I'll probably wait to watch it on the big screen, especially because I'm running dry on the green stuff at the moment.

Something to note about this thread: It's probably best to post your opinion (however brief it may be) of the movie/s you claim to have watched, otherwise it looks like you are post-paddling. (And no, I'm not singling out the above poster. It happens semi-regularly.)

post-'paddling'?  I like the sound of that.

Definitely entertaining enough to overlook its leaps in logic/plot holes. Gary Oldman is fantastic (but when is he not?)!

Rubber

Rubber is a 2010 French comedy film about a tire that comes to life and kills people with its psychic powers.
Which is strange....but....

In the California desert, a tire comes to life and embarks on a killing spree as an audience watches the events unfold through binoculars.
Very weird movie.

currently watching The King of Comedy.  very good but almost difficult for me to watch.  films featuring self-harming and psychologically ill characters are tough for me to watch.

Safe House.

I was wondering why so many critics didn't like it, afterwards I kind of realized why, it was kind of slow at times and there were also instances when the plot made no sense at all (South African police must be the most incompetent in the world for any of that to be plausible.) But it had a great direction, seemed very realistic in the action almost, it's good they went this route and accepted the R rating (there isn't a lot of profanity making me think it was written for a PG-13).

A Serious Man.  We watched it yesterday.  Anyone see that?  I felt that it lacked denouement.  The characters were well developed, but the story was incomplete.

it also motivated me to download AOL, which is now free and which I haven't used since 2005.  Young Tweed getting in touch with his past.

I've seen it. While I see your point I still loved the movie for the ride it gave.

Witness for the Prosecution

This was.the first film I had seen that featured Marlene Dietrich. She was superb, although at times she seemed like a blond Lucille Ball.

Finally got around to seeing The Tree of Life. Outstanding. Admittedly it is the sort of thing that I'll always like and I can see why others might have a lower opinion and all that, but, meh. Oddly enough the best thing about it wasn't any of the obvious things, but the general feeling of sincerity, something that isn't as common culturally as it once was.

Good to see someone else liked it. It seems to be a love/hate type of movie.
