[dapianoplay3r]

Saw The Internship yesterday. It was pretty much what you'd expect except slightly more heartwarming than expected at times. Solid comedy.

 

One thing I have to note though which didn't really impact my enjoyment of the film was some bad editing. It was painfully obvious when they'd edited clips of different takes together to make a scene at times.

Watched Man of Steel last night.

IT was good, but I think It COULD have been better.

My one fear for the movie, was that the narrator overtone of the trailers would be just as heavy handed in the movie.

The movie almost felt abstract, and less character driven, and more narrative/action orientated. Hell, I almost wish the movie was 4 hours long, just to better balance the story/plot/ect with the action.

 

The action scenes, got a bit sloppy to. They did a lousy job of going from CG, back to "real people". Kind of like how they did a crap job of that in the Matrix 2.

I also saw Man of Steel. That Henry Cavill is BUILT! Damn! Also, Amy Adams is cute. She kinda looks like Pam Beesly.

 

The movie itself was meh.

Awesome review from "Locke Lamora" author Scott Lynch.

Yea, that pretty much sums up everything wrong with it.. lol

 

That missing scene at the end?

True that... True that..

I saw This Is The End

I wanted to like it, I tried, but I didn't

It had a lot of great moments but the movie also dragged more than once and was way over the top

Probably would make a good friday night rental but would not recommend seeing it in theaters

Gah, I had high hopes for that as a comedy.. Was the bit with emma Watson at least hilarious?

Nah. She was in it for 5mins then disappeared for half the movie then came back for another 5 mins and then left again.

The only funny thing involving her was a line someone says it went something like "**** we got robbed by hermione" or some such.

I totally have a man crush on Henry Cavill

[Mateusz Wronowski]

Just saw "The Internship". It was okay as a comedy, but I only wanted to see it because of the main actors and the fact that google was part of it :D Like I said, it was okay, most of the humour was very current but there were no moments really were I was laughing so hard there were tears in my eyes. None of that, but plenty of chuckles. Definitely going to torrent that :D

[Nolder]

Saw World War Z yesterday.

Loved it. It was excellent.

[Knivy]

I saw How to Train Your Dragon.  Best movie I have ever seen.

[Nolder]

Really? Best movie ever? I saw it when it come out on DVD.

It was a good movie but I dunno about best ever...

[Knivy]

Exaggeration, but it is definitely up there.  The soundtrack is the best I have heard in a long time, and maybe its just because i want my own dragon.

[Ryrin]

The Conjuring. :-0

[Red2111]

Velvet Goldmine.  was made in 1998, has a lot of good actors in it that made it big after the film and was ... interesting.

I saw The Matrix for the first (!) time a couple of days ago. Loved it, although most of the plot twists have been given away over the years haha.

Pawn Shop Chronicles

Wow.

That movie was just..

Wow.

Crazy

Good

Insanity

Funny

Ironic

WTF?!

Did that seriously happen?

White Supremacist meth heads fail at hating?

Elvis Impersonators?

Midget

The Devil

Crazy town that's stuck in the 1950s...

 

Its an interesting show.

[Nyanna al'Meara]

Holy. freaking...

 

Lost&Delirious just destroyed me. It's the saddest, most soul-wrenching thing. Ever.

[Emperor]

Oblivion:

 

When did Tom Cruise start to get on my nerves.  Outside of that, which is minor, the movie was entertaining.  Predictable but entertaining.

 

Now You See Me:

 

Same review actually.  The movie moves so fast that there is hardly any character development.  But I was entertained even if I figured out the twist really early.

[SinisterDeath]

The Curse of Chucky

 

HOLY SHIT!

They made a new Chucky! And I didn't hear about it until today!

And its GOOD!

[Durinax]

Now you see me - very entertaining, but left me a bit puzzled at the end about the Eye
