Interesting, I haven't read the book but I heard it was really shit. I've seen the movie though and I enjoyed it.

i think its just one of those things where if you read the book before the movie, you will relate to the book and the movie will seem shit, where as people that dont read the book and see the movie will think its awesome and will never get into the book.

I think if they hadn't died millions of heads would explode worldwide in sheer incredulity.
And Tom Cruise may be an utter douche but he's had some pretty good performances.

Vanilla Sky? Seriously? Mitch Mitch Mitch *shakes head*

Yep, I thought it was better than Open Your Eyes, primarily because I think Tom Cruise did better in the role. I know you thought the opposite, but there we go.

Open Your Eyes was superior, in my opinion, but I didn't really love it either.

The Objective

Pretty good for what it is really, got lots of suspense and surprises. If you dont mind sci fi its good. Better then most the crap out atm anyway.

A sinking shit? Nifty.

leonardo degrosso no thankyou

Sometimes I like Titanic, sometimes I don't.

I went through my list movies I've seen that I still have to review looking for girly films but only had one

Labor Pains (2009)

* *

Cute and entertaining, but overly average and slightly irritating.

She didn't look too thin in the movie. That is the beauty of film, the actors play characters, not themselves, so in the movie she wasn't anorexic or a lesbian.

currently watching Push, so far its a pretty shit movie

Push: 1/5. I'm inclined to give it an extra star or so because i love dakota fanning, so 2.5/5 lol

you didnt watch it in 3D man...

Ladies and gentlemen, the worst film ever. So many people will have you believe, including myself (my previous pet hate was Mars Attacks). I'm going to spoil the hell out of this film, but in the end nothing happens you wouldn't expect.

Camille Keaton plays Jennifer, a New Yorker travelling out to the countryside to write a novel. While on a boat in the middle of the river two guys come along(one of which who reminds me of the Bear Jew from Inglorious Basterds, but I couldn't find an appropriate image to put on here), tie their boat to hers, bring her to two other men , beat her rape her and let her go. She begins to go home when they catch her again, beat her and rape her. They let her go and she gets back to where she is staying, only for them to catch her, beat her and rape her. The retard of the group (quite literally, he is a retard) is told to kill her but only when the others have left the house. He doesn't.

Two weeks later she plots her revenge. Her first kill is the retard, who she lets fuck her again (letting him finish, I should add) before hanging him. The second guy she seduces and brings back to her house. While giving him a handjob she castrates him and lets him die in the bathtub. Later she throws an axe into a guy's back and kills the Bear Jew with an outboard motor. Movie over.

There's no music in this movie besides a record which Jennifer puts on to drown out the castrated rapists screams for help, and that's probably a good thing because if there was any music you wouldn't hear any of the shitty dialogue. What was most disgusting was her use of sex to plot her revenge. It's disturbing and ridiculous, and the only time the film realises that left me in hysterics.

Do not see this film. It's 100 minutes long and my mate and I had to struggle to keep watching it. It's vile, offensive filth with no value at all. None.

it still would have been shit, just a few more "wooooow" "holy shit!" etc

Sounds like a messed up movie. A mate recommended this but thanks for saving me lol.

damn, ill pass then lol

oh, i thought you watched it in 3D and was insinuating that i should have seen it in 3d. i wouldnt not see a movie because i say its shit though

@ plip push doesn't come in 3d are you sure your not confusing it with UP?

sorry i meant the movie "up". (thanks jossergirl)
but i havent seen push either.

lol np i want to see UP in 3d hopefully next week

yea same lol
i watched ice age 3 in 3D and that was pretty decent.

i found out the other day that the first 10 mins of harry potter were the only 3d scenes and i missed them cos i was late they're was supposed to be scenes at the end in 3d as well but guess they couldn't be bothered.

i havnt seen a 3d movie in ages, i saw photos of the new glasses and was like 'wooooo wtf are those things"

so used to the red and blue glasses

what are they now cyan and magenta?

thats a rip off..
you paid more for a 3D movie and it was only 10 mins, i would be pretty annoyed.

I Spit On Your Grave was shit. Banned in Australia because it was crap, not because of any violence or anything.

Homecoming (2009)

* 1/2

The writer claimed it to be a teen spin on the film Misery, it is actually more like a teenager saw Misery, then decided to write a similar story and slap the 'Homecoming' title on it. Barton's acting was flaccid, the dramatic scenes and story between Long and Barton were unrealistic and uncomfortable and the remainder of the film outside of the house (when Barton is chasing after Long while she has Stroup tied up in her house) was poorly thought out and, again, unrealistic. I will give this film credit for the scenes inside the house and towards the end. Although there were some poor decisions regarding timing (something crucial to build tension and suspense in a film like this), for the most part, I felt genuinely sympathetic towards Stroup and feared for her safety under the psychotic care of Barton. There was also some great additions to the soundtrack that surprised me, which is always a plus. The story is very simple, boy and girl are together through high school, boy leaves to college, girl stays home waiting for his return even though they are on a break, boy comes back with new girlfriend, girl accidentally runs over new girlfriend then decides to keep her prisoner at her home and pursues boy. There are really no twists and it was quite predictable.

Overall, I would only recommend this if you are a big fan of Mischa Barton or Jessica Stroup, even if Barton played her character quite poorly (apart from the psychotic parts).
