Hi all! Did anyone watch Hit Man? I don't want to spoil but I am so confused as to what I am supposed to feel.
Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
We’re watching Lisa Frankenstein tonight. Anyone else see it?
I have seen Lisa Frankenstein, and Hit Man is my film of the year so far.
I liked LF a lot, but didn’t quite love it as much as I wanted to.
Mom invited me to go see one of those anniversary showings of Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind last night. It was nice, really brought back memories of going to see it with her and one of my cousins almost 50 years ago.
I just watched the Branagh Murder on the Orient Express. I heard mixed reviews when it came out, but after A Haunting in Venice, which I loved, I figured I’d give it a shot. I liked it a lot! Ok, there was an underwhelming live production locally, which maybe lowered my expectations. But I thought it was well done, in a thinky, rather than action-oriented, kinda way.
I've been re-watching The Mummy movies and I realized - for the O'Connell family, all roads lead to Hamunaptra (spelling?). (fyi, the Egyptians never realized that if you don't write your vowels, no one will get your name right)
We saw The Neverending Story last weekend in a movie theater with ltc. I was worried it might be too intense for her, but she loved it!
Such a wonderful classic. I'm glad she enjoyed it.
could I suggest "Babe"? It gets intense in places, but there's a happy ending. Oscar nominated. Siskal and Ebert called it the Citizen Kane of talking pig pictures.
