^The same. I concur.


Also watched The Green Hornet.

Let's face it, they should have just given Kato his own movie.

Reign of Fire.

It had dragons, so I was happy.

I'm too frustrated to type a review that really conveys how I feel about this movie...

F- (Part of that low score is the medium through which I watched it. Streaming kinda sucks when it buffers)



V for Vendetta

Rather fun movie. While not perfect, it did a decent job at abetting my mood from the above movie. Could have been a little shorter at some points, but not terrible.

Here is the Ultimate Shield of Flame. You'll need to get into sort of a crouching stance and use both arms to use the shield properly. Otherwise you'll be blown away by the flames that are sure to ensue.

Some movies I saw recently:

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps - Got pretty low rating but I thought it was interesting from start to finish. 8/10

Despicable Me - Funny and somewhat touching, but not as funny as Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs and not as touching (or funny) as Toy Story 3. Still fun. 7.5/10

The Runaways - Tells the story of Joan Jett, the first female rock star or something. Don't bother, it's not terrible but not that great either and a lot of objectionable content. I guess if you're into the 70s rock scene it might be worth watching. 6.5/10

Whip It
- Fun movie about the Texas Roller Derby for girls. I liked it, I like coming-of-age movies like this most of the time. It's Drew Barrymore's directorial debute and Ellen Page is always fun to watch. 8/10

It was... interesting O_o

I would give it a C, and that's because I was watching it with my girlfriend and the whole theory of who you watch movies with making them more enjoyable... yeah. If it were just me, D. It had it's moments, and they passed by quickly and were overwhelmed by the feeling of "why am I watching this"

Exactly. I gave it an F because I was watching it over a crappy streaming connection. :P

Otherwise...D would seem appropriate. I DID enjoy a few bits, but it was mostly a, as you said, feeling of "why am I watching this".

The Town - Good gangster movie, I must say. Ben Affleck turns out to be a good director (his previous movie Gone Baby Gone was also quite good) and he acts well in this movie too. Writing's also good. I recommend it. The only thing I didn't like was the thick Boston accent which all the characters had, of course it plays in Boston but I just think it's not pretty to listen to.
8.5/10

Ong Bak 3.

All that needs to be said is that Tony Jaa had more dancing scenes than fight scenes. And the village idiot was the most complex character.

Wow. Incredible. I really, really enjoyed this. Great portrayal of a descent into madness, though due to lots of rather disturbing sequences I can't recommend this one for families.

Got it as a cheesy movie to just laugh at for the sake of laughing.

My gf and I are so weird :P
