| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Last night I watched Die Hard 4.0, which was a bit of a guilty pleasure. I figured it would suck if only due to the track record of Len Wiseman, but it had all the things that made the earlier films fun, just with more ridiculous explosions... Before that it was The Fountain, which I thoght was visually very accomplished but lacked a little focus - which is a shame, because it had the potential to be great. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? I'm in the house by myself tonight. So I decide to watch a horror film, of course. I'm watching a Korean film at the moment, Doll Master. I'm not a fan of dolls at the best of times, so this is promisingly creepy. Especially when the crazy house that they are in have dolls everywhere, even half hanging out of the ceiling and holding light bulbs to act as strange lights. The dolls! They keep moving! Argh! |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Oddly enough I just rented Troy, but I haven't watched it yet. The last movie I saw in theaters was Sweeney Todd, which I absolutely loved. But the actual last movie I watched was The Libertine. Basically b/c Johnny Depp, and John Malkovich were in it, but I wasn't altogether impressed, though it was okay. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Control. A somewhat depressing biopic about a brilliant young man and how much of a mess he was. Anton Corbijn undoubtedly has a great eye, but the telling was a bit dispassionate. Curtis was a serious young man, but I think somehow Michael Winterbottom's 24 Hour Party People did him more justice, even though he was a minor character. The music was great ofcourse. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? No Country for Old Men. While the film had some really good bits, I found the Tommy Lee Jones thread very mediocre and soporific and it brings down the overall impact of the film a great deal for me. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? An old BBC version of George MacDonald's The Light Princess. Wow. Just Wow. Was it awful! They'd improvised a lot of stuff into the story to "Disney-ify" it, and ran roughshod over MacDonald's much more clever and punchy story. The kind of awful usually reserved for the bottom of Hollywood's rather large barrel. Oy... |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Great night of TV, except the ads. Galaxy Quest, which I absolutely love, followed by Hitch Hikers, which on my third viewing, despite the late hour, I am really starting to appreciate, despite the over sentimentality. Maybe, at the end of the day, it was not a stand out movie in its own right, but it was a homage to one of the greatest pop culture icons of the latter half of the last century. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? La Haine - A day in the life of 3 french teenagers following a riot on their estate in which a friend of theirs was put in hospital by the police. All the way through you can see its going to end badly but the ending still comes as a shock. Good, powerful film though the 3 main characters are so idiotic half the time its hard to have any sympathy for them. |

| Re: What was the last movie you saw? Saw Red Dragon, the 3rd Hannibal Lecter movie. This one had a huge starcast and a potentially interesting story but was very mediocre to sucky all the way, thanks to a poor screenplay and horrible direction. |
