Ken of Kentropolis 0 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I watched Earthquake last night, a disaster movie from the 70s complete with cheesy acting and effects. It was quite compelling for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I watched a bit of some movie called God of Guns or something with Nicholas Cage. It was rubbish. I should have known..... Nicholas Cage was in it! Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't seen that and don't claim to be a film critic or anything but I tend to agree with you muikabochi, every single Nicholas Cage film I have seen, I have disliked.

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Isn't that the Japanese alter-ego of the Hollywood movie Lord of War? Nicholas Cage is an arms dealer and embarks on a 2hr story of....erm...selling arms? *yawn* Nic Cage movies suck Link to post Share on other sites

Leaving Las Vegas was pretty good. National Treasure was pretty educational The Rock was good with a rockin soundtrack Honeymoon in Vegas was hilarious.

spook 0 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 nicholas cage does some of the worst schlock you could ever imagine dumb action movies have their place, but he seems to relish corny roles in movies like con air, the rock, ghost rider, the windtalkers, face off, gone in 60 seconds etc. i would watch these movies on a plane, but i don't think you could regard any of them as good. anyone who saw ghost rider would have to agree that it's one of the corniest movies of all time. and as an action movie hero he is quite an odd choice - he looks goofy and is balding, but he seems to be a big box-office draw. but then he's done some fantastic stuff like adaptation. that's one of my fave films and it stunned me that nicholas cage could play a role that didn't involve big guns and tits i actually thought lord of war was quite good Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 I don't look at it so critically. "Are you entertained?" "Are you entertained?" :Maximus. That's all I'm after. Link to post Share on other sites

Tubby Beaver 209 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Yeah BoC, The Rock was a decent action movie, but Nicholas Cage is still shit in it. For Lord of war, I wasn't entertained Gone in 60 secs, see above Con Air, still wiping the cheese of my DVD player Face Off, ditto Link to post Share on other sites

That's all I'm after. sometimes it's good to be challenged. you can be entertained on different levels. yep, i'll watch action movies and drinks beers and have a laugh. just because i find them vaguely entertaining doesn't make them good. and other times i like to watch something smart, interesting or different. but just because it tries to be smart, entertaining or different doesn't mean it's any good either i'm not a film snob though. i like being entertained. i'd rather sit through a goofball comedy than a black and white arthouse film i just reckon most nick cage movies are shite Link to post Share on other sites
miller 1 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I enjoyed Mystic River. And I also recently watched Karate Kid, which was a laugh. Link to post Share on other sites
berryberrycold 0 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 That was a good one (Mystic River, that is!) Watched Saw III the other day. Gruesome. I believe there's a Saw IV now... Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I really liked The Lake House, yes Keanu Reaves sucks as an actor, but, even with all the cheeze oooozing out, I still liked it.

Kumapix 0 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 watched quentin tarrantino's latest 'Death Proof' last night. woah. totally weird and gruesome and boring in parts but with a great ending. Tonight I might try to watch the bourne ultimatum but I'll prob be too busy packing for Hakuba Link to post Share on other sites
kokodoko 67 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 There is a new Coen Brothers film out. I saw the shorts the other night. It looked very gruesome. "No Country For Old Men" is the title. It was a bit like that minnesota film(fargo) but more edgier. the coen brothers rock. Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 the coen brothers do rock. the big lebowski is an all time fave of mine there's a new wes anderson movie out in a few weeks called the darjeeling limited. i'm looking forward to that one Link to post Share on other sites
kokodoko 67 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 the big lebowski was fantastic. And Oh Brother. I saw the stage show of the music in Nashville on a DVD. Really traditional bluegrass. top stuff. I do not know wes anderson. but i have heard of the darjeeling thingie. I might go and have a look. Link to post Share on other sites
spook 0 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 wes anderson also directed rushmore, the royal tenenbaums and the life aquatic. all of which are amongst my favourite movies, but the life aquatic is just awesome. if you liked the big lebowski, you must have good taste, so check out the life aquatic. very funny, very sharp and quirky indie cool Link to post Share on other sites
