i watched Cliffhanger a few days ago. It was a good watch.

Watched Sherlock Holmes, which I liked, and then threw in Rock N Rolla for the first time (Guy Ritchie kind of day) and thought it was slow to start, but good by about halfway through.

Yeah, it's on my list too.

I saw Right at Your Door the other night. I don't think it was that well made, however it did keep me up until 3AM so I guess there was something good about that movie.

I just watched Sherlock.

Pretty weak plot but the casting was pure gold.Pity they couldn't come up with a better script.

Great to see Robert Downy back in the game.

That is how I felt also. I liked it, but it was definitely carried by its acting.  Certain parts seemed lacking.

you both should get on that right away. in my opinion, the best movie of 2010 so far. watch it twice to see how scorcese and ALL the actors in it are geniuses.

I just finished watching Good Will Hunting. I think Matt Damon and Robin Williams were amazing in their roles, however I felt the movie and the plot was meh. How many films have you seen with a diamond-in-the-rough plot? It's been regurgitated over and over again and this film is no different. That doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. It's a watchable film, but it really is overrated.

It's not your fault, Will.

Over time that movie has become a favorite of mine.  Whenever it's on tv I seem to watch it.  I think Will and Sean (especially Sean) are very interesting characters that keep you watching the movie.  Their scenes together are the best part about the movie.  They're two obviously scarred people that you want to see grow and become better people.

Haha. Same here.

Last Starfighter.

Oscar material.

[chick de la lynch]

The "it's not your fault" scene was melodramatic, even for me and I'm a sop when it comes to that kind of stuff. But I do agree, Will and Sean's relationship was one you cared about and both of these men have had their fair share of problems in their lives. You didn't really give a shit about anyone else and essentially, the rest of the characters were background noise (Sorry Skylar)! This film reminded me how great of an actor Robin Williams is, it's just too bad he has a tendency to waste his talents on movies like Old Dogs and License to Wed.

One big problem I had with the film was the Boston accents. People say Long Island accents are annoying, but it's really the Boston accent that is utterly irritating.

Holy fuck was Toy Story 3 good.

Saw Adaptation the other day and really liked it..Spike Jonze never ceases to amaze me.  Charlie Kaufman was the executive producer and after some research, I found out he's been involved with quite a few of my favorite movies.  One movie I haven't seen though is Synecdoche, New York which is his directorial debut.  Can't wait to see it.
