Merged: The Movies Thread

I'm watching this Life of Pi movie right now. I can't stand it. Can't understand half the stuff these people are saying.

Still have Lawless on the DVR to watch. Hopefully that one is good.

Also saw The Iceman. Decent flick. Worth the Redbox rental.

Machete Kills looks like a classic. Hope it's as great as the first

Anyone hyped about Gravity? Loved Cuaron's Children of Men... this one should also have some crazy cinematography.

What a kooky cast. Met Danny Trejo once with my mom... super nice guy.

I am, Cuaron has done some of the most cinematically beautiful movies and this one doesn't look to disappoint on that aspect.

Gravity: 2 hours of Sandra Bullock spinning in space.


I saw Prisoners last night. Good movie. Worth seeing. Makes you think afterwards. Didn't feel like 2 1/2 hours. Paul Danos an underrated actor.

Just saw Gravity last night, IMAX 3D. The movie was breathtaking. I literally had my mouth open for much of the movie.

That being said, some gaping plot holes- and some cheesy plot lines. If you're the type that watches a movie and any slight inconsistency ruins the movie for you, probably won't love it.

If you can suspend your disbelief slightly and buy into the plot; it will blow your mind. I left awestruck and thrilled. Worth the $20 price tag.

Ok. I saw Gravity.

Let me start by saying it was a good movie.

That said; it was predictable (in my opinion), and for a movie thats an hour and a half long (short by todays standards) it still had parts that were boring/dragged on. Is this movie worth a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes? Hell no. Is it worth seeing? Yes, its a one of a kind movie. Is it worth spending the extra money for 3D? Yes. If I were you and you want to see this movie, see it now, while its in theaters on the big screen and not when it comes out on DVD/TV/Netflix/Redbox (unless you have a humongous 3D TV with Great surround sound). Did I see why the critics like it? Sure, but a lot of these critics need to pump the brakes on this. Its a good movie but I wouldn't say its one of the greatest all time nor one of the best of the year.

I'd give it a 7 out of 10.

Sound of My Voice seems to split people- no in between. Tell me what you think of it after seeing it. The duo's new one is called 'The East.' A bit too heavy handed for my taste, but I applaud the originality. Think a hipster Fight Club meets V for Vendetta.

Glad you liked the Imposter. I felt the exact same way when I watched it and saw myself slowly rethinking things as the story unfolded.

I thought Sound of My Voice was entertaining. Pretty damn good. I really like how they set the audience up and like how they just drop the ending and leave a lot of questions on the table. My question was the black lady really with the Justice department?

Couple documentries I watched on the netflick streaming I really enjoyed "I like Killing Flies" and "Last Days Here"...I gotta friend really into the band Pentagram and Last Days really sets up the story well and the rebirth.
