Saw All the King's Men yesterday. Just a perfect speeches from Sean Penn doesn't make a good movie. It was decent.

Not all that good really. Shame

Hard Boiled. If you like action movies and have never seen this, go straight to a video store and pick it up. fecking excellent action movie.
saw 21 yesterday on the flight home.
was engaging but reminded me of something else that I couldn't put my finger on.
the lead guy was pretty good and the professor dude were good but the rest were forgettable. suppose part of the allure is the fact that every kid would love to be as brilliant as the main character.
may have enjoyed it more had I been at home and not having to take the earphones off every now and then to tell the kids to quiet down.
that and the crew telling me about the turbulence.

Yes!
The Killer and the Better Tomorrow trilogy is also worth a watch if you like this sort of thing.
All of them have Chow Yun Fat in them, come to think of it.
Don't worry. I've seen those as well.
Swimmers. A bit crap. Tries to be more than it is.
Return of the One Armed Swordsman. Fantastic sequel to the One Armed Swordsman. Some damn good fighting in it. Look forward to seeing the New One Armed Swordsman next.
Just watched Hard Boiled on ole's reccomendation. Quality film. I think it's actually more unrealistic than an Arnie film but very enjoyable. Tony Leung>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Chow Yun Fat however.
John Woo films are never realistic.
Diary of the Dead 3/10
Sorry Romero but you missed the boat with this one. The longer it went on, the more I hated it.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse
THE WORST MOVIE EVER
I can't even think where to begin with this, so I'll leave it at that.

The United States of Leland 2/5
Disappointed.
Crap acting, crap characters, annoyingly flat story...you can't make a good psychological movie with Chris Klein in it... poor version of Donnie Darko or American Beauty.

I've heard the book is squally good. I have it lying with me but I've been stuck with Les Miserables for a while now and don't want to leave it midway.
Anyone seen Night Watch (Russian movie)? Any good?
It's supposed to be decent. The sequel Day Watch is supposed to better. Haven't seen either myself.
Yeah ages ago, I think I thought it was shit. At least I don't remember too much of it bar the fact I hold it in low regard.
Tried watching Daywatch a few days ago but had to return the DVD before I finished it, CBF watching it though.
Says it all really.
Saw it 2 years back. I'd have to see the rest of the trilogy to truly gauge my thoughts on the movie.
I plan to watch it this weekend. Hopefully you won´t let me down.
It really is a very good film. Loved it.
Pineapple Express. Not a bad movie. Perhaps a bit too long. Some very funny parts.
Goya's ghosts. Absolutely fantastic. I think I am going to to watch it again. Javier Bardem is a GOD! (literally 
)
)Saw Amadeus yesterday...film about Mozart. Thought it was crap. Boring and too fecking long.
mehro obviously has no taste.
Rush Hour & Rush Hour II - two of the greatest movies ever.
Michael Clayton
It was okay. Good acting performances all round, but the plot was so-so. I don't think I'd watch it again.
7/10

Kill yourself.
Hmm. Not so sure about that.
They were decent, but nothing special.
They served their purpose.
When I get back from work I feel like watching The 36th Chamber of Shaolin. fecking fantastic kung fu film. Highly recommend it if you like the genre.

Is that the one that influenced Wu Tang Clan?
By greatest I mean entertaining.
Funny every-singe-time. Shame about the third one though, Tucker didn't seem to really be into the role at all.
I loved Bowfinger. I think I'm probably the only one.
Police Story II had some fantastic action in it.
