Are there any really, really good actors who are in their 20s?

Prometheus - I would say about 7/10. I finally saw the movie and it was less of a disaster than I expected. I knew people didn't like it much and were left with a lot questions. I think some of them don't need to be answered and some even don't matter in the end. But yes, there are some stupid scenes, some scenes could use more explanation.
I survived about 7 minutes of 'The Love Guru' I give it 1/5 stars. That's being lenient because everything seemed to generally be in focus and well lit.

[QUOTE=JesterUK;42192149]I'll give 2 a go and ignore 3. Apparently it doesn't even have Peter Weller in it. What the hell.[/QUOTE] 2 is underrated in my opinion, I like the movie except the whiny child and mounts of filler in the movie but still like it. The ending fight scene was best scene too
[B]Kumare (2012)[/B] An Indian American makes a docu film about guru's and that wacky section of middle America who can't seem to cope without that mystic bullshit about crystals, inscense and karma delivered to them via some spiritual man. He decides to become a fake guru himself and quickly builds an entourage who cling on to his every word. It would have been very easy to do a Sasha Baron style comedy when dealing with such needy stupidity but he decides to help them and prove a simple truth. Its funny in places and its obviously building up to a grand finale where he will reveal his true self. The overall quality of the film was good, the voice over he does himself and the characters who cling on to him are very easy to judge as you watch them. I thought this was excellent as a docu film and I recommend it. [B]Devils on the Doorstep (2000)[/B] Japanese occupation of China in the war is 8 years in and a village is given 2 Jap soldiers in sacks as captives. They are told to keep them for a few days and interrogate them. The villagers have no idea why or whats going on but they end up stuck with these 2. I went into this expecting good things but what I got was over 2 hours of back and forth dialog about 'what will we do' and arguing. Thats all well and good but an hour and a half would have been more justice to such a story. Take away the filler and theres a good deal of quality but by the time we got towards the end I was fighting to stay awake. This could have been a very good film but it wasn't. Kisses XXX.

Shit le Bouf might get a chance with Von Triers next flic but I just hope he doesn't fuck it up like everything else he does.

"Now you see me" was certainly interesting to watch, nothing special though.
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World - i honestly dont know what to say. apparently most of the reviewers really liked this one, but i didn't have fun watching it at all the whole style is really cool (mostly the special effects and the cinematography) but the story is just so stupid. i can see why it worked as a comic book, but as a movie it sucks
scott pilgrim is a weird one for me. I've seen it probably 4 times now and honestly I hated it the first time and enjoyed it a fair bit on second viewing, but then also thought it was kinda terrible on the other 2 viewings Idk. It's inconsistent as fuck. Its visuals are terrible (well they're not but imo they do not work at all- even if it is meant to be comic book esque) and the dialogue is 80% trash. It's too stylised and doesn't work. The acting is dodgy as fuck too, although the same with the dialogue, I can tell it's on purpose. [editline]15th September 2013[/editline] vegan bit is 100% amazing tho. Best part of the film by miles. Also Scott Pilgrim is a legitimately bad human being.
this is the end - 6/10 I've heard nothing but good things about this film, watched it yesterday and was very disappointed, it had a few funny bits but it was not very good imo
I don't like American Psycho
Insidious: Chapter 2 - 4/10, the movie had some good scary moments, good atmosphere and good cinematography, but the story was all over the place. It was very hard to follow and it had too much going on in too little of a time span. I saw the first movie, and if you haven't seen it going into this one, then good luck following anything. Also at the end,[sp]obvious sequel bait[/sp].
Day of the Dead Not sure on this one. It's not bad, but it's not my favorite. I like Dawn of the Dead much more than this one, but Night of the Living Dead is about equal in terms of preference. Have yet to see Land, Diary, or Survival and not sure if I should. [sp]The ending was also kinda lackluster.[/sp]

[B]Underground (1995)[/B] The 1995 winner of the Palm d'or at Cannes is a rather mad and surreal Yugoslav tale of 2 friends who are scoundrels and playboys during the German occupation in the war. Its as though the war has changed nothing for them as they make trouble and live life. A woman comes into the equation and everything changes. I really don't know what to say about this one as its all rather nutty at times with extremities in terms of visual sets, characters and dialog. It reminded me very much of a Peter Greenaway film in the sense that at times the script is like the ramblings of a madman yet still worth listening to. I'll summarise: a chimp, 2 friends, deception, war and a good romp. Worth a look if you want something a bit different.

Land had a couple moments, Diary was garbage except for this one deaf/mute Amish guy, and Survival looked bad so I never watched it.
Honestly my favorite parts of Dawn and Day are Tom Savini's effects. They're so awesome.
House of 9 - 6/10 Bad acting, except that crazy french guy. It's okay. Still on my endless search of the lost movie

[QUOTE=DudeGuyKT;42206831]Then why did you rate it 6/10?[/QUOTE] 6 is a pretty low score.
[QUOTE=Sungrazer;42210181]6 is a pretty low score.[/QUOTE] It's above average.
[QUOTE=pansarkurt;42210404]It's above average.[/QUOTE] Ya but if someone were to recommend a film to me with a score of 6, I'd pass. That's the kind of movie you watch when you're being really lazy and it just happens to come on TV and you can't be bothered to move to change the channel.
[QUOTE=pansarkurt;42210404]It's above average.[/QUOTE] Really? Above average sounds complimentary. I'd say closer to 8, maybe even 9, would be "above average". 6 is very close to mediocre. EDIT: I think I just got the term wrong! I thought in this case, "above average" was just sort of a label to scale a 6-10 rating, and obviously 8-10 would be the "outstanding" part of that scale...
[QUOTE=Duxfever;42210831]Really? Above average sounds complimentary. I'd say closer to 8, maybe even 9, would be "above average". 6 is very close to mediocre.[/QUOTE] The scale starts at 1, being absolutely awful, no redeeming qualities whatsoever. It ends at 10, being a masterpiece no other movie could top. Therefore five is average, and 6 is above average.
[QUOTE=Duxfever;42210831]Really? Above average sounds complimentary. I'd say closer to 8, maybe even 9, would be "above average". 6 is very close to mediocre.[/QUOTE] That would be correct if movie ratings were treated the same as school grades.
[QUOTE=Duxfever;42210831]Really? Above average sounds complimentary. I'd say closer to 8, maybe even 9, would be "above average". 6 is very close to mediocre.[/QUOTE] You think 9 is above average. Who the fuck are you, IGN?
Can't believe I haven't rated 'Man of Steel' yet. 5/10 (lower if I don't feel like being nice to it)
