Hors de prix

If you like romantic comedies this is definitely the way to go. Sweet and funny. I loved both characters. It was worth staying up till so late at night and sleeping 4 hours.  ::)

IMAX: Hubble 3D --- I think I had an orgasm in the cinema.

10/10

I really want to see that movie.. even before I heard the review :D

Mongol

It's a very good movie. The cinematography is fabulous. The costumes are astonishing. The performances are good. The story leaves you the sensation that it lacks something but sometimes that happens with biographical/epic films. I'd recommend it.

I saw that movie a year or so ago. I liked it too. It wasn't warrior-like at all (which I wouldn't have minded).. it was much more relationship focused.

It Happened One Night
Funny.



Have you seen Bringing Up Baby?

Nick Frost needs to lose some weight.

He lurks here. Now he is crying ;D

Yep ;D I enjoy watching awkward Cary Grant more than suave Cary Grant.

Hors de prix
I liked it too. It's a nice fun movie.

Gilda
Rita Hayworth is a bombshell. Glenn Ford is so damn wooden wtf. I enjoyed the dance scenes. Good, but not great. The ending was a bit of a letdown.

Trucker
2008
It was OK.


Dim Sum Funeral
2008
Clich?d, but slightly enjoyable.

I was upset that they didn't actually show any scenes with dim sum, is that weird?  ??? :-\

Death at a Funeral (2007) - It has been quite a while that I haven't laughed that hard. Does Britain have some other such hidden jewels?  :P

Brilliant Film!!! Do not risk watching the recently released US version though, you'll be greatly disappointed.

The movie hasn't been a success in North America, which is why, I guess, they made the remake.  Which sucks, because people in America will mostly remember this movie as the not-so-funny movie with Chris Rock.

Yep, Hollywood makes a lot of money out of remakes. Some are very enjoyable although never better than the original one. I haven't watched the remake of Death at a Funeral but from the top of my head:

Welcome to Collinwood (I soliti ignoti)
3 Men and a Baby (Trois hommes et un couffin)
Everybody's Fine (Stanno Tutti Bene)

They are OK films to watch as long as you don't miss the real deal.

There is a movie coming up called Dinner for Schmucks and it is a remake of the French Le Diner de Cons. Now, the original is extremely funny and is one of my favorite movies. I can't think anyone else than Steve Carrell to play the role in the movie. Yet, I am afraid the movie will f*ck it up like did Taxi. That was a nightmare.
On the other side, Just Visiting wasn't that bad. It was not to the level of Les Visiteurs but still made me laugh a few times. Not like that awful Taxi remake. urgh.

I agree American Taxi is awful. But think about it this way: it's so different than the French Taxi that it's almost not a remake.  :D

9 (2005)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443424/
The Short was so good --- I may get the 'Full' Version
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472033/

Justice League of America (1997)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118365/
Not as bad as the IMDB led me to believe
Yes the (male) costumes were BAD
and the SFX --- Were NOT (Special)
But overall not bad = 5.5/10

The Invention of Lying (2009)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1058017/
Well ?!?!  I don't know what to say !
I am sure it would upset the God Botherers
Which can only be a good thing  ;D ;D ;D
Why did Rob Lowe have that Scuffy Stubble ?
Can't really recommend it and will prob... never see again
= 5/10


The Hollywood version of 'Insomnia' was not Bad
