The Last Film You Saw? Thread 2.

I saw "Night at the Museum" over the weekend. It was a pretty good movie and I enjoyed it. I haven't really ever seen Ben Stiller in a movie and thought he is a pretty good actor. And the bits with the monkey (Dexter) and the T-Rex I found funny.

 

I watched "Little Miss Sunshine" last weekend and can't recommend it enough. It's laugh out loud funny but it has depth and isn't your average comedy. It takes place on a dysfunctional family road trip so the humor is dark and a bit quirky but it really lived up to all the good reviews I had read. That doesn't always happen.

 

I saw Wrong Turn on dvd last night. It's a bit of a The Hills Have Eyes ripoff. Basically the exact same plot of people taking the wrong road and being murdered by these freaky inbred cannibalistic types. Not one I'd recommend.

 

In Her Shoes, I thought it was pretty lame. It's okay to watch if you've not got nothing to do. :lol: The only good thing was probably Toni Collette - she was good, in my opinion Cameron Diaz was not great.

 

As a new movie... Elizabeth I. Oh it was so strong, so wonderful and amazing job from Helen Mirren No wonder they got so many Emmys! A great movie.

Then as old and classy and funny - Robin Hood: Men in Tights :lol: :lol:

 

Accepted on dvd, I actually enjoyed this movie about a group of kids that get rejected from all the colleges they apply to and decide to "fake" their own branch of another college. Very cute movie.

 

I have finally seen Casino Royale. And considering the fact that I'm not really a Bond fan, I thought it was pretty good and Daniel Craig did an excellent job.

Tonight we are planning to watch 'The Anchorman' which I've heard really good things about too.

 

Yesterday I watched Transamerica. It was a good movie, I loved the plot and Felicity Huffman is such a great actress in this movie . She played a woman very well, and at the same time a man also.

Today I watched Van God Los, a Dutch movie. This movie was soo good! Normally I hate Dutch movies, the language annoys me, but this movie was so well-acted that I didn't mind that at all!

 

I didn't like The Anchorman so much.. it had some funny moments but disappointed me a lot.

I saw White Chicks today. Oh man was it fun! :lol: "Yo, Hold my poodle!" Even with funnyness, it felt that it should have had something bit more.

Then I saw a half of Finnish movie called "Menolippu Mombasaan" it's very sad movie


I wanted to watch Ray tonight, but mom wanted to watch something else.

 

I just re-watched Jarhead. Really good movie. Jake Gyllenhal and Peter Sarsgard were amazing, as was Jamie Foxx. It's a really interesting look at a soldiers view of the first war against Saddam (the late Saddam, that is... )

I highly recommend it for anyone who gets tired of "Ra Ra America!" movies. This is a pretty realistic portrayal of these poor guys, I'm thinking.

 

I went to go see Rocky Balboa the other night. Pretty good movie, nice finale for the franchise.

Right now, I'm watchin' the U.S. Marshals - Special Edition DVD, which I bought yesterday mornin'.

 

Didn't know you had brains, Zsófi! LOL

I watched Jerry Maguire in the middle of the night lol. It was on on BBC1, I think. I had seen the movie before, though it still is a cool movie. It isn't great, but well...
