I felt that the second movie, Aliens, is the best in the series. So if you haven't seen them yet, you're in for the best one next. Alien 3 is good, just not as good as the first two. And Alien Resurrection sucked.
No I have not seen the Alien movies before. Yeah I heard that the second one as good if not better than the first one, but that's what people said about Terminator 2 and the first one, and i didn't like Judgement Day at all versus the first one, so I dunno.
dsheinem wrote:Damien: The Omen II (1978) – When I saw the original Omen film for the first time late last year I was really blown away by how good it was. I had heard the sequels dropped in quality – and based on The Omen II that is true – but it isn’t a precipitous drop and this film is certainly worth seeing. The first film had a standout performance by Gregory Peck, and I anticipated that that the sequel would be filled with much lesser actors. To my surprise, not only was the titular character played wonderfully by the young Jonathan Scott-Taylor, but the lead role is acted with conviction by an excellent-as-always William Holden (shortly after his performance in the seminal Network). It is shot quite well, has a fantastic score (almost as good as in the first film), many excellent set design choices, and other than a few death scenes that have aged poorly (and were probably never very good to begin with), is a compelling suspense film.
Grade: 3.5/5
Yeah the Omen sequels weren't that bad. If you like the first one, you might as well rent the second and third. They are pretty good for sequels, let alone horror sequels which usually can be quite awful. Never saw the fourth one though.

Let Me In: Interesting but i didn't find myself all that taken with it.

Suckerpunch: Great action, but a plot that felt a bit too heavy handed.

Started watching, got halfway through, and plan to finish my first Godard film:

Literally, the title means "At Breath's End", but it's English title is "Breathless".

It's about a man named Michel who, after shooting a cop, stays with his New Yorker girlfriend Patricia, who sells the Herald-Tribune on the streets of Paris.

Good so far.

There's 2 reasons why I liked this:

1.The cuts are great

2.Jean Pierre Melville :D

I was lucky enough to see it on the big screen.

I hate you. I haven't seen a movie in theatres since the NOES reboot. Plus, the works of the great ones totally don't feel right on a 20some inch 4:3 screen at a slight angle.

Nope, but im told the story didn't stray that far. My roommate half-forced me to watch it with him since he loves the original.

The original one is on netflix instant but i haven't gotten around to it.

Tropa da Elite 2 aka Elite Squad 2. A very captivating story of intertwined crime and corruption. The narration can be heavy at times but it suits the nature of the film. Comes highly recommended.
