I remember that as an entertaining movie.

My Fair Lady (1964)- Wow, what a movie if you like Audry Hepburn, Rex Harrison, Stanley Holloway, and musicals.

Watched "The Maltese Falcon" on TCM on Saturday by accident. Still fun to watch even though I can mouth some of the words...

skepticidis · Feb 4, 2013, 01:24 PM

Gentlemen Broncos is now one of my top three favorite movies.

That is a great movie - dark, elegant, timeless, with a terrific cast playing nicely ambivalent characters set in a sufficiently complex and morally nuanced story. And what wonderful acting and cinematography........

Tonight it's one of my all time favorite movies, "What About Bob?" I've watched it so many times that I could almost recite the whole thing from memory, yet I still keel over laughing at it every time!

I won't rave much about Django for the moment, since I did exactly that after watching Inglorious Basterds and am nowadays hardly tempted to watch it again. But boy, it was an epic ride!

Quite different, brilliant nonetheless - yet very uncomfortable to watch - The Silence by Bergmann.

saporiti · Feb 5, 2013, 08:02 PM

Seven Psichopaths.

Just... great. Brilliant. Very good performance from the 3 main characters, funny different... I don't know. I just know I can't explain what the movie was about, it's hard to explain the hole plot!

Really advise to see!

A friend of mine saw it and said pretty much the same as you did. You think it's a must see on the big picture?

Personally I reserve the big picture for extravaganzas or when my wife twists my arm. This I will rent.

And if you haven't seen it, run, do not walk, and get "There Will Be Blood". Extremely disturbing movie! He is truly unbelievable in that film. Frighteningly intense and he creates a character with brilliance. It is definitely not a feel good movie...but I think one of the most brilliant films I've seen.

First off thanks a lot for the tip, you really did understate just how good he was in "There will be blood".
It is often said that Hollywood is only good for special effects movies now days, well this proves them wrong. It truly does rank among the great films.

On another note I saw Lore at the Rotterdam Film Festival.

Director Cate Shortland, and a cast of relative unknowns. Saskia Rosendahl Kai Malina, Nele Trebs, Ursina Lardi, Hans-Jochen Wagner, Mika, Seidel André Frid. Told a very moving story about coming of age, in one of the most turbulent periods of European history.

costabunny · Feb 7, 2013, 09:31 AM

right now watching The Waterboy - sillyness and not as good as Happy Gilmore but still entertaining

Dweez · Feb 7, 2013, 09:31 AM

The wife and I just watched Genetic Roulette.

I think if you don't like Family Guy, you won't like Ted. Not your average kind of funny. I like both

Next on my To Watchlist is Argo.

Daniel Day Lewis is scary good in that film...no doubt. The whole film, all it's aspects, is scary good. Definitely one of the most disturbing and intense films I've ever seen.

I will watch for "Lore" and watch it when it comes up on one of my Premium movie stations (yes, I'm still cabled).

That sounds absolutely fascinating; I'll definitely keep an eye out for it and thanks for drawing my attention to it.

Not sure about your area but it's not showing at many cinemas around me so I watched it online (but I will get a legit copy when it's released). It should be fine to just rent it, but certainly see it in some shape or form, you won't regret it

Huntn · Feb 7, 2013, 11:21 PM

Fried Green Tomatoes (1991) love this movie about the early 20th Century U.S. South, including the currents of racism, although this was not the primary focus. As a rule I love movies about the South including The Long Hot Summer, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Last Picture Show, The Chase, Gone with the Wind, and The Flim Flam Man.

pimentoLoaf · Feb 8, 2013, 02:15 AM

The 2 Sherlock Holmes flicks on BluRay.

Again.

I think this makes it nearly a dozen times since I got the discs last year sometime. Hoping they make another sequel with the same director.

costabunny · Feb 8, 2013, 02:24 AM

this morning I am enjoying a classic Bruce Campbell masterpiece 'Army of Darkness'.

Gotta love the Evil Dead films. Wholesome entertainment
