Thread rules:
1. Don't flame anyone because they watched a bad movie or something. If you want to discuss why a movie is bad, without getting down to name calling, then that's fine. 2. Post as much as you like. In this thread, the more movies you talk about, the more the other members will know about movies. No Spoilers though. 3. Try to give a rating for the movie you are posting about. None of this two thumbs up, or five star mess. Give a real, 1-10 scale rating.
-----------------------
The last movie I saw was Inception. Complete thrill ride. Maybe it's because I can multitask easily but I was able to follow all of the story lines. It literally had a great cast. I'm a fan of Leo because he's in so many of my favorite movies. Same with Joseph Gordon Levitt. I became a fan of his after seeing "Brick." Plus Ken Watanabe and Cillian Murphy are awesome as well (I became fans of Ken because of "The Last Samurai" and Cillian after "28 Days Later").
In the end it's a movie I would recommend to everyone. 9.5 out of 10. Literally the best movie I have seen all year and in many years.

I saw Toy Story 3 as well. I saw it in 3D, and it was really good. I was having all kinds of Nostalgic feeling. I remember seeing the first one when I was like six or seven and demanding my mom get it on VHS so I could watch it over and over. I must have ruined the film from seeing the first one so much. I was ten or eleven by the time the second one came out so I wasn't as interested as I was the first time. I still saw it though. I couldn't believe that I remembered everything so clearly when I saw Toy Story 3. I was like, "Oh, yeah! Woody likes the Sheep Girl." I don't watch films aimed towards children that much lately but I was happy to see Toy Story 3. As for the last film I saw it was: I'm a fan of Casper Van Dien, so I decided to stream it through Netflix. It wasn't the greatest movie I have seen, but it was one of the best Submarine films I have seen. Basically Casper plays Capt. Sheffield who is newly commanding the USS Lansing and he's been sent out with four Tomahawk Nukes. The ship is deployed to the ocean off the coast of North Korea. When a nuclear blast takes out the communications, Sheffield has to deal with the loss of communications and a crew that believes that the world is at war. For what it is, it does pretty well. The acting isn't A level quality, but it's a C level straight to DVD venture so I didn't expect that. A movie's job is to keep you entertained until the end credits. It did that. That's all I really ask out of a movie. I ended up giving it a 6 out of 10.

I just finished The Crazies: When a plane carrying toxic virus crash lands in the marshes outside of a local town, the towns people start to act strangely before turning fully crazy. The town's sheriff (played by Timothy Olyphant) begins to investigate the happenings and the murders that follow. Suddenly the town becomes over run with military personnel who begin to round up the people of the small town. Who is good, who is bad, who is healthy, and who is infected? This film is a "Virus Zombie"/"Military Cover Up" film. Think of what the second Resident Evil was without all the super powered video game characters. This movie is pretty good. It wasn't "scary", but I don't frighten that easily when it comes to movies. A lot of the story sounds like it could happen tomorrow and be very real. I guess that would be more scary that what actually happens in the movie. Most people will check out when a movie isn't scary, but I suggest staying until the end because it's a nice little popcorn flick. The cast was solid. Timothy Olyphant might as well just play a Sheriff/U.S. Marshall in all his movies because that's when he's at his best. That or when he's playing a villain. I would give this movie a 7 out of 10. I usually start my films at a rating of 5 and either take away or give points where needed. Here's how I graded it: 5 - Start with a five. 4 - Wasn't scary. 5 - Good cast. 6 - Believable story. 6.5 - A type of zombie was featured in this film. 7 - Kept me interested until the end. Grade: Pass / Rent / Buy (Won't be something you will want to see again, so buying it would be pointless.)

Let's start this one up again too. This time just say if you like it or not. No need to go into detail if you don't want to. Any reviews are great though as long as they don't contain spoilers. Jinx (Nick Stahl) goes to get his $20 out of a bank, but the bank says he has insufficient funds. So he goes into the bank to get his money only to find out that the bank is being robbed by Simon (Gavin Rossdale) and Jessica (Erika Christensen). He runs into the open bank vault where he and Jessica get locked in together. Now Jinx must get out of the bank that's behind held hostage by robbers, who want in the bank, but are worried about the cops now on the outside of the bank. This is an interesting take on Bank Heist films. It was a really great watch. You actually learn something while watching this. Hence the title, "How To Rob A Bank." I saw it back when it first came out and again a few nights ago. Still good.

Avatar is the last movie i watch online ,Sure, the visuals are distinctive enough but that doesn't excuse the lazy cut-and-paste job done with the script. We've seen this exact story done before numerous times before and done better. A lot of people seem to think that the visuals make up for it but in the end this film is nothing more than a tech demo at best. A real shame.After watching i download avatar to watch it again........

A pure exploitation film. Lots of boobs, and a nun going around blowing people's brains out. It's mindless fun. Ten years from now, no one will remember this film but it's a lot of fun to watch if you need to pass some time.
