Detachment - What a wonderful movie. For some people it may seem a little over the top,..maybe even pretentious. For me,...it's a depressing movie with wonderful shots and it's very fast-paced. It's melodramatic and bleak....metaphoric, almost too pictorial. It touches on many subjects related to the mind, but also generally, decay and of course, detachment.

Haven't watched this in awhile. I saw that someone uploaded it to YouTube and couldn't resist.

It's pretty terrific, even though the ending is a cop-out.

I just got back from seeing the 21 Jump Street movie.

I haven't laughed this hard and this much in quite a while; awesome movie.

Drive Angry, starring Mr. Nicolas Cage. I wanted to be amused by this farce, since I enjoy a dumb action movie as much as anyone (Shoot 'Em Up, The Transporter, so on). But the truth is, it's sad to watch this once-promising actor bury his career one terrible movie at a time.

Last night, I watched Weird Science with my family.
It was on TV.

Even though this is an 80s movie, it was quite funny.

The other night, we caught She Freak on TCM (I think). This absolutely has to be the worst movie ever made! I mean, it makes Plan Nine From Outer Space look like Citizen Kane! And to make things worse, they stole the ending from Todd Browning's far superior movie, Freaks. If you see this movie coming on, don't walk to change the channel on the remote - RUN!

The Thing.

It was really creepy, the special effects were fantastic considering this film was made in the 80s.

I've been to see "The Iron Lady" tonight.

It was good, but definitely not suited for 6-year-olds. ^^

I watched the Descendants last night. Over-hyped oscar bait imo.

I saw Chronicle a few weeks back. I enjoyed it personally.

"It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" - Had never seen this one before. Not my kind of thing, but entertaining anyway.

The following are things I've seen more than once, but it was nice to re-watch them.

"2001: A Space Odyssey" - Works really well if you crank up the volume in the opening.
"Citizen Kane" - Remains a highly entertaining film.
"Faces" - I think I'd be happier if a lot of the improv style of the film were trimmed down, but still, it's quite a good film.
"Mary and Max" - Still don't really like the ending, but on the whole, it's a good film.
