I really enjoyed nightwatch... Though not a great movie as a whole...it had some really great moments to it. Good ideas, and interesting takes on old themes.
Didnt know there was a daywatch already. I'll start looking for a copy.

THIS IS ENGLAND 10/10
Just watched it again and this film is just Sterling.
This part takes me right back:

I remember thinking I might add them to my list, but just forgot about them.
actually i'd like to change my rating to an 8-9/10. i'd happily add them to my official, non-tubes DVD collectionR00k wrote:Ah, thanks for reminding me -- didn't a lot of people say these were really good books?seremtan wrote:Nightwatch 7/10 (dubbed)

compared to 3, it was fucking awesome. TEN OUT OF 10!@!1111Foo wrote:Two was BS. Far too much to cover and it ended up being LOLACTIONLOLMUSIC for the entire film.

The Departed
I'm not going to rate it because a bunch of idiots would just crawl up my ass. Suffice it to say the cast was really good (with the exception of Matt Damon, who's always just ... Matt Damon) but I don't like Martin Scorsese any more, and this was just another opaque wannabe-epic populated with overly conventional and overly profane characters.
The Fountain - 7/10
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - 7.5/10
Woulda been 8/10 but any movie with testicular torture loses points automatically. Casino Royale much? And at least the swearing comes naturally in this movie.
300 - 7/10
Extremely watchable but unabashedly vapid. The really long takes showing an individual warrior cutting a swathe through the enemy were just awesome to watch -- I wish they hadn't kept switching between slo mo and fast forward.
Fracture - 5/10
The legalese doesn't work at all, and that's kind of important when half the film takes place in a fucking courtroom. Anthony Hopkins is king, but this didn't help him any.

its so awkward when you take a girl to the movies and you see that shit.
jesus, i saw grindhouse and there's a whole fucking bag of testicles. i mean it's satirical/referential in that case but still offputting.
That reminds me: I give planet terror a 6/10 because it got boring, and Death Proof a 7.5/10 because the dialogue is so brilliant -- which saves it from one of the most uselessly simplistic plots in movie history.

Really? I thought Death Proof showcased Tarantino's worst dialogue to date. The scene when all the girls are in the cafe bullshitting, that was some stagnant shit. But the movie did redeem itself in the end. =)sliver wrote:its so awkward when you take a girl to the movies and you see that shit.

The Breakfast Club - Dude stills looks like Jonathan Woss. Borderline feel-good but good dialogue.
AVP - Eh, its an action movie. Fair enough. You can't really rate these things in anything other than binary. "Does this movie contain enjoyable action yes/no" 0 or 1 out of 1...
The Bourne Identity - Solid spy/mystery action stuff. Though they must have hired Damon on the basis of finding someone who looks perpetually bewildered and out of his depth. The perfect vehicle for his skills. Somehow.
The Boondock Saints - Odd but enjoyable. Dafoe's character seriously disturbed me and casting Billy Connely as a cold killer gets my vote for pure awesome.
28 Weeks Later - Not a patch on the first one as it lacked emotional depth and the perspective of the original, but made for a good action movie so not a total loss. Killing with chopper blades is becoming a cliche, but hasn't quite stopped being awesome yet. The kid actors were completely and utterly unconvincing, but the scenery was brilliant.
I've watched a lot of stuff this week, been off work with teh flues.
