Yeah heyyo, I am new to the forum.

I just got affected by an addiction of movies. I use to be a pretty hardcore gamer, from xbox 360 to pc. Played semi pro for a bit.

I have recently put down gaming to focus more on school, and started watching movies.

I got a sub to netflix on I have VOD on my TV. Its just recently that i got hit by the movie bug and am really addicted to the great works of art, and movies that make you feel emotion.

So I'll list a couple movies that i watched recently and really enjoyed. You guys can tell me what you think of them. They are just my favorite from the past week

Notorious - The story of Biggie Smalls, Interesting, but not the best i've seen all week. Good watch

The Burrowers - A western thriller movie with some twists - a decent watch

About A Boy - I was actually blown away by this movie, some may not like it, but i thought hugh grant was quite good. I Highly Recommend it.

(500) Days Of Summer - Not A love story, interesting movie, good perspective. - Good Watch

The Boy In The Striped Pajamas - A movie about the nazi regime, very emotional and its the story through the eyes of a young boy who does not understand why the nazi's are doing what they are doing to the jews. - Recommended

Running Scared - A movie about a drug dealer who gets himself into big trouble - Recommended

Waterworld - I read some bad reviews about this movie, but after watching it i disagree with a lot of them. - Recommended

Saints And Soldiers - I was bored and decided to watch this, im glad I did it was a experience all the way through the movie - recommended

The Diary Of Anne Frank - A very good informative movie It made me want to buy and read the book it was based on - Recommended


Other Movies I watched :
- Exam
- Graduation
- The Road To Guantanamo - A good documentary
- What happens in vegas

The movies i watched this week. Some gems in there.

Welcome. This place is an abundance of resources for new folks catching the movie bug. Browse around and stay a while!

Of the films you've mentioned above, I only really enjoyed (500) Days of Summer. It's one of my favorite rom coms, plus I have a ridiculous crush on Zoey Deschanel...

Welcome to Movie Forums, DefMars. :)

Welcome to the site, DM. What did you think of Exam? I have it, but have yet to watch it.
Not directed to me, but it happens that I saw this just a few weeks ago, and dug it. Obviously a little gimmicky and I'm sure some of it might feel like a bit of a cheat (no pun intended), but I found it pretty enjoyable even if it's a little too clever for its own good sometimes. :) A good watch.

Wow a Scott Hall/Razor Ramon reference. Awesome!! :D


Anyway welcome to the forum DefMars. I only just signed up a week or so ago but really enjoying it so far. Seems like a nice place to talk about films and pick up recommendations.

I love 500 Days of Summer, one of my favourite films of the last few years. Also really enjoyed About a Boy
