The Sting - Couldn't live up to my (admittedly high) expectations. The Newman - Redford combo is brilliant though.

Ghostbusters - Awesome. Enjoyed it a lot more than the 1st time I watched.

Dread - Psychological horror movie based on a Clive Barker story. A couple of well made scenes, but overall quite poor.

Jerry Maguire - Still highly entertaining. Obviously better than your average romcom, thanks in part to some fun details. How times have changed though: Tom Cruise was still enjoyable, Renee Zellweger was still charming & Cuba Gooding Jr still had a career.

Mr73 - French police thriller. Average at best, at times it felt like I was watching completely random scenes, they didn't even follow up on some plot points. I liked the director's previous one a lot better (36 Quai des Orfèvres).

Yeah, I have seen JCVD. Was pretty good, I wouldn't say it was hilarious, but it was definitely a fun movie.
Definitely his best movie ever. But that's not exactly saying much.

What kind of childhood did you have, man? Bloodsport, Kickboxer, Double Impact, Universal Soldier, Hard Target, Time Cop...all classics.

It was funny at the beginning, then it sort of trailed off a bit.
Yup, I guess it's partly because you get used to the whole concept after a while.

Honestly, I was never really into fighting movies when I was a kid, though I have seen most of those you mention. I was just much more into costume dramas & Albanian arthouse flicks.

Since we're on old-style action movies, couple of days ago I saw Tango & Cash again. Still awesome for what it is. :D
