Last movie in the theater - Adjustment Bureau.  Meh, thought it was going to be better.  5/10
 
Just watched 127 Hours last night.  Really enjoyed it, even if the amputation sequence had me squeamishly watching through my fingers.  8/10

Wall-E - 85/100

Sucker Punch 6/10.... Cool visuals, fun soundtrack, but the acting did not impress me at all and the story made me feel prophetic. Good idea executed badly, i think.
 
Due Date 8/10... funny, but kind of formulaic. I love both of the actors but I felt like they didn't mesh as well as I had hoped. I guess I went into it expecting another "The Hangover" which is a bad way to go into any comedy.

Source Code was good, and I actually enjoyed it a little more than Moon, which so many were ahem over the moon for. The Code is a capable genre flick. Have to bag on the ending though; tack on much? It would of been even better if it ended at the more somber resolution. 6/10
 
Also, I rewatched The Devil's Backbone, with is such a wonderful movie. It's del Toro's predecessor companion to Pan's Labyrinth. The similiarites are marked and clear. So if you like one Spanish civil war childhood fantasy, you'll like the other. I think Backbone is better, because it's third act is more centered. 8/10

Undisputed 3 - eh...mediocre at best. Watched it out of a friend's recommendation but eh...4.5/10.

The Matrix, 9/10

Of course I've seen this before. But a trip to Target today turned up a Blu-Ray copy for $15. I wasn't willing to pay $30, but forked over $15 without hesitation.

About 12 years on, it holds up very well. Great movie and it's stunning in HD.

The use of landlines seems a little dated today, though.

Black Snake Moan - 8/10
 
Awesome movie, really underrated. Well acted and one of the best parts, a really good bluesy soundtrack. Samuel L Jackson actually plays the songs too. Highly recommended.

Breakdown - 10/10
 
I still remember when this came out. I believe I was 17 (now 31) and "The Game" (another great movie) came out the same year. I've now seen it dozens of times and I never get tired of it. It's a thriller starring Kurt Russel. They're moving to California and their car breaks down in the middle of the desert. His wife hitches a ride with a truck driver (so stupid!) and goes missing. I've found the movie to be quite realistic and could really happen. Ok, maybe except for one part. The content that's shown in the movie isn't disturbing until you think too much about it and how evil the people in the movie were. A lot of people criticized one scene in the movie and I don't understand it. This movie is on DVD, but the picture quality is not good and it really needs a blu-ray release. I find the movie to be near perfect and I wouldn't have done anything differently.
 
I love you Phillip Morris 9/10
 
I've got to admit that a few of it's scenes made me feel a bit uncomfortable. Sorry, but it's true. I hated the movie at first and then it kept getting better and better until I think I loved the movie. It's one of my favorite Jim Carrey roles. It's not strictly a comedy, but maybe a bit of two genres. I do think there was a few totally unnecessary scenes, but that's OK. I think this one would even get better on multiple viewings. I can definitely see how some people could hate this. I wonder if really any of the events in the movie are true. I'll have to look that up.

Pi (1998)- 6/10 A very unique, original film that was very tough to get through.  I know this film was highly praised by critics but the movie didn't do much for me (I liked "The Wrestler" and "The Fighter by Aronofsky FWIW)

I was worried about that.  So there are some Brokeback moments then?

Very nice man, to write down the end of a movie

There are people reading this topic who maybe are going to see it yet, and your little sentence here could ruin that for them.

Where I live landlines was outdated even when the Matrix was released
 
Watched Buried 10/10. Can´t be more hardcore then this. 95 minutes in a coffin.
Impressive also after Into the Void and 127h.
Thought it would make things harder since in a coffin there isn´t anything you can do to improve your situation but even more terrifying thus.
 
Dear John... 8/10. Balancing on a thin line being to hollywoodised sugarish but not to much in the end.
