brvheart 1,751 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Slumdog MillionareIs this a true story or not? I can't find out. I've been looking. It just doesn't make sense, if it's fiction. If it's fiction, then it's worthless... in my mind. If it's true, on the other hand, then it's fantastic. Link to post Share on other sites

SuitedAces21 2,721 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Has anyone heard anything about a movie called "Doubt". It stars Phillip Semore Hoffman and Meryl Streep. Hoffman is a priest who is accused of molesting a young black boy by Streep, who is a nun. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 incorrect.God, it was bound to happen. I actually agree with Showstopper. MI was like a bad hybrid of a spy movie with a John Woo movie, but it wasn't a good version of either. It had too much of the things that suck about woo, and not enough cool action scenes and wanton destruction. The motorcycle scene was good, but over all, I remember being extremely disappointed about the movie ( and, as a John Woo fan, I went into it with high expectations).

Haven't seen it but the trailer makes it look quite interesting. Link to post Share on other sites

They were still 3 handed at the FT of the WSOP ME. So I don't know who won. I'm all on the edge of my seat here, I tell you what. Link to post Share on other sites

Jadaki 0 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Hancock - Kids wanted a movie to watch last night and I picked up the Blu-ray, I still get a kick out of the movie but it could have been better.Get Smart - Okay movie, didn't laugh as much as I thought I would going into it, but as a mindless enjoyable film it served it's purpose.

CJHunt 0 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 WantedIt felt like an 80 minute movie stretched into 2 hours. Bad script, bad acting, just bad. That being said, there is some cool stuff in there. Just didn't enjoy the overall experience. Link to post Share on other sites
Swift_Psycho 1 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Changeling. Tremendous movie. Strong script and good acting, and kudos to Eastwood for a fine job. I'm not much of a fan of movies that have "feminist" tones because often they try to skew the viewer's perspective in an unfair way, but in this case the film very accurately portrayed the grave injustice that faced women back during those times in regards to what went on in psychiatric wards and how easy it was for a woman to just get dumped in there for the most absurd reasons. Of course that stuff was only a small portion of the injustices that were going on in the film, but that portrayal was what stuck out most in my mind. Link to post Share on other sites

I could watch an entire movie of just Vince Vaughn talking to people.Mini Luda was disturbing.My wife and I were talking about this at the in-laws today and brother-in-law said that he loves when he starts talking really fast while remaining totally calm. I agreed and started repeating word-for-word two scene from Wedding Crashers and one from Old School where he does this and I absolutely love it. The whole room was silent, because no one... and I'm talking like 15 people... mainly 25-35... had seen EITHER of those movies. My wife and I were the only ones laughing because we were the only ones who had seen them. Of course, I should expect that, since both were R and both sides of my family are what you would call 'religious'... but still, I was sad. Link to post Share on other sites

Poppy_Hillis 11 Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I could watch an entire movie of just Vince Vaughn talking to people. MadeIf you haven't seen it.I liked Fred Claus until the story started and it wasn't Vince Vaughn just BSing with people anymore. It wasn't that funny, but when the black kid comes in for the first time and Vince Vaughn tells him not to jump around and just sit like a gentleman, I was dying; that's exactly how I feel about kids. Then when he was talking to the lease guy, and he wanted the money on the 22nd, and Vaughn was like, "you know or the 23rd or 24th, it doesn't really matter you'll get it either way, we'll all be happy." I love me some Vince Vaughn. Link to post Share on other sites

Put I will put it on my nextflix que again.The movie went down hill when he came back and it became an actual Xmas movie. I loved when he was fighting mini Luda and then dancing with the elves, and the parts you said. Link to post Share on other sites

Swift_Psycho 1 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 You Don't Mess With the Zohan. I'm actually glad that I watched it after hearing so much trash said about it cause I expected absolute garbage and ended up finding it rather entertaining since I had no expectations at all.

Swift_Psycho 1 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hansel & Gretel, a 2007 suspense/horror film from South Korea. Very creepy movie, and while it requires some suspended disbelief, particularly towards the end, it was very good. I was just looking online for some crappy horror movie to watch because I was bored and luckily bumped into this one. The movie is somewhat tied to the fairy tale, but it's significantly altered. In a good way I think. I was creeped out and wide awake watching it (at like 5am) the whole time. Link to post Share on other sites
