Movies I've Watched So Far




Killing them Softy
   Imagine the Soprano's with less tact and pazaz. Worth noting, well known wise guy gets sweet slo-mo hit.

Stoker
  Weird girl grows up to learn she's an even weirder woman.

Pain and Gain
  True story of idiots who commit kidnapping and murder.  Good performance form Tony Schalube (sp).

Awake
  Elaborate murder plot unfolds while a patient is under anesthesia.  He can hear everything, but can't do anything about it. A movie that'll leave you thinking "what a bunch of dicks".

Assassins Bullet
  Meh, worth watching.  Some twists, but mostly predictable. Wish it were true!

Pusher
  British movie with unwinable Quadrafinia type ending.

Upstream Color
  Uuuuuugh...  Canadian art film with difficult-to-connect sci-fi plot.  Lots of droning music and montage-like boring artsy footage.   Let's hope someone with a good B-movie mentality remakes this one. It has potential.

Meskada
   Who done it cop movie based in a rural Montana county.  Seemed more like a pilot than a movie.

Furious 6
   Wow, Vin Diesel looks like a squirt next to The friggin Rock huh?

Man of Steel
   Reasonably good retelling of the super man story.

Mud
   Busy movie, but good. At least its very original plot.  A little too feel-good-coming-of-age.

Cosmopolis
   I started this movie several times, but it drones on with such lifeless drivel, it's near impossible to stick with it. Ugh, Cronenberg, I should have known. Closer to punishment than entertainment.
