Started this thread on other boards and figured it'd make more
sense than starting a thread for every movie I watch. Watch too
many damned movies.
Django Unchained (2012) - Have seen every Tarantino film since
Pulp Fiction in the theater. (even Jackie Brown :P) This one was
a really fun action movie and pretty funny. Wouldn't see it if
you can't take hearing the "N" word though. Christopher Waltz
and Di Caprio were both great in this one. It was a bit overly
long though.
Hot Rod (2007) - I found this one fairly amusing. Wasn't
expecting much, but good for a couple laughs.
Alter Egos (2012) - Billed as a comedy. Was more of a superhero
drama. My feelings on this one are mixed. It was a bit goofy in
places; but overall it was interesting to see someone doing
something different and less "edgy" with the genre. Also liked
the fact the costumes were spandex for once and not Cgi in every
shot. Though the mask of the main character was pretty terrible.
Northfork (2003) - Normally I'm a fan of weird cinema. This one
just fell kinda flat for me.
Total Recall (2012) - Colin Farrel, Jessica Biel; and Kate
Beckingsale in the leads? Yeah I knew I was in trouble when old
Schwarzenegger can out-act all three of them combined. The movie
itself was a cgi heavy, uninspired yawn fest to be honest. Had
trouble paying attention to it.

MIB III - really liked this one. Will Smith was typical J, the
plot was outlandish and lots of funny moments. Not sure why this
got panned.

The Hobbit--awesome
Life of Pi-----very good
Argo---- incredible
Lincoln-- completely blown away
Harold and Kumar trilogy--funny as hell, but after watching
them, I felt a little dirty.
Amazing Spider Man- should not have waited so long to see it, I
think i liked it more than Dark Knight Rises.

I really want to see Argo and the Hobbit, but I'm leaning toward
waiting for both of them to come to the Redbox.

Went to the movies four times this week and saw:
The Hobbit- Loved it, but the CGI was distracting and it did
drag a bit in places. Nice to see some of the history behind the
story, though.
Monsters, Inc. 3D- I'm a Disney freak and had a free ticket.
Still a good movie, but not eye popping enough to deserve an
almost $15 price tag. Especially since it looked a bit darker
than I remember.
Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away- I love the shows so much, but the
magic really is being in the audience of a live performance.
This one loosely threaded all of their Vegas shows with a love
story plot, and while the stunts and acts were fantastic, there
is definitely no comparison to seeing them in real life. I felt
like it came off a bit like a commercial for all their shows,
really.
Les Miserables- Absolutely wonderful. And beautiful. But I'm a
bit biased towards musicals, anyway.

To me, the Hobbit really needs to be seen on the big screen.

Stake Land (2011) - Part zombie movie, part vampire flick. One
of the best horror movies I've seen in a while. Probably since
Let the Right One In. Very dark and depressing film though. Good
stuff.
Mulberry Street (2008) - From the same people who made Stake
Land. About killer rats/rat monsters in NY. Very claustrophobic
and like Stake Land very atmosperic. One of the better After
Dark Horror Fest films.
Killer Klowns from Outerspace (1988) - Haven't seen it in a
while, but have started working my way through the DVD
collection with the wife. (only so many times you can say "You
haven't seen ____?" KKfO gets a bit more dated each time I watch
it to be honest, but it's still a fun little 80s B horror flick.
God Bless America (2011) - Amusing enough movie about a
disgruntled older guy and a disgruntled youn girl who get tired
of modern society and start shooting reality tv stars. Or maybe
I just hate reality tv and am biased. Was a big disturbing at
times due to recent events in CT, etc. though.
Tenderness (2008) - I'm a Russell Crowe fan, which is why I
ended up watching this one. Funny how few of his movies hit the
theaters lately. (Kevin Spacey and Edward Norton too ::)) Decent
enough movie about a cop who follows a man around after he's
released from prison at 18. Bit of a road movie, with a pretty
bleak ending.
ATM (2012) - It had an okay premise; but wasn't anything
original. Pretty forgettable overall.

Caught a double feature today.
Broken City- not great but good, worth. The matinee price. Crow
was very believable as a corrupt politician.
Argo- Excellent. Loved it. Know your history.
