Memories of Murder

I liked it. Cops in Korea trying to find a serial killer.

Crime/thriller/drama and a little humor thrown in.

However a warning. It is a subtitled film and the ending does not tie everything up in a little bow. So if you don't like subtitles and you don't like movies that leave things open, you will not like this one.

Like it better for the sound track, the ozzy and simmons cameos and RagMan Skippy.

Total 80's cheese rocks.

So no one has seen Taken 2?

I've wanted to see it, but haven't found the time.
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

Might see it tomorrow. Last Saturday I debated between this and Looper. I chose Looper just so I wouldn't have to wait another 20 minutes for Taken 2 to start.

Looper, by the way: 5/10. Interesting to a point, but the whole Rainmaker angle was too much of a black hole for 99% of the film and only left to interpretation at the very end. And the very end left me quite unimpressed and flat. The acting was not very good. The multiple re-loops were never really explained and kind of out of the blue, and the general flow of the film just wasn't very good, to me. My 5 might actually be a little on the generous side.

Ah thanks!

I missed those posts.

I've heard some negative things about it, so I was debating whether to go see it or not.

Argo - 9.5 /10

Easily the best Affleck movie yet. Simply fantastic.

Enemy at the Gates - 8/10

Interesting film about a Russian and German sniper during the Battle of Stalingrad. Some good performances by Ed Harris and Joseph Fiennes. Shame about Jude Law's cockney accent.

Seven Psychopaths. 9/10


Best movie I have seen in a while. Christopher Walken, Colin Farrell, and Sam Rockwell are all pretty funny in this movie. Woody harrelson is good too. The humor is dark, which is totally my cup of tea. Great writing. Awesome movie.

Catch Me if You Can - rewatched it for the first time in a while. 7/10. Good storyline (true story), great acting but slow in parts.

There is no formula for success except an unconditional acceptance of life and what it brings.

Love this movie. Bought it years ago and have watched it many times.

The Philadelphia Experiment 4.5 / 5 (1984)

I watched this moving back in the late 80s and loved it. I saw it on Netflix and figured I would watch it again. I expected it to be cheesy since it was made in the 80s and every time I watch some SciFi movie from back then that wasn't a mega hit, it comes off as cheesy.

I can happily say that wasn't the case. (some of the effects where, but that is to be expected) The movie itself was still a great movie. If you haven't seen it before, I recommend it. Good stuff.
Formerly the notorious nyc!

I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.

G.I. Jane - 8/10

As unrealistic as certain parts of the movie are it was still very enjoyable. I love a good Navy Seal story. Plus, Demi Moore will always be fun to look at.
