Quake3World

I didn't find that film funny at all. In fact it was pretty shit.

Amadeus for the 400th time. Still 9/10.
One point less because "Die Zauberflöte" (magic flute) was sung in English.

Hit too close to home, eh?

ong bak 5/10 (5 being 'meh')

Too much of the lovey crap at the end I thought, maybe about half an hour too much.

jesus Paul just spent xmas alone (silicone love sleeves don't count as "company") cut the guy a break, ass-forehead

Crash: 3.5/10. 3.5 points for a few of the performances, -6.5 for its "HI I'M AN IMPORTANT MOVIE" pretension coupled with mind-numbingly ridiculous caricactures AS characters. Has all the depth of a mud puddle. Haggis should be shot from a cannon.

Grizzly Man 8/10

The guy was crazy, but some of the footage is quite interesting. The way the foxes ran after him and how one of the bears took a crap during a fight.

lol, bullseye

anyone seen syriana? the reviews suggest a gritty, multi-narrative take on empire and the global energy crisis, a movie that is to oil what 'traffic' was to drugs

plus it has matt dam :dork:n

lol, was about to post the exact same thing

Just watched SHallow Hal on the Fox Hi Def station.
I was trying to read my book at the same time, so from what I saw it was a 5/10. And I think that's being a bit generous.

you gave it a 5 while reading a book

Either you think i was trying to be excessively funny, and find humor in it, or you think I was trying to be witty with my comment, and are attempting to sarcastically point out that my comment wasn't funny, or you just found my casual observation that this movie wasn't very good, and although I wasn't paying close attention to it I was able to figure this out. Which is it?

the casual observation. if you can't put down a book, then the movie must be unquestionably boring and uninteresting (regardless of the book). the fact that you even gave it a rating of 5 was over the top.

I see. I do tend to read with the TV on all the time though. I'm one of those types that needs background noise in order to concentrate. So, actually, when I do sit down to read I flip on the tv at the same time.

Chronicles of Narnia 5/10 ( meh)

sure, lots of people need some ambience during reading, doing the dishes, etc. although there's no way you can contribute to a movie thread "watching" a flick like that. not a knock, just an observation.

Gladiator 6.5/10

Somewhat entertaining but i didn't really get into it for some reason... maybe it was that computer animated Rome looked far too plasticy, or that the story was entirely predictable.

Wolf Creek - 4/10.

Just another horror story about some friends getting stranded, abducted, and murdered. I've seen the same movie already a million times through the other million movies with the same plot and characters. Predictable from start to finish. But I didn't go into it expecting anything more.

elf

its a generic format movie with textbook beguinin and ending, but the middle was lacking.

5.5 /10

King Kong - 4/10

Utterly disappointing

Syriana - 7/10

interesting, though simplistic in places (the story about the laid-off oil worker turning to islamism was a little one-dimensional. i mean, all the 9/11 and 7/7 guys were western educated and middle-class, not poor and desperate)

Yeah, apart from the being 40 and a virgin part it was spot on.

Domino

Great cast (Mickey Rourke, Keira Knightly, Christopher Walken, Mena Survari, Lucy Liu) doesn't make a great movie. I was expecting another "Spun", but what I got was a big pile of shit.

3/10
