well, now ya askin!
I watch at least a movie a night as the TV in uk pretty much sucks and my hubby cant cope with it.
We are tough critics here..!!!
Avatar...hmmm pretty mediocre story but special effects ok. Not the best ever in my book.
Book of Eli...bit slow but an interesting idea and ending was intrigueing but didnt blow me away.
Case 39...spoooky and pretty well done.
Sherlock Holmes...just brilliant all round movie.
2012...good also, special effects really brilliant. Good family film
Elektra...an oldie but very good not gory and ok for kids. with Jennifer Garner in sexy red outfit!
The lord of the Rings trilogy re-watched...bit long and pretty tedious!
Lovely Bones... not as good as the book but quite an interesting take on it.
Time Travelers wife...bit confusing and i have read the book, a tricky one to take to film so a bit of a miss sadly.
Inglorious Basterds...ooo I loved this one but a bit gory in places.
ok thats all i can think of...oh and I saw ' On the Up ' and I cannot for the life of me see what all the fuss is about , pretty average movie?!
As you can probably tell some of these are not open in the UK yet so I am a naughty downloader...anyone recommend torrent sites?
Hope you enjoyed the movies you saw..!

Hubby and I LOVED Inglorious *kitten*. definately gory, but HIGHLY entertaining

I watched 3 movies this weekend
1) The Invention of Lying - pretty good. I found it funny but I could see how some people could find it offensive.
2) The Gamer - Surprisingly really quite good. A well thought out story, great action scenes, just enough violence and gore and great performances by Micheal Hall (Dexter), Gerard Butler and Zach Effron (I think).
3) Daybreakers - Also surprisingly good. It is an interesting and different vampire movie with Ethan Hawke. Really makes you think. After all in this time of SARS and H1N1 a "vampire" virus doesn't seem quite as impossible.0 -
so, over the weekend, rented Zombieland (hubby's pick) and Surrogate (sorta his and my pick). Watched both, and really thought Surrogate was pretty good- a bit of the sci-fi stuff going on, but entertained with it. Enjoyed Zombieland surprisingly. I loved Woody Harrelson in it - he was awesome, and totally made the movie pretty funny in parts. more of a comedy/zombie movie - like Sean of the Dead (sp).0

I just watched Paranormal Activity. It was okay, a bit slow at times...but man, if that stuff was happening to me? I'd soil myself...often.0

I LOVED Zombieland! and Bill Murray was great too in it!!! hubby thought it would be lame and dragged his feet on going to the theatre but when we walked out he was trying to figure out when it would be released on dvd so we could buy it.
also Shuan of the Dead is one of my favorite movies 0 -

I saw that at the theater and was terrified for days. I slept with a rosary on, and I'm not even Catholic....normally scary movies don't scare me at all, but this was about the devil, and it really got to me. I'm skeered of the :devil: !!0 -
also Shuan of the Dead is one of my favorite movies
Mine too!!

I don't know if I could watch that Paranormal Activity movie- I couldn't sleep for weeks after I saw the Ring. I can't do creepy little kid/ghost movies.. too scary.. mindless zombie crap that my husband loves, I can deal with..0

ok, so went to the Redbox and rented Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs, and that was pretty cute, and rented the Matt Damon movie (which I was really looking forward to) the Informant - and let me tell you, what a bitter disappointment. so sad, save your $1.

I saw Inglorious Basterds last night. I didn't think I'd like it, but I liked it a lot.0

Avatar in 3D is awesome. :]0

If you haven't seen sorority row, zombieland, or hangover, those 3 movies are AMAZING! lol. zombieland is a scary movie but it's funny as well. the hangover will probably make you pee yourself because it's just so funny. lol. and sorority row is really scary. but it's also really good. i've been wanting to see dear john in theaters for so long but i haven't had time to go. that movie is a real tear jerker i've heard.0

my husband wants to see District 9, has anyone seen that?0
-
ok, so watched District 9, reminded me of an X-files meets Cops episode, but my husband enjoyed it. Also rented 2012, that was pretty good actually - love seeing Woody Harrelson in movies lately, he's had some pretty funny roles! 0
-
Went to see Date Night on Friday, was cute and funny - totally laughed about it (since hubby and I were on a date night) if you go to see it, make sure to stay until after the end credits- they were showing some outtakes throughout the credits, and we stayed, and there was another outtake at the very end. FYI. cute movie!0

The last song was such a good movie. If you haven't seen it, you definately should. It definately will make you cry though. I really want to go see Alice in Wonderland, She's Out of My League, The Bounty Hunter, and Date Night. I'm not sure if they are good though. I heard that Alice In Wonderland was really dumb. The other 3 look very funny though. I'm going to see Oceans on Earth Day. 0

Avatar in 3D is awesome. :]
Awe I really wanted to see that movie.0 -
I saw Kick-*kitten* over the weekend and LOVED it but it's definitely not for everybody0
-
It rained all weekend in WI so I watched:
Julie & Julia (To my surprise I really liked this movie, but it was all about food and really good food, so don't watch it hungry)
The Men who Stare at Goats (This movie had a really weird plot so that was interesting, but it dragged a little)
The Hangover (Hilarious! Very highly recommended)0 -
I have wondered about the Men who Stare at Goats movie, it looks kinda funny, but it also has that potential (like the last George Clooney film I watched - Burn After Reading) that all the really funny scenes are actually in the previews...
I loved the Hangover, found it pretty funny and entertaining..
watched part of Paul Blart, Mall Cop over the weekend on one of our movie channels, and laughed...the Hello Kitty Bandaid gets me every time..0 -
Saw "Nothing Like The Holidays" Saturday night. Very good movie.0
-
We watched Avatar (finally) this weekend. Loved it.
Loved Alice in Wonderland, The Ugly Truth and The Hangover (though that could have been funnier)
The Wolfman was pretty lame, although it made me jump a couple of times.
:flowerforyou: jewel0 -
We saw How To Train Your Dragon last Friday. TOTALLY CUTE!!0
-
Went and saw Clash of the Titans, it was pretty good. And for the person wondering about Men Who Stare at Goats, it was a lot different than I thought it would be and the funniest parts are in the previews. 0

7 pounds with will smith was interesting. may keep you off the phone while you drive.0

Saw Avatar this weekend -- AWESOME!!!!0
-
I saw Iron Man 2!0
-
well, was it good?0

rented Sherlock Holmes from the redbox, did enjoy it (and was surprised - not sure why I thought I wouldn't like it, other than thought they maybe should have used a British actor - Hugh Laurie for instance, or Hugh Jackman, or someone with an English accent existing).
We also rented the Box - the movie with Cameron Diaz, but I can definitely say, don't waste your $1. I didn't like it at all, had way too much build up of like a zombie movie with some kind of outer space thing going on, and not enough of a back story development I thought. Lame.0
