One of my favorites. Might need to break out the DVD soon.

Funny, I just bought the DVD off ebay last week. Big Grin

Murder by Death was a much better murder mystery parody.


Though not parodies, I would put Death Trap and the original Sleuth in the Great Mystery catagory.

Saw both Pelham 123 and Hangover last weekend.

I thought that Pelham 123 was a good movie. Denzell Washington is always solid and Travolta plays a good psycho.

The Hangover is one of the funniest movies that I have ever seen. To me, it rivals American Pie 1 and Borat as the best I have seen in the last ten years. The writing is brilliant and the comedy is non-stop. Warning, it is definitely juvenile, male bonding humor.

I need to see The Hangover. There are so many movies out this summer I want to see on the big screen that I might have to wait for the DVD. But, I may succumb and just see it now, anyway.

Taken - Agree with others' opinions about this movie. Somewhat entertaining but nowhere in the league of a "Bourne" movie.

State of Play - Entertaining movie, with some very good performances. However, I think the dialogue was recorded too low compared to the music and sound effects. That made it difficult to fully hear and understand the dialogue, especially that of Russell Crowe, who has a low, "mumbling" voice to begin with. Still, a movie worth seeing.

Gran Torino. In some ways better than I expected. However, at times it seemed too eager to balance political incorrectness with overt political correctness. The Hmong girl was a little too flippant to be real. Overall I enjoyed the movie and the characters.

I've seen this several times and still enjoy seeing it.

An absolute classic.

Worth seeing but predictable. Decent action.

While he has had some other successes -- he wrote Point of no Return as well as La Femme Nikita -- Luc Besson really is a one hit wonder, imo. Nothing else he has done has come close to Leon: The Professional.

Lots of movies this week seen and on tap.

You Don't Mess With the Zohan - on TV. Second time I've seen it. Still my favorite Adam Sandler movie.

HP marathon. (Less than a month to go!)

Also revisiting The Godfather, Part II -- it has been about 4 years since last I saw it. Too long. Ditto Dr. Strangelove: Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. Ditto This is: Spinal Tap.

Not my "favorite" Sandler movie, but I really came to appreciate his movies more so while watching them with my son. Still enjoy the Wedding Singer, 50 First Dates, and Big Daddy. One of my favorite Adam Sandler movies was not typical of his work, but very well done; Spanglish.

Did you see them on Conan the other night? They certainly have seen better days, but they can still rock. Cool

Taken

Don't think about the possible plot holes or amazing coincidences or some of the darker aspects of the movie. Just sit back and enjoy the satisfaction of watching a very focused Liam Neeson dishing out a major ass-whooping to bad guys who so rightfully deserve it.
