Members RUExp? Posted December 30, 2011 Members Share Posted December 30, 2011 The last current movie I watched was the latest Pirates of the Caribbean. It was okay but not that interesting overall. The first one is still the best. The last movie I actually watched was High Kick Girl. It's a low budget Japanese flick that is high on action and low on story like most good martial arts movies. It's all pretty much straight Karate stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not the same director. Maybe a similar feel and also has a sub-plot of a new planet coming into earths atmosphere. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1549572/ The trailer gives a lot of the plot away, so dont watch it if you like going into movies fresh.

Members six acre lake Posted December 30, 2011 Members Share Posted December 30, 2011 Originally Posted by who235 Seconded. It's bad enough letting Guy Ritchie dig up Holmes' corpse to fiddle with it, but they took everything that was even marginally good and funny about the first movie and threw it out.

I am glad Watson had a bigger role to play but I wish it was more in line with the classic stories and not the action adventure sidekick. A third installment is obvious and not needed. Hopefully the franchise will learn a thing or two in how to conduct itself from the finale of the Nolan Batman trilogy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jisatsu Posted December 30, 2011 Members Share Posted December 30, 2011 Just saw cowboys vs aliens last night. Surprisingly good. 8/10Blood Diamond 9/10 despite leo's crap south African accent it was a good movie. TIA was a good touch and I'm glad to hear it from the rhodesian ex pats in it. Death race (the new one) 3/10 was pretty meh. Arena 3/10. Pretty cheesy and lame. Samuel L Jackson is a joke these days. Apocalypse Now redux. 9.9/10. I prefer the original, but I like the surreal-ness of the extra scenes. It doesn't get the full 10 because it makes the movie so long it's hard to finish in one sitting.

It was a pretty good blending of sci fi with a modern action flick twist. Some of the acting was a little stale, but I blame it on people trying to pretend to be real people caught in an unrealistic end of the world scenario. I watched it with my marine friend and he had a blast. Us both being combat vets enjoyed the attention to detail paid to the marines and how they conducted themselves in the movie.

If they would just follow Arthur Doyles writings they would have had an excellent movie. The intellect (logic) and humor is what made it awesome.

Members wiklund87 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted December 31, 2011 watched the new Human Centipede 2... the "cut" versionnot sure what score it deserve... disturbing for some people I guessat the wikipedia page, the director has revealed some news about the third film: In an interview with DreadCentral.com, Six said the third film will "make the last one look like a Disney film. We're going to shoot the third film entirely in America, and it's going to be my favourite... It's going to upset a lot of people." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
