My daughter is going to see Skeleton Key next week, she is not easily scared, so I think she will love it.,our review guy did not give Kate a good review on her acting ability in this movie, but what the heck does he know, Kate is always awesome in my books .:)
Cool, I have been trying to hear from anyone who's seen it for any kind of review. Thanks for posting this! :)Quote:

I saw the Skeleton Key yesterday and loved it! It was a lot better than I thought it would be. Great ending.
Ditto what Julie said.Quote:

I thought it was going to be completely stupid, especially since it's only PG13, but it was pretty good. :) I saw it the day it opened with a few friends and jumped once. :o When the guy choked her in his apartment/house/whatever.
Constine(SP?) dang thing nearly put me to sleep
Yeah Constantine my daughter wanted to see that, and hired it out but found it toooo....boring.
Good to know that! I almost rented it at Blockbuster last night.Quote:

Well keep in mind Melissa is only 13, so what appeals to her may not to older people, but then Vette is in her early twenties and she did not like it either.:)
Justin and I just watched A Beautiful Mind. We'd seen it a few years ago in the theater and loved it. Justin bought it this past week and we watched it tonight. It's such a good movie.
That is a great movie. Have you seen The Insider, yet? It and A Beautiful Mind are two of my favorite Russell Crowe movies... they're both dramas and based on true people.Quote:

No, I haven't. Thanks for the recommendation, I'll have to see it.Quote:

Have you ever seen Heat or Collateral? They're directed by the same director that did the Insider, so, it's filmed similarly. He has a very interesting style, and, the score is really intense. Al Pacino and Christopher Plummer are in the film, as well.Quote:

The house of Sand and Fog (hope i got that name right or close to it lol) was a reasonably good movie I watched not that long ago.
Is that the one with Ben Kingsley and Jennifer Connolly? I wanted to see that, it looked intense, if that's the movie I think you're talking about. :)Quote:

We just watched "Sin City".
I also watched "Somethings Gotta Give". I just love that movie.
Was it a fun movie?Quote:

hmmm, i guess you could say it was a fun movie. Not really for sure how to describe it. When we first started watching it I thought "OMG, I'll never make it through this movie". Then I found myself getting into it. It is definitely different, but you have to remember it is a Tarentino and Rodriquez(spelling) movie.

That's right with Ben Kingsley and Jennifer Connolly. I loved it. It was very intense. A beautiful film IMHO. I watched it quite awhile ago originally and actually loved it so much I bought the movie. I have watched it several times and there are still scenes that grip you in a strong hold and stick with you.
Watched Suspect Zero recently and loved it. Another one with Ben Kingsley. Nice concept and different, a very good different. Kingsley is outstanding once again.
Watched Amelie again last night for the 4th time. I love this quirky, intelligent, funny film. I thoroughly enjoy it each and everytime I see it.
Owwww, I almost forgot. The Pledge with Jack Nicholson. Magnificent. An absolute must see. I will say no more though. Nicholson's character is fabulous. So tragic.
I love both of them! Four Rooms is one of my favorites! :) Cool, now I really want to see it, I didn't know who directed it...Quote:

I love Ben Kingsley, but, haven't seen Suspect Zero yet. I think my friend has it, so, I'll have to borrow it one night. And, Amelie is a great movie! Haven't seen the Pledge, though, but, I love Jack Nicholson!Quote:

I saw "Red Eye" and "The 40 Year Old Virgin" today. Red Eye was pretty good. I love Rachel McAdams. 40 Year Old Virgin was a riot. Very funny!
Secret Window with Johnny Depp. Great movie! I had it figured out about halfway through but that didn't spoil it at all. I'm getting ready to watch Sean of the Dead. I heard it was a great comedy.
Hubby and I went to see Skeleton Key. He thought it was scary and I thought it was just plain dumb:p
Oh, man, that movie made me laugh so hard! It was awesome! Not for everyone, but, I thought it was wonderful.Quote:

the forty year old virgin. not worth more than a couple bucks, but, i did laugh. :)
We just watched "The Skeleton Key" and hubby and I both enjoyed it thoroughly. :) We also just watched Lion King 1 1/2 again. It always makes us laugh.
The River Queen will make its debut in Toronto, if anyone there gets to see it, i would love to know what you think, all filmed in Aoetearoa (NZ), I have heard it is mean't to be brilliant.

You know what I thought was cute? They changed the ending from the short story! All through the movie, the big deal was about changing the ending of the novel and the movie's ending was different from the short story....I thought that was great:)
I saw Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. It's wonderful but oh so sad. I cried and I don't normally cry in theatres. It's a good movie but a better book. It's a YA (young adult) novel so it's an easy read. :)
LMBO i think i fell asleep when i went to see that :o. I have since watched it again and did stay awake and thought it was ok.Quote:
Once Upon a Time in Mexico, watched it last night, though I plan to watch it again today. Crazy, comic book, violent, yet funny film, reminded me of some of the comic books my JJ used to have.
I went to see "Charlie and the CF" and i thought it was great, the first movie i have seen in a long time that i have enjoyed. It will definitely be joining the DVD collection when released.
I also watched "Stand By Me" again today, i love that movie *Tears*.
Haven't watched any movies so far today.
Last night I saw 40 Year Old Virgin, I loved it! I was constantly laughing until I couldn't breathe, my eyes were watery and my stomach was cramped.
I have been watching The Boondock Saints a lot recently, it is one of my favorite movies. Very action-packed, very good movie. Not to mention the two Irish men are H-O-T! :p
Anyone remember Young Frankenstein? It is Mel Brooks with Terri Garr, Gene Wilder, Marty Feldman many others...so funny!!:D
I think we have watched it dozens and dozens of times. There are so many lines in that movie that we use all the time in regular conversation and I forget where they come from until I watch the movie again. It ALWAYS makes me :D
Young Frankenstein is a CLASSIC! Who cannot love that movie? I have been watching that movie since I was a toddler. Gene Wilder is a great man, hilarious actor!
Hubby is a big Mel Brooks fan. We have Young Frankenstein. I got it for him as one of his Christmas gifts. A few other Mel Brooks films we love are "Space Balls", "Blazing Saddles" and "Robin Hood Men In Tights".Quote:

I think my favorite is "Men In Tights" that was too funny. Little John is just the best. :D
Oh yeah and if you get a chance and can find it. Look for Frankenweenie. It's a Tim Burton short. Hilarious !!! :D
I saw Jersey Girl (Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler, JLo's part was small), I seriously thought it was going to be awful but it really wasn't that bad. Nothing Oscar worthy of course, but I sat through the whole thing. I keep hearing RAVE reviews about Wedding Crashers (Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson), so I will need to see that one day.
Diary Of A Mad Black Woman.
I liked it:)
One of my favorites!! I love it. I saw it for the first time a year or so ago, and, I've watched it about thirty times...what a great soundtrack! That scene with the toilet is awesome! :) And, yeah, they are super gorgeous.Quote:

I love that film! It's a favorite comedy of mine. Put zee candle beck. Ha ha ha. And, pardon me boy...is this the Transylvania station? Or, how about when they have to touch elbows cuz he can't touch her nails, her dress, her hair, her makeup...that's genius. I always do that when my hands are full and hope that the other person knows the movie. Frau Blucher!!! That's a tremendous movie...Quote:

Just finished watching The Grudge. Man, I've forgotten how lame that movie is. :p I LOVE Sarah Michelle Gellar, she's one of my favorite actresses, but I was kinda disappointed with the whole movie, although I'd like to see the Japanese version.
I just saw The Constant Gardener. It was SOOOO good!
Just watched March of the Penguins and Wedding Crashers.
OMG March of the penguins was beautiful and I can guarentee if you love wildlife you will love this movie and you can be sure you will cry once or twice. So beautiful and so heartwretching.
Wedding Crashers was better than I thought it would be. Vince Vaughn is just fabulous in it. And it is quite funny. Some of the lines between Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson are priceless. It was worth seeing.
