The Invasion - the 4th film version of Jack Finney's The Body Snatchers. And a miserable experience it was too. Very poor.

We Are What we Are

After the patriarch of the family dies suddenly, the eldest son is forced to become the leader and take up the responsibilites of keeping the family fed. This involves hunting down people to be slaughtered for the families consumption.

While the film is marketed as a horror, it is in fact more a family drama. The children have been forced to take on dangerous responsibilities they have never had to endure before.

4/5

The Bucket List.

Watching it as we speak. So far, so good.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. A little different than I thought it would be, but pretty enjoyable.

Grown ups with Adam Sandler. A good funny film, but then I like Adam Sandler!

The Great White Silence (1924) This is Herbert Ponting's official record of Captain Scott's ill-fated South Pole Expedition. Recently restored and released by the British Film Institute, this film is compelling, sobering, powerful and deeply moving.

No One's making me watch films, the fiend. We've just watched The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou -- as usual for Wes Anderson, a very colourful, beautiful film with excellent dialogue. Damn him and his film abilities.

And next up is Unbreakable.

Both very entertaining movies.

Just watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part One. I am no longer anxious to see part two. Perhaps my problem is that I have never read a Rowling story.

Re: What was the last movie you saw?

Me im on TV movies, tv series dvd run. I saw The Sign of Four the first Sherlock Holmes film/tv series with the always brilliant Jeremy Brett. He is so perfect as Sherlock Holmes that somehow fit with the impossible ideal picture of the famous sleuth i have as a fan of the books. Im obsessed about him, i have forgot everyone other actor who has ever played Holmes that i know

A cruel and unusual punishment.

Tron Legacy - better than expected. CGI young-Jeff-Bridges was funny.

Paul - quite good. I laughed heartily at the "Leave her alone, you bitch!"

No prizes then for the last film I saw...

Excellent flick. Can't quite fathom how I've missed this one over the years. Highly recommended.
