What film did you watch last night?

Mystic River

Yet another Clint Eastwood film that is better than good but a far cry from exceptional. Imo his best piece of work is Million Dollar Baby

Also didn't help that I guessed the killer 30 mins in....

7/10
 
Watched Harry brown earlier, thought it was pretty good.

Just finished watching moon, this turned out to be a total surprise really enjoyed it.
 
Pandorum. 8/10

I enjoyed it, I also enjoyed the fact that 30 minutes in the main character runs into a ****ing NINJA and it took me several minutes to think "haaaaaang on a minute!", and even then I didn't really care.

I liked the monsters, they seemed a lot more viable than some movies and the explanation for them worked for me, interesting characters that even with only 5/10 minutes backstory between them didn't seem out of place, besides the aforementioned Ninja of course who doesn't really do anything but be a mother ****ing Ninja and honestly what more could you want? Well designed sets and decent writing.

Also the movie managed to stay interesting and exciting whilst not going overboard on locations, most of the movie is spent in corridors and a couple of recurring rooms but they never get dull.

One of the highlights for me was when the protagonist and his merry band consisting of "The hot female" and "The mother ****ing NINJA" meat some crazy black dude and he goes on to explain how exactly the ship ended up the way it did, it is done in a single room and consists of nothing but him talking but the effects and the camera work make it seem much like he's talking about a legend, which I imagine is the entire point and tbh is a bit obvious on that but hey, it worked for me.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

Not the first (or last) time I've seen it. It's a very enjoyable and ultimately heartwarming 80's movie starring Steve Martin and John Candy as very different charactes. No surprises, just some light hearted entertainment and it delivers what it promises. I recommend it.
 
Moon

Pretty dull affair and an hour and a half of my life I'll never get back. Also I think Blu-Ray makes the fake sets stand out, might work better on DVD. 3/10
