One of the few movies that I consider to be a masterpiece of narrative.


Watched parts of this movie yesterday (had seen other parts before!) with my brother and it was a cool one.
I think the last film I watched was Kill Bill 2. It was on TV a few weeks ago, I didn't pay attention to all of it, but I enjoyed it.

Guardian's of the galaxy, best movie of the year imo.
Guardians of the galaxy, one of the worst movies I've seen in my life.

Guardians of the Galaxy It was a good movie but still no match for the Almighty Samurai Cat Empire
I really wanted to like it because I paid a lot of money to watch it (I usually get free tickets) as I heard good things about it. But nope spent most of the movie thinking about how uncomfortable my bum was and whether we should walk out.
The plot was the exact same "Stop bad guy X from getting object X and ruling the world" in every Marvel movie, but they somehow made everything else worse. There was no characterization for any of the characters, especially the bad guy. The action scenes were mostly boring and use a Deus Ex Machina every single time. The tree guy was a walking Deus Ex Machina, even though he was pretty adorable. All the jokes fell flat for me, which is made worse by the fact that the Chris Pratt character actually thinks he's funny and spends the whole movie trying so hard to be funny in a 4th-wall kinda way. I can enjoy stupid movies- the first transformers and the recent godzilla were both awesome, but stupid, boring and unfunny is a bit much.

Hans Zimmer's amazeballs soundtrack helps a lot too for me. DC (and more specifically Nolan) is often criticised for being too serious and not making "comic book movies" but rather "movies about comic book characters" though, which seems more like praise. But I don't even see it, the Dark Knight has its fair share of wacky moments and implausible plots.
Have you seen the first Iron Man though? If you're anything like me I think you might enjoy that too.
I like the first Ironman too. The second was good too, but I still need to watch the third one.
In Batman movies, all Christian Bale movies are in 'great' category. Considering the last Superman movie was a very good one and I was really impressed by it, it's 2/3 guaranteed 'Batman vs Superman movie' won't be a disaster!
Guardians' sdtrk is awesome
Transendant.
Horrible movie. I didn't think I could fall asleep during a Johnny Depp movie. But it happened.
My mother and I had a gal's night out last Tuesday, something we haven't done in years.

That is post neorealism. I want to see that.
Just rewatched:

How Guy Ritchie can't get the sequel greenlit is beyond me, that movie is brilliant!

Waaay too boring for me >__> Oh well, it included Lena Heady so all is well.
