Fahrenheit 9/11 again. This movie never fails to amaze me.

although Moore is a bit overrated in my opinion(i mean, he's not fuckin' God) but his movies still are some masterpieces

...

:agrees to disagree:

i just mean: his movies are very good but all these ppl act like all he's done is a gift from god. there is an end to praising ppl you know. ok he's good but not the best :roll:

I liked Roger and Me. Bowling for Columbine was spotty and well I don't feel like bringing up Fahrenheit. I'll just say I'm not a fan.

The other night I was at my local annual horror all nighter. Here are the films I saw and a short review and rating for each.

Loft: Yet another Japanese ghost thing, and exactly what you'd expect from something like that. This one made no sense at all. But not in a cool "huh?" way like Audition. More of a lame "wtf?" way. 4/10

Boy Eats Girl: This was pretty funny all the way through, and quite gory, despite the fact it only had a 15 certificate. I enjoyed it, but it was still a total Braindead rip off- just less memorable. 6/10

Zombie Honeymoon: Contrary to what you'd think from the title, this was pretty much played straight, and was much better for it. Vastly superior to the nearest comparison, plotwise: RotLD3. Some parts were even quite sad, and the audience was allowed to find their own humour in the ridiculous situations that arose, rather than have it hammered into them through a load of very obvious gags. This film would be awesome if it hadn't completely lost it in the last half hour. Amazing psychobilly soundtrack, as well. 7/10

Hellavator: Crazy Japanese Sci-Fi horror about some people stuck a lift with some total psychos. Lots of violence and freakyness ensues. There's a lot more to it than this, but it's very hard to explain. But the two escaping convicts are the freakiest and most alarming bad guys I've seen for ages. And it has a total curveball of an ending involving the Eiffel Tower, for some reason. 8/10

Indeed.
A Very Long Engagement must be one of my favorite movies this year.

Saw Battle Royale again. Man, I love that film.

Awesome, awesome film. :twisted:

I think seeing it for the first time changed my life, at least for a few months...

the one where the jap kids fight to the death? fuckin' killer! that lighthouse scene is my favourite.

The book is better. But the film was good.

Second one was shit. The teacher was a pill-popping nutcase, though. Entertaining.

Pi - 3.5/4

Primer - 3.5/4

Jacob's Ladder, 10/10. My favorite.

Beyond Re-Animator. Yet another sequel that fails to live up to the original.

"Over the Top"

I forgot how funny this movie is. If you want to see 80's action, and laugh, watch this. Sylvester Stallone's son is such baby in this movie. "Sir, excuse me Sir?"

Yeah... I loved the way the kids escaped at the end of BR2, to start a utopian new life......


....in Afghanistan.

Moore's an idiot.

And he's fat.

No, idiots are what he exploits.

He's actually fiendishly intelligent.
