Loved Hot Fuzz!

Just watched "One Hour Photo" - an odd little film staring Robin Williams as a troubled photo processing guy who obsesses on a family who's film he develops. Strange little movie. Not really scary, but quite disturbing when you think about the people who see your photos as they go by...

Williams is excepional in that movie. Seeing him as a "bad guy" like that made me realize just how good an actor he is.

and Hot Fuzz was great :D

Insomnia was so-so. He's good as a villain though.

that's what I was referring to, his acting rather than the movie :D

Saw Spiderman 3 and Next today.

Spiderman 3- Way better than the second one, IMO.

*spoiler in super small text*
I especially love the part where Spiderman rips off the Symbiote. Also, the part where he totally destroys Brock (not literally, but figuratively.

Next - A gripping story with a novel concept. I've heard some bad reviews of this movie...but I rather enjoyed it myself. I wish I could see into the future like him... :(

I saw Hot Fuzz today. It was entertaining enough. Well, everything is entertaining compared to the Fellini films I have to watch lately.

Makes sense, Fellini's movies are classic. Only know La Strada though :D

La Strada is my favourite Fellini film. La Dolce Vita and the 8 1/2 were a bit dissapointing.

I should see Dolce Vita when I get the chance, I'm a bit curious.

good call winter, about the spoiler and the statement that 3 > 2

Next was good too, but I'm always prejudiced where Jessica Biel is concerned

I'm going to watch No Reservations, maybe later when I got back home. I hope this isn't OT since I never seen this movie yet.

Maybe some of you have seen this. Any comments or suggestions? Personally, I think it is a love story. I have no stomach for love stories at the moment... :vomit: But my cousin insists that it is a good movie. Well, I'm a fan of CZJ so I think I should watch this! :D

haven't seen it, but it seems interesting .... I also like CZJ, more in her Zorro days, and entrapment, but she's normally good value

Yeah! Entrapment was sooo cool! She fell inlove with the guy isn't it? But the guy turned her down.

Well, in my case...I fall in love and then I get turned down...

Wait...this is the Movie thread? 8|

Oh yeah...

I saw Casshern yesterday...one of the most beautiful (the way it all plays out, and the philosophy surrounding the movie's events) movies I've seen in a long time. It's in Japanese with English subtitles, but I can definitely forgive that. :)
