The 1980s were just one blind cliche action movie.

It wasn't until the 1990s that they got back to dealing with real world dilemmas that the 1970s left them with.

Most of my favorite 80s movies don't even really take place in the 80s (Raiders, Empire, Aliens, The Untouchables, Back to the Future). I'd say the Breakfast Club is probably my favorite 80s 80s film.

TRON: Legacy

Weak story and plot, impressive visuals and special effects. So just like the 1982 film, actually. Tongue At least they made good use of Jeff Bridges by having him double as hero and villain.

And I found the Breakfast Club to be pretty overrated. So, yeah.

I just flew back from Perth, and watched "127 Hours" and "Never Let Me Go".  Amusingly, neither has actually seen a theatrical release in Australia yet.  Apparently, the only way to watch them is on airplanes.

Beowulf which was fairly entertaining and all three mad max films which were of course good except the third one which wasn't so great.

Double Indemnity (1944, Fred MacMurray, Barbara Stanwyck, Edward G. Robinson)

decent, but Body Heat was better

George Wallace, the 1997 tv-movie. It's a very, very good movie and definitely one of my favourite movies now.

Glengarry Glen Ross. It was... not the revelatory experience that the internets makes it out to be. It wasn't bad, but really, the best part was the one scene with Alec Baldwin.

This probably doesn't count as a 'movie', but I watched the BBC documentary series Walking With Dinosaurs. Very well done.

127 Hours

It was very good.  If anything, the production should be applauded for somehow managing to make a feature film out of itself.

The Runaways.

It was pretty solid, even if the story was predictable and obvious where it is was going (even if it's a true story, it's still a cliche.) I wished Dakota Fanning didn't look hot in it, that's just wrong and made me feel dirty. Part of me also wonders what Joan Jett and Cherie Curie would think of having two girls from Twilight portray them...they did a very solid cover of Cherry Bomb though. (Granted it's on record that Kirsten Stewart at least personally hates Twilight.)

Both of them were fine with it. Cherie Curie even called Dakota Fanning her "favorite actress".

Plus, it's hard to fault child/teen actors for crap parts like the Twilight movies.  You take whatever work you can to jumpstart your career.

Well, sometmes the whatever you can take happens to be a good move.  She would've taken a Dsney channel role f the opportunty presented tself.

You know I just realized that movie is basically a 16-year old boy's dream movie. Imagine how hot a 16-year old boy would find them, and it's not a kiddie chick flick like almost every movie with mostly teenage girls in the cast.
