Pathology - 6/10

Interesting medical thriller that caves a bit in the end.


Transsiberian - 6/10

Suffers from the same problem as Pathology. Very interesting but gets silly in the end. Overall not bad.

Children of Men - 8/10

Land of the Dead - visionary

No numerical rating. It has many bad things done in ways that are bad in modern horror movies, such as the uber-dark lighting/contrast work. It hits home more when the lighting appears natural, guys. But, a numerical rating doesn't cut it, just like it doesn't for the original. Also, it's kind of out of place in the series, being that it was produced like a mainstream movie, where the previous ones were made more like cult films.

Still, great plot, great acting (you could tell the actors were really having fun, especially Asia Argento and Dennis Hopper), and most wonderful use of the zombies. It picked up in those terms perfectly after the other films (what was learned of the zombies in Dawn and then Day). The zombies cooperating, and the humans in charge not "getting" what the world is like (George Romero loves the Bush administration?), etc., were just mind-blowing, shown in ways that only film can.

At this point, for me: Night > Land > Day > Dawn > Dawn ('04)

Quantum of Solace 6.5/10

Seeking revenge for the death of his love, secret agent James Bond sets out to stop an environmentalist from taking control of a country's water supply.

First Five minutes of Quantum of Solace.. errr, */10??

The Pineapple Express - 7/10, very Cheech and Chong-y

 

[Seaside]

Forbidden Kingdom, 1/10.

Another boring mixed up kungfu thing.
Complete insult to the original chinese fiction which is a masterpiece. 1 point only because female actors are cute.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

6.5/10

Iron Man - 9/10
- Love that movie!

 

[appophylite]

Stargate Continuum-->Not so much a movie as an extra long TV episode. Still was entertaining and keeps right in the same light as the TV episodes do. 8/10

Role Models

I give it 8-10

New X Files movie... probably a 6.5/10. Not as bad as to justify all that bashing I read about it, but could be better (and less tearjerker side story).

Had a run on Korean films:

Peppermint Candy 9.5/10
Seriously good. Evil doers were innocent at some point. Played in reverse to get to that point. Watch out for your government.

Secret Sunshine 8.5/10
Seriously sad. Don't watch if you experienced a close family member dying on you. It will traumatize you.

Welcome to Dongmakgul 6.5/10
Kinda funny. Ending not so funny or appealing IMO. Kang is a cutie though.

The Host 8/10
Monster movie meets Family Ties.. err, not really. Still fun.

the happening - 6/10
bullet boy - 6/10

What Happens in Vegas - 7.5/10
- Really funny, but really predictable.
