I saw A Bronx Tale over the weekend for the first time. I loved it! It's basically a true story based Chazz Palminteri's life when he was a kid. Did you know Chazz did a one man show on this subject years before the movie came out?
About six years ago, I saw Halloween (2007) at the theatre. It was a reasonably good horror flick, but it’s not for the squeamish.
On Monday, I (finally) saw Halloween II (2009) on my laptop. The movie was absolutely horrible, even though my laptop is awesome. Halloween II is one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. Avoid at all costs, even if you liked the 2007 prequel.
Thank goodness Gravity was a great movie. (By the way, it’s not a horror film.) I had almost lost hope for humanity after watching Halloween II the previous evening. Gravity was amazingly good. I’m not a big fan of Clooney, but he did a superb job, as did Sandra Bullock.
I don’t care who you are, or what type of movies you like…
You need to see Gravity. 8)

+1 This is one of the best films of the year. Read my review of the film. If you’ve seen the film, tell me if you agree with the review.
And honestly, how often do we get to praise space films for NOT having us be afraid of ETs instead of the normal calamitous stuff in a natural world?
Location: Where the girls are green and the grass is pretty.
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.
Interesting true story of an editor of Elle magazine who had a stroke and was reduced to only being able to blink one eye. Locked-in syndrome.
He wrote the book himself through the laborious process of an assistant running through an alphabet (arranged with most common letters first) and him blinking when he heard the right letter.
The physical and speech therapists do an amazing job.
Max von Sydow plays his 92 year old father and there are some very attractive nurses.
It could be melancholic, but this is parried by suspense and the drama of his memories and the women that loved him.
Similar theme to “The Intouchables”, which I enjoyed far more.

Three films on the big screen.
Back in June I saw Man of Steel (2013). It was pretty good for a superhero movie, and there was plenty of action. This film begs the question, "How do you defeat an enemy that is practically invincible?"
Last week I saw Captain Phillips (2013). I'm probably in the minority, but I thought this movie was boring. I liked Tom Hanks' performance, but there wasn't enough going on in the film to keep me interested. If Captain Phillips were more tightly edited, I would have liked it a lot more. I should add that I don't have much of an attention span.
This film rocks! I heard that the books are better than the movie, but I didn't read the books, so I was very happy with the film. Ender's Game is like a cross between the original Star Wars (1977) and The Karate Kid (1984). Ender's Game has to be one of the best sci-fi movies I have ever seen.
Do you mean you watched the movie, or you're really enjoying this thread?
i meant the amy adams movie
What did you think? Was it scary??
I have a feeling this thread will be amended together with its title and become a photo or gif of a Squirrel…
How bright is bright enough...
Runtime VS Lumens...
I watched the new Riddick movie this past weekend. I really liked it. It is almost as good as the first one.

Very good movie about Formula 1 racing
Pacific Rim on DVD, good movie I think. I have to agree on Oblivion, I think that is a good movie also.
Hangover III
I don't know , I think the humor was a bit forced .
It seems to me that each one got progressively darker .
meh
What I do
Ya it will be released in my country by tomorrow, can’t wait to watch it! The first one was nice, quite scary, how about this one?
+1, I love it and I find it kinda scary as well. Another reason watching it is because the director was born in my country
That's no Disney flick!
Egg and Stone also won a Tiger Award…

I watched Man of Steel last night. I had low expectations but it turned out to be quite good. ^^
Cinema was District 9
DVD was Freeze Frame
On laptop was Heavy Metal and I still can’t find the Loc-Nar. :exmark:
Dem acceleration shots.
I watched it a few nights ago; I enjoyed the action sequences.
Dirty Harry – Sudden Impact on Blu-ray, Good film even with the hideous opening music and it being a bit too 80’s at times.
Fun with Dick and Jane, Jane Fonda & George Segal
Gravity.

“Sanctum”….thanks to someone here at BLF. Lots o’ flashlights!! Kind of silly and a high body count, but great cinematography!

Try watching “Serbian film” http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1273235/ if you have guts :Sp
Sickest masterpiece I have ever seen…
It’s really not suitable for everyone.

Ender’s game. Loved it. And if you loved the movie, you will definitely love the books.
Just stop once you read the second book, or you'll be left with a very sour taste.
