Rate The Last Movie You Saw

Becoming Mike Nichols - Watch
(It's On-Demand)

River of No Return (1954) Kinda so-so for me regretfully because I really wanted to like this one. Though I gotta admit I was very pleased with the final act.




Forbidden Empire aka Viy(Russian) Cheesey schlock but the demon effects were decent.

I Love You, Man (2009)

A pretty okay comedy/romance with bits of drama thrown in. Stars Paul Rudd as a newly engaged man (to Rashida Jones, hubba, hubba!) who really has no male friends he can hang out with. Jones encourages him, and he goes out on several disastrous "man dates" to try to find a friend. He ends up being buddies with Jason Segel, who is the best friend a guy could have...at first. As a comparison, like most Ben Stiller flicks, Rudd goes through a lot of pain-and-destruction and embarrassment until he has it out with Segel. All ends well, though, and even the jerk played by Jon Favreau has a happy fairy tale ending. My favorite part is Rudd and Segel playing garage band Rush and they're not too bad (if that's them really playing). Good supporting cast including J.K. Simmons, Jaime Pressly, Jane Curtin, Andy Samburg, Thomas Lennon (in a pretty funny small role) and the above-mentioned Favreau. A pleasing enough time-waster. And did I mention Rashida Jones is in it?

Suicide Squad - 5.5/10

Well, I've just watched 2013 flick Delivery Man starring Vince Vaughn. I have somewhat mixed feelings for Vaughn - I used to hate him and his acting quite a lot, but then I saw the Swingers and figured out who he was and what's his thing, so I'm OK with him now. As for this movie, I am not quite sure. Vaughn delivers it in his own way, but the movie has a lot more potential than it shows. There are some cool moments, some absolutely horrifyingly bad, but what annoyed me most about it was the fact that it was a scene-for-scene adaptation of a French movie. That was really sad.

Anyways, a missed opportunity.

too freaky for you,ey?

Gotta love how terrible Papagallo is at trolling. Absolutely noone takes notice of him

Yep. It's awesome.

He goes about listing beloved movies saying how boring or horrible they are. Not saying those ones, but he's done the same with Hitchcock and stuff. It's so obvious he's looking for a reaction and noone has given him one. Well this counts as a reaction but not the one he's looking for.

I really liked this one, lots of things to like although it's a strange little film that feels like it could have been much better.

Yeah, I'm aware of that. I wasn't sure what they were trying to accomplish with that post just now. I thought it was something to do with not putting ratings in a post in the "Rate The Last Movie" thread.

-1/10

6,5/10

Mary and Max - 8/10

Re-watch. Mary lived in Mount Waverly, which was on the line I took for almost 6 months in Australia. Thiis time I noticed the magpies, which are all over that area, those birds woke me up on that first day in Oz

Heartbeats

That's the problem I had. There was little things that worked well and yet, not sure why, things kept coming up a near miss. May be my hopes were really high being a big fan of Mitchum or maybe I need a rewatch and see if those near misses were on my perception. . .

Cell

I went into this apprehensively, the novel was okay but really nothing special (but what the hell, it's Stephen King, let's make a movie about it), I was still kinda excited but apparently whoever made this thought **** the novel because everything is changed, after a shaky (made for TV feel) opening, it goes to people mumbling in dark rooms, I should've known it would be crap after the last time Jackson and Cusack teamed for a King adaption (1408 is the one King story that I found genuinely creepy) and they ****ed it up, no rating as I turned it off after 30 minutes, went to IMDb and realized that many others had too. Maybe I'll try to finish it one day (but I doubt it)
