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. http://www.mediamikes.com/wp-content...or-banner2.jpg 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. |

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.

Fucking awesome movie about South Korean rebels attempting to assassinate a corrupt general during Japan's occupation of Korea. It's stylistically similar to many other movies about crazy assassination plots (some parts reminded me of Bodyguards and Assassins, although that movie was made in a completely different country, and it was about people trying to stop an assassination), but it really found a way to stand out from the crowd. At first, I thought it was simply an okay movie, but it just got better and better as it went on. There's a bit of comedy here and there, with some jokes being legitimately clever and others coming off as kind of cliche, but overall it was pretty charming. I felt that the dialogue was mostly pretty strong, and there are some great memorable lines. There are a few scenes where the movie shows and talks about the atrocities committed against the Korean people by Japanese soldiers, including the slaughter of civilians, and I noticed on my way out of the theater that a few older people in the audience were crying. It's not the most historically accurate movie ever, but it seems like it still managed to remind some people of a very real and very dark point in time. |

Demitri Martin - Live *At The Time This showed up on Netflix randomly, so I decided to watch it. I've always loved his one liners and his sense of humor so I knew i'd like this. However, I didn't realize how much I'd like it. He certainly goes beyond what he's done before and really knows what's funny and what's not. Definitely a good use of your time if you have the time. I laughed the entire way through. |
