Kung Fu Hustle

 

Meh.  It was okay.  Wasn't really that funny.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

But you are reading subtitles or worse, watching a dubbed version. Even people watched the film in Mandarin thought it was way funnier in Cantonese since Chow's delivery in Cantonese is his bread and butter.

Da Vinci Code

 

T'was ok. Very similar to the book, no real surprises. Pacing is stable and slow. Gandalf was excellent as usual.

 

For fans of the book only imo.

wedding crashers

 

Not the first time I've seen it, but still funny.

North by Northwest - Great old time flick.

 

 

Great pick, Kelverin.

 

I watched Cool Hand Luke again today. Dragline and his Lucille. LOL.

 

edit: and Surreptishus, were you impressed with the plane crash scene in Superman Returns?

Edited July 17, 200619 yr by Kor Qel Droma

And Lois bouncing about the cabin?

Yes, who didn't like the plane sequence? That was quintessential Superman. As for Lois, why did she take off her belt? Doesn't she know you're supposed to get into the crash position? Duh!

 

I need to see this film again. This time at IMAX.

Has anybody seen Gondry's Science of Sleep (Le science des reves) or The Valet (Veber, La Doublure)? It's film festival time in NZ and I'm wondering if I should bother with them. I like Gondry and The Closet was fun (Veber), but the reviews aren't so glittering for the latter and Gondry may be a little too avant for the people I"m watching with.

North by Northwest is one of my all time favourites. Can't get enough of Grant.

You in Auckland? Cause there's this move called Factotum playing.

Domino

 

Average at best. Kiera Knightly needs to never ever try to act the tough girl again but all was forgiven with her nudity. Mickey Rourk and Watkins are gold as usual but I found the plot just a little too over-the-top.

Isn't it a true story?

Saw the dubbed version first, didn't like it much. Saw the subtitled version, liked it better. Maybe you should teach me Cantonese so I can enjoy the movie to its fullest.

Well at the beginning the credits say;

 

"Based on a true story.......sort of"

 

And at the end the narrator (Kiera) says "and I wont tell you which parts were true", so make of it what you will.

I saw Squid And The Whale today. It's pretty good, though mostly for the acting. The story and directing are just ok.

 

Has anyone seen Me And You And Everyone We Know or Klimt? If so, what did you think about them?

Me And You And Everyone We Know

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I hear that be the worst movie in the history of cinema (yes, worse than Godard, Tati and Resnais put together) and a pathetic broad's crowning achievement. I suggest you read the plot outline and then rent, um, have you seen Visitor Q, A Short Film About Killing or Baisers vol

Show your friends the trailer for Science of sleep. See if it piques their interest at all.

It's peaked my interest!

Kung Fu Hustle owned.

 

I watched Waiting for Guffman.

Kung Fu Hustle is definitely a top contender for my favourite movie of all time. Absolutely love that movie so much, despite the fact that it may be dubbed and I might not actually have seen the true humour behind the story, etc, I still love everything about it.

 

Maybe the only thing I didn't like was the part where they all of a sudden turn into superman and start running ridiculously fast. Meh.

Dude, that movie made me want to go out and buy some My Dinner With Andre action figures.

It's 100F in the house, way too hot, so I'm off to finally see Superman Returns.
