What Movie Did You Last See?

What's the last movie you saw?  Doesn't matter if it was at home or at a theater.

Last one I saw was Captain Philips.  I thought it a pretty good movie, especially since it was based on real events.

Knight and Day.

It's a casual thriller for a nice sit down at home with the wife...

300: Rise of the Empire in cinema. Dont even know if i like it or not and...and still dont know, whether i think Eva Green is hot or not. But i guess she is.

Day before that i torrented and watched The Essence of Llewyn Davis or whatever it was called, from Coen bros. It was ok and full of nice music. Not really my kind of movie, though.

Finally, Secret Life of Walter Mitty. The main character is pretty much me, an ineffectual dreamer.

Shadow People. Horror flic using fake 'real' documentary style and dramatization of that. 2 out of five stars only because I finished it in 3 sittings. Its fairly bad.

 

Also about 1/3 of the way through Russian Ark. A real documentary shot all in one take through a big russian museum(forget which). Amazing. There are historical fictional characters from each era experienced as the camera goes through the museum. The narrator is invisible. One person  can see him and they discuss the russian history and the art(french as well as others) in the museum. Its not done in a overly dramatic way, just a way to make the history more relatable to the viewer.

Forced the wife to go see the new 300 movie.  It was pretty terrible, it will be years before I get to pick another movie for us to go to.

Haven't been to a cinema in 35+ years...will likely never go again due to mobility, comfort issues, but the last movie I saw was Snow White and the Huntsman on Foxtel.  In fact, now that I have a greater variety of things to watch these days, I might just sit down and watch a few more movies and TV shows on Foxtel.... and no more waiting for some of my fave TV shows to hit free-to-air and never do: like Game of Thrones; Da Vincis Demons; Sons of Anarchy; Orphan Black; Hemlock Grove; Continuum and other stuff I've never seen that could belong in my fave group.

Just watched The Wolf of Wall Street - Very Scorsese-esque (language and debauch, etc.) but DiCaprio was fantastic, as per usual!

hemlock grove.  Oye.  I watched about 8 episodes of that.  It got way to creepy gory for me... the creepy gore never let up.  Starkers, you like hemlock Grove, so well, now I am very happy you did not adopt me.  :)  :)  :)  The affects in it are just awesome.  Making a woman missing her lower abdomen etc still seem so dead, and then 'alive.'  And kissing.  eeeeeeeeeeee    Oh, and did I mention   eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?  :)

Yeah, Hemlock Grove was a bit gory, but I saw past that to follow the storyline and plot.  There is a season 2 due to be aired in the next few weeks, and I shall be glued to it just as I was with the 1st.  Besides, it's all fantasy and never likely to happen, so it isn't quite as shocking.  What I do find disturbing and refuse to watch is movies with nut-jobs running around with chainsaws, etc.  Stuff like that does happen and is too close to reality to be entertainment, in my book.

Don't laugh............Chitty Chitty Bang Bang with my three kids last Sunday...........and everyone enjoyed it. It's nearly 50 years old and still stands the test of time.

I just watched the girl with the dragon tattoo. Good flick! Even though I saw it a few times already. What she does to the case worker I call poetic justice.

As does Mary Poppins and Blackbeard's Ghost... took her to see those as well.

Oh yeah, sat down last night and watched 'Expendables II' with Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Norris and a few other action stars.  It was okay, a few good one-liners here and there with some solid action throughout.... 7 out of 10.
