The Expendables

3 out of 10

absolutely dire

This piece of shit film.....1.5/5

Now the chap above has been in a few movies now and to be honest I've yet to laugh at anything he has said or done. Is it an American thing that I just don't get?

On the last thread like this someone rated Anitchrist (at least they said Dafoe got his nob smashed up so I'm hoping he's only had that done once). Well they gave it something like 2.5/5 or 3.5/10, something like that. Well I'd give it 5/5 or 9/10

the new sherlock holmes ..

good movie 8

"The Devil inside"....... 4/10

No, That's 'The Devil's Double' your thinking of.

schlock holmes .. isn't this supposed to be a mystery .. absulutely no plot .. no mystery to discover .. spoiler .. its Moriarty .. but schlock tells u that in the first 10 minutes .. the rest is pretty much the same plot and action sequence in every single james bond movie ever made .. except they added MATRIX special effects .. and then the end comes .. yup still Moriarty .. wow mystery solved .. except how the fuck do they come back to life after falling down a waterfall in the middle of winter hundreds of miles from any form of civlization or rescue unit .. juat an all around stupid premise and plot and delivery .. the movie was entertaining in a rehashed hollywood way .. 1 out of 5 .. same with girl with dragon tatoo .. pure crap

I didn't like the earlier Sherlock Holmes recast as some action hero. Awful.

So I've stayed far, far away.

I enjoyed the Swedish Millenium series films. Thought this one would be decent?

Try to decide if I'll see it.

The Devil Inside..3/5

1.5/5 it sure was loud. I did watch the whole thing so that's good.

Hey Sherlock Holmes was deep and complicated, it had many valleys and mountain tops. Okay that waterfall scene was a bit ridiculous,and he survived with the aide of the little bitty breathing device. I cracked up, cause they knew that was over the top.

True story: yesterday I went to my local multiplex to finally see Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol because it was sold out when I attempted to see it the day after Christmas. I was going into one of the screens it was playing on when I was distracted by this poster for an upcoming movie.

So anyway, I walk into the theater expecting to see Tom Cruise dangle from the Burj Dubai, but instead I end up see this:

Well, that's okay, because this was the only other movie I was really anxious to see over the holidays. I thought it was pretty decent, but a little depraved; sort of like The Silence of the Lambs when it first came out. Now I haven't read the books nor have I seen the original Swedish movie trilogy, which some say are better than this movie. But it's worth checking out. 3.0/4.0

Sat on my shelf. Heard nothing but great things.

Yeah it's pretty decent..i'm going to watch it again tonight.

Our Vines Have Tender Grapes Edward G Robinson

watched it this morning . . 10 good movie

"War Horse".

No stars whatsoever. That movie was so depressing, and the horse was a jinx. Almost everyone that touched it died.

Do not waste your money on this one.

Book is good, play is something else

There is no possible way they could be worse.

After thinking about it overnight, I'm firmly convinced that "War Horse" is the worst movie I've ever seen.

There's not one single moment of joy in that movie. Not one.

Have you watched Requiem for a Dream?

No. LOL, is it worse than "War Horse"? And was there really a play? I'm cracking up, trying to imagine a horse on a stage.

I want to take this opportunity to list the effects on every person that the War Horse (actually named "Joey". Yes, "Joey") touched:

The Kid - Got gassed, lost his eyesight, got it back, saw his best friend gassed to death

The Kid's Dad - Drunk, no self esteem, blew the rent buying a worthless horse, lost his turnip crop

The British Officer - Died the first time he charged the War Horse at the Germans

The German Horse Kid - Got himself AND his brother executed because they tried to go AWOL on the War Horse

The French Girl - Died, although not from falling off the War Horse, which everyone expected because her grandfather tells us that she has weak bones and isn't allowed to ride a horse because if she falls off, all her bones will break. But she dies anyway

The French Grandfather - Loses everything except his farm, which he almost loses buying War Horse at the After The War Auction. After paying everything he has for the War Horse, he gives it to The Kid, leaving him broke and horseless

The Second German Horse Guy - Looked like a good guy and we don't know what happened to him, but you can be sure he died a horrible death in the war

The Brit and The German That Cut War Horse Out of the Barbed Wire - Unbelievably, the Brit survived. I'm sure that was a script error. We can be 100% sure the really nice German soldier died a horrible death by bayonet

The Big Black Horse - Died pulling German artillery. At least he didn't get a bullet in the head like all the other horses pulling German artillery did.

War Horse? More like Death Horse.

This quote from the author says a lot:

–Michael Morpurgo

Moneyball -I thought it was pretty good - 4/5
