Anyone seen any good movies?

[Luke]

I think we need a movie thread around here where people can put movies they watched recently so the rest of us will know if they are any good or not.

Two movies I just watched in the last week were :Fast and Furious and Couples Retreat .

Fast and Furious was good ,proabably the best one since the first one .It was good to see Paul Walker and Vin Disel back together . I'd give the movie a B+

Went and watched Couples Retreat last Friday on "date night" .I really liked the movie and thought it was very funny. There were some corny parts in it but there are in every movie. Some of my friends didnt like it but they dont like Vince Vaughn ,they are more into people like Will Ferrell. I for one like Vaughn and thought it was good .I give it a A-

Angels and Demons was pretty good. Recently watched Sex Drive again, still laughed my ass off.

Good idea for a thread.

But I have to disagree about Fast and Furious. I thought it was pretty decent, but in my opinion they go in this order: 1, 3, 4, 2. I really liked Tokyo Drift even though it's the lowest grossing of the series.

If you like straight-to-video martial arts films, then here's one that I WHOLEHEARTEDLY recommend





I saw it recently and thought it was great. Michael Jai White, who I've been a fan of for years, is very charismatic and has awesome martial arts skills. The story is good enough. The choreography is excellent. And a few MMA fighters show up here and there, including Kimbo, Gina Carano, and Bob Sapp.

If you know where to look you can easily find a high-quality download.

Re: Anyone seen any good movies?

Couples Retreat is good I seen it at the theatre ,I also seen Hangover there too. Hangerover must have been taped late 2007 because you can see the cranes in the background still building the Wynn Encore

Couples Retreat was ok, most of the funny shit was shown in the previews.

Avatar was fuckin long, but pretty good.

Inglourious Basterds was just "ok"?

I thought that movie was fucking spectacular. But then again I'm a QT whore.

Re: Anyone seen any good movies?

Law Abiding Citizen was pretty good, but the ending kind of sucked.

The informant was boring as hell for about the first 30 minutes, but it was actually so stupid, it was funny.

I agree. IB was fucking bad ass. The scene in the bar is classic.

QT is the shit.

Re: Anyone seen any good movies?

I went and saw Boondock Saints II last night.

Overall, as a fan of the first, I found the second to be disappointing. The tone is too light hearted and there's too much cheesiness. Troy Duffy seems to have decided he was making an action comedy instead of a bad ass action movie with the occasional comedic moment. It has some redeeming qualities, and could've been a worthy successor, but ultimately doesn't live up to its potential.

I will say that Troy Duffy is a talented guy, though. The only two movies he's made are Boondock I and II and he's pretty impressive for someone who never went to film school. He just needs to work a little harder on the script next time and give the fans something closer to the original.
