Rate The Last Movie You Saw
Il Sorpasso (1962) - Dino Risi

Wow -- I needed this.. I went through the longest movie slump in years, even before I found out about a recent death.
When I saw your 5 stars, I thought I'd check it out, even though you didn't have your Top 10 picked (but I remember you having good taste).. The picture looked like a comedy, but when I saw "Drama-film/Drama" I thought I'd watch it. It's just that movies in the comedy genre are usually stupid, and never funny.
This movie is all about life, and it DOES have humor. I liked Bruno so much, too.
Thank you so much, Jeff!

Caliber 9 (1972)
This was a very cool Italian crime flick that I thought was a cross between Melville and grindhouse. A dude gets released from prison, but his problems are only beginning since his mob friends and the cops think he has $300,000 of stolen money stashed. The movie doesn't look or sound very refined, and that only adds to it's effectiveness. Excellent characters and action scenes.

I was completely blown away by it and the way it used lightheartedness to tackle some difficult questions regarding life and its transience. Such multi layered and profound film with great performances.

Mindhorn
With his 80's political incorrectness, solo musical single, useless cyborg eyepatch and cheesy one-liners, Mindhorn is here to bring an Apocalypse of Justice

The Water Diviner (2014)
Pretty slow. Some poor casting choices. Effects were average. Movie had that made for TV or just a Canadian production feel to it. The story did not need to be told, not to me, anyway. I can't even think of one memorable scene. Still, a bit better than Noah.

It was good. Felt a bit too similar to Anomalisa though
7.5/10
Pretty great. Usually I get tired during documentaries but this was definitely an exception.
8/10

Really ? I found this to be unbelievably boring, pointless, and plotless, I'm failing to even remember what the film was about.

The Ladies Man
Typical Jerry Lewis film at this point: cleverly staged and photographed, but completely unfunny. A few gags were amusing, but there were far too little laughs for me to consider it an above-average comedy.

The Desert Fox: The Story of Rommel (1951)
I was hoping to see more of his desert exploits. It was a decent movie.

The Mummy (1999) - Stephen Sommers
- Brendan Fraser always been my #1 movie hero growing up. I've watch this movie a hundred times and it still THAT good every single time. Probably the most entertaining adventure ride of all-time for me with one of the most awesome storyline ever. I love every single scene and that's why I am not interested in the new reboot... No Brendan Fraser No Reboot. thats it thats all.

Il Profeta - 7.5/10
Silly satire on modern society and the relationships. Pretty funny and though-provoking.
