What was the last movie you saw?

[Quokka]

Bloodsport not a lot of it, just enough to realise that, yes this was as bad as the rest of the Van Damne movies, I was just younger back then

Saw Catch 22 and Farenheit 451 last weekend.
Catch 22 was OK though I wouldnt recommend it especially if you havent read the book.
Its much inferior to the book but Farenheit 451 was slightly better. Its not particularly true to the book from what I remember but I liked the sixties look of it and thought Oskar Werner was a watchable if strange choice for the lead. Unfortunately I found the book people at the end of the film almost as mad as the firemen.

Saw Creature from the Black Lagoon at lunchtime. (I think that was the title. Long day today.)

Watched NEXT with nicholas cage last night.

It was OK I guess.

Watched Spider-man 3 on Wednesday.......totally awsome

[Stenevor]

Just seen Slaughterhouse5. Pretty average really, bits from the book I was expecting to happen were missing, I was looking forward to seeing Kilgore Trout too. Ive been watching a lot of book adaptations recently and havent been blown away by any of them. Got Mother Night to watch next when I can find time.

I saw Spiderman 3 on Sunday night. I enjoyed it, although I was doubled over with laughter when Peter turned Emo (the fringe, the fringe!) and started dancing. Oh, dear...
But overall, 'twas quite good. Could've had more fighting and more of Venom.

I found the whole dancing thing rather cringeworthy, but my wife was laughing.

The Curse Of The Mummy's Tomb (1964) the second of Hammer's mummy movies. Pretty hokey stuff, even by the somewhat elastic standards a horror fan often has to employ while assessing derivative B-movies. It isn't in the same league as Hammer's previous contribution to the subgenre, The Mummy (1959), even allowing for the fact that the latter had the advantage of featuring Hammer's finest stars, Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, confirming Hammer's tendancy towards diminishing returns when mining the same material again. It's neither one of their great classics or a campily entertaining derivative (like Dracula AD 1972) but simply a very workmanlike iteration of the various stock elements of the mummy story, found in everything from Conan Doyle's The Ring Of Thoth to that Little Archie comic where Mr. Lodge brings an exhibition of Egyptian artifacts to Riverdale Museum. Weak acting, zilch characterisation continuity glitches, and a few plot absurdities (such as the immortal who craves death after 3000 years of existence nevertheless insisting that his girlfriend be killed first, just because the movie is more dramatic that way) add to the mess. There's some comedic business with Cockney extras which sadly goes nowhere. All in all a very poor film, the fact that I could sit through it without complaining (although laughing rather than shuddering in any sort of real fear) too much is either a tribute to the essential watchability of Hammer's movies, or to my dedication to cine horror.

Oh yes, I was cringing and laughing at the same time. Dear me.

Spiderman 3

Was entertaining in a "not as good as the previous one" kind of way.

They tried to shove too many bad guys and plot points into one movie. The film lacked pace in the middle as all the action bookended the "emo - Sat Night Fever" section.

Spiffy SFX though and the Goblin Fight at the start was the highlight of the film.

I watched Bridge to Terabithea, and I thought it was much better than I was expecting. Never heard of the book, and now I really want to read it. Simple, effective and charming. Not so sure it's all that kid friendly though, towards the end.

[Sathai]

Yesterday I watched The Science of Sleep. Thought it was ok.

[Ice fyre]

Just finished watching Ben Hur, good film even for it's age.

[HBP]

Just Watched Next................. a major twist at the end.

Anyway it was good......I got a glimse of the future.
