Jumper 2/5.
Enjoyable and all that, but it would have been so much better if the protagonist didn't have an nemesis, at all. Why couldn't they have let it be a love story, with a sci-fi-setting, instead? The whole idea of "jumping" had enough substance to provide a context for the whole film, in my opinion, without a "bad guy", just for the sake of it (or some cgi-action).
"Jumping" acts as metaphor of an anomaly within a system (society), that, as such, cannot be controlled. They could put him in jail, sure, but what would be the point with that?
Aaargh, don't you hate it when great potential's gone to waste?

but at least you got to see Monica Bellucci, but i guess thats why it gets 0.5 and not 0 ;)
Rambo 2.5/5
I was expecting something beter from this one, Rambo should have had more action than standing on the jeep with that heavy machine gun killing everything in sight. Some of it was fun though and wasn't a bad way to spend 90 mins.

Zeitgeist 8/10
A masterfully edited, surprisingly smooth documentary - and even though there was very little new information in it for me, all the three main areas were handled well and, if anything, it managed to be relatively concise despite its "catch-all" reach.
My main problem with documentaries such as this is that fail to be critical of the critics themselves: the assumption is that somewhere behind the web of lies there is some Truth to be had, and if we just listen to the right people, we'll reach this Truth. I doubt it. But listen to the message and make up your mind on your own!
If approached with a skeptical perspective, this documentary is a good primer on many important issues of our times.

the thing i like about that documentary is the powerful sense of genuine concern and conviction, which really makes you consider hard what is being said

yes, conviction and powerful emotional appeal (in more honest times, it was called propaganda value). Also, I happen to respect many of the people quoted and referenced therein, and even the music was pretty good. Hey, simply a nice package!

yep, liked it, really did, only marred by some believability issues, but full of fantastic (if theatric) performances and a memorable story arch... and an escalation of tension all the way to the end.

not sure if you're joking, but here's the imdb link. it's the greatest silent film ever made, one of the very rare instances of cinema becoming true art, and will haunt me for the rest of my life.

It's a great film though, made even better by the fact that it's completely silent and works so well with no sound no music no nothing. Yay silence.

Diary of the Dead - 3.5/5
Social commentary was a bit heavy handed and pretty bad acting, apart from that pretty good.
Seen a trailer for a Spanish horror film [Rec] which looked really good!

I mean the 105 min version, I'm not sure how much of a difference there is to the Grindhouse version, like 10 minutes or something.

Just wanted to chime in and say that the Passion of Joan of Arc may well be the greatest movie ever made.
Or at least the most emotional movie every made.
Congratulations on your good choice.
