Two to one, that's definitive. BvS fight was bogus.

Man on the Moon yesterday, Taken today.

Both are allright movies, but don't blow me away.
Jim Carrey overacts annoyingly hard in Man on the Moon, and Taken would have been more fun if it didn't take itself so seriously. It's too dumb to have earned it's semi realistic style.

I can't quite understand how people can defend the DC movie universe with the **** they've put out so far. There are various moments that shine, but man they suck as a whole.

I wouldn't mind if they just rebooted it now.

I agree with you but one of those shining moments was the damn fight scene in BvS everything else building up to it was super boring.

Ebert's review of Taken is so spot on. (I love that movie BTW)

Quote:
If CIA agents in general were as skilled as Bryan Mills in particular, Osama bin Laden would have been an American prisoner since late September 2001. "Taken" shows Mills as a one-man rescue squad, a master of every skill, a laser-eyed, sharpshooting, pursuit-driving, pocket-picking, impersonating, knife-fighting, torturing, karate-fighting killing machine who can cleverly turn over a petrol tank with one pass in his car and strategically ignite it with another.

Now listen to this. Using CIA contacts at Langley, Mills is able to use his garbled tape of their conversation to determine the name of his girl's kidnapper (Marko), that he is Albanian, that his ring kidnaps young tourists, drugs them and runs them as prostitutes; the virgins are auctioned off to Arab sheiks and so on. Headquarters also tells Mills he has 96 hours to rescue his daughter before she meets a fate worse than death, followed by death.

With this kind of intelligence, the CIA could be using bin Laden's Visa card in every ATM in Virginia. It's the set-up for a completely unbelievable action picture where Mills is given the opportunity to use one element of CIA spycraft after another, read his enemies' minds, eavesdrop on their telephones, spy on their meetings and, when necessary, defeat roomfuls of them in armed combat.

I thought the movie was quite entertaining too much of the way, but I kept thinking that it would work better if it had feld more like a mid 80's Arnold movie. It is too gritty and the bad guys are not twirling their mustaches enough. In fact, there isn't even a real main villain. He kills every badguy within 5 minutes of introduction. He's just too effective! :P

After Hitchcock's Psycho, I'm on a 50's-60's thriller buzz. So I'm watching North by Northwest.

North By Northwest is great. And the final shot is hilarious.
