Pineapple Express - 6/10

A Scanner Darkly 5/10, although interesting ideas I found it to be a annoying movie, too much confusion for my taste.

I think it meant a little more when you have something more personal to share with the subjects. The movie is base on Philips K. Dick book so I guess the characters are reminiscene of his own experiences with the drug cultures and it's corruption and paranoia is a big part of it. The movie was profoundly sad to my because I lost a friend this way. I find it more too the point in it's message and criticism than the other movie about drug that start with an R that everybody knows about, which is disgusting and sort of novelty and humourous for viewing, but I don't want to watch this one more than once either, it's even more disturbing.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona 9/10

I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a Woody Allen film this much.

Javier Bardem (No country for old men) and Penelope Cruz performances are outstanding, especially Penelope's.

Bah, speak for yourself. There is nothing more boring than only a "title - rating". What's the point of that? Keep up the discussion guys. I might actually read this thread more like I used to when blessingx mixed it up.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom....
8/10 It felt like an Indiana Jones movie. I would've liked it better without the kid-sidekick angle which was obviously a big part of it, but it was good.

Punisher: War Zone

I thought this movie was very nicely done. A little comical at times because there was so much gore but definitely better than the 2004 offering. I was shocked how much I enjoyed it. And from a female director. She rocks!

i wasnt referring to shutting down discusssion of a movie, i enjoy that extra bit of info here too, in fact many times its led me to go watch a film on that strength

i was simply meaning its pointless to query other peoples ratings, when its so subjective.

a short animated 'film noir' piece called 'shut eye hotel' strange but not a complete waste of six minutes - 8/10

The Fall - 6/10

Not too bad, not too good, a bit too long. Very slow, which will probably turn off many.

I guess that I don't understand the difference, but if it offends people, I'll be sure to try not to comment in this way again.

I guess I could just do this...


I Am Sam: 5/10

I don't care if she's young, she ain't natural. The soundtrack and plot are great, though, but the overacting keeps me from believing the movie. I saw it once a few years ago, and I'm not sure if I'll see it again.

There, now I'm not questioning anyone, I'm just giving my opinion of the movie.

The Day the Earth Stood Still

1.5/5 :OK, this movie is ridiculous, and i like these types of movies. Without that cool robot the vote would be 0.5

Thanks for this. Looks interesting. I will be sure to check it out on my next netflix order.

"Domino" - 6.5/10

Tony Scott's 2005 action/adventure docudrama is 8.0 fun. Minus 2 for fractured senseless plot flayed by erratic avantgarde postproduction film manipulation. Minus 1 for bogus weapons handling. Plus 1.5 for glimpse of Keira Knightley with her shirt off.
