The Cuckoo (Kukushka). It was an ok movie.

I watched CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST. It's propably the most scariest and disturbing movie I've ever watched :shock: But it was also very very good...
But I don't really recommend it to anyone. In the movie, they even killed real animals :cry:

The Exorcism Of Emily Rose
Combination of a decent horror movie and a decent courthouse drama turned out to be a very enjoyable movie. Jennifer Carpenter's performance as Emily Rose is really impressive. 8)

A Knight's Tale

Nice movie. I like the sentences about womens from the boy and the ones from the woman.... because they are so typical and fits very good

Absolutely hillarious movie :)

I've seen Terminator today (first time in quite a few years) and it was surprisingly not that good ... I liked it much more when I was a teenager ...
Reasons - there's no humour in it (action movies without some dose of humour are boring or simply ridiculous) and the horrible 80's hair, clothes and everything else ... My favorite Terminator is a third one ...

To me, Knight's Tale is one of the most boring movies I've ever seen and Terminator is one of the greatest.

The Silence Of The Lambs
Absolutely phenomenal movie. Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter must be one of my favourite movie-characters with Tony Montana and Jack Sparrow. 8)

Vertigo
They just don't make movies like this anymore. :) It just got more and more exciting towards end and ended at the highest peak of it. My favourite Hitchcock-movie is still Psycho, but I really loved this one too.

Rented Eli Roth's "Hostel". I would give it an average rating- some of the parts in Amsterdam were amusing, but it seems like it took too long to set up the plot.

Oh, and the plot- people torturing others for sport. That's been done before, and I thought that "Saw" was a
much more intelligent and suspenseful film.

A really good horror movie that I'd recommend is 'Angel Heart' with Mickey Rourke and Robert DeNiro.

Triplets? (!) I have an old friend from school and she has a real set of triplet (all girls and they are identical, and at age seven are too cute!!!); and I love them as if they were my own daughters!! :)

Too funny... :lol: !
I have male cousins who are triplets, although they are not similar. And I also have female cousins who are non-identical twins. :)
Wow! Talk about a fertile family! :lol:

Shurik wrote:Der Untergang (Downfall) - German movie about 10 final days of Hitler and Nazi Germany in general. Ths is one of the best WW2 movies ever made ... The acting is great and the level of detalization is just stunning. The movie contains some of the most surreal and cruel scenes in any war movie, particulary last Hitler's birthday party organized by Eva Braun, scenes with children fighting russian tanks and everything that happens to Joseph and Magda Goebbels and their children after Hitler's suicide ...

Highly recommnded, this is definitely one of the best movies I've seen in a long while ...
Shurik, did you ever see Joseph Vilsmaier's "Stalingrad"? It was brutally realistic, much more so than Annaud's "Enemy at the Gates".

It was filmed in German, with English subtitles.

Stalingrad is IMO the best (anti)war-movie ever. I personally didn't like "Enemy At The Gates"... Do you know "Das Boot"? Also an excellent, brilliant movie.

I've heard about Stalingrad, never seen it.
Das Boot is great.

Most definitely- 'Das Boot' (the Boat) is a classic.
They sort of re-wrote the book on building up suspense in that one.

Went to see Clerks 2 tonight. I laughed so hard that I thought I would have a heart attack. In my opinion it was vastly superior to the first one, in fact it was the funniest movie that Kevin Smith has done yet.

I also watched Exorcism of Emily Rose, the most ludicrous thing that I have seen in a long time. They could have at least gotten a 10th of the actual story right. But if they kept it accurate there would have been no movie.

Match Point. It was ok but it got kind of stupid near the end.

Underground.

The most surreal Emir Kusturica's movie ... It's weird and only gets weirder towards the end ...

The only one I knew before watching the movie is Scarlett Johansson. Here's the rest: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0416320/

She's very young and definitely hot, but I can hardly believe that she was in a Woody Allen film already! :lol:

The Rock
It was good movie, though maybe a bit too overlong and some action scenes were... hmm, little clumsy. Good actors, especially my idol Sean Connery made great role. And who couldn't love his great scottish accent? :)
