For a movie that was supposed to "educate" about the diamond trade and the exploitation of Africa's children. . .it took EVERY oppurtunity to turn in a cliched "action adventure" over RELEVANT social commentary. It even had the requisite love story and a final "shoot out" with the hero learning his lesson as he bleeds to death. |

I havent seen it, but just because it wasnt a dry fucking docudrama doesnt make it "shameful" |
SCHINDLERS LIST wasnt a "dry" docudrama, but it got its story across and wasnt cliched.
REQUIEM FOR A DREAM wasnt dry. RAIN MAN wasnt dry. BOYZ IN THE HOOD and COLORS werent dry. THE LAST KING OF SCOTLAND wanst dry. The list could go on and on about movies that tackle/d real life issues or historical events, but didnt saturate it with Hollywood nonsense. Whats even worse, is that this movie was nominated for an Oscar. It wasnt "bad" by any means. . .the actors did their jobs - but considering the subject matter and the caliber of talent involved - youd THINK more care would have been taken to not have it be as polished and glossy as it was. |
marie antoinette - i thought it was fucking awesome.
nacho libre - funny 300 - disappointed |

I think if I had seen the movie with subtitles - the movie wouldve been infinitely more tolerable. It sure as hell looked hot as hell. . .especially the God-King - but god damn that acting. |

I never watched 300 for the acting just the battle scenes which were pretty good. beer:
Just too many freaks in the movie for my liking, gollums hunchback cousin and walrus man with the blades stitched to his arm. oOo: Not to mention Jethro the inbred hillbilly that the immortals bring into the battle. |

To each their own.

"Talladega Nights" is the best comedic movie released recently, it's hard not to laugh during that film unless you don't have any humor in you. sleeping:
After Cal Naughton, Jr. takes Ricky Bobby's family and house.... "Hey Ricky, I'm getting bored, man. You wanna come over and play G.I. Joes? I'll come get you." "Why I'd love to, wait, what don't you understand man, you're not my friend!" |
Beverly Hills Cop
rock: |
Touristas stupid:
|
i know this link has been mentioned thousands of times, but alluc.org is possibly the greatest thing on the net movie-wise
|
until you remember what it's like to actually watch a movie that's at a decent quality
|
thats true, but for someone like me who can't decide what movie to watch at any time, the amount of decent movies they have is incredible. It's like have a movie store on your computer, for free.

Disturbia.
funny as hell because there was a fight between 2 people in the middle of it, for no reason everyone was like WTF. I thought it was a good concept. and i think the chick saved the movie, she was hot as hell. |

The premise seems so overused, that I can't imagine the movie being all that interesting. |
