Re: Movies Watched Recently

The whole concept of the movie is pretty imaginative....I just recently watched all 3 in a row....I love the boxed set because it give the original that green tint when they are hacked in, which the original didnt have.

Enchanted - a little dorky, but super cute.
Dan in Real Life - Funny, but not phenomenal.

Re: Movies Watched Recently
Atonement: Eh. I didn't hate it, but I didn't like it. I think the movie was too deep for some people to understand. My friends hated it (but some of them didn't understand it  ). Its a movie I wouldn't recommend, but if someone told me they wanted to see it, I wouldn't really stop them.
Borne Identity - I HAVE NOT SEEN IT. I want to see Borne Ultimatum, but I need to see Identity and Supremacy first. I'm going to watch BI tonight, iA.

I saw that on the flight to Denver. I wasn't impressed - more disappointed actually. Steve Carell is so funny, but that movie just lacked.

Re: Movies Watched Recently
I've just realized why I love Pride and Prejudice 
Jane Austen has a way with telling stories

Re: Movies Watched Recently
I was forced to watch "Shahenshah" this weekend. One of my cousins made me. Lord, was it ever bad. Why do all of Amitabh's movies from 1985 onward completely blow? This one was even worse than "Hum."

My mind still can't fully wrap itself around how terrible it was. It was the stupidest and most thoroughly absurd movie I've ever seen. Why wouldn't it occur to Kader Khan (I think it was him who played the dad, Inspector Vrivstaivasia or some Hindu name) to tell the "CID" or whatever that there must be another briefcase somewhere on the premises? I mean it's a freaking tiny hotel room, and she had maybe 10 seconds to hide it. But I guess then none of the ensuing, even greater absurdities would have been able to occur, and there would've been no movie.
I never thought a movie that had both Amitabh AND Pran in it could be so horrible.
Meenaxi had the goods. Dunno why she didn't act more. Her clothing was awful, though. Besharam. I guess that was back before they felt comfortable showing cleavage, so they made up for it by showing leg.
The girl who played Amitabh's "bhen" in the film was the mom in Sarkar. Time does take it's toll..
