I think people rarely talk about female actors since their Marlon Brando is still alive and kicking.

It's gotten mixed reviews so far. Some hate it, some love it. Doesn't seem to be much in between.

That's great though. Much more interesting than a film like Don Jon who most seem to think is just above average.

Reviews are quite positive in general though: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_wolf_of_wall_street_2013/

Don Jon was crap. I can't believe I wasted 90 mins of my life watching it

Will watch that one too, but it looks like David O. Russell is trying to be Scorsese.

It's been ages since I've been to a theater, but I saw American Hustle last night.

I was too busy being mesmerized by an American movie theater with assigned seat numbers and reclining Barcaloungers (shouldn't that be the official name of all Barcelona tifosi??).

Good flick. Paced well. Great acting class. Jennifer Lawrence proving me wrong about her being stone-faced. Recommended.

But what was with two Boardwalk Empire actors in a movie about Atlantic City??

Peet, I forgot, but you love sci fi, right? Are you looking forward to Interstellar?

You're comparing Don John to a Scorcese film?

Anywho, I'm planning on seeing it. By mixed reviews I meant that Peter Travers loved it while the Washington Post didn't.

No, just getting to the conclusion that even though the two films have the same amount of positive reviews, the Scorsese film have love/hate reviews while Don Jon reviews are just a tad above average. And that love/hate film are usually much more exciting - even if you end up hating them. The Rotten Tomatoes number itself is hiding important information.

Which reviewers are your "top" reviewers?

I don't like Streep at all, somehow she is so annoying. Same with every female musicians basically.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

streep is great, greatest? no way mourinho

 

[Dostoevsky]

I haven't seen many movies of her but she was great in The Bridges of Madison County.

 

[Lapa]

She can act for sure, no doubt about that. But still I don't like her.

 

[pitbull]

The Necessary Death Of Charlie Countryman - pretty cool, 7/10

Who would you put before her?

I really have a hard time finding comedies on film funny. Films like The Truman Show, Midnight in Paris and Groundhog Day have comedic moments, but they aren't exactly poor comedies. Intouchables was good, but you have probably seen it. Another one is 21 Jump Street. Thought it was decent.

Shaun of the Dead was great.

Haven't watched 21 jump street, I'll give it a shot
