Sunday: No country for old men. Slept half way into the movie. Could not understand. Boring.
Monday: Spiderwick chronicles. Good. Worth the money spent.
Tuesday: CJ7. Not bad. I'd recommend this.
Today: Charlie Wilsons War. Will update this thread tomorrow on how good it is.

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT- A surprisingly great film. The topic was great and execution was perfect. High on entertainment and fun factor . 9/10

Also check out the techno track by The Chemical brothers.

WTF. I edited my previous post with the above lines!!! m going crazy. Will write couple of lines :-

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT- Also go thro the movie's 'alternate ending'.

Forgetting Sarah Marshal - Net was down for 3 days so had to watch it. But turned out to be not so bad. Had quite a few funny characters. Also has few unnecesarry gross scenes for those who really bother.

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly- Good movie but my expectations were way too high. Gives you a scare if you imagine youself in the so called 'locked-in syndrome'. I still feel 'The Sea Inside' was a better bet.

the OST is freaking awesome.

Sunday: No country for old men.

And it was the the fastest movie of all the Nominees!!!
Personally I liked it a lot!!!

 

[Pathik]

the OST is freaking awesome.

Yep. And the movie even more.

^^nah,the chick kinda is pretty average,and there isn't much in the movie really.There are loads of movies based on this same theme,you know,even 'step up 2 streets' is kinda the same with dancing replacing fighting.

But the OSt includes some darn good tracks including 'orange marmalade','someday' by flipsyde,'teenagers',anthem for the underdog,to be loved,etc etc.Some of the songs are completely out of context in the movie,lolz,but still one of the better compilation in recent times.

check it out dawgs!


@pathik:and sup with staying in offline mode naab?

 

[Pathik]

Dude, that chick is hottt. I have 4 movies of her. Will see the other 2 tomo. Do check out All the boys love Mandy Lane. Typical Slasher movie.

 

[a_medico]

Mandy Lane was ok. Gripping movie with bgrade actors. Its watch and delete type of movie(Disposable).

Has anybody seen Mr. Brooks?

 

[Faun]

just watched Three... Extremes - terrifying and shivering, brainfckued. I need a break.

 

[Hitboxx]

Dumplings anyone?

I didn't find it that puking to be honest.

 

[Faun]

^^yeah its one of the short stories in Three... Extremes

I usually don't feel puking in any gore movie now. Box was the best, then Cut and then Dumplings (may be story left me with wanting for moar) among the three short stories. I need to watch full version of Dumplings.
One of the most surreal and shocking image was this from Box:

Only movie that left me a little uneasy was Audition

Man! I loved that movie. i mean the villian was damn great; well actually who was villian and who was not; couldnt judge; but then again the guy who killed people with compressed air; that was awesome; and the hotel encounter... I mean these small scenes also make up for a lot..

Might be too much wine I just fell asleep and returned the DVD the next day. I can't watch it anymore now.

Anyways, I watched (1) Charlie Wilson's War yesterday. Tom Hanks - as usual was good, I'd say. Nice storyline - mix of war and politics. Kinda nice movie for a change. 7/10.

(2) The Recruit. Yes. 2 movies in a day
Kinda boring I'd say. Does not qualify to be a great movie, considering Pachino. I'd have expected something good out of this movie. It gets very predictable as the film progresses. 5/10.
