Ah yes, Martin Sheen. Funny, those ups and downs in an actors' career. For a time during the 1990s, it really seemed he'd be stuck with doing embarrassing b-movies forever. Low points included playing cheesy villains in Project ALF (the TV movie sequel to the TV show ALF) and the infamously horrible superhero film Spawn. Then came The West Wing and it literally saved his reputation and his career. Since then, he's cast again in movies like Martin Scorsese's The Departed or good superhero films like The Amazing Spider-Man.

LOL, I can't believe I didn't know that was Charlie Sheen's dad.

The Hunger Games. There was a pacing problem, I felt like it was too long even though also felt like there were bits from the book left out, which almost always happens but in this case was a bit too obvious since characters were brought up as if they were important but got little screen time. However the movie was quite visually impressive and worked. Ending was kind of weird, it was like a disguised sequel hook, but I'm sold on seeing the sequel.

I took my 15-year old sister to see the Katy Perry movie yesterday; I like her music too myself. It was pretty good.

Amazing Spiderman.

Long. WAYY too long. Too many boring scenes of characters talking about nothing I cared about. But the action and style were better tha Raimi's. The sequels should be better.

Savages.

Be aware beforehand that the ending will piss you off, and you'll probably enjoy it more. It was very solid up until then, and then it's as if Oliver Stone wanted to pull a prank on the audience.

Yes, I saw that too and had heard the ending was awful.  All I could do was laugh when it happened.

Ah, that brings back memories. Remember watching that in the cinema when it came out. It is a pretty great film.

Last night I watched Days of Heaven by Terrence Mallick. Not as good as Badlands, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit.

The Amazing Spiderman


I would have preferred Raimi's version. But I absolutely loved Martin Sheen as Uncle Ben.

Moonrise Kingdom by Wes Anderson. I actually thought it was one of his best.

Bobfat Goldtit's new movie God Bless America

If you like dark dark comedy and hate most of the current pop culture in the west, you'll love this movie.

The Dark Knight Rises

I think this Chris Nolan fellow could be going places.

The Dark Knight Rises

Commentary should probably go in the more spoiler-proof dedicated thread.

Torch Stone Trilogy. Very gay but rather touching.

Before that I re-watched Tommy.

Saw The Social Network the other day (I'd already seen some of it before). Difficult to follow at times (especially around the mid-point or so) but a good flick overall.

Rebel Without a Cause. The thing that dates it is the score - very 1950s. Everything else about it is pretty timeless.

Valhalla Rising and Pan's Labyrinth, the former being pretty sub-par by my standards and the latter being a Freedom Film while reinforcing my already deep disdain for Falangism. xD

Watched American Psycho and Dirty Harry for the first time last night. Thought they were both very good. Clint Eastwood has the best faces.

Didn't really get the end of American Psycho though. Had he just been imagining everything?

Watched Lenny. Could've won Best Picture if it wasn't made in the same year the Godfather II or Chinatown was made.

NIAGRA

Clearly Hitchcock influenced. Joseph Cotten is good as always. Marilyn is a babe (...as always).
