Watched the French film 8 Women with a couple people today.An interesting murder mystery, with some very odd songs, and equally odd lesbian scenes. It's sort of a nod to the old murder mystery genre especially the locked room (think J. Dickson Carr or Agatha Christie). Interesting, but the ending was a bit abrubt. Worth a rental if you like detective tales of yore.

 

Also finished watching The Thorn Birds with my roommate (who's Jewish and asked at one point: Is a priest supposed to have sex with people?) yesterday. Classic but overacted and melodramatic. More fun with a bottle of wine and people that don't mind snide comments throughout the movie.

I rented Assault on Precinct 13 about a week ago, thought it was fantastic.  That's all I got. ;)

Isn't that a follow up to Training Day?

Saw Longest Yard.................funniest movie of 2005.

 

Only thing or things about that movie I liked, was Courtney Cox's post pregnancy cleavage.

Every once in a while, in a marriage, you have to 'take one for the team'. Last night was one of those nights. We went to see "Bewitched'.....that might very well be the worst movie I have ever seen. Ya ever had such a bad time somewhere that you actually become angry? :angry:

Just rented Collateral and Cellular.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Cellular was surprisingly entertaining. Fast paced and short. Nothing to write home about, but fun.

Collateral was surprisingly good.

 

^^^ That is pretty much what I thought too. I didn't expect much and came away pleasently surprised... it was a little cardboard and predictable at spots, but not too bad.

I just saw Clerks for the first time tonight.  It's really incredible how good the writing was when considering how low budget this is. Kevin Smith really is a genius writer.

 

Wow, you just saw Clerks? Have you seen any of the rest of the Kevin Smith movies?

Sadly just the Jay and Silent Bob movie. Needless to say the rest of his movies are on my must seee list.

I finally saw Troy last night.. I'm not so into those kinds of movies, but I really enjoyed it.

 

Also.. saw Hitch over the weekend.. Will Smith is hysterical and hugely underrated as an actor IMO. Kevin Smith had me LMAO also.
