hey Im back and Ive seen a few movies

Source Code: couldve been better. I liked it but i thought it was too short. Was too fast to get to the resolution.

On Golden Pond...yes I actually watched this the other day when it was on. I liked it. Henry Fonda, nice little movie

SALT ...really liked this one. great action some good suspense. not realistic but who cares.good flick

Scott Pilgrim vs The World The Vegan police thing was funny, but overall just bored with it

beastly - i didnt know this film was romantic.turn it down after 10minutes.

the fighter - thumbs up..good acting.


shanghai - so so..if you like history you'll probably like this.

unstoppable - predictable. nothing fancy.

treme ( tv series ) - just watched episode 1 and its boring as hell.. can somebody tell me if this tv series is worth continuing?tia

californication (tv series) - just finished watching season 1 and 2..bad ass series. season 2 is better.

That movie was brutal. I was wasted and only really laughed once.

The Roommate

This movie has been dozens of times before, but Minka Kelly is the hottest woman on the planet, and I would watch it on a 24 hour loop with no problem.

The Grey Zone (2001)

just happened to run across it late last night on HBO

interesting but also disturbing movie based on the book Auschwitz: A Doctor's Eyewitness Account written by Dr. Miklos Nyiszli. somewhat different role for Harvey Keitel as SS-Oberscharfuhrer Eric Muhsfeldt the Nazi supervisor of the Jewish Sonderkommando workers.

NOT for the squeamish or those disturbed by this part of WWII history

Predators (2010)

had recorded and was fully prepared to "frisch" IF it sucked the first 15 minutes BUT thought it was actually pretty good with a couple of interesting plot twists. definately better than either of the two "Alien vs Predator" movies which I thoiught were complete ripoffs of BOTH the Alien and Predator movie themes.

To the post above me, the Sopranos is great...Im getting the first disc of season 5 in the mail today 

On another note, just watched 2001: A Space Odyssey...the special effects in that movie had to be unreal for the time...I can't believe it came out over 40 years ago.  That being said, I liked the movie, but I don't know if it is something I'd rewatch

Unknown starring Liam Neeson from the writer/director of Taken. Similar story where Liam is a Jason Bourne killer assassin. Pretty damn good then again I saw it for free.

NARC

Great flick.  Ray Liotta and Jason Patric killed it.  Shame these guys weren't recognized for this movie a few years ago.  I'm glad my buddy made me watch this. 

THOR

There is nothing more that I hate than faggoty, summer, big budget, PG-13, popcorn action movies, but I gave this one a shot because of the good reviews(and awful weather in SD on vacation) and I enjoyed it a lot.

Yup, 1 and 2 were awesome, then fell apart.  I tapped out sometime in season 4.

watched Iron Man 2 last night. those that said it pretty much sucked were correct. only really interesting scene was where Scarlett Johansson as Natalie Rushman / Natasha Romanoff kicks all the guards asses at Hammer Industries. pretty fancy "kung fu" shit.

The Way Back


One of the better movies I've seen in a while. It's about seven men who escape a Siberian gulag and travel 4,000 miles to find freedom
