It was ok, Alien Force is better though.

Yeah, I've been enjoying Alien Force a good deal, especially this last season.

Nothing Personal. 8/10
Surprisingly good arthouse movie. About a young woman who agrees to work for a bit older man, but only when they don't share any personal information. Of course, living together eventually means they're growing closer...
Gorgeous Irish landscapes too.

Edit: Also saw 2010 (The Year We Made Contact). It was ok. A bit boring I guess.
It was after the movie that I realized we actually live in the year 2010.

Big Fan

Not a football fan in the slightest but this was a damn fine movie. Patton Oswald should do more dramatic roles; great job.

Me and Swan saw Shutter Island. It was a very good movie, and I enjoyed it a lot. It makes you think right up to the very end.

Le Scaphandre et le Papillon (The Diving Bell and the Butterfly) 8/10.
Great French movie about a guy who wakes from a coma. He can only move his eyes, but he still writes a book.
True story, but not one of those sappy drama movies. Arthouse instead.

I feel like the trailers ruined Shutter Island and it is really long so I'll probably avoid that one till it comes out on DVD. I saw The Wolfman and I am presently surprised to say it was an entertaining homage to B-movie horror with amazing Gothic cinematography and a sweet acting cast.

I'm planning on catching The Crazies next weekend which should hit that zombie spot.

Black Dynamite.

Hands down this is a 10/10. By far one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.
You have to go in knowing that it's a mockery of blaxploitation movies, and at no time does it take itself seriously.

With that said, not only is Michael Jai White the lead in the movie, but it has Arsinio Hall.

Bottom line: If you like laughter, watch this goddamn movie.

After seeing Shutter Island, I don't think the trailer gives away too much especially with the way the movie plays out.

And while I was buying tickets to Shutter Island, got invited to a free screening of Repo Man so hopped uptown after the movie and caught that. Its an okay movie, nothing special, it has a cool climax fight scene.

Closing The Ring. 8/10.
I watched it because the director was Richard Attenborough (Jurassic Park's John Hammond). The Irish accent was so hard to understand...

Fox 6 · 03-10-2010, 11:06 PM

Just watched "Up In The Air"

I enjoyed it immensely and thought it was a better film than the "Hurt Locker"

Watched Law Abiding Citizen on the weekend.

Quite enjoyable, if you are willing to sit back and shut off your brain... Like any other Gerard Butler film

What bugged me about that movie - and every movie he does since 300 - is he's trying to do a North American accent. The thing is, I'm completely aware he's scottish, so all I do during his movies now is watch his mouth when he's doing the accent for movies and pick it apart in my mind to the point where he just sounds like a handicap.

Just watched Frost/Nixon. Great movie and Richard Nixon has to be the most fascinating president in history. A man of great achievement and great sin. A Shakespearean tragedy.

Before Sunset. 7/10.
