Gangster squad - 5.5/10
Lack of character development, the writing wasn't great and the story was really flat and vanilla. Really enjoyed the 1950s settings though. I enjoyed the acting of a select few characters though.

Just that fucking good.[/QUOTE]
i have this, will see it this week
The innkeepers 3/10.
The movie is filled with unnecessarily dragged out buildups to underwhelming payoffs, plus some jump scares. Just like the entire movie. It builds up, some running happens [sp]the main character dies[/sp] and the end, roll the credits.
There is only one good, very short scene during the running that's actually creepy/scary.
Gangster squad 7/10
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;39167822]Why is The Hobbit considered such a joke by the critics? I know that it had it's problems, but was it seriously all that bad? I really enjoyed it.[/QUOTE]
its pretty much movie comfort food
as in mostly unremarkable
Bad Ass: Loosely based on the 'I Am A Motherfucker' badass on the bus who beat that dude up a few years back, it's a film with Danny Trejo starring as the old man, who must find the killer of his best friend. It wasn't as action packed as I was hoping, but was an entertaining flick. Lots of fist fights and a bit of good gore, one scene in particular.
Not the best flick Trejo has starred in, but a solid 2.5/5
The Raid: Redemption: Awesome story, awesome fight scenes, awesome violence and some intense moments. (I'm timed here, can't write much).
Great movie, one of my favourites I've seen as of late.
4/5
Chronicle: Exciting and interesting to anybody who has ever wanted superpowers, it was entertaining for the most part, but a one time watch. There wasn't too much going on to make me want to watch it a second time.
3/5
Evangelion 3.0
[sp]8.5, /a/ thought it was disappointing, but I disagree.[/sp]

because everything about it is terrible
finished second season of Wire... this just gets better, I expected it to either start a whole new direction and leave everything behind, but this just carries on expanding..
Still haven't heard "shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit" yet so I'm guessing it gets better.

[QUOTE=Killuah;39154620]7 Psychopaths 8/10 and surprisingly enough the German synchro didn't fuck up too bad.
The plot about a writer who writes the movie reminds me of "Adaption"[/QUOTE]
was it better than In Bruges?
ParaNorman
8/10
Gangster Squad 6/10 - enjoyable but it never got really good, kinda just plateu'd in the first few scenes
Lincoln 9/10 - Just a really, really good movie, it's been accused of oscar baiting but fuck that, it deserves oscars
Life of Pi
8/10
amazing visuals, but I felt like the CGI of some of the animals felt a bit off. did anyone else get a bit weirded out by the tiger? idk it doesnt even feel uncanny or something its just plain weird. especially the whiskers!! it was really off-putting..
some parts felt a bit slow for me too, like when he was [sp]talking about the 'second' story, the one with the human[/sp]. That part in the book was much more resounding and powerful, i think. still a pretty solid movie though.
also for some reason in the middle of it during the fly-fishing scene the whole screen went 3D, did anyone else experience this?
8/10 Seven Psychopaths
I agree with the people who said that it's a whole lot different than In Bruges, except for maybe some of the humor elements, but I still enjoyed it a lot.
the TV show thread is burried somewhere so I'll ask here.
is Lost worth getting into? I've heard mixed opinions.
I've seen the pilot. Doesn't seem bad, but I can't really say much for now. So it it good or not?

i did but i kind of regret it, it's ambitious but becomes awful towards the middle, towards the end it picks up again but by that time you don't feel fulfilled.
worth a look, if you like the first season.
Life of Pi - 4/10

Rusty100, Ladies and Gentlemen.
Total Recall remake
2/5
Watching Resident Evil Retribution right now, i'm half way through and it's so bad i'm not even going to bother finishing it, -4/10
Didn't even pause it to go take a shit
Probably gonna get soo much hate for this but i just finished watching [b]Apocalypse now: Redux [/b] and completely hated it! It felt extremly "jumpy" in the presentation, slow and just.. completely uninteresting.
I can see where it wanted to go with the madness in Vietnam and such but nothing of it got to me. Atleast the acting was superb...
3/10

sorry for rating but have too much care for that film.

Yes, ofcourse!
I can absolutely see how someone could like and/or love this movie, but it just wasn't something for me, which is kind of sad since I've only heard praises for it but i guess i was expecting something else. Probably will rewatch it sometime though.
[B]Kung Pow: Enter the Fist[/B] - 11/5
It was alright.

Did you just call Apocalypse Now completely uninteresting?
How is this even possible.

not even close
Seven Psychopaths, maybe a 6/10.
I just thought it was insanely disappointing. It wasn't as charming, smart, funny, or coherent as In Bruges was. Narratively it was kind of dumb, too. Colin Farrell's character was writing a movie called Seven Psychopaths which was just a really dumb and bad movie - and that was reflected hugely in the actual movie we were watching since they constantly intertwine. A lot of bad ideas, cliches, and super corny stuff.
The movie's saving grace was some funny scenes but even they were underwhelming.
I liked the movie, but it was sooooo disappointing. It was just so average, only borderlining on good.
