Last Seen Contemporary Movie

[Khaleesi]

All the Boys Love Mandy Lane--felt like an Abercrombie & Fitch commercial and the kills weren't that creative, but at least the ending had a twist.

We Are What We Are--Enjoyed it.

Requiem for a Dream--watched it yesterday, still haven't completely processed it yet, though.

Heartless (British one, 2009). It's a kind of a fake-horror movie where hero's fantasies mixed with purposeful lie of his surroundings leads to a number of weird events and terrifying images. But sadly it fails. The movie doesn't hold that strong level that it actually needs. First 40 minutes are good enough but the rest 60 are complete WTF.

Dead Man Down

streaming on netflix

pretty good revenge thriller

Les Misérables

It was good, I dug the cast and of course the story was well written, the only issue I had was the length. I wasn't turned off by the fact that it was too long, it was the fact that the length combined with some disjointed transitions irked me. As a whole I enjoyed it though, I just don't know if I'd watch it again.

I love me some Dead Boys.
Their debut is one of my all time favorite albums.

Wolf on Wall Street.

All I can say is wow.

Enjoyed it quite a bit. More on the lines of first film than the second.
Sci-fi lovers will dig the first 30 minutes, before the bounty hunters make their entry.
For all those who dig giant creatures, get a load of that huge, fierce Alien-esque mo-fo at the end.

Yep. The cinematography is excellent. Needs to be seen on a HD 50" screen (minimum) with surround sound, preferably in the theater.

Yeah saw Riddick recently too.
I actually preferred the second one, which many a fan seems to have deemed as the worst...I think that I just enjoyed the setting and the epic scale.
I see the third as you guys have said, much more towards the tone of the first.
It was stripped back, which was also good in another way.
Core character was showcased a little more, always liked the way he played with humans.
Not sure how to even rate it compared to the other series - like, I wasn't disappointed in any way, it was fun to watch.

If you're interested in the character, there's a double pack containing both of the games available on steam now. Pretty cheap. I liked 'em.

Watched "The People under the Stairs".
Could not remember this at all, always a pleasant surprise.
Sure, it's a little absurd. Acting is a bit questionable, but I dunno, I found something kind've charming about this ridiculous tale.

Elysium.
I liked some parts.
