**Rerun's Movie Reviews**

[George Jung]

"DEATH PROOF" -  Part of the "Grind House" Taratino/Rodriguez double feature.  FANFREAKINTASTIC if you are a car chase movie person.
 

I hate that I missed this one in the Theater and I will be looking forward to the upcoming Rodriguez release.  When they finally release them together I will hopefull make the purchase.

    I have just taken my daughter to " Hairspray". We loved it. John Travolta in a dress. What a hoot!!     

I really enjoyed this "remake" also. Though it was very similar in most ways, this version was based off the Broadway play instead of the original movie. I also really like the music in this one and had to purchase the soundtrack.

Mr. Woodcock   

SOO hilarious.

3:10 to Yuma - starring Russell Crowe, Christian Bale, Alan Tudyk, Peter Fonda and Gretchen Mol

Great movie - a remake of the 1957 film by the same name starring Glenn Ford and Van Heflin.

The Kingdom   

[goofynina]

Went to go see The Hearbreak Kid, (definetly not a movie for kids to see) but i thought it was funny 

Across the Universe,  i have to admit, when that movie started, i was like, what the hell did i get myself into, we almost got up and left 3 times but i just figured, it got to get better, and all in all, i am glad i stayed, it was more of a psychadelic acid trip, but it did have a good story to it.

I'm going to watch Saw IV tonight.. i will let you know how it is! Anyone else watch it yet??

[charee]

a friend dropped over the horse whisperer pretty good

[goofynina]

In theaters now, American Gangster with Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe, whew, a must see 
That Denzel just gets better and better, 

[jbeany]

Watched Akeelah and the Bee today - very sweet, and no, I couldn't spell most of the words.  I can barely spell prestidigitation with the spell check, let alone out loud without writing it down.
 I really liked The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio.  Very cool that they had the actual family playing themselves at the end.  I need to get the book it was based on. 
Children of Men was good in an odd, unsettling sort of way. 
I started watching Elizabeth.  I'm not much for movies based on actual history - like watching Titanic - ya know the ships gonna sink, and on this one, I know it's not going to end well either!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....splat

I have not seen it yet Amanda... so don't spoil it, BUT, I have a question. I heard that it is really "before Saw 1". Meaning... if you have never seen any, you could see 4 and not be lost. True?

Either way, i can't wait to see it, gotta love Saw 

[ODAT]

March of the Penguins 5 stars
Happy Feet 4 stars - awesome songs
Jungle Book 5 stars - great songs! go King Louie
Harry Potter all 4 movies amazing read all books (don't worry I won't spoil the end (if it is really the end...))
Transformers - fantastic!
300 - saw this on an imax scene - picture that! Great story
Wildhogs - took eight 15yo boys to see it (son's birthday - then we went midnight bowling) They loved it!
Babel - thought it was dry
Borat - did NOT get it
Fried Green Tomatoes - 5 stars!
Grease - my sons (16 and 18) love this movie! (me too!)

I love Nicolas Cage. Ghostrider was fun. "Next" was similar to "Butterfly Effect" which starred Ashton Kutcher. I really liked both. "Faceoff" starring Cage and John Travolta. "Gone in 60 seconds", I could go on and on with Cage (lol)

Since it's snowing right now thought I'd mention an all-time classic "It's A Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Stewart! I bought the video years ago and could only find the colorized version. Some movies just need to be watched in black and white and that's one of them. I'll keep looking though!

Great thread - learning a lot and took notes of what movies to watch! thanks


Had to add that I agree with goofynina on "Little Miss Sunshine." Didn't get it. That's one you either love or hate.
Angela, loved "Ratatouille" - took my mom to see it. We actually jumped at a few parts!

[goofynina]

I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry is out on DVD today, if your in for a good laugh, this is the one to see, lol 

[angela515]

Babel - thought it was dry

I also had problems with this movie. It ran in circles too much, and wasn't all that dramatic... or exciting... so yes, dry! Good word!

We saw American Gangster last weekend. I love Russell Crowel and Danzel Washington so if you are a fan of them them I would recommend the movie.  I thought it was pretty good but not great.  Let me know what you think.
