Madness Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) Reasonable Doubt - 5.5/10. Saw the description and thought it would similar to changing lanes. Okay movie. The Counselor (2013) - 5/10. Didn't really like it. Really thought it would be better. Edited June 8, 2014 by Madness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangelos Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Tokarev 1/10 Another crap Nicholas Cage movie. It's one of those films you watch to the end and realize it was completely pointless and a waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psylocke Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Maleficent - 7/10Visually, it was good. Story was a bit predictable and some parts were quite cheesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanTSN Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 X-Men: Days of Future Past - 9/10An absolute must watch.There's something about the X-Men that is far more endearing than most superhero movies. It's a real shame that they ruined X-Men 3 though. But hey, they can always reboot the whole Phoenix angle again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanTSN Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 'Her' reminded me of A.I. A creepy future that we don't really want. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avelanch Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 X-men days of future past. I really liked it, and am really looking forward ot the next one. stay after the credits (part of the norm for all superhero movies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) Dead Man Down - 5/10 Wasn't expecting much, so I give it a passing grade. Mostly what props the movie up to "watchable" is the stellar cast. Colin Farrell, Noomi Rapace, and Terence Howard do everything they can with their roles. Only reason why this is even close to watchable, IMO. Edited June 9, 2014 by Monty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009 version) - 3/10 This was just downright terrible. The 3 points are for: James Gandolfini, Luis Guzman, and for being less then 2 hours long. Just crap. Edited June 9, 2014 by Monty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 In a lesser movie, I am pretty sure it would have ended with Theodore dating Amy Adam's character. I was waiting for that to happen and was also pleasantly surprised when it didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I was waiting for that to happen and was also pleasantly surprised when it didn't. you're being very forgiving. the movie literally ends with them cuddling and watching a sunset together, doesn't it? that's one epilogue away from a wedding ceremony as far as i'm concerned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madness Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Tokarev - 3/10 Really bad. Out of the Furnace (2013) - 6.5/10 Not bad. Enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless I was happy to see the film makers not "slap you in the face" with it as so many tend to do. Edited June 9, 2014 by J.R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 If I remember correctly, they are just standing a few steps from each other being lost in the sunset. If that's what you count as cuddling, I'll make sure to stay away at least 10 feet for your comfort i havent seen it since it came out, but i thought she had her head on his shoulder and all of that. maybe i'm mistaken, either way i thought the ending was totally safe and conventional. yall just trippin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Liked the new Xmen movie, hadn't seen many of the previous films so don't know how much I missed out on. 8/10. Loved the scene with the super fast guy (sorry nerds, don't know his name) when he is running around the walls. I also liked their Richard Nixon.

I was just glad we didn't get beaten over the head with the stereotypical "they get together after all happy ending". Jonze left it open where it's certainly plausible they could but they could just as easily simply continue to be friends. He respected my intelligence that I didn't need to be spoon-fed the "happy ending we're all expecting" and that their relationship would evolve naturally from that point, romantically or not. It was a minor point but I liked it. Edited June 10, 2014 by J.R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_More_Larchide Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Non-Stop 5/10 Typical Liam Neeson action flick. Why Julliane Moore is in this movie at all is beyond me, her character seemed like it was created just to get another A lister in the film. Everything she did could have been easily done by the underused Lupita Nyongo's character, or any other random passenger. Very generic, but watchable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgillnuck Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Yeah, it wasn't terrific; however, I got something out of it in the end, so it was worth it. Haven't seen Filth, but Trance was awful; and I really like Danny Boyle. I didn't like Trance either. But Rosario Dawson almost made sitting through it all worthwhile.... I'm actually really back-and-forth on Boyle. He makes amazing sci-fi/horror (Sunshine, 28 Days Later) and really good dark comedies (Shallow Grave, Trainspotting), but I'm pretty ambivalent about his oscar-baity stuff (127 Hours, Slumdog Millionaire). And his high-concept thrillers are terrible (Trance, The Beach). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
