I just watched "Argo" about extracting americans from Iran in the 1980 hostage crisis. Based on true events.

Even though I remembered how things happened it still had me on the edge of my seat a couple of times. I enjoyed it.

I watched Argo last week. I also remember the hostage crisis but was not at all familiar with the would-be hostages.

Yesterday, I watched Wreck It Ralph with my nephews.

The Other Woman. Hilarious!

deathbypoem · 05-08-2014, 11:18 AM

Lately we have watched:

the monuments men ( I will have to re-watch it b/c I was falling asleep at the time it was on lol), After Earth (Will Smith, great movie), Labor Day (good movie, missed the ending, which I heard was the best part, Have to re watch this one!), Secret life of Walter Mitty (Odd but so neat too).

Also, I have some questions about movies on my "To See Movie List". I don't want spoilers, I would just like basic feedback and opinions on the movies.

Here are a few on my list I am wanting to see. Has anyone seen these? Feedback?

1. The Railway Man
2. Winters Tale
3. Stalingrade
4. Face of Love
5. Million dollar arm
6. Frankie & Alice
7. Wrath of the Titans
8. Bad Country
9. The pretty one

Also, I am looking for other movies to watch and add to my movie list.

What I am looking for are documentaries/movies concerning the Holocaust and WW2. I have seen so many of them and I am searching for ones that I have not seen yet. So any ideas there, would be great.

Also, I am looking for movies based on true stories concerning FLDS and Polygamy. (Have seen a lot of these also)

And any other movies within these genres, based on true story movies that are in the genre of drama/psychological thriller either.

Also, very HUGE on Indie films as well.

Thanks to all who respond

I seen Annette Benning promoting this movie before it came out and she said it was based on a true event, not to be confused with a true story. It’s definitely a premise I’ve never recall seeing used in a movie before. Like I said, I rather enjoyed it!

so funny! i love madea!

The Other Woman with Cameron Diaz....but Leslie Mann always steals the show...IMHO

I enjoyed that movie, lotta laughs. I brought my mom to see it on mother's day and she thought was good also. I agree Leslie Mann got me laughing the most. I really liked the interaction with all 3 ladies.

Son and I watched "American Hustle" and we both thought it was okay, but we thought it would have been much better considering the hoopla we heard about it.

Philomena.

Excellent but a sob-o-thon for me.

Girlfriend fairly dry-eyed.

Go figure.

WildHorses · 05-17-2014, 08:58 PM

Blackfish - I liked it-interesting.

This fascinating documentary examines the life of performing killer whale Tilikum, who has caused the deaths of several people while in captivity.

Duchess · 05-17-2014, 09:17 PM

Transcendence

Really cool movie. Love Johnny Depp. Hope there's a part two.

Gráinne · 05-18-2014, 08:54 AM

I confess it was Godzilla!

. We're not talking Sir Lawrence Olivier here; but for what it is, it was fantastic. I'll just say they left it open for a sequel.

Talon · 05-24-2014, 12:15 PM

Blood Ties....Clive Owen & Marion Cotillard

Synopsis: Violence erupts when two brothers on two sides of the law face off over organized crime in Brooklyn in the 1970's.

Yes, I enjoyed it w/the exception of Mila Kunis' horrible NY accent.

homoe · 05-24-2014, 03:10 PM

A film directed by Denis Villeneuve; it was adapted by Javier Gullón from José Saramago's 2002 novel The Double.[1] The film stars Jake Gyllenhaal in a dual role!

This movie was just to far out there for me! I watched it on Demand so afterwards there was a discussion between Jake and director Denis Villeneuve, but even that I didn't watch in full.

CA_BabyCakes · 05-31-2014, 07:54 AM

Went to see Malificent last night, as a request from the kids. I absolutely loved the movie!! I will for sure be watching it once more this weekend!

ProfPacker · 05-31-2014, 08:03 AM

I don't have the kids this weekend but probably will go with them sometime and then I suspect when it comes On Demand and Netflix it will be a repeat, a repeat and a repeat. And next weekend I am taken up with Orange is the New Black starting 6/6. Mommy time hahaha

I so agree with you!

I read your review and we decided to take a chance on it anyway.

Bad move.

After about 15-20 minutes my girlfriend said: "I don't like this movie" and I replied: "I hate it. homoe was right-we should have paid attention".

It did get in the 60% range from Flixter and the Tomatometer critics/viewers. We thought it would be a fairly sure thing.

Next up to see: Chef. Looking forward to that movie.
