Yeah, I liked that one. Also the fight over the woman at the wedding. The dorky guy was side-splitting.

Saw Fahrenheit 9/11 yesterday.

Hardly any comedy, too much emotion, too few facts and some cheap shots.

The usual moore, i suppose.

Whats truly sad is that stuff like this gets popular, while the real enlightening material doesnt.

Justsaw Manchurian Candidate. Didn't go expecting much of it. But it was very good led by a truly amazing performance by Denzel Washington. Very good and worthwhile trip to the cinema.

About Constantine: I don't even bother trying to watch movie adaptations of comics. Doesn't work, nine times out of ten. [PS: I would be happy to be proved wrong with this one, though.]

Now, the frightening thing would be someone making a movie of Sandman. They would simply murder it.

I rented a couple flicks this weekend.

"Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban." Smashing good film. I know a lot of people look down on the Harry Potter franchise but I enjoy both the books and the films.

"Around the World in 80 Days" starring Jackie Chan. Rather amusing light-weight film, although the part of Arnie as a Turkish prince was just plain bizzare. Posted Image

Sure Pitch Black is stylish, and Van Diesel plays a great bad ass, but basically all you have is Alien minus all that suspense and gripping story baggage.

I'd rather watch Forbidden Planet and Forbidden Planet was made in the 1950's!

I second the motion that Once upon a time in the west is the best western ever, and ive seen a lot Posted Image me and my old man on a saturday used to watch westerns, and once upon a time is just the greatest.. from "harmonica" (which they blatantly ripped off in the quick and the dead for sharon stones character) to Cheyenne (he was always my favourite character in a western)

if you have never seen this, what are you waiting for? its "f'n amazing"

I was expecting Sky Captain to be much, much worse than it was. So I actually kind of liked it, in a strange way.

Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy looks really good. The trailer is available on Amazon.com.

Anyone else here a fan of the new Battlestar Galactica series?

The Last Samurai was OK, but my favorite new samurai movie is Azumi (same director as Versus.) It stars a girl who puts Buffy to shame. Here is a link to a review and some pictures:

Not to take anything away from Koyuki, but I think Aya Ueto the star of Azumi is even hotter. Below is a pic:

I watched Bourne Supremacy and I liked it. I thought it improved on the first one and I really like Matt Damon as an action hero. He's got that understated thing going on.

I also saw The Chronicles of Riddick. Oh. My. God. Sums it up, I think. There was no character development, which is a shame cause I thnk Riddick was one of the better anti-heros of recent years and it would have been nice to get a look at him in more detail. In fact Riddick was no longer a character, more a characiture. There was a definite riff on Pitch Black. Those particular scenes were the only ones that worked well. The rest was so much flotsome and jetsome.

Currently loving and watching X-Files, watched the first 6 episodes so far and realised what it was that I liked about it when it was first shown over here.


X-Files rocks (well up until the 8th season anyway). I've got seasons 1,3-6 on video and they get continuous play. I really need to think about getting them on dvd.

seen "21 gram" today at a classic cinema (a good day today it was, eh, Bav? Posted Image). now, I haven't seen such a good movie in quite a time. really. much emotion from the actors, GREAT direction, artistic visuals... one of the best. honest.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I would say arthur is more worthwhile to watch compared to troy... but then both are to be watched for the visual affects only.....
