What was the last movie you've seen?

I saw The Adjustment Bureau. For free, thank heavens for that.

Rarely seen a movie take a turn for the worse like that in the last 30 minutes of it.

Also watching Cleopatra in honor of Liz Taylor. Good movie, though it gets a bit dull at certain points, much like any epic of the day.

Finally watched Endhiran/Enthiran/Robot yesterday with a group of friends. It was certainly full of cheese and random musical numbers, but it was a fun and very entertaining movie. The story had plenty of nods and cliches in it, but was pretty decent. I didn't notice beforehand that it was also 3 hours. Even though the DVD isn't perfect, it was still worth the $20+ I paid for it and I will certainly watch (and force others to watch) it again in future. Just don't bother with the '2-disc' version as the second is not extra making of or anything. One disc is Dolby and the other is DTS.

I watched the Alien Director's Cut last night. It was pretty damn good. The series can only go downhill from here

^ Have you not seen the Alien series before? Cool movies. Have fun.

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.

I loved Predator 2, but I also have a lot of love for the original. The only ones I didn't care for were the Aliens vs. Predators movies.

Speaking of the original Predator, I recently attended a screening of a 35mm print of the movie. The highlights of that screening can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4-wXNjKa3g

Exit Through the Gift Shop (2010) – When I heard that this documentary was a compelling look at street art, I had a lot of interest. I’ve long been curious about the late twentieth/early twenty-first century street art movement, the politics behind it, and the role of the web in preserving it. While the film is informative up to a certain point, I was generally unimpressed by the direction taken by the last half of the film (even if I understand fully why the film went there). It does do a good job of telling a story in an interesting fashion and for that it is worth seeing, but if you are hoping to learn very much about Banksy or the rest of the street art scene you may be underwhelmed and, ultimately, a bit disappointed.
Grade: 2.5/5

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

The Other Guys and Due Date were pretty funny comedy films
