D-Money Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Big Hero 6 - 6.5/10 Not bad. Had some laughs, especially with the robot. Didn't expect it to be so dark. Edited January 31, 2015 by D-Money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Big Hero 6 - 6.5/10 Not bad. Had some laughs, especially with the robot. Didn't expect it to be so dark. dark? what did you find dark about the movie? i thought it was incredibly inoffensive and easy going. easy markers of identification for whatever shape, size, race your kid is etc anyway, speaking of movies i hate... doing some old Oscar best picture winners: shakespeare in love: 4/10 a few cute lines, but camp-levels of romance. shakespeare recites shakespeare in rhythm with his thrusts. token scenes with famous quotes that don't fit the narrative at all, but are probably easily recognizable to audiences anyway... just straight up crap. to think this beat out saving private ryan, thin red line, and even life is beautiful... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckofSteel Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) Nightcrawler- 7/10 Jake Gyllenhal was great in the movie, but overall I thought it was alright . I do think the movie was overhyped and doesn't live up to it. To me this was one of Jake Gyllenhal's weakest movies.

g_bassi13 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Tremors - 9 KevinBacons / 10 spoiler - turns out those bastards broke into the wrong goddamned rec room. edit- man we were making jokes during the movie, but I just looked at imdb and it is the same little girl from Jurassic Park I think we used to have this movie on VHS when I was very young, or I otherwise watched it a bunch of times on TV. But I then managed to grow up with this movie somehow never again being mentioned by anyone, so whenever the idea of the movie used to come to mind, I began remembering it wrong as a low budget, obscure film. I then later found it was the large cult classic that it is. Makes it all the more odd that I went 15-20 years without even the name of the movie ever coming up. I still haven't seen it since that time, though I'm starting to think I really should go find a copy to watch (maybe I still have the VHS.)

Sure, on the surface it was sugar-coated, as you'd expect. And yeah, Shakespeare In Love winning the Oscar was a farce. I liked it more than you did, but is not half the movie Life Is Beautiful is.

I actually knew where each of the commercial breaks were, and the deaths were a little more graphic/bloody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked it more than you did, but is not half the movie Life Is Beautiful is. what's weird is that i didn't really 'feel' any of that. while it's obviously the plot, i felt zero emotional reaction to any of it, which is maybe why i didn't find the movie all that dark. sorta reminded me of the plot to the early aspect of the spiderman narrative/lore, to be honest (apparently BH6 is a comic book too?) does life is beautiful hold up? i loved it when i saw it way back int he day, but i don't remember much of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campier than True Blood? Anyways, watched Birdman. 9.5/10. Riggin's scene with the critic at the bar was amazing. The whole movie works on so many levels and about so many things so it's a stupid thing to nitpick about but how is his nose blown off by a gun pointed to the side of his head at the end there?

Tangelos Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Catch Hell 2/10 I didn't think it would be possible for Ryan Phillipe to be an even worse director than he is an actor but I stand corrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Chef - 7.5/10 Really enjoyed it. Though I'm a big Food Network fan, so I'm also not surprised that I did. Enjoyed how natural the male relationships were handled in the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
