Oh! It's really fun - I hope you enjoy it

Saw 'The Bourne Identity' and 'The Road To Perdition'.

I found Bourne to be rather dissapointing, but then I was under the naive impression that it was based on the book by the same title. Foolish, I know.
The music and the cinematography is pretty good, but I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone who has read and enjoyed the book. Otherwise good flick.

'The Road To Perdition' was fantastic. The score was perfect for the film and accentuated rather than detracted. Hanks was superb. On the downside, it was a tad predictable but not too much.

Next flick on my to see list is 'Reign Of Fire' (overheard someone misreading it as 'Raisin of Fire', husband corrected her and told her it was 'Reason of Fire'. Just found it rather amusing)

Yesterday afternoon it was 'Batman & Robin' for me & it's very good

tokyogirl · 19th July 2002, 02:47 PM

you didn't like the bourne identity sandman? i loved it! i thought matt damon was excellent, the music, the fight scenes, the script, the cinematography. i highly enjoyed it.

just saw 'joe vs. the volcano' again. i LOVE that movie!

Sinistra · 19th July 2002, 02:57 PM

The time Machine.... id the last one I remember seeing but I KNOW I've seen one since, I just cant remember what is was called or about

Falcon Horus · 19th July 2002, 10:21 PM

Hello guys, today I saw Scooby-doo instead of Ice Age (it was in Dutch ... grrr!!!) and Cool Runnings. They were both hilarious. Tears were rolling down my face just because I was laughing with Mystery Inc. and Sanka & C°.

Well I really liked the book (read it a half a dozen times) and, though I didn't do it on purpose, I was preoccpied with my expectations. I think it's my own fault that I didn't enjoy it. It was a good movie, it just wasn't anything like I was expecting and that kind of shadowed it for me. My sister loved it, though.

Tabitha · 20th July 2002, 09:09 AM

I hate it when that happens - no matter how good an adaptation is, they can never match the detail and perspective included in the book. And if the film-makers decide to alter something or leave apparently vital plotlines out of the story altogether, it can really ruin the film. On the other hand I have never been disappointed if I read the book after watching the movie.

I watched Road to Perdition this evening at the cineman - it was amazingly good, ever scene was very beautiful and the acting was (mostly) understated and very effective. Catch it if you can.

Bayleaf48 · 20th July 2002, 05:20 PM

'102 Dalmations' for me this afternoon

angelle myst · 21st July 2002, 01:38 AM

Just caught a couple minutes of Mars Attacks but Angel was on so I had to watch that

Shaun · 21st July 2002, 04:01 AM

Yesterday I watched Independence day... again

. I also watched Dr Strangelove for the first time. A very good and funny movie, I'll definetly be watching it again.

Tabitha · 21st July 2002, 04:47 AM

Dr. Strangelove is excellent! It really freaked me out when I was little - especially with "We'll meet again" playing over the climax.
