The Prestige: Although I first saw this movie 4 years ago, I noticed and understood a lot more things about the movie this time. Most importantly, I realized that Alfred's agent was actually his brother in disguise. Maybe I was falling asleep when watching it the first time, but I just didn't notice it. Nolan did a great job distracting us from truly noticing him. Truly great film.

Captain America: Awful, awful, awful movie, poor directing, was unnecessarily long & weak plot. With that lame ending, it's obvious they have a sequel in the works.

Jules et Jim, thoroughly enjoyed it

The Avengers.

a serbian movie - i'm sure i won't dream about it or be affected in any way, hopefully

Heard about this one, definitely going to avoid it.

Went to see Tintin the other day. I know it's a kids movie but I have to say I really enjoyed it. A great action/adventure movie, and Andy Serkis is excellent as Captain Haddock.

Unknown, starring Liam Neeson and Diane Kruger

 

[Byrone]

The Avengers.

I'll definitely give it a miss.

Unknown, starring Liam Neeson and Diane Kruger

Really was a good movie. I just don't get how it was dubbed the sequel to Taken.

Unknown, starring Liam Neeson and Diane Kruger

As good as Taken?

 

[tyouto]

I'll definitely give it a miss.

if it wasn't thor in there i'm gonna miss it

 

[Byrone]

As good as Taken?

Not even close imo.

if it wasn't thor in there i'm gonna miss it

I haven't gone round to watching Thor, so i guess i'll have to watch & then judge.

 

[Jem83]

Yeah, Taken was better. But if you're into those type of movies, you're gonna enjoy Unknown.

Just saw "Limitless". Awesome movie!

Just saw Captain America, bit of a missed opportunity with this one, the lead is fitting for the role, but barely anything else is (compared to comics, could given him more heroic stuff, action scenes sucked). But unlike Byrone, I CANT wait for Avengers, Captain america was only character who's movie I hadnt seen, got that outta way, so will be cool to see all of them together.


Now to a decent movie I recently seen, Outrage, japanese yakuza film with Takeshi Beat, see it, its pretty typical for its genre, but still pretty slick one.

I watched Captain America today as well. I wouldn't give it as negative a review as By but I thought it fell short and failed to utilize a pretty strong supporting cast (Derek Luke, Tommy Lee Jones, Neal McDonough). The ending was camp, but necessary. Steve Rodgers has to be transported to the future if he's to lead the Avengers in the modern day.

All in all, it was better than the last Spiderman movie. But not as good as Iron Man.

 

[Osman]

Thats the thing, it build up the story of Captain america well enough in first half, but then fell short completely with follow up (basically when WWII parts started), like how they were taking out the bases of Hydra? Talk about missed opportunity, just quick run through bits and pieces, like a trailer of the events (more like montages), instead of actually seeing them for real, was unengaging (and those action scenes that was there was poorly directed). Same thing with Red Skull final showdown, built up as a great conniving villain, only for the big showndown to be....nothing? But Chris Evans as Capt atleast was a really good casting choice. Even if the rest of the cast wasnt used aswell as you said. Glad this director isnt doing Avengers atleast (its Joss Whedon, can do witty/camp well plus engaging storytelling).

 

[DVS]

I watched Tower Heist. Its not too bad. Eddie Murphy has a small part and does his usually thing. Make saying "hi" and use mannerisms to make you laugh. Decent cast had some funny moments. I suppose worth a view

 

[Klin]

The Son of No One - Fucking Channing Tatum and his acting. You would expect much more from a cast made up of Al Pacino (the fucker is getting too old), Ray Liotta, and James Ransone. 6/10.

 

[Fint]

Unknown: enjoyable movie, really wish Liam Neeson would work on his American accent though. On a side note, Diane Kruger, hot

Been hearing a lot of good reviews about it. Gonna watch later.

Totally agree, it did seem like some character development for Captain A and then a sprint to The Avengers and the Captain America sequel.
