I watched Black Swan last night. I don't know what to say about it, other than it was psycho. Natalie Portman did a superb job though, definately earned her Oscar.

Insomnia It's been quite a while since I've seen this one so watching it again last night (when I couldn't sleep) reminded me that I quite like this film

Watched Paul earlier, a surprisingly well made and fun film with lots of SF movie references!

Now watching Cahill, United States Marshall a 70s John Wayne western.

I saw "Green Lantern" today. I highly recommend it if you are a Green Lantern fan. It definitely lives up to all the hype. I was worried that Ryan Reynolds would be a goofy Green Lantern but he was actually great in the part.

Thanks for the review Deadman, I wasn't sure if I should spend money to see it in the theater. I've noticed with the recent DC comic movies that they stopped making campy films, they probably paid close attention to the Marvel movies. They could see the good drama and grittiness which kept them from making another film like Batman and Robin, I'm glad. Even George Clooney commented about his own performance in B&A, he said:

"I killed Batman."

Plus George thought that was the last Batman movie ever to be made.

Romance and Cigarettes: John Torturro tries his hands at directing with this rather odd comedy/musical about Brooklynites and extra marital affairs. Quirky, original and quite fun, with a great cast! 4/5

Re: What was the last movie you saw?

The Day the Earth Stood Still was on last night (The remake, not the original.) I hadn't seen this before, but read a lot of negative comments on it so i was quite surprised that i enjoyed it. It wasn't anywhere near as good as the original and Gort should've been used more but it wasn't a bad film at all.

Tron Legacy. Some things should be left alone. It was more like "Tron Rerun". Same devices, similar plot. Even Jeff Bridges couldn't save it (and the evil clone, Clu, had that "I'm really just a cartoon" look about him throughout). No surprises. Not a lot of fun.

Gods and Generals A pretty decent marathon of a film (around 3.5 hours) of the opening rounds of the American Civil War. Makes me wonder how different Gettysburg might have been had Jackson survived and taken part.

I just watched the 1957 Cyclops that was on TCM this past weekend. Delightfully bad. It scared the pants off me as a kid though.

Get Low: Based in the 1920's, an old hermit (Robert Duvall) decides to hold a funeral party while he's still alive. He enlists the help of the local funeral director, and his employee (Bill Murray and Lucas Black) to fulfil his wish. While the story was relatively thin, the acting by the cast was impeccable. 3.5/5

Re: What was the last movie you saw?

Having no internet means I'm having to watch TV and films and stuff. So, two for me.

Kick Ass and Paul. Both were all right.
