The Imposter - Bizarre documentary about a 23 year old french man who posed as a 14 year old missing child from Texas. Best documentary I have seen in a long time. 9/10
No - Cool movie about the opposition to Augusto Pinochet using advertising techniques to block his referendum and bring him down. I love that it was shot on old U-Matic cameras. Good performance by Gael Garcia Bernal as well. 8/10 Last edited by mitch_h; 02-16-2013 at 01:20 PM. |

Whatever the lowest price for a ticket is any given day, plus a small soda, small popcorn. Hope to keep it under $10 but that's probably not realistic in today's day and age...might be more like $12 or something, but not gonna be one of those dicks who just sneaks in snacks and drink "because it’s cheaper at the store”. That logic has always baffled me. There’s a reason that theaters don’t permit you to do it (money) but it's also a good way to get permabanned from the theater and possibly prosecuted.

A Good Day to Die Hard: 2/10. Awful and ridiculous.
In other words, I'm sure Damninator will enjoy it. |

Dark Knight Rises--- a little late, but... Didn't really care for it. 6/10. Bane was an ok villain but nothing special, and the whole thing was just blah to me. Still better than Batman Begins, though.

I loved Dark Knight Rises, had me hooked the whole time.
Spoiler tag for at the beginning that was a little simple reason I enjoyed it from the start. Doesn't reveal plot, just a special guest appearance for fans of Game of Thrones. SPOILER: show |

Catfish - 7/10
Was honestly expecting it to be terrible, but it was actually alright. Seems 90% likely it's fake though. |

As a hardened horror fan, I was still terrified by this, I just thought the ending let it down a bit. |

Silent Hill: Revelation
2/10 Awful...I'm a fan of the games (the first 4 anyway), and despite my expectations was kinda looking forward to seeing it as I assumed it would be based on Silent Hill 3 (my favorite game in the series), but I started falling asleep during this movie. That said, it's not based on Silent Hill 3 beyond Heather being the main protagonist. Nothing in this movie matters; no character development, the story never evolves beyond a vague premise, its tenuous tie to the first movie is explained away with a MacGuffin that makes no sense at all, the villain has all of 5 minutes of screen time - with anything you might need to know about her being told through exposition rather than action, and the movie culminates in a laughable final fight that makes no sense within the context of the story. It exists for no reason other than shallow fan-service, but even then it fails because it's just so lazy and clumsily executed. The visual effects were also embarrassingly bad, and there were far too many unnecessary '3D' camera shots with stuff being pointed right at you. Just meandering, pointless, baseless, boring garbage...but it at least met my expectations. |

Saw this movie today... Felt like watching Hamlet/Lion King/Orphan twisted subplot. Why am I saying that? Find out yourself. Intense!! Directed by the Korean guy who made Oldboy and produced by the late Tony Scott and his brother!!! Fucking nice movie. A must watch.
10/10. No ending spoils from me.. And, this has nothing to do with Dracula author Bram Stoker either nor any of the characters related to him. |

Paradise: Love - Depressing movie about mutual exploitation where an obese middle age Austrian woman goes to Kenya and is introduced to sex tourism by some of the other guests. She feels unwanted and useless and tries to find true love while the impoverished "beach boys" are just looking for money. Thought it was interesting... lots of uncomfortable scenes too. 8/10

The Orphanage-10/10
Excellent foreign horror film. Not much gore, some creepy, great tension built up throughout the movie with an awesome but incredibly depressing ending. Pan's Labyrinth-10/10 Loved this as well. Loved that it was telling two completely different styles of stories at the same time. Great performances all over. But like The Orphanage, a great but really depressing ending. |

Not really a trilogy, but the only other film I can think of is possibly The Devil's Backbone which is another Del Toro film with a Spanish setting.
Although he didn't direct The Orphange. Mulholland Drive - 4/10. Someone fancy explaining to me what the fuck it was actually about? |

Oz: The Great And Powerful: 4/10
What? Seriously, I wanted to punch Franco in the dick for most of the movie. Not because he was a scumbag for most of it, but because he hammed it up so much most folks wouldn't call him kosher. And it only worked at one point in the whole movie. Finley looked shit. And my other big complaint. As Ugly as the Wicked Witch of the West is supposed to be, well. Which do you consider more hideous: or SPOILER: show On the plus side, 90% of the CGI looked great. The Land of Oz looked incredible. China Doll was incredibly well crafted. The story was serviceable. But the characters were kind of meh for the most part, excepting China Doll and Evanoria (sp?). |

Trying to think back through what I've watched and not reviewed.
Oz: The Great & Powerful 4/10 (GF score 6/10) Thought it was pretty boring for the most part, took forever to get going. Visuls were great though. Dredd 6/10 (GF score 2/10) Action film with little to no character/story development. Some great visuals and I imagine it would have looked great in 3D. The Amazing Spider-Man 7/10 (GF score 7/10) |

Arsenic and Old Lace - really good, light hearted film, seems way ahead if its time with its self parody. The entire time Cary Grant was tied up he was hilarious.
