What was the last movie you saw?

Umberto D.

An 1952 Italian neorealist movie about a poor old guy and his dog in WWII. Don't read the imdb spoiler. I'd have to say this is one of the best movies I ever watched. Good movies take you to a believable place that you have never been. Great movies provoke an emotional response. This movie does both.

It reminds me a little of Life is Beautiful. You could do worse than either of these for some not so mild drama.

I tried to watch "The truth about Love" with Jennifer Love Hewitt. Netflix. I think the Ghost Whisperer was cute.

When are people going to figure out that you can't fake a British accent? That goes double if you are Jennifer Love Hewitt. 20 minutes..... next...... What was that Stargate chick... err.. Amanda Tapping.... she's doing some scifi thing I might like, but I just can't take the phony British accent....

They sound like a drunk chick pretending to be British. No good could ever come of that. What happens after they start pretending to be British? It's never pretty.

Somehow I have this urge to run now........... RUN! FORREST!

The English Patient. Saw it for the first time last night believe it or not. I didn't know anything about it; didn't even know it was mostly a romance film, but it was alright. I'm usually not at all into romance, but this was done well enough to get me past that.

^ He kept his promise.....of course he did end up looking like a prune.....and he arrived too late...and...oh, never mind.

Wraith of the Titans 3D.

Some of the 3D effects were good, but the movie was crap. No story, just rush from one fight to another.

Beowulf (1999)

Beowulf gets a point for having Rhona Mitra in it. She's hot. Even with Rhona Mitra... 3/10...

Rango...

I usually like this sort of animated thing and Johnny Depp, but this movie has got to be the stupidest thing I ever saw. By 20 minutes, I was completely bored. That's mostly because the first 20 minutes of the movie are simply 99 ways to kill the lizard Rango. It got tedious. As did the mariachi owls, after 5 seconds. The animation is very poor too. It looks like they used 10 year old technology and the art is just ugly.

Rango himself is just ick. And the plot (if you can call it that) isn't any better. Take an iguana, put it in a paint shaker.........

People liked this movie. Were they giving lobotomies away free with your Rango ticket? I'm sure glad I didn't pay to watch this stinker.

I don't even think weed would help.

I always had a crush on Kristin Scott Thomas, Netflix has some.

The Tenth Man
Sarah's Key
A Handful of Dust
Up at the Villa

These were the best ones.

First Wives' Club

Good cast, funny movie, although it tends to bash men a bit too much.

last movie i watched was trigun badlands rumble, surprisingly good for a TV -> movie transition even though both were animated, it did have the annoying side effect however of making me wish the TV show wasn't long since over.

Hooked on Borgia. I can't wait for the second season in the fall. I think the only place you can get it is Netflix streaming.

isn't enough. Hella good.
