RATE or REVIEW The Last Movie You Watched.

Arrested Development - season 2 8.5/10

 

[Cocoboloboy]

What part of it has aged? Not challenging, just curious.

The whole thing I guess. Can't pinpoint anything really specific. I just think of other movies from around and a little before that time period like Raiders, ANH, ESB, and Jaws to name a few that I can watch over and over and enjoy them. WoK just seemed really cheezy when I compare it to how it looked to me when I was 8.

You're trying to tell us that a movie with William Shatner and Ricardo Montalban as the leads is cheesy? The hell you say.

Man of Steel

Just saw it. Everyone gave good performances, Cavill was Excellent and Adams played a great Lois. Costner definitely stood out. It Really redefined the term "action packed." It doesn't let up for one second, at all lol. The CGI was also top notch. The only slight disappointment is that it could've been more story driven. Best Superman movie by far. Probably one of if not the best action movie out there.

8/10

I will go see it Man of Steel only because most of my friends are nudging me too... Damn friends... pffft.

Man of Steel 9.5/10

 

[Eli26]

Eh. It had Kurt Russell as Snake. That made it watchable.

Not for me, and I like Kurt Russell.

 

[Eli26]

Has anyone seen This is the End? Lots of great reviews... I am intrigued. Lots of great Canadian actors in it and a superb overall cast.

I am more excited for this than Man of Steel.

Interesting. I thought several of the themes still hold strong today. Old age, feelings of not being needed anymore, dealing with loss and failure, rebirth... Additionally, the uniforms are still the best uniforms in all of Star Trek lore, the final battle in the Nebula had more excitement and tension than anything out of the new Star Trek movies, and Spock's death is still an amazingly powerful scene today. And Khan... still one of the best villains in all of Star Trek (IMO)

I just watched WoK a few weeks ago in its entirety for the first time. Meh. It was good. It was really good filmmaking in terms of technical details. But it was also very simple storytelling. It wasn't as deep as I imagined it would be. It felt a lot like Moby ****. Khan was Ahab and destroyed himself, his crew, and his stolen ship he could have flown to freedom in with the hopes of revenge. And honestly, he's so ticked off at Kirk but he was a bad guy doing bad things! He makes it sound as if what Kirk did was wrong. Nope. Marooning a bunch of dangerous criminals on an inhospitable world is not the most immoral thing a man can do. It just felt light to me and didn't have nearly the amount of complexity I expected it to have. It might be one of the better ST movies still, but just not leagues better than the rest as the impression is given by so many.

Anyways, randomly picked some movies on Netflix the other day:
Lay the Favorite - 4/10
The Details - 7.5/10

TWOK $h!ts on STID from a magnificent height. Thats all I have to say about that.

 

[Dark_Knight_89]

Man of Steel

This was a great movie! No its not the greatest comic book movie ever made, but it is easily in the Top 5. This is the first time I have watched Superman on film and really felt power.

8/10

Bring on the sequel! "Man of Tomorrow" or "Last Son of Krypton" spring to mind!

Man of steel 9/10 really enjoyed it .

Man of Steel 10/10
Fast and Furious 6 7/10
Great Gatsby 7/10
Star Trek 2 8/10

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Jack Reacher: 9/10
Very impressed and took me by surprise at how good it was. I hope it becomes a franchise. I would love to see another one. Such a great character.

The Campaign: 6/10
Decent with a few huge laughs.

Hyde Park On Hudson: 4/10
Disappointing. I was hoping for a bit more humor, since it was being sold as a light, quirky period piece. They also sold it more about FDR and the visit from the King and Queen, but it was mostly (and from the viewpoint of) his distant cousin with whom he has an affair.

Promised Land: 5/10
Eh. It was ok. It was a bit jarring because you didn't know which side you were supposed to be rooting for, but I suppose that was part of the movie's point.

 

[Darth Zangetsu]

Man of Steel 8/10. i loved the film. I can't wait to see more of this version of the DCU.

It's really, really really great. I loved every second.

 

[The Entity]

Limitless - 6.5/10

It had a good premise and some nice plottwists, but some things were just too farfetched...

Spoiler

There's a man with hedgeclippers, a dude with a baseball bat, but you decide the best way to deal with an attacker is swinging a kid with iceskates at him...

Also drinking that nasty gangster's blood? Pretty messed up...
