It was......um, interesting. Porn with a plot and decent acting.

I liked this movie quite a bit, it had some nice moments.

Watched The Godfather for the first time. It was pretty good, I have to watch part two sometime.

I just watched these two again over the last couple of nights, they're amazing. I also prefer the first but the second is definitely up to par.

The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat

Kinda expected more from it!  None of the stories really came together in any sort of way (I mean within themselves, not all of them together as a whole).  I guess it was interesting enough to check out the first Fritz movie, but that's about it.

Cromartie High School: the Movie. The show was better, but it was pretty good except that the plot took a drastic turn about halfway through.

My daughter and I watched Space Chimps. It is, without a doubt, one of the worst children's movies I've seen in a long time. I'm SO glad it was a rental and not a purchase.

The animation was probably the worst part of it, but the voice acting wasn't anything impressive. Even with Patrick Warburton and Jeff Daniels, I couldn't get past how campy the movie sounded. Granted, it was supposed to be a kid's movie, but even kids wouldn't forgive the animation flaws.

My friend had to watch Adaptation (excuse me, Adaptation.) for a class and I went with her.  I didn't like it at all, especially when the whole thing in Florida started to happen.  Apparently it's CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED and a lot of reviews call it an EPIC STRUGGLE but I just could not see it that way at all.  It just seemed like "let's watch this guy's frustration oh no he can't talk to a girl BEING CHASED THROUGH THE SWAMP WITH A GUN THE END".  It's not that I MISSED the point of the movie, I just wasn't IMPRESSED by the point I guess.

adaptation owns. the ending blows though, even if it's a commentary on HEH MOVIES it's still a cop out. its also the movie that proves nicholas cage does shitty movies for money because he can act.

Cashback.

Now, I had no clue what htis movie was at all, besides being a comedy, and I watched it with my parents, which was a little weird at the beginning because almost every other second there was a naked girl.
That being said, it seemed that an art student directed the film, but I mean that in a good way.  There were a lot of "experimental" shot angles and quirky little things here and there, but the message that the film gave, and the overall moral of the story, proved to be very insightful.  Plus, most of the movie they were working in a grocery store, and I work in a grocery store, so I found it more engaging.

I saw Australia sunday night.

Average movie. I would maybe recommend it as a family movie or something...?

Very awkward though, the way they try to sexualize Hugh Jackman. I went late at night, and got blown off by my friend, so I ended up just staying anyway. I was the only one in the entire theatre, and I laughed out loud about the 3rd time they had Hugh Jackman pouring water over himself without a shirt or something.

Yeah man, I mean I was following along with it for the beginning but once all that ending stuff happened all I could think about was "you are falling into your own dang trap here, why are you pretending that you aren't"

I've been watching a few of these "mumblecore" movies recently. They are kind of the anti-movie in the sense they don't have tight structures or plots that go somewhere. They have elements of Neo-realism, basically teenagers and twenty somethings talking, trying to find out what its all about. It's not as pretentious as it might sound.

Included: Dance Party USA (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0497351/), Quiet City (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0914382/), both by Aaron Katz. Both were pretty interesting. Mutual Appreciation (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0446747/), has been my favorite so far, this one directed by Andrew Bujalski. I'm going to watch his first film, Funny Ha Ha, which is kind of considered the first mumblecore film ever made.

I also watched Hana & Alice (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0407851/), a film directed Shunji Iwai, some of you might know him because he directed All About Lily Chou Chou, which I remember seeing some praise for in this forum once. It's pretty good, not on par with Lily Chou Chou, but it definitely has the same kind of feel, so if you liked the cinematography and music and montage style in Lily Chou Chou, you'll probably appreciate Hana & Alice.

All of these are on Netflix btw.

Quantum of Solace - No one was trying to blow up the world or trying to gain world domination, was ok but I much prefered Casino Royale.

Edit**

Punch Lady - An amazing asian movie, was suprised how good it was despite the really bad title.. had some 'Rocky' moments in it too which is always cool.

the only way wanted could have been more ridiculous is if at some point he either spelled out his name in a window using ONE BULLET 0_0 or if he killed a bunch of people in such a way that their bodies falling would form a gigantic middle finger.

Shutter - Original version, first time in a long time I've jumped out of my seat during the scary bits.. I almost screamed at one point and the funny thing is I had already seen the american remake of this movie so knew most of what the film had to offer, the original just somehow managed to still suprise me.

Resident Evil Degeneration - The new CG movie, im not a huge fan of the games but liked this movie.

I watched Gattaca with my sister and she thought it was really sad. I'd always liked the film because it deals with a fairly thick issue on a really manageable level, and is all in all quite beautifullly made.
