Recently Seen 2007

Thank the heavens Claire Danes is slowly being seen again in movies! FANTASTIC film.

WOW, funniest movie in 2007, by far. Had me rolling!

Started off pretty interesting at the beginning but fails to keep my interest.

Just as enjoyable as Night Watch. Can't wait for the final installment, but disappointed that Hollywood is taking it over.

Not my favorite Tykwer film, but still a wonderful watch.

Cleverly written once again. Much better then the second film. Al Pacino showed his talent and didn't overshadow the rest of the cast. After the final scene, I'm betting on a 14.

A perfect continuation of the first film. Cate Blanchett is one of the best in her line of work.

Simpsons + 1hour40mins = Why not!? They plugged in as many characters as they could and the Tom Hanks cameo was pretty funny. If you are a fan of the simpsons, I don't need to tell you to see this film.

Pixar, Disney, whatever it was, the formula worked, even the typical overexaggeration of French accents.

As most would when they are fans of a book, they have high expectations with the film. Another addition to the series that I can't complain about. So much action compared to a few of the past installements and all around touch base well with novel.

Great and refreshing storyline, if you void all scientific facts. For an indy flick, phenomenal cinemotagraphy! The film had really captivating visual effects. I was only disappointed with the twist towards the end of the film; I was hoping they'd stick with the main plot, but I eventually grew use to it by the finale.

Not bad for a sequel in the new National Lampoon days, but makes me miss the classics much more.

Wouldn't recommend The Fountain to many people because it, throughout, is overly artsy and can take away attention from the actual storyline. If you have the patience and time to enjoy this film, rent it, otherwise, put it on the bottom of your Netflix queue. I liked it for its blatant symbolism for man searching for the impossible and his realization that... well, nevermind, if you read this far, watch it yourself.

Loved it. Good ole cheesy 80s cartoon has new visage thanks to CGI. Everything fit the formula in this movie.

Great laughs, great acting, not a lot of sappy moments that are usually in romantic comedies. Worth the 7 bucks at the theatre.

Surprisingly funny, with a lot of cracks at American pop culture. Quaid and Defoe are great mocking the current government situation.

A fun watch, one I'd definitely see again.

Stars only awarded for the artistry and set work for the film, other then that, nothing to praise about. My least favorite Zhang movie so far.

So long, so long. Parts of the movie I was confused where the story was going and some parts I didn't understand the relevancy. Worth the watch if you have 3 hours and the patience.

Seeing City of Lost Children shows how Jeunet has completely mastered his style as a director/artist, telling stories through captivating scenery and characters, just as in Amelie and Delicatessen.

I didn't think this movie would be as good as it was. Really a fantastic story of a man trying to tie up his life and family that he was distant with for too long.

Brillant, obvious why they made a movie from the highly successful play. Goes to show the audience how even the most unsuspecting person can play a big role in another's life.

I think this had to be a Sci-Fi channel production the way it looked. The phrase, the book is always better, is true in this case.

Better then Hostel, like a half a star better...........

Awful... has three stories going at once, all leading nowhere.

Bored on a Sunday afternoon and seen everything on the shelves at Blockbuster??? Then by all means, rent it.

Wow, potheads unite, this is your movie. Kidding, genius display of music through story, even though I'm not a huge fan of the musical genre.

Honestly, the French should stick to dramas or comedies. This movie seemed like it was trying too hard to be a Hollywood action flick, but still not bad enough for me to ask for my 2 hours back.

A British-style version of Kill Bill, without the martial arts, but revenge. Give this movie a try!

I like how the character tries to put his family first while ignoring the flaws of mother and misfortunes of his father. Would like to see a sequel showing how messed up this kid is at the age of 20, but I won't hold my breathe for it's release.

Funny, but doesn't touch Madagasgar!

With the success of Garden State, I was really looking forward to seeing Braff's new film. A cliche look at young adults being welcomed to the world of responsiblility and honesty. Though not as buzz-worthy, still worth the watch.

Had some funny moments, but pretty much a snooze.

Quite a refreshing and unique story that keeps you into the film. Ferrell and Thompson pull off nervous wrecks very well and keep the dry humor coming.

I hate characters that just Have to follow a story, or figure out the truth, when it doesn't seem like that big of a deal. Its annoying, which is what happens here, but both actors do a wonderful job. The script was just not right for them.

This movie had an interesting and unique storyline that only worked in the previews. While Jim Carrey always does a crediable job, it doesn't save this film of its boredom. Pretty much the first 20 minutes of the film are continuely stretched for the entire movie, drawing many yawns.

The twist was very original along with the storyline. Refreshing to watch.

I love the series, I loved the film.

Gondry was a perfect choice to direct this movie. His own mind seems to process just as Stephane's, the title character. A fun and whimsical journey through the unconscious.

If you can sit through the poor acting in the beginning of the movie, you'll enjoy the flow of tension throughout the second half. Pretty insane when you watch the dvd's special features.

With the political mess in the media today, a good light-hearted film helps to only put aside the true-life headache for a few hours .

Hadn't seen this movie in almost a decade so I rerented it because I remember it being pretty intense. And apparently, I hadn't forgotten anything. I recommend this movie solely based on my favorite line; spoken by the Virgin Mary, played by the one and only Sinead O'Conner, "Ah, Francie, for fuck sake."

Congrats, Scorsese, on the Oscar.

Reminds me of American Beautry meets Garden State, but bringing so much of its own to the table. Reading the synopsis again makes me laugh just thinking about how many directions this movie went. Annette Bening is fantastic and somewhat scary in her bipolar role.

You win some, and you lose some... this is definitely not a winner.

A brilliantly refreshing dry comedy that I haven't seen come from American soil in what seems ages.

Clean and honest movie that is just unfortunately boring.

Just bad. Not going to waste webspace explaining.

If you know the Yamakazi groups or if you can remember those shoe advertisements (addidas or nike) a few years back where people were jumping down the alleyway of buildings and over rooftops, this seems like the same guys in those ads . Just a couple pretty cool action sequences make this movie watchable. Since Luc Besson puts his name on this, I guess got my hopes up a little more. It is funny seeing how much Taxi star, Samy Naceri's, brother Bibi acts and looks so much like his sibling.

Can't say too much about this one since I had drank a few before watching. Through I paid attention for the most part of it, I will say the ending was cut short. Besides that, Mark Walhberg has come a long way since his rapping days and gets better as an actor in each movie I see him.

If you go in wanting to see some action and shootouts. you'll be overly satisfied. Story runs a bit fast at the beginning and end, so be sure to pay attention with the names. The twist was a little disappointing as well as pretty unrealistic. But, in all, it was a theatre ticket purchase well spent.

Good to see Kevin Costner coming back to the big screen. Simply told story line that makes for a decent film.

Continues the bloodshed that the series is well known for. This installment recaps more of what happened in the prior films while bringing in just a few new faces to the story which slows the pace down. All-in-all, less 'jumping out of your seat' surprises but far more gore and spine twitching scenes.

An over stretched plot and mindnumbing script overshadow an above par perfomance from the two actors. A little less random pop culture references would've helped this movie out as well.

Wonderful cinematography with a simple yet fantastic storyline. while gibson takes away a lot of dialogue, most likely to suit americans dislike for subtitles, the actors speak through palpable emotions to tell a wonderful tale of love, determination, and destiny.
