I watched a movie on cable called "Buck" about a real life "horse whisperer" - guy, Buck Brannaman. There were terribly sad parts of it - his own childhood was brutal - and one horse is too mentally damaged and gets put to sleep (not on screen), but it is worth watching for anyone who loves horses.

Last movie was The Notebook. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0332280/

Really good movie. I'd watch any movie with Gena Rowlands in it.
Terrific actress.

Wanted. Entertaining, and I loved James McAvoy's performance. My favorite part in the movie was when he got his pay back with his horrible boss and his lying best friend. It was a brilliant scene haha

Angelina Jolie is the reason it took me so long to see this movie, I really don't enjoy her at all anymore, and seeing her completely nude just made me really sad for her. She was practically skin and bones and I just don't understand how anyone finds that sexy or hot. I have friends who have eating disorders and I'm not saying they're not beautiful people, despite their disease and what it has done to their bodies. I'm also not implying that Angelina Jolie has an eating disorder, but, in my opinion, she looked nearly skeletal in the movie, and I just don't understand why she is cast in a movie that is so physically charged. I don't understand how she's even able to walk in heels, her legs are nothing but bone.

My point is that James McAvoy, despite not being the typical "leading man" type, like Hugh Jackman or Russell Crowe, Brad Pitt or George Clooney . . . I totally believed in his character and what he was doing on screen (although it was completely over the top, with bending bullets and such). It was never at any point, believable that someone in Angelina Jolie's physical condition could do half of what the character was doing.

Anyway . . . I wasn't expecting to type all that, but since I have . . . I might as well submit it. Overall, it was fun to watch, and had a fun soundtrack, but not the best movie I've seen recently.

Kari i read her unauthorised biography, she is indeed one strange,mixed up young lady,cannot remember if it said she had an eating disorder, as was a while back i read the book.

Went to see the latest MISSION IMPOSSIBLE, loved this movie, so much action, was not bored for sure, some humor and female and Male eye candy, never been much of a fan of Tom, but loved him in this,not even my type of movie generally, but really enjoyed it 8/10.

I like her well enough, but she certainly has lost the physical sex appeal, at least in my opinion. I remember her as Lara Croft, that's when I thought she was sexy!

I want to see the newest Mission movie, although I'm not a fan of that style either, really. I LOVE Simon Pegg, though. Glad to hear it was fun!
