What movies have you seen recently?

Re: What movies have you seen recently? Part 1

Saw a pre-screening of Step Up 3D tonight. Really enjoyed it!

Yes I like the music and was doing similar moves (or trying) back in my school days but it was a lot of entertainment!

The story was different from the first two and didn't go over the top with the female character and give her too much screen time.

The moves and routines weren't as polished as some of the first two movies but were still great and the 3D was brilliant.

They did the obvious 3D stunts with water splashing out towards you etc but some other stuff like the robot dancer's head or the chicks hands coming at the screen were amazing.

Even the regular scenes in 3D added so much more depth then normal 2D. I'm a big fan of 3D and was very impressed with Step Up.

Good to hear. I love the Step Up series as well as Stomp The Yard. I hate the actual movie with the dialouge but the dance scenes are so tight.

Batman Begins. Still enjoy it very much and think it's underrated, especially when compared to TDK. Begins just had a better pace to it and was entertaining from beginning to end. TDK was filled with great scenes (mostly Ledger's) between parts where you're reaching for the fast forward button.

Pride and Glory. Another dirty cops movie. Big fan of Edward Norton and he's good in this. Very predictable, but moved along nicely.

Adoration. Very good drama. Not normally my type of movie, but I was pleasantly surprised. Deserves a spot on your Netflix queue

I don't remember one scene in TDK that I ever even think about wanting to hit the fast-forward button, but that's just me. And this is after, probably, 20+ viewings of the movie. Never once wanted to skip a scene.

That's the great thing about movies, though. The differing opinions are always great to read, especially about my "favorite" movies.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid A

Funniest movie i have seen all year. Without a doubt, i had no clue i was going to laugh so much. It was pure entertainment. Hope the other books get their movies as well.


Side note: Hit girl needs to hurry and grow up, shes the next Hayden Panettiere

Saw The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and I can say it's probably one of the best movies I've seen in quite a long time.

She's like 13 now, though. I could see saying that if she were anywhere in the neighborhood of 18.

*shudders*

Anyways...

Cop Out: Better than the critics thought, I think. I laughed a bunch. I generally like Kevin Smith movies, though. Except Zack and Miri. And I also find Tracy Morgan hilarious, which I suspect isn't the case for everyone.

If you don't laugh at Tracy Morgan yelling "YIPPEE-KY-AY, MOTHER ****ER!" and Bruce Willis saying "I've actually never seen that movie" you have no soul.

Watching Kick-*** now. Just started. Today's example of my gayness, I loudly said "IT'S THE GIRL FROM 500 DAYS OF SUMMER!" when whatshername came on screen.

Right, so there's like a 75% chance that was the most badass thing I have ever seen in my entire life.

yeah it was pretty cool. I'm watching Toy Story 3 right now with my wife and daughter. Yes pirated copy (hey least i'm honest about that) and yes i'm probably going to jail.

I love the TS movies and will be buying this one on BR when it comes out to add to the other two in the collection.

Just saw this one. Thought it was good for what it was. Didn't really like the ending though.

Agreed.

Spoiler

Was pretty much a rip-off of Training Day. Bad cop finally gets taken out by the streets he ruled over.

I just watched Meet The Browns on TBS. Batteries went out in controller and I was too lazy to get up and change the channel. But anyway terrible terrible movie. Angel Bassett timid approach in the movie non-stop was annoying as well.

Also I don't think I've watched a more annoying actress with voice, presentation, acting, way they handle themselves than



Even on Fresh Prince I hated her.

Kick ***. Pretty over the top, but entertaining.... somewhat on the long side. Though, a unique attempt. Definitely some "whoa" moments.
