I love the actor who plays Charlie. In my opinion, all movies he is in, seem to surprise me just the way charlie bartlett surprised you.


I just saw Sherlock Holmes though. It was interesting, except I kept damn falling asleep.
Yeah that actor was great in Star Trek. Wasn't he the kid from Alpha Dog as well?

So was Sherlock Holmes boring or were you just sleepy? :lol:

Yeah he was in Alpha Dog. I was surprised that a movie with justin timberlake could be so good.

And sherlock holmes was pretty cool and it felt like watching one of those old BBC specials like "A Tale of Two Cities" except much better acting and fighting. I just seemed to blink, and open my eyes and be 20 minutes further into the movie.

I saw The Spongebob Squarepants Movie two days ago. That's probably my favorite movie based off a cartoon show ever.

Paprika. Very interesting movie, and pretty weird so I had to mull it over a bit before I had the slightest idea of what had actually happened. Also, that song they play throughout the movie seems catchier than it should be.

It's because it's made by Susumu Hirasawa, who is without a doubt my favorite musician from the East.

I watched "The International" last night. I really enjoyed it, though my wife did not find it as engaging as I did. It had an excellent shoot-out at the Guggenheim. I don't know how they shot that thing.

It wasn't an incredible film, but I thought it was solid and entertaining. It's currently available on watch-it-now on Netflix.

EDIT* It looks like they actually built a life-size replica of the Guggenheim museum for the shootout I mentioned above.

There are parts of the movie that are a little hard to follow, but I really liked how they chose to resolve the plot.
