Heard “Zookeeper” was the worst.
just took the kids to see super 8 the other day, i liked it, steven spielberg and jj adams from lost it was like close encounters meets the goonies
As much as I shouldn't, I LOVE the beginning of the movie ‘Escape From LA’ when the whole damn city brakes off from the rest of the country and is used as a prison. Good libertarian movie btw.
I only wish they woulda made more WWII movies from 1946-1975. My TV is constantly on the prowl for WWII movies. :)
The only movie I have watched this year is “Battle: Los Angeles.” Otherwise, I just watch movies from my Blu-ray disc collection. Today I am watching “The Patriot.”
Shane: The greatest Western of all time? Seriously? Nobody who actually likes Westerns thinks that, but that's the critics' choice.
2001: A Space Odyssey:? No plot, no pacing, no acting and a completely incomprehensible ending. Needless to say, the critics adored it.
The Day The Earth Stood Still: A great science fiction movie? The original is AWFUL and the remake was even worse. It's thinly veiled commie propaganda with a kewl robot who actually appears in all of about 90 seconds of the film. Bilge. The critics thought it was great.
The Longest Day: Terrible movie, according to the critics. Their choice: Full Metal Jacket. Oh PUH-LEASE give me a small break. The former is based on actual vignettes researched by Cornelius Ryan. The latter is -- like most of Stanley Kubrick's dreck -- completely unwatchable.
The audience tomatometer for Transformers is 90%. That is a huge number, and it tells you that if you like Actioners, you're almost certain to enjoy the film, regardless of what the critics say. I haven't seen it, but based on audience reaction -- not critical acclaim -- I'll go.
I didn’t think Green Lantern was all that bad... but then, I saw it for free.
Transformers 3 is a good movie. It’s theme to me seemed to be corrupted hope.
*spoiler alert*
Optimus and the autobots had decided that there was no hope of Cybertron ever being reached or livable again, and that their best hope was with humanity and aiding human freedom.
Megatron and the decepticons hoped to restore cybertron, where they claim all the robots were gods despite the fact that their war destroyed it. Their hope was based upon enslaving the human race to restore it.
A lot like Obama and the Democrats would enslave America pursuing a dream that can not possibly be.
Even Pixar finally put out a clunker.
I always resent the “we love bad movies” types...who is “we”?
The ones who still go to films regularly are teenagers, mainly boys, who think these are funny. The rest of us watch at home...when there are no good movies to see, we get out of the habit of going to films at all.
