invisible airwave Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 A De Niro triple bill, I need to catch up on latter day De Niro flicks. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b0/New_Year%27s_Eve_Poster.jpg This was tedious, I was praying for the end. What the hell was De Niro doing in a film like this? A total waste. And I had to put with Sarah Jessica Parker and Bon Jovi meets Glee! http://i.imgur.com/q7NhH.jpg This was ok, but there was no real chemistry between Hawke and Paltrow. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/97/The_Score_film.jpg This was good but the ending seemed truncated. I expected another final act, the story seemed unfinished, it was like the end of a TV episode that continues next week. Still all the rest of the film was enjoyable so it's only a small complaint.. The Score was mediocre but Marlon's scene stealing performance is a nice swan song to his legendary and iconic resume. Premium Rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f8/Poster_of_the_movie_Waxwork_II.jpg Pretty weak sequel. I watched this mainly because Bruce Campbell and David Carradine were in it, but unfortunately they just did brief cameos. :zzz: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked Alice though... What about you?The Golden Compass was kind of a set-up for a couple of sequels that never got made. It was supposed to be a series of films, but the story-line was unpopular with the catholic church and the ensuing backlash nixed the sequels for good. I thought it had some interesting ideas but the story seems unbalanced and never really gets going and leaves too many issues that were introduced at the beginning of the film untouched. Alice was pretty good, Hugo was the best of these films though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible airwave Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 AIW 2010 is the worst adaptation of the millenium...ever. Don't understand how anyone other than Twilight watching teenyboppers can prefer that over the original. I cringe everytime I see someone at my college carrying an AIW purse or something like that. Don't get me started on that Futterwacken dance, either. Hugo's great, though. One of the rare times I saw a movie in 3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't bad as a Tim Burton film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Crispin Glover was a bright spot, I'll give it that much. He stole that movie.i wasn't sure it was him at first, I thought it was but I wasn't sure until the end credits. What's with this new trend of not showing any credits till the end of the film these days? Kind of annoys me when I don't know who is in a film before i watch it.

OGr8imL84AD8inF8sBlackSedan Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 The last Batman movie whatever it was called. It was OK but I expected a little more Batman in a Batman movie and I wasn't a fan of Bane...he sounded like Yukon Cornelius or someone from one of those old Rankin Bass holiday specials talking into a tin can. It was kinda rediculous too...way more so than the other Batman movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I like Sleepy Hollow but haven't seen Season Of The Witch yet. Is it any good?It's ok, but a bit more of a crusader sword fighting film rather than a Witchfinder General film, which is what I was expecting. You've got the cheesiness of Nick Cage offset by the coolness of Ron Perlman, so that's ok. The setting is really cool, they filmed it in the Austrian alps...
