Well the others had at least a hand-wave of a plot. The kind that would fit on the back of a dirty napkin, scribbled over dinner. This one was just a loosely connected series of fight scenes.

Lord of the Rings was boring, all 3 of them. I can only imagine (since I'm never going to watch it) how boring The Hobbit is.
Django Unchained....loved it and everyone I know who saw it also really liked it.
The purpose of that movie was to milk the audiences without adding to the story. I was a fan of the franchise but I don't know if I'll bother with the sequel. All they did was make up a flimsy premise in order to parade a few of the old crowd favourites that bought it in previous installments.
Watched Clubbed and the Thompsons last night. Clubbed was a good watch. The Thompsons is an interesting twist of a vampire story. The main character even makes an amusing dig at Twilight in the first few minutes.
That's why I felt the need to comment the way that I did both about Resident Evil, and The Hobbit. I've been a fan of both going way back (that's almost 40 years for Tolkien's books) so if someone like me says "Meh" to them, that hopefully means something to people who would otherwise go to see them.
Just watched " this is 40" .. dont waste your 2 hours on this movie.
"Jack reacher" was an alright flick.
"Looper" was a good movie. Gets away from the usual bs type movies to something more original.

Got the Bourne Legacy dvd....was not expecting it to be as good as it was. Watched it twice already...thought it was very cool.
Watched Expendables 2 last night...think the first one was better...too much dumb comments and I'm back crap. Jason Stratham was the best of the lot of them.
Can hardly wait to see Django unchained...like here all comments have been great about this movie. Which is good as I'm a huge western movie fan.

It was alright, not really as epic as it could have been. I spent the whole movie trying to pinpoint what they did to joseph gordon-levitt's face.
Is it off the chain?? My newspaper review was pretty negative but reading between the lines I could tell it was pretty good. Caught Quentin Tarantino talking about it on Charlie Rose. He seemed to like it. I think his weird facial contortions are unrelated that tho.
I dunno man, that's a pretty forgettable movie. I'm pretty sure I saw it. I liked Ewen McGregor better in the BMW ads.
Just finished watching "Moon", starring Sam Rockwell. If you like more cerebral SF, without lots of 'splosions 'n stuff, then you might like it. There were a couple of times when the irony hit like a sledge hammer though.
I thought it was excellent.
You quoted me revrandy so I'll respond but what I have to say doesn't really belong in a movie thread. I really struggle to enjoy movies anymore. Jaded. So done with the fantasy world. I go to be a good sport. I know what butters my bread.
