. it all felt very forced, with the whole Burton/Elfman song&dance. the novelty of the visuals wore off after 5 minutes. the end battle was anything but exciting.
and it fucking annoyed me that Depp got top bill while his entire role could be a) filled by any other person and b) had no real purpose in the movie. Helena Bonham Carter and Anne Hathaway carried the movie all the way.

also, victory dance was audibly cringeworthy.

I sure would be interested. If you can come up with some interesting stuff. It isn't really green lit anyway, is it?

"Hearts Of Darkness"
Interesting and entertaining Doc about the making of "Apocalypse Now". Not your Making-Of-Bullshit from these days. 7/10

"Heima"
Recordings of the band "Sigur Ros" touring through their country, Iceland. But more in a theatrical way than just raw concert-footage. I like their sound, many won't :). 7/10

"Silentium"
Austrian movie about child-abuse at catholic church, generell abuse of women at the "Salzburger Festspiele", murder in generell and two private eyes who'd better not have sticked their noses into all this mess.
Really, really funny and contains a good story with one or two semi-foreseeable twists. The humour might not translate too well to other cultures though. It's as black as only austrians can do it. 8.5/10

Zack And Miri Make a Porno - 5 / 10

Couple funny lines but overall not a very memorable film that I probably wouldn't watch again.

Hangover part 2 4/10

Uninspired remake of the first one. Of course one goes into this movie expecting exactly that, and you can't really blame em for repeating a successful thing i suppose, but jesus - it's almost a literal copy. And everything that worked in the first movie doesn't at all in this one because you already know what's going to happen / what happened in every sodding scene...

Don't know why i kept watching really.

Pirates 4 - 5/10

Nothing memorable about this and they even reused all the music from At World's End. Minus point for obvious cliffhanger ending.

Super 8 8/10

Spielberg only produced, but it felt like his early directing days. It had almost an E.T. feel to the whole film. The train wreck scene was amazing...

Pirates Of The Caribbean Worthless Sequel #3 = 0/10 - No redeeming qualities whatsoever. Johnny Depp is knee-deep in shit projects the last year or so...wtf happened to him?

X Men First Class = 3/10 - Who the fuck cares about this series anymore?

The Way Back = 5/10 - An interesting story but boring.

Hangover 2 = 1/10 - I think I laughed once...during the end credits.

Sniper: Reloaded = 0/10 - Hahahahahahahaaaaa.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 = 0/10 - You'll only care if you're gay.

Fast And Furious 5 = 0/10 - I turned it off after 20 minutes. Total shit.

As you can see, I've been blessed with seeing nothing but garbage movies the last while...and tomorrow I'm going to see Super 8 and since it's a Steven Spielberg film it'll most likely be another POS that I'll rate 0/10. :down:

Yay Hollywood summer flicks. :puke:

All that garbage is no good for the soul... I advise you download a little Norwegian gem called Trollhunter, it'll cheer you right up! :up:

Tropa de Elite 2 - 6/10
Not nearly as good as the first one, where the biggest trick they pull is forcing the viewer into feeling sympathy for a fascist cunt. There was also the frail black recruit with the glasses who looked and felt totally out of place in his squad, but halfway the movie he had magically transformed into a mean bastard who got a rush out of kicking down doors and slapping people around. Which was enjoyable to watch.

In part 2, we see how mr fascist takes over the command of BOPA and attempt to crush the system of corruption in Brasilia, only to see his cunning plans fail miserably... probably due to him not being enough of a fascist cunt. This time around however, you don't feel any sympathy for him - and the whole thing kind of falls flat.

Lot of violent, nasty scenes of vavela shootouts though, so there's that.

I would strongly advice against it, but being that you're on a masochistic quest, this movie is like a cock-ring with electrodes directly plugged in 220v, so you'll love it.

The Mechanic = 4/10 - Yet another assassin movie about an assassin who's fucked over by his superiors and appears to die at the end but doesn't. Oops...spoiler alert.

Super 8 = 2/10 - It takes almost an hour to get going and tries so hard to be like E.T. in both feel and cinematography but is so lame you really want it to be over by the 1 hour 10 minute mark. Stephen Spielberg and J.J.Abrams officially suck ass in my book (the show Lost intimated that J.J.Abrams sucked ass but this movie seals the deal). It seems as if Spielberg went through a checklist of "scenes/shots that were in my popular movies" and just slapped them into the script while J.J.Abrams seems to want an annoying buck-toothed kid in everything he makes.

...and since there's so much mindless retardation and shitloads of military stuff I have almost no doubt that Michael Bay probably had creative input into this POS as well.

True Grit 9/10.

I thought Jeff Bridges did a great job and I was glad the Cohen brothers made it true to the book.

Insidious
2/10

More like hideous, amirite? Really though, i've never seen so much cliche and cheese all wrapped into a single 2 hours borefest. The 2nd and 3rd acts in particular were just laughable and not in a good way. Genuinely one of the worst horror films i've ever seen.

Naked Lunch
5/10

Been meaning to watch this for a while and despite being both a Burroughs and Cronenberg fan, this just left me rather flat. Obviously it's surreal and nonsensical, so watching it with any kind of preconception that you'll understand a single thing going on is a recipe for disaster, but I was just rather bored with it all by the end. Good performances, but it didn't grip me in the same way as Lynch does.

Drive Angry

Bullshit over the top gory shitfest parasiting on the grindhouse hype.
I enjoyed it!

7/10

Agreed. It had been touted as a proper creepy, "scary" kind of horror so I was quite looking forward to it. Went to the cinema to see it too so double fail.

Sucker Punch = 6/10 - A complete mess story-wise but slightly entertaining and full of hot women.

Crazy Heart = 8/10 - I can see why Jeff Bridges won the Oscar for this role. A good film...even if (like me) you're not into country music. The movie has a very "The Wrestler" vibe to it.
