    Last seen... Terminator Salvation. Ugh. Didn't like it at all.

    Before that - M. Great movie! Made me think, and I loved how it lacked any Clichees of modern crime themes...

    Just watched the last episode of I, Claudius. Fantastic series, even though it's that old it lacks none of what "Rome" had to offer, and I loved Rome ;)

    I've seen Australia a while ago and I thought their attempt to touch that very same topic was pathetic compared to rabbit-proof fence.

    Last movie was "Public Enemies".

    It wasn't great but it had some good scenes and a nice soundtrack. Johnny Depp was good as alway but Christian Bale was totally replaceable, just a big name but nothing more.

    Edit: Oh wait, "Public Enemies" was the last movie I've watched in the cinemas. "Heat" was my last movie (watched it on DVD). I wanted to see it again because "Public Enemies" was so disappointing and "Heat" is, of course, much much better!

    I watched Whatever Works, the new Woody Allen. Brilliant dialogs as ever, some very funny scenes, but definitely not his best.
    I also watched Up, the new pixar movie. This is a really great movie. Some brilliant and really funny ideas.

    Need to watch it again in the original language because I think the people behind the dubbed voices were really bored or something. But apart from that the movie was great.

    an american crime,

    inspired by the same story (sylvia likens) than Jack Ketchum's the girl next door, and way better imo.
    the two main characters are just way much more insipid in the girl next door.

    Last night I watched Baraka on bluray. Saw it so long ago (15 years?) I forgot the impact it had on me, and had it for a while on BD but finally sat down to watch it. Technically its stunning, the 70mm transfer is jaw-droppingly good. Dead Can Dance sound incredible in the new DTS-MA soundtrack.

    The film/doc itself is amazing and I recommend you all watch it. no narration, just beautiful, stunning imagery from around the world, set to perfectly matched music. It does have an emotional impact on you watching it, it really drives home how diverse life is on this planet, and how much us humans are messing it all up. Awesome.

    Hm I found The Girl Next Door absolutely horrible, I didn't even watch the movie to the end. I was even more shocked when I found out these events (more or less) really happened. I had been thinking the movie was total bs, as no "normal" person would be so ignorant to the suffering of someone else, and those in the movie were all little kids, they were not bad persons. I thought it was one of the typical modern "torture-porns" as they are sometimes called.

    An American Crime is better, then?

    Yes really better ! Plus you got Ellen Page, Catherine Keener and James Franco. I did like you connectiv after watching An American Crime I went to Wikipedia just to see it it was "really" based on a true story and wow it was creepy!! ##Takes Brando's voice## The horror... the horror...

    definitely better though the trial part could have been more developed.
    and the ending of an american crime is soooo much better too.

    I really liked the dialoges in IB, especially the opening scene. Landa is my new hero:P. Some interesting camera techniques also, but i have to say, IB doesn't match up to the hype they gave it, or to Pulp fiction imho
  5.  permalink
    For me IB was totally impressive when I watched it the first time and I applaused in the end. This movie has some funny moments, very good dialogues, good music and GREAT actors. Especially Christoph Waltz, Mélanie Laurent & August Diehl.

    In my opinion it is better than "Pulp Fiction". For me IB was more attractive and I have to admit I am not a big fan of "Pulp Fiction".
