I was hoping to start a new movie thread as the other one seems to have gotten off topic and fallen pages back.
I hope to set some rules for this one.
Talk about movies only, likes or dislikes everyone has their own opinion.
If we dont know what movie your talking about, lol, give an imdb link
http://imdb.com
No porn please :)
classics, Old movies, new movies, all good.

Ok ill start it off...

Recently saw Inside Man in theaters, and really enjoyed it. Good acting, crisp plot, nice camera work and good ending. Curious what other people thought about it ;)

I watched The abominable Dr. Phibes again yesterday, classic Vincent Price flick.
Take one mad Concert musician looking for revenge on behalf of his departed wife, add nine bumbling doctors, some old testament atrocities, then stirr untill done, and lo and behold, one instant classic :)

I recently wathched "Get rich or die trying" at the movies and i loved it.I'm not a huge fan of rap but the movie really shows what it's like to live in the ghetto and to grow up over there and also shows the violence that there is in ghettos.

the movie is the story of 50 cent.

I know this is an old movie but notting hill is excellent.It's the story of a man who works in a library(hugh grant)and one day his whole life is changed when the movie star anna scott(julia roberts)walks into his shop.
A great love story.

Notting Hill is definitely good. Very funny in some parts. I enjoy most movies with British actors, I find them humorous. Recently saw (and been addicted to ever since) Pride and Predjudice, classic love story; I do not recommend for the guys though, they'll find it boring.

Memoirs of a Geisha is sad, but it is very good. I didn't know anything about geisha, but now I feel lucky that I can love freely.

Someone said they like British actors and I agree. It seems that the ability to act is their greatest concern...looking handsome or beautiful is a nice second. Now (as opposed to the "golden age", american actors and actresses look beautiful or handsome but are dumber than dirt and can't act to save their lives.

Just saw Silent Hill...creepy movie, doesnt really make too much sense. Overall decent though.

Brit made movies tend to just get on with it, without all the bull. Layer Cake, Lock Stock, Snatch, Trainspotters are all films that just have to be seen, dark humour is a trait we are famous for. Complete with no underlying love story, smart arsed 7yr old child or moody teenager to contend with.
I love the fact that Brits make excellent baddies in American films.

Recently saw Mission Impossible 3. It had alot of action in it but the story was abit shallow. Softer Cruise, but loved the Actress Michelle Monaghan. I also saw Grandma's boy and The Ringer, there both worth a look.

Pirates 2

WOW!!!!!

I'm not going to give you the review, but heck if you haven't seen this one yet or are not planning to, then you must be dead already. As sequals go....this is BRILLIANT!!!

Take out your brain,Buy the biggest bucket of popcorn/coke and sit back for 2 1/2 hours of fantastic entertainment...then go home and wait for Pirates 3 !!!

You can find clips of this move ( http://imdb.com/title/tt0274518/ ) on Youtube.com

It sucks.

Badly.

When evolution selects its agents, it does so at a cost, makes demands in exchange for singularity, and you may be asked to do something against your very nature. This force, evolution, is not sentimental. Like the Earth itself, it knows only the hard facts of life's struggle with death. All you can do is hope and trust that when you have served its needs faithfully, there may still remain some glimmer of the life you once knew.
