Harsh Times

The Buena Vista Social Club

Watched 'Limitless' last night. It was ok.

Kill Bill Vol.2


(I noticed that Bill's room number was 101, hmmm "Room 101", Hmmm?)

We put in Watchmen Director's Cut on Blu-Ray the other night. Got about an hour and a half in (not even the halfway point) and we were both asleep on the couch. That's not a comment on the movie, we both love it, we were just both exhausted and it's a loooooong movie.

Everything Must Go

The Hangover Part II:-)

Limitless

Finally got around to watch The Departed and Inception in the last few days. Also watched Primer.

Gonna watch Primer again, I think it's one of those movies that you have to watch more than once.

The Bourne Trilogy is up next. (Haven't seen any of those yet)

Cowboys & Aliens.

Hokey but definitely fun.

Peep World

Rounders

I saw Inception in the theater and loved it (except for the similarities to Matrix).
What did you think?

DiCaprio is going to be remembered as one of the greatest actors of his generation. I haven't seen all of his movies, but that kid can act the **** out of movie roles.

I dig movies where you are forced to keep track of whats going on, or you are just lost (Primer takes this to such a level, I think it may take 2 more viewings to understand it all).

Some of the plot devices in Inception were a little strange, like how they come back up levels in dreams, and the whole 'heading into limbo' thing was a bit weird, and using the Defib machine after it appeared the guy was dead for a while was a stretch. But the suspension of disbelief is a pre-req for movies like this.

I liked it, but not for the special effects, or even the plot of story. I liked it more for the depiction of his emotions in regards to his kids and wife. It reminded me of Jacobs Ladder and Romeo Is Bleeding in that respect. Movies that can evoke a real emotional response from me are my favorites.

DiCaprio has moved right up there as one of my favorite actors along with Gary Oldman and Harvey Keitel.

Watched The Debt with Helen Mirren last night. Remind me a bit of Munich.

Much better than the original, IMO.

IF you haven't seen it Memento might be right up your alley. If you have then maybe it's worth yet another look.

Yea I've seen it, maybe I'll re-watch it. Pi is another off-the-wall flick I should watch again too.
