There Will Be Blood is excellent, curse anyone who says overwise. My only gripe is the slow pace, but it's very fitting for the overall theme of the film so that can be forgiven. The cinematography alone makes it a standout, especially pared with that ****ing soundtrack. Ugh. Too bad it's already 3 am cause I kinda want to watch it now.

I love the action scenes in No Country. The rest of the film is pretty flawless too. Damn, I haven't seen that for a few years now...

Hands down, one of the greatest movies ever.

I prefer The Master to There Will Be Blood. Both 10/10's tho

Revolver - starring Jason Statham, directed by Guy Ritchie of Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels/Snatch/RocknRolla fame.

First things first, this is a pretentious movie. Secondly, if you are not familiar with the movie's genuine message, then you may be left wondering what the hell this film is about (for example many people who watch it claim it's a movie about chess, but it's not, although chess and the philosophy of chess do feature heavily).

I enjoyed it immensely however. Indeed it's become my favourite Guy Ritchie movie. But I reckon it's a love it or hate it kinda film.

I don't wanna say too much incase of spoilers, but it's basically a philosophical/spiritual movie masquerading as a typical violent, gangsta flick.

Neighbors

I laughed a bunch but it's nothing to really write home about. I did like how the characters weren't one dimensional though. Rose Byrne was pretty funny. I also now want to attend a Robert De Niro party.

Lone Survivor

First 2/3 is a very well made action film. Intense. Brutal. Painful to watch. The last third however is kind of atrocious which makes sense because most of it was written by Peter Berg. Ben Foster was REALLY good. I love seeing him pop up in movies. The very end with the actual photos got me choked up. It's a fractured film but one I enjoyed overall.

Not to start a political discussion, but I mentioned somewhere else that I supported the idea of drone strikes into Pakistan since I have a friend in the military.

This is the movie that drove me to that conclusion. If I've got to support American imperialism to save a loved one from that, then that's just what I've gotta do.

I just remember hating the trailer that featured Berg talking about the movie. I loathe those low rent previews you see before movies, and it seemed just like that.
