Title: Movies I Seen Lately
Post by: Mr_Grenade on July 14, 2002, 09:38:52 am
Behind Enemy Lines : Basic no brains , bullshit action flick . Didn't like it .
The Royal Tenenbaums : Funny ass movie , Hackman and Owen Wilson who starred in the previouslly mentioned movie are great in this one .
The Captain Harlock Saga : Old school anime , i found it to be mediocre .
Manhunter : See Hannibal Lektor before SOTL , a good movie . (Based on Red Dragon which is being made into a movie now, again.)
13 Ghosts : A good way to torture someone is to make em watch this movie . I had to fight to make it through it .
Ghost World : Good flick , check it out .
Smokers : All i can say is don't watch it .
The Score : Thats the end of the movie ? is what you will say ( or if ya seen it said ) after watching ths flick .
Shallow Hal : Mmmmm.... no real opinion on this one .
Ghosts Of Mars : A brainless action/sci-fi/horror flick .
The Stand : I know i'd die in the plague , cause i'd have way too much fun if i didn't .
American Outlaws : Just rent Young Guns again .

My cousin just got UHF on DVD so i get to see Conan The Librarian .

Hmm, lets see the most recent movies I've seen are:
On The Line-Lance Bass movie, good for a romantic comedy.
Rat Race-Surprisingly good story even if the middle parts aren't always funny.
The Royal Tanembaums-Very good script, not necessarily funny-haha but overall is humorous.
Gosford Park-Great movie, builds a ton of characters and the webs between them.
Devil's Backbone-Spanish film somewhat like Sixth Sense and very spooky and good.
Slap Shot 2-better than the first IMO, fun movie

Now notable others from the first half of the year
Waking Life-Fucking excellent film with unique style.
Donnie Darko-Defines weird...in a good way.
No Man's Land-Academy Award winning foriegn film could very well have deserved it (haven't seen Amelie yet).
The Man Who Wasn't There-Another great film from the Coen Brothers.

Other two on your list that I've seen
The Score-Didn't actually say that as I figured it is the end since so many do things like that to confuse you.
Ghost World-Decent but I wouldn't call it great, just odd, but the blonde was attractive...

No idea Sho .

Yeah Bondo , The Man Who Wasn't There was a good flick . It was funny to see the blonde from Ghost World in that movie since i saw GH a few days before TMWWT .

Apparently Mr. Grenade and I are the only cultured ones who watch arthouse, foriegn, and small-budget films ;).

Lol Bondo !!! WM needs to get off the puter for a few hours and visit the damn video store .

I also saw Duets : how can you go wrong with a movie with Huey Lewis ( and i ain't talkin about that dude from Die Hard that looks like him ) in it ? Man , thats the third movie i listed with Gwenyth Paltrow in it .

*realizes that although he knows who Huey Lewis is, he doesn't know what he looks like and thus can't remember who from Die Hard that Grenade is talking about*

Anyway, you might be interested in checking out www.radiotiki.com.  They have a guy there that reviews a lot of movies and tends to catch a number of the art/foreign films and IMO he tends to be much better as a rater than your typical reviewer.  To hear the movie review segment just go to one of the shows and click on segment 5 (on 6 part shows) or just figure it out by looking at the show log.

I liked spy game too, just wasnt violent enough. If you liked that, you will like Bourne Identity. That was a good flick

Haha UHF is great, my bro just got it on DVD also. Nice commentary trakes, as well as some less then quality deleted scenes (Aparently they were VHS tapes that sat in Al's closet for 10 years). I enjoyed the Royal Tenenbaums aswell. I didn't think it was as great as Wes Andersons previous film (Rushmore) which is one of my alltime favorites.

I don't watch many B-movies or anything, alhough i try to stay current an am a big movie fan. Horror is still one of my favorite Genres. Anyone ever seen the Evil-Dead series? the original is the best IMHO. Two kindof blowed, three is good however,just more light hearted with more comedic tones. 13-Ghost wasn't that bad,lol. It's no classic but not compleatly crap. Tony Sholoub (SP) is quite a great actor an Comedian in his own right IMO. Havent you ever seen "Wings"? He has a new series on USA now also.

I personally liked Shallow Hal. It is more dramatic an has few more romantic overtones then most of the Fariley brothers movies. Although its still cool, i like jack black.
Speaking of Stephen King novels turned movies, i had the pleasure to watch one awhile back on the USA network. The Langoliers (SP) i dunno how i missed it for so many years. It wasn't half bad although.

Yeah Piccolo those UHF deleted scenes were really , really worth deleting . I used to watch Wings and i thought Monk was good . If ya haven't seen Quick Change ( Bill Murray , Randy Quaid ) , Shaloub plays a foreign cabby in that and is funny as hell . I kinda grew out of the horror genre , but i think ED/2 and AOD are cool .
