Jerry Maguire


Forgotten how good this film is but the question remains, WTF happened to Cuba Goodings career?

I am Legend

Considering Wil Smith was pretty much the only actor in the entire movie, I'm suprised that I found him less anoying than he appears to be in his blockbuster appearances. I thought it was a bit weak over all though as a movie, It ended and nothing had really happened.

5/10

Unhinged

A very B Grade slasher, nothing happens, absolutley nothing.

2/10

It's kind of how I felt about I am legend. Smith is very strong, the visuals are all nicely built the film can make you emotional... yet it's just not a very good story, and you end up sitting back thinking... "I wish that movie had have been... interesting, because it was almost good."

Base Moi

This was very controvesial in Australia, it got banned after screening for a week or so. This was the first time I have seen it, I liked it, I didn't think it was that harsh. It was baned due to the rape scene mainly, all the rest of the sex and violence was pretty gratuitous as well, the sound track was good and it was all over very quick. just a dirty little fantasy.

7.5/10

Slumber PArty Massascre 2

It was fun for a while, rock'n'roll horror, but then it just got ridiculous, um...

5/10

Last film watched was Fargo.

Last horror film watched. Stephen Kings 'Storm of the century' for the umpteenth time.

There Will be Blood

It gets better with repeated viewings.

8/10

Definitely give There Will Be Blood a spin as soon as possible.

And yeah, I'm with you on Dexter. Really fun show. I'm finished with the first two seasons, but I need to catch up on the third.

La Règle du jeu (The Rules of the Game) (1939)

This one always gets better with repeat viewings. One of the most truly relevant and ventrous indictments of bourgeois society in all of its spectacular absurdity. It really takes to heart the Shakespearean idea, "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players". It's also hard not to be blown away with the techniques employed in filming it, too. The scenes are complex, and the camera work dances, fluid and graceful. As director Wim Wenders said about it, "In the years before the Steadicam, you wonder how a film camera could possibly have been so weightless." Watching it is a 106-minute-long film class in itself.

Adaptation. (2002)

Brilliant. I'm always jealous of Kaufman's writing.
