I watched a good movie last noght--one I had never heard of but found on Netflix when prowling there. It's called "The Boondock Saints" from 1999. Starred Willem DaFoe (almost as weird as Chris Walken). It was GREAT! lots of action that was well done and unusual--a very pleasnat surprise. If you are Irish--you MUST see this. Set in Boston, a pretty Irish town.
saw 2 kicked ass, almost as good as the first. Doom was lame but the first person shooter parts of it were sweet. I watched the rock when he first started wrestling, so all of his movies have me expecting him to throw the people's eyebrow and stuff so it's hard to fairly judge them. the rock likes pie, w00T!
cheers guys i now have some movies to look up on imdb.com. as to Christopher Walken, one of my heroes
Regarding Christopher Walken...I have one caveat--he seems to have been involved tangentally to the overboard drowning of the TRUE LOVE of my life...the LOVELY and Beautiful Miss Natalie Wood. A movie in which she was at her very BEST is one you never ever see--it's called "Penelope" where she plays a rich banker's wife--when he doesn't have time for her...she starts robbing the banks he owns. Natalie--at her very best...I'll see her again in heaven!
@alkohol - copy/pasted your reply to me from that other thread - - still haven't watched Project A, parts 1 and 2 yet. i'll have to look out for New Police Story. i'd overlooked that one due to Hong Kong films having 8 different names each, very confusing. i got the first original Police Story films (i think!)
Tomorrow, based on recommendations from this site, Incoming are--1-Batman Returns, --2-Saw, --3-Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. A question for all who have seen "War of the Worlds (2005)"--do you think the effects and other eye candy make it worth buying? Movies like "The Day After Tomorrow" I bough mainly for the special effects.
watched K19 The Widowmaker, very good. i spent the first bit of the film concentrating on Harrison Ford/Liam Neeson's/virtually every other actor's slightly less than consistent Russian accents but quickly ignored that and concentrated on film, very good. not quite good enough to beat one of my alltime faves - The Hunt for Red October, but very well worth watching
Scary Movie 3 is great although it is rather sort only 1hour if i remember, there was a bit right at the end they cut out were Michal Jackson runs over the kid that was very very funny and they never put it in Into The Sun is a good movie with big Steven Segal in it
Last night i watched "supernova" the start was a bit slow then it got pretty good. In the end it was a pretty good movie The plot is below Has a scientist sold his environmental secrets and is the Earth headed for an apocalypse as a result? Nobel Prize-winning scientist Dr Austin Shepard disappears from his space propulsion lab as the world begins to question the bizarre sun-storm activities occurring around the globe. Has he sold his classified, top-secret solar probe discoveries explaining the global phenomena and gone into hiding? The president of the United States tries to quell the worldwide panic, working from an underground bunker where he's orchestrating a Noah's Ark for the new millennium. Meanwhile, life on the streets is chaotic and hysterical as a team of survivors races against time to stop the predicted apocalypse. Cast: Luke Perry, Tia Carrere, Peter Fonda, Clemency Burton-Hill, Emma Samms, Jessica Brooks, Eliza Bennett, Marcus Jean Pirae, Phil Lenkowsky, Ronald Pickup, Lance Henriksen, Patrick Walton
The last movie i saw that is worth mentioning is [bold]City of God[/bold] If anyone is into Brazil and how there livleyhoods goo and how early they get into the drug trade, this movies is worth a look.
watched Spartan (Val Kilmer). very good except it was full of nonstop spy-talk buzzwords, not all were obvious. excellent film though, i just ignored the coded spy-talk if i didn't get it, didn't hurt the telling of the story none
