The Fugitive 8/10
The story was quite simple, but really intrigueing and the acting was top notch. Had a fun time.
Harrison Ford is a master at running away from people and sweating.

Not a patch on Taken, the lead was not an interesting character, and events felt oddly disjointed.[/QUOTE]
idk why people like taken so much. its the worst
Taken was fun but Taken 2 sounds terrible will not see its his daughter saving him I think wtf
taken was a geriatric bourne movie but with paper thin characters and a stupid senseless plot
yea but it was p enjoyable to watch I mean I didn't go in expecting a masterpiece or anything
I dont think Taken is that good
I cant say I hated it, though
taken is good because neeson is an old man running and hitting people.

Same reason I like Harry Brown, An OAP going on a chav killing spree.

this is the only reason anybody likes the movie and its a terrible reason to like something

and liam neeson is insanely overrated. i mean, he's good. he's just not that good. plus hes in tonnes of fuckin garbage these days. he was in battleship for fuck sake.
I liked the action in Taken because it felt different compared to every other movie in the same genre. Like, more raw and gritty I suppose.

So what. Tons of good actors have been in poor movies.
I'm not sure how you mean overrated, you mean "overliked" which is kind of a dumb view.
His best performance imo, is Kinsey and nobody here has seen that.
I'm honestly not sure why Liam Neeson is in so many bad movies
Neeson has done a good cross section of characters from ex-CIA to sex scientist to Nazi industrialist to IRA head and more. I can't remember a performance from him that blew me away but he has a good mix of good and bad films as most actors do.
AK's recommendation of Kinsey is a good one, it covers the changing public perception of sexual matters becoming more openly discussed and the science of its behavour. A film like that always slips past the radar.
i watched project x. [URL="http://rustysreviews.blogspot.com.au/2012/06/project-x-2012.html"]it was really really bad (revieww)[/URL] and i give it a 2/10. don't watch this movie if you have any semblance of human decency
then wouldn't that be a 1?
why is it 2 instead of 1?
or is 2 "don't go see this" and 1 is impossible because you clawed your ears and eyes out at some point in the movie

Is actually a prequel to Aliens, or barely associated, other than the Weyland-Yutani connection?
more than barely
[editline]8th June 2012[/editline]

Different planet but quite related.

I can't believe that all these events were caught on camera. That's all I can say.
Watch it if you haven't.

well look at it this way
the hangover is 5/10 because it wasn't any good
the hangover 3 was worse so it's a 3/10
project x is even worse so it's a 2
and a 1 would be something that's unwatchably bad as opposed to borderline watchably bad. i don't even know what would be a 0. maybe sucker punch lol!!!

Because it contained boobs.
[QUOTE=GunskiMod;36256543]Because it contained boobs.[/QUOTE]
no, its plethora of pointless and sexist objectification contributed negatively to it's score
Prometheus
8/10
Not as scary as I thought it was going to be

I was asking that guy because he seemed sympathetic of Margaret Thatcher, something I can't believe someone who lives here could do.

Only the working and middle class dislike her. That's only like 95% of Britain.
Let me see if i still remember the British social classes:
Lower - modern Slave. No ones property, but not their own. Suicidal. No teeth
Working - Trivial job, no life, no teeth, possibly depressed.
Middle - may own a house or rent one, trivial job, low income, has family and social life.
Upper-Middle - Owns their own place, still lives as a family, Non-trivial job or self-employed, good income, posh kids who act in Harry Potter. Otherwise known as Politician Class. If the fortune is inherited there's a high chance that they have no idea about how life works and is clueless about society in general.
Upper - Rich as all fuck, Possibly Titled. In case of title, crooked as fuck teeth and inbred through 15 generations or just fucked a prince of wales and got the title in a divorce settlement... or fucked the young princess in the 50s.
