softfilter Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 QUOTE (lerxt1990 @ Jan 22 2012, 09:15 PM) Midnight in Paris. Great film. I approach any new Woody Allen film like I do any upcoming new Rush album. Wish and long for the days of there creative peak that they will somehow capture the spark once again and make something truly great from start to finish.. But more often then not settle for good enough. Ditto for Allen films, sure the era of classics like Annie Hall, Manhattan are long over. His movies been hit or miss last twenty years but think Woody has been on a upswing last couple of projects, perhaps because he films in Europe now and in particular Spain opens up a whole new world for him, and NYC finally was getting tiresome and uninspired, change was good.

Agree totally. MANY stinkers in the past 10 years. I thought this one was good. Nothing IMO can touch some of the old ones like you mentioned, and Hannah, Crimes & Misdemeanors...

Steevo Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Turistas. Kinda predictable thriller but some squeamish and suspenseful scenes nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lerxt1990 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) The Help. Sure, picking old scabs.. but a reminder of injustices of the past. Very well made film, great acting. http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTM5OTMyMjIxOV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNzU4MjIwNQ@@._V1._SY317_.jpg Edited January 29, 2012 by lerxt1990 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisible airwave Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Red State Kind of a let down for me and worst Silent Bob film thus far. Yes, worse than Cop Out which is a guilty pleasure truth be told. John Goodman is awesome in this though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghostworks Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Moneyball baseball statisticians will love this - it's not a 'sports movie' per se you need at least a moderate knowledge (and love) of how the game is played mechanically and scientifically to get the most bang for buck here I think it'd be a little too dry and 'boring' for anyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
