Yeah Journey to the Center of the Earth was a great book, but the movie does not seem to be following on the lines of the book - then I will hate it no matter how well it is done. Till I read the description, I really wanted to watch that film. Journey to the center of the earth without Hans or that Arne Saknussum guy will be empty. Is there a big fightout between three gigantic sea monsters? How well is the storm shown?

@t159 I am adding the movies you recommended to my list. Will post how it goes.

Watch Barton Fink.

Untraceable - 8/10

Nice movie. About how inhuman the Youtube generation is becoming.

Sort of like "The Condemned"

What kind of people like watching suicides? Raises some serious questions about how much 'daily media' desensitizes ordinary folks. Yeah, people logging in to watch guys killed was, well, inhuman.

Oh man I want expecting this from you, but I guess I remember u saying u watch just for the entertainment factor...... in that case I still might give 6/10 but overall the movie sucked.... 4/10 for me.....

It statred of well but soon after that tram ride turn out to be a cheap , cheezy, too predictable adventure ride......ok for a 5 year old kid, heck even kids today enjoy movies like Narnia more than these......
I don't know how but it just a decent enough movie or may be that afternoon I was in a more forgiving mood. :D

@sam9s,
Yes, Office Space is really good! Don't forget to put the new cover sheets for TPS reports ;) By the way, watch Idiocracy by Mike Judge (director of Office Space).

Yeah Office Space is a great film.

Also check out clerks. 8/10. Black and white movie, but hilarious.

wish someone would make a journey to the center of the earth movie that is true to the book.

Yes, Journey to the center of the Earth book is awesome... None of the movies are true to the book... Also check out The Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle, superb novel...

Agree with Office Space and Clerks.

Another comedy recommended - The Big Lebowski

Next in line is 'Burn after reading' by the same director.

^ The Big Lebowski is one of those films that fifty years from now will have the same kind of aura as 2001.

Liked Pitch Black and Riddick. Not brilliant, but well done, and a decent enough watch.

If you liked Clerks, also watch Dogma and Mallrats by the same director.

Clerks I and II were simply awesome for comedy movies. Such funny dialogues and characters, I was laughing hard the whole time. 'Jay and Silent Bob', number of boyfriends and the pickle joke....LOLz. :)
