A woman, a gun and a noodle shop. Interesting Chinese flick (English subtitles). Was disappointing because I was expecting a lot of action.

Some of the characters were either boring or just plain annoying.

Lincoln: You know when a movie is really well made, incredibly well acted, and yet you still find yourself kind of bored throughout? That's what I felt watching this.

Django Unchained: Ridiculously awesome.

That's how J. Edgar felt after the first hour.

The Bad News Bears (2005 remake). Has no significant value in the history of film and still worth the watch! Fun fact: the stud baseball boy and the girl pitcher have no other film credit according to IMDB.

Bachelorette- I continue my Lizzy Caplan fest, with movie number 2 and it's fricking outstanding. It's like Bridesmaid, but 100 times better and without the need to be over the top crude and disgusting.

It's on Netflix streaming, watch it.

Django Unchained - Everything I expected it to be and even better than that. Just completely badass.

I don't know what I liked the most between the dialogue (specifically Calvin Candie and Dr. Schultz), Django himself, or the soundtrack. All of it was awesome.

Part of me is curious how things would have turned out had Will Smith been Django like Tarantino originally wanted, but I thought Jamie Foxx did just fine, even if Leo and Christoph Waltz arguably stole the show from him.

I also don't see the complaint that the movie should have ended at that one fade to black moment. It didn't drag on past that point for me at all. My only complaint about the last act of the movie is that it wasn't

Candie who was the last to die.

Regardless of that, I loved every minute.

I'm the opposite. Django never once dragged for me, while I could skip entire parts of I.B. and be completely okay with it.

I guess we all got our opinions and I respect yours. Inglorious Basterds was more entertaining to me cause there were more comedy mixed in it

YES. This is exactly how I felt. Daniel Day Lewis was undeniably great, but I just felt bored the whole damn time.

Probably I was a little too young, but 'Chariots of Fire' almost murdered me with boredom in the theater.

'The English Patient'....same thing.

But it's like I told my film-loving son; films are still subjective art. It's perfectly fine to not like a supposedly 'great' film, and love a 'bad' film.

Knowing
It was pretty good. Pretty creepy at the beggining. However, the ending was pretty bad and fell flat. I would give it 6.5/10.

Gangster Squad

Entertaining. My expectations were curbed so I knew it wasn't going to be as good as it looked in the trailers. Speaking of which,no the theatre scene isn't in the deleted scenes. The crashing through the skylight one is though.

The Place Beyond the Pines
- Best film I've seen all year. Loved Blue Valentine and the structre of this was just awesome. (Bradley Cooper doesn't even show up until like an hour in). I was a huge fan of Blue Valentine and recommend seeing this as well.

Saw this today, would like to echo praise. Wonderful film creatively fragmented. The acting and performances were absolutely extraordinary across the board, which extends to even the minor characters. Very impressed. It has stuck with me since and made me reflect on characters, actions, motives, etc. Refreshing movie in general, these days!

42-Very Meh movie. For a movie that's supposed to deal with very important subject matter/story it has way too much cheese for my taste.

Oh god the baseball scenes were just brutal too, the way the pitches zigged and zagged just defied gravity.
