My advice: don't watch Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy unless you're going to focus your entire attention on it. And taking notes as you watch probably wouldn't be a bad idea.

that's the problem, I didn't take any. I feel like something big was revealed at the end though, i just have no idea whatsoever what that was.

Saw that too. Agreed. Real decent action flick


Watched this last night, I liked it. It seemed longer then it had to be but definitely one of Statham's better films.

This is available via Netflix streaming.

Chronicle- I had never even heard of this movie so was surprised it was so good. Special effects were good and the story was very interesting i thought.

New Years Eve - might have had the best cast in the history of celebrities but was a typical chick flick that was pretty boring and predictable.

I watched Chronicle on Saturday... I however, had heard of it and I agree, it was pretty good. And it would be sweet as hell to have those powers

With great power comes great responsibility YEM. No chance you could handle it. You'd be the guy moving cars in a parking lot instead of the hero.

We watched Final Destination 5 (free from the library thank god) and it was meh. Some of the deaths in the other movies were very awesome and creative, but in this movie it's almost like they just gave up. Bah, let's just crash her through a window. Let's have a hook drop on this guy. OK that's a wrap, drinks are on me!

I have been wondering about this one. I saw it for rent on amazon. Just haven't pulled the trigger to watch it. Worth 4 dollars?

Watched Safe House. It was okay. Alot of Bourne-ish camera action/chase scenes.
Fuck-it list: Owls, Ohio, Facebook, Red Wings.

Yeah, it's definitely worth $4 (or a dollar and change as lamby said) The fighting footage, of the real guy that Goon is based on, at the end of the movie is effin crazy


Also watched John Carter last night. It was a good movie. Pretty sweet Sci-fi action. However, they changed so much from the book.... and how the hell are you going to make Tars Tarkas some push over chump. Dude was big ass green fighting beast in the book! Woola, though, was awesome
