Shawshank Redemption

10 out of 10

THE GREATEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME
It's my favorite or at least tied with Apocalypse Now.
 
Finally got a chance to see the fighter. I thought it was pretty good but not great. Good acting, good story but the fight scenes were just moronic.

7 / 10

Yeah I was really disappointed in that. Otherwise like you said it is a really good movie.
 
FIGHTER 7/10''''''''''''
I liked it. loved Bale . the characters reminded me of my old neighborhood in PA



HEREAFTER - 5-10

I felt they dragged things out way too long and then when things happened it was empty and very disappointing.

some of the scenes I thought are spectacular
 
The Lincoln Lawyer: 8 / 10

I though it was a very good and entertaining movie. I just finished reading the book not long ago. Obviously the book is better and more complete, but the movie didn't deviate all that much from the book. (in some places it definitely did, but nothing major) Most of the time, it was just streamlining things since the movie would have been much longer otherwise. Something in the end (one scene) was very different, but overall even the ending kept pretty close to the book.

I saw a review here that bashed Ryan Phillippe in the movie, but I must say I don't see why. Granted, he won't up for any acting awards, but he did a good enough job. My biggest issue with his part is the part of Louis Roulet in the book came off as someone a bit older and more mature that the part that Ryan played. I would say someone closer Alec Baldwin in Malice would have fit the bill. If Alec was still that age, (whatever he was in 1993) he would have been the perfect Louis Roulet. Ryan just came off too young for the part, but since he was cast, he did an apt job.

I recommend both the movie and if you are a reader; definitely the book.

The Source Code, 7/10

not a bad film but I hate how it screws with the time space continuum at the end.

The science wasn't realistic throughout the entire film, so the end shouldn't bother you too much.

6.5/10.0

It's the same thing for me every time I watch this movie. If all the gangsters were more believable, it would be a much better film. Even so, Clarence Williams III gives the best performance of all.

If you love 'mother protects her children at all costs' movies, this is one for you.
 
Arthur the original with Dudley Moore 7/10

Sir John Gilgud (sp?) still cracks me up with his one liners :D

I'd say about 6.5/10, so about the same.

I'm frightened by the prospect of watching the new one. I hate Russell Brand and it looks ********. Definitely have to wait for blu-ray on that one.

you mean keeping half a man alive just to send him into another's brain is not realistic?

That, and somehow the other dead person's brain somehow having knowledge of seemingly an infinite amount of information.

I remember seeing this movie in the theaters and a person in the crowd yelled out 'oh just put him out of his misery already' at the scene involving Clarence Williams III towards the end.

The women is this movie are the best parts of the entire movie. The director just said find me some super hot women.

After all these years that movie still cracks me up every time I see it. One of my favorite comedy movies of all time.

I don't hink I can bring myself to see the new version. I'm sure it would just piss me off.

The fight scenes weren't particularly good, but I didn't think they had to be. The fights weren't really the focus of the movie, so they simply minimized them. I thought it was an oustanding movie.

I'm a huge boxing fan and typically hate boxing movies because the fight scenes are so unrealistic. While they made the fight scenes a little too lopsided in The Fighter, it has by far the most realistic boxing scenes I've ever seen in a movie. Granted, that's a pretty low bar to cross.
