What film did you watch last night?

I watched Lost In Translation. I love that film. Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson are excellent together - really good chemistry. It's very subtle, but it's beautiful.
 
Green Zone

The film clearly had too much ambition and never fulfilled its scope. Started off well and could've been a good action face value piece of entertainment with that little bit more depth than usual. Ended up as a sub par political expose thriller that didn't deliver so 5.5/10.
 
Daybreakers

Was ok but I didn't like the way they glossed over the back story of how everyone became Vampires, it was just like "Hey, everyone has become Vampires", Wahhh?

5/10

Indeed.

There isn't one memorable moment in that film and there are so many parts that don't make sense.

[Spoilers]

The daughter of that person who runs the 'Human farm', I'm pretty sure they were trying to get you to feel something for this girl and they pretty much killed her off straight away. It was completely emotionless.

[/Spoilers]
 
Watched The Blind Side last night, yeah I know...

Was pleasantly surprised, tested my emotions at times, guess I'm just an emotional guy haha, never realised it was based on present true events as well.

Superb performance once again from Sandra Bullock, well deserved Oscar imo.
 
The Andromeda strain - 6/10 good film , don't usually like films from the 70's but this kept me wanting to see what happens next. would have prefered a better ending. And why does everyone sound the same in old films it seems like they talk in monotone.

Check out the 2008 2 episode TV mini-series based on the same book with the same name. Was very good and and the nice modern touch that the 1978 film didn't :)
 
A heads up:
I was offered the loan of "Red Baron", a NIAMA-FILM release, I was quietly intrigued about the other side of the argument, and how it would work out on the silver screen, unfortunately someone in the production company has no experience of DVD production and the movie is a 16:9 movie presented in a 4:3 encode......
Now I know why it was so freely offered to me as a loan, because the chap who loaned it to me considered it too much hastle to take it back home!

If anyone has come across a proper 16:9 non-letterbox release of this title then I'll give it a go, otherwise I'm damned if I'm going to watch a release that was 16:9, squished with the aspect ratio left intact into a 4:3 encode only for me to then have to faff about with the AR setting on the TV to cut out all of those wasted bits... I gave up on divx class encodes a long time ago.

Was about what i expected to be honest.

Not very good acting, not very good casting, not very good storyline.

Not even Liam Neeson could bring this out of mediocrity.

5/10
