What Was The Last Movie You Saw? Welcome Cinephiles.

300: Rise of an Empire
and
Mr.Peabody and Sherman

Both were good films. 300 was a a good telling of the larger sea battle of Thermopylae, and not just the battle of the 300 Spartans. Very powerful key roles played by women in the film. If you are into brutal CGI fight scenes, it's a winner.

Mr.Peabody was fun and I am sure if you weren't a fan of the original it was a blast. I was left longing for the original voices and timing of narrators from the Rocky and Bullwinkle shows, but overall it was fun. Enjoy!

I finally saw Million Dollar Baby.....

Watched the Wolf of wall street today... not a bad movie..to much drugs, sex and nudity. I know I don't believe I just said that either. I'm just not into that kind of stuff in a movie anymore. Think I will like it better when it comes out on TBS LOL..

But hey it was as great a movie as Scarface if you ever want to watch it with ten friends and take turns drinking tequila shots each time someone drops the "F" bomb.

The Haunting (1999 version). Remake of the '63 classic from Robert Wise with Julie Harris who passed away recently. Liam Neeson, Catherine Zeta-Jones. Interesting F/X.

Up next, tonight...

Non-Stop (2014)

Non-Stop (2014)

Non-Stop is an action thriller with Liam Neeson, Julianne Moore and Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey.) It's good. If you're a fan of these actors (I am), you may want to check it out. It starts with texts and other shit flying (no pun intended), but no spoiler here.

Im watching the mini series (bio pic I guess youd call it) about John Adams. I came to admire him and Abigail when I read an amazing biography about their profound and beautiful relationship.

I'm just getting ready to sit down to Wolf of Wallstreet. I'm hoping it's as good as I've been hearing. Sex, nudity?? Hmm sounds great! :-)

Jet · 03-29-2014, 11:47 AM

Got a copy of Hindenburg (2011) for tonight. Another take. Interesting to see this version compared to The Hindenburg (1975) with George C. Scott and Anne Bancroft.

cinnamongrrl · 03-29-2014, 12:13 PM

while flipping through the channels I found a really old really good movie....Same time, next year.
It stars Alan alda and Ellen Burstyn. Its an interesting story...

The Peacemaker (1997)

'Kill Your Darlings'

about the very 'early years' of Ginsberg, Burroughs, Kerouac.

I was kind of keen to see this, having missed it in the cinema, but I found it quite boring - which is a feat in and of itself - how can a story about Ginsberg, Burroughs and Kerouac be boring?

And yet, have any of the biopics about the Beat Poets been any good? Maybe 'Fear and Loathing' ...

I watched this a couple if weeks ago. What did you think of it?

ForeverMe · 04-10-2014, 02:25 AM

I watched 12 years a slave last night.

Not as good as I had hoped, but still worth watching. http://m.imdb.com/title/tt2024544/

I was disappointed. Some head injuries can cause a loosening of inhibitions. I didnt see that in this movie. I saw a depressed, unfulfilled, bored spouse searching for something elusive. She didnt seem too happy even being a clandestine sex worker, surrogate, therapist.

QueenofSmirks · 04-10-2014, 07:20 AM

Dallas Buyers Club - good movie, but it felt somewhat "held back". In other words, I felt like it was building toward something huge that never happened. I would still recommend it.

I think that everyone that I've spoken with has loved Dallas Buyers Club, until now. I was not really impressed. It was ok, but not something I'd watch again.

I loved this movie. The emotion in it is so genuine.
