Rate the last movie you saw

Yeah, the ending didn't do much for me, the part of the whole film retell as other characters. I didn't quite grok it in full

It's kind of funny because I really don't care for the start of the movie or the end.

I like after the ship has sunk and he is on the life boat until right after the tiger walks into the jungle.

I also confess to saying that the movie always makes me yell out (in the kids accent) RICHARD PARKER! at least a few times when I am watching it or the next day at work. lol
 
Ride Along - Thought it would be much funnier. I think I only laughed once.
Wish Ice Cube and Cris Tucker would do another movie together (does not have to be a Fridays one but just something funny).

Finished watching that and was kind of let down. Started watching something I have watched before but had not seen in some time. Was just going to watch a few minutes and go to bed early. Found myself watching the whole thing again.

Life of Pi - Just one of those movies that for whatever reason I like even though it is quite slow for the most part.

Love Life Of Pi. Great visuals, story, directing, acting. Great movie.

Haven's seen Ride Along but I heard they are making a sequel.

ride along was terrible imo
 
I've seen Boyhood, Gone Girl and The Judge in the past couple of weeks. All three are solid movies. I enjoyed and recommend them.
 
I don't generally go out to the movies. So I wait until they ate available on demand.

AND this thread is long so I did not look back and read previous posts.

So maybe I'm late to the party. But I just wanted to rate the new tom cruise movie. Live die repeat.

Awesome movie. A plus. As good as minority report. Creative. And well written.

And cruise does a great performance as always
 
The Book of Life..

I guess it's a good movie for kids, but for adults, I thought it was terrible. And they had the nerve to make it in 3D, too? Waste of technology.

Blah. No rating...

Gone Girl - one word, "crazy" you won't see the ending coming /////// 9-10

The Judge - what a tough movie. Really hits you, a few times. Having aging, sometimes good days, sometimes bad days. This will deliver a couple of gut shots. Great movie. 5 great acting performances at least. ////// 9-10
 
Edge of tomorrow = groundhog day + starship troopers + transformers + 2 minutes of top gear uk.

take out top gear, worthless. 4 of 10

I thought edge of tomorrow, while it's been done before... Simply worked. Nice little twist at the end.
Always had me engaged.

I would almost double that and make it:

Overall movie 7 of 10
Action and drawing you in 8.5 of 10
Cruise was not showboaty Cruise. He was regular joe.
 
The last die hard movie. A good day to die hard.

I know the others were not award winners. However they were good action guy movies.

This one was just a stinker. I only made in in 20-30 minutes before I turned it off.



Yeah, along with it's muted color tones. This thing was grey.
Didn't flow. Son calling dad john. Just annoying after fort 2 times.


But I hear they will make another. It's a cash cow as a franchise.
 
Birdman 8/10

Hollywood invades Broadway, in this well orchestrated visual satirical symphony.
Micheal Keaton get big props..... forget "I'm Batman"..... its now "I'm Birdman".. stedicam op deserves an award....

Saw St. Vincent today. I know Bill Murray is the hot thing these days, but a really touching movie. Not the laugh fest you might expect from the cast, but a really great movie.
 
Rudderless.

If you love indie folk rock out of a tragedy youll love it
 
The Way of the Gun

Early 2000's heist film where everyone is a criminal, and everyone has a past...

**********************SPOILERS********************************************


Just from a football perspective, the movie is a little ridiculous. At the end, if you look at it in terms of what was traded, it was a very good trade. He essentially traded three 2nd round picks for the #1 overall pick. That's an unbelievable trade.

But, of course, it wasn't as simple a trade. In the beginning of the movie, he trades their #7 overall and the next two years' 1st round picks for the #1 overall pick. It's a bad trade but a believable trade considering the QB projected to go #1 was supposed to be of Andrew Luck caliber.

The trade did rub some people the wrong way (like the new head coach who wanted to draft a RB at #7 and wasn't happy about mortgaging the future when the Browns already had a very good QB who was fully healed after missing the last 10 games of the previous season due to injury).

So, after making the trade, he decides to start doing some research on this perfect QB who they'll most likely be picking #1. The only things they can find are an allegation that none of his teammates showed up to his 21st birthday, a story that he was the only played who lied twice about getting a $100 bill at the end of a playbook given to all players (most players lied once about the $100, but no one twice), and a few bad throws the play after taking a nasty sack.

The draft comes and he ends up taking a guy #1 overall who would have easily been there at #7 and who might have even fallen to the 2nd round if a team considering him at #15 overall passed on him. So they essentially traded three consecutive 1st round picks for a guy they could have traded back to get.

That's not the stupidest part of the movie. Now, the beloved, perfect QB prospect is suddenly falling because nobody understands why Cleveland would pass on him (surprising that they're giving so much credit to an organization that just traded three 1st round picks for a guy they could have got if they stayed put). So nobody is picking this QB but there doesn't seem to be any logical reason why not.

Then things get stranger. Costner gets desperate and he trades the Browns' next three years of 2nd round picks to the Jaguars to move up to #6 overall (one spot before the team, the Seahawks, that originally traded them the #1 pick). So now he's traded three consecutive 1st and 2nd round picks and only has a guy who didn't need to trade up for.

Now, he takes this newly acquired #6 pick and calls Seattle, who still wants to take the QB they passed on at #1. He tells them he wants his 1st round picks back. Then he tells them to throw in a punt returner too. Seattle agrees. So, Seattle came into the day with the #1 overall pick and walked away with the #6 pick and lost a punt returner.

So, now Cleveland has their 1st round picks back and is on the clock at their original spot of #7. They take the RB that the head coach really wanted.

In the end, everyone is happy, people are calling Costner a genius, and they get two top 7 picks and a veteran punt returner, and they give up three consecutive 2nd round picks to do so.

Thanks. I had no desire to watch that movie and your synopsis makes me glad I didn't.

Actually, it's more like he traded 3 #2's for the 15th or so pick as that is where the guy he took probably would have went, if he didn't slide further. A bad trade IMO.

Saw this. Did you take the movie to be a hilarious comedy? I did. Especially when he becomes "Birdman". ***! Weird movie.
