I'm too lazy to look up the old thread, so I'll go through all the work of starting a new thread! 8.5/10 Finally saw Sweeney Tood last night, I thought it was brilliant. Depp's singing wasn't perfect, but I thought it was good enough to carry him through the movie. Some of the murder scenes were amazing, especially the Judge's.

Not one action scene but it does not need any.
I saw <u>Bucket List </u>this past Sunday. It was decent. It took forever to develop & could have been funnier IMO Jack N is hysterical. JN was almost in <u>Bucket List</u> as good as his performance in <u>As good as it gets</u>. Morgan Freeman is a great sidekick. I recommend it
Cloverfield - 9/10 I thought the movie was brilliant. Once it got going, it never stopped. By far one of the most intense movies I've ever seen, with the main highlight being the subway scene. Sweeney Todd - 8.5/10 Gotta go with Mamba here. I thought it was a solid movie and was shocked by Depp's singing ability.
Juno 8.8/10 I'm weird, I thought it was a really good movie. I'm not sure why, either. Corncob pipes are awesome. I'm about to watch Cloverfield tonight. I'll see if it lives up to the lame hype.
3/10 They really shit on the original Predator and Alien movies. This was even worse than AVP. Tomorrow, I'll probably watch the 1979 Alien. You can't beat the originals.
It was on the other night. I really used to like the film as i was hooked on the games but seeing it again made me see just how cheesy it was. but still a good movie none the less a good film
\ 9.5/10 Great film. I was practically glued to the screen throughout the whole movie. The whole handheld camera idea just made the movie feel so realistic, at least to me. I felt like I was actually there. The ending was pretty lame, I'll admit, but other than that, it was a joy. Possibly a sequel? <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The producers have discussed the possibility of a sequel, or rather a retelling of the movie's premise, noting that there were probably many other movies being shot that night. Abrams pointed out, for example, that somebody is filming next to Hud during the bridge scene and that this moment would provide a natural point for the two movies to cross over. But they say they don't intend to release a film purely on the success of the first--a sequel would have to be in the "spirit" of the original. There are many other possible sources of footage of the "Cloverfield" incident. Most of the soldiers in the movie have video cameras mounted on their helmets (as in real life), and there is extensive TV news coverage of the monster. There's also the possibility of a prequel. The backstory for this film is only available on the internet.</div> Source
The Mist: +5 for having a cool ending, +5 for that cool guy who shot the lady with the milk, and -4.6 for the rest of the movie sucking, and the black guys being racist. 5.4/10

Doesn't get it done for me. jizz/10 Matt Damon is on my list of guys I'd go gay for (no homo?).
The Good Shepard - 7/10 A really interesting movie that takes you behind the scenes behind the bay of pigs (at least according to hollywood's interpretations). Unfortunately the movie isn't in chronological order, leaving the viewer trying to sift through the time line in addition to the CIA's red-tape. Matt Damon gives a good performance in the sense that he makes Edward Wilson believable as a stone-faced emotionless CIA leader who has to balance his personal life with his profession. The movie gets an "incomplete" for the first viewing, but after you piece everything together, it gets up to a 7/10 by the 3rd viewing. edit: You people that think that Helena Bonham Carter is hot are crazy.
