Samurai I: Musashi Miyamoto 7/10

watched the criterion edition where the translation is
suprisingly awful. tremendous use of colours. i don't know
if george lucas saw this before making the original star
wars trilogy, but the bit with the old woman and her house
was basically the scene with yoda on dagobah, bubbling swamp
and all.

Well I'm glad you like Brief Encounter: if challenged, I was
gonna use it.

hot fuzz - 3.7/5 - what the hell? what happens at the end?
they kind of lost the plot? it's all good though. great
film! i always love seeing Steve Coogans face, even for such
short moments. he does the cop face brilliantly. stole the
show completely <3

Brief encounter is THE best British film i've seen!

watched the Fifth Element the other day for the first time
in years, not as good as the first time i watched it but
still a fun film. Stupid plot but makes up for it in other
areas. 3.5/5

Voices of a Distant Star 4.5/5

The Bourne Identity 5/5- somehow, I'd never seen a Bourne
movie. It was an awesome way to burn two hours and I'm glad
there's two more to watch

Heard them talking about it here on Lzy_NIN. I'll
have to check it out, just watched the other videos last
night as well. The Rock AM festival in Germany sounded like
a joke..........

The Deep- Nick Nolte achieved the ultimate porn star look in
this underwater Peter Benchley thriller. I think I even saw
the head of his penis poking out out of his hotpants during
one intense swimming scene.

King of Kong - 4/5

It makes me never want to play Donkey Kong again. I was
always terrible at this game and now I know why. I can't
even operate the touch screen at the grocery store
correctly. I am a jerk.

The Fountain.

Solid arthouse sci-fi romance that spans a thousand years.

Sounds droll but is worth it. No highs or lows... just a
cerebral moment.

^^^ pantalaimon : Your avatar is a god to me. Superbad's
quite ok... I was wincing thinking about it but it's quite
alright.

Best last two films I've seen (in order... and I've seen a
fair few) :

Bourne Ultimatum, and Batman Begins... (all alliteration
aside).

^^^ J198 : The Fountain's great. I haven't seen it play
here (australia) or heard anyone else talk about it. It's
one of those films that may become cult status in years to
come. Flatline but wonderful.

Dead Zone (1983, David Cronenberg) - 4/5. sometimes it is
fun to watch a shitty wooden movie where it is easy to
understand it is all being set up and even the car crash is
made of paper and it is not possible to lay in coma for 5
yearz after hitting a hollow paper shit with that side of
the car where there is nobody sitting.

Wooden movies are better than plastic movies widespread
nowadays.

Du levande.

If you have a chance to go see this, do it. Directed by Roy
Andersson, the english title is 'You, the living'.

Anyone in Sweden, if you've seen the Felix ketchup
commercials with the dad in the kitchen, you know what to
expect. The whole movie looks like this and although it's a
bit dark, there are some really funny scenes in it.

Betyg 4/5. (Estetik 5/5).

re: the fountain. it had some really cool moments. but all
that, oh lizzy...lizzy...my poor lizzy crap was just lame in
some places, they failed to make me feel it, it seemed put
on (don't get me wrong, i'm all for sentimental). it kind of
got a bit hollywood, i suppose, in a bad way. the zenlike
afterlife idea was very nice. i can relate with that idea.
