Recently I have been watching a ton of movies, but just a few of them were
Sid and Nancy- Gary Oldman as SId Vicious- the bassist for the punk rock band The Sex Pistols- this movie is just watching someones life fall apart in the worst kinds of ways- it really made me dislike Sid Vicious ha
Hot Tub Time Machine- I thought this movie was hilarious- hot tub takes you back in time, try to rekindle old loves, play in the band one more time...etc. John Cusak at his finest- I don't know what else to say except it was hilarious, and having Crispin Glover in another movie about time travel was pretty funny
Ho, I haven't posted in this thread in a few days, and I've watched quite a few films, so it's time for the shorthand version:
Harlem Nights - Thought it was ok, but felt it should have been funnier considering the three generations of African American comedians involved.
Rising Sun - Typical Hollywood, take a good book by a great author and make a film that just doesn't live up. It's not a terrible thriller, but it's not exceptional either, despite the acting talents involved.
The Naked Gun - Hilarious. I'll miss you, Lt. Drebin.
Full Metal Yakuza - Bizarre, though about the norm for Takashi Miike. Still, I've seen others from his straight-to-DVD era that I enjoyed more.
Les Miserables in Concert - It's absolutely astounding how incredible the human voice can sound. Everyone gives a dynamite performance. Also, turns out the host of the original Iron Chef played Valjean in the Japanese production.
Brand Upon the Brain! - I ended up getting into this Guy Madden silent film thanks to the bizarre plot, but it took a little while. And at times the film feels like it's trying to be artsier than it really should be.
Six-String Samurai - Ok, so the plot's dumb, the fight choreography wasn't great, and the dialog was hammy. That's pretty much exactly what I wanted from this post-apocalyptic tale, and I enjoyed every minute of it.
Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear - Once again, hilarious. Makes me lament the loss of Leslie Nielsen even more.
