i finally got to see cloud atlas, i thought the movie was good and transitioned pretty seamlessly for a movie with so many "settings", but had the following reservations:

- English! it was really annoying trying to decipher tom hanks and his buddies doing their impression of jar jar binks, same with the asian chick i mean cast someone we can understand
- Halle berry is still a mediocre actress/actor
- too much agenda pushing by director

so overall. audacious and creative work but imo could have been better
I believe the speech is written that way in the books.

Oh, I watched Love and Other Drugs as well, which is not my usual fare.

Generally a rambling nonsense, enough variants of naked flesh to keep most people happy. The ending made me think a little, I wonder if everyone would choose the same.

Lincoln What a borefest.
I can't help being cynical when I watch the trailer to that.

Just saw Skyfall on noobroom . To say it really i had read the previous comments here , but seeing the exellent reviews i was really pumped , only to be left extremely dissapointed . I didn't think it was the worst bond movie ever , but it generally sucked .

First the story wasn't really that compelling , typical story with no exeptional twists and also it was a boredom for a great part of the movie . The only thing that redeemed it was javier bardem , which was great and berenice marlohe who was a nice piece of ass , althrough we didn't get to admire it that much :( . The action was a joke , unbelivable and ridiculous piece of crap action scenes . I heard that berenice marlohe brought not only looks , but also acting chops to the menu , but she barely was in the movie for 5 minutes . She was there just so bond could could fuck her . I also watched vids of the spy girl actrees doing training of handling weapons and guns before shooting the movie so that everything could look real , so couldn't somebody learn to daniel craig how to fucking fight ? He is ridiculous , in the hong kong fight scene with the bodyguards he has a stance of a typical street thug . James Bond is supposed to be a trained Agent

And for last , what was up with the last scenes ? Bond always get's the fight to his enemies , he doesn't hide like a rat and set up traps . It is not a tower defense game , the house scenes looked like an R-Rated version of Home Alone , it's james bond ffs
So, so true.

Bond movies have always been famous for the car, bond girl, gadgets & epic fight scene. Skyfall was a major snorefest.
