Let me guess... You are gonna love it. You love any movie with Monica in it. :D Your opinion about Malena will be extremely biased! :D
Heheh, maybe you're right in some part of your words... :) But I don't buy movies that I didn't read about in Internet. "Malena" got 2 Oscars so I guess it's a good movie. And finally, there are some not very interesting movies with Monica. I saw some of them.... and I didn't like them. :wink: :)

Well, I haven't watched it... But the thing is, I didn't watch it because it's the kind of movie I would never ever watch! I can't take the overly sentimental American movie with "touching" background music throughout the entire movie and grossly exaggerated (and unrealistic) sentimental moments made even worse by exaggerated performances. I give those movies 28 thumbs down. :D :shock:

Terminator I is of course LEGEND (II isn't, it's just good) and so is ALIENS. Those two movies are probably in my "top 10 movies ever" -list.

Yeah, thats what I meant :red: but, for some reason I always say ROTLA 1,2&3 because they are so closely intertwined.
Oh, Kate Capshaw is Spielberg's wife--they have 6 children. He must love her very much! :D

Yesterday night I have seen "willy wonka and the chocolate factory" dated 1971 with Gene Wilder. I was curious to see the original film...that's not bad :)

miditek wrote:Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan

This weekend, I took my girlfriend to see this mock documentary. It stars British actor Sascha Baron Cohen as Kazakh reporter Borat Sagdiyev, who along with his trusty producer Azamat, are commissioned by the Kazakh Ministry of Information to interview various people in the, as Borat describes is, the "US and A".

The entire audience laughed through just about the whole movie. This film will doubtlessly offend folks that are thin-skinned or politically correct, but will delight the rest.

Borat encounters one outrageous adventure after the other as he learns street slang from black gang members, gets drunk with college fraternity guys, goes on a date with a prostitute, pisses off an entire arena full of rednecks at a rodeo, proclaims that he's going to California to meet/marry his beloved Pamela Anderson, and "speaks in tongues" with evangelical Pentecostals, among others.

This is absolutely one of the funniest and most offensive movies ever made.
Yagshemash!
This guy is insane. I don't know how much of the movie was staged (probably not much, from what I've read), but he could've been killed for some of the things he did, like the rodeo scene ...
The movie is offensive, disgusting in some places (the fight with his producer) but above all - hysterically funny ...

P.S. Sasha Baron Cohen speaks a pretty good Hebrew for someone who wasn't born in Israel, I was able to understand all of what he said in "Kazakh" :)

Da Vinci -code
Crappy film. Few things presented in it are based on facts. Although I have to say that if I were religious, I would surely read throug the Apocrypha. The Bible is a historical and cultural product, it didn't fall like that from the heavens.

Caché
Every fan of Lynch -like films should check this one out. It starts similarily to Lynch's Lost Highway, this is intentional I guess. I don't want to reveal too much about the plot, but it begins with a family recieving video tapes with shots od their house from outside. This is a typical European film, slow and "arty". But great nevertheless.

SAW III??? *jealous*!

I can't wait until feb to see the movie!!!! I have seen the first one and the second one (but this in the cinema at midnite :) ). I just heard, number 3 is really hard and very good!!!!

My last movie was Vanilla Sky.
Quite not a bad movie but the end is really surreal and I am not sure if I have noticed every single detail...

But the movie is really good and the line between dream and reality is so small that you can't decide.... Very good!

Watched "Malena" yesterday. Well, 9 points of 10! :) There are so many movies where Monica Bellucci acts without any words. "Malena" is one of such movies too. She was silent almost all the movie but there were some strong emotional scenes where I was almost crying, for example, when angry women cut her beautiful hair and broke her clothes.... Strong movie, very strong! 8) My beloved Monica, she is so beautiful.... She is magnificient! :)

I saw it last saturday. The best Bond so far. :) Daniel Craig was more believable than Pierce Brosnan. The movie was too long IMHO (2h 27 mins) I liked the story and the acters. Keep on rocking.

I'm not really a Bond-fan but I really liked it too. And I don't think it was too long, I actually had a feeling it ended too soon. :P Other movies I just saw:

Carrie
The first ever movie adabted from Stephen King's novel by Scarface-director Brian DePalma.
8

Army Of Darkness
Final chapter of the Evil Dead -trilogy. These movies are hilarious. You got to see the partly slow-motion -made battle between men and the army of the dead. :lol:

You are right about the Bible. Educated Christians would agree. :)

@Mormegil, Army of Darkness is good, indeed---Bruce Campbell is a terrific actor both in comedy&drama!

I have to admit that the film is fairly entertaining. But not more (or less). It's good for a rainy, lazy day. It's worth renting.

Lucky Number Slevin

Surprisingly very good movie! Overall nice expect Josh Hartnett sucks hard and I was disappointed because he didn't die in the movie...

Batman Forever

Val Kilmer as Batman was a bit boring and Chris O'Donnel looked stupid & gay. Nicole Kidman's performance was mindless also, but the bad guys were great: Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey stole the show easily.
The plot was stupid but in fact I liked this movie. Of course it wasn't anything if we compare it to the first Batman movie, which was truly masterpiece with mighty Jack Nicholson.
