last movie i saw was The Punisher. i had huge expectations for this movie untill the reviews started comming out but i decided i would see it after all. the beginning was kinda slow and Thomas Jane didnt turn into the punisher untill almost half way through the movie. once he became the punisher and the action started up, it was pretty good. thomas jane and john travolta IMO were very good in their parts. there was one GREAT scene where the punisher is fighting a russian hitman but there were way too many corney one-liners throughout the movie. overall: 3.5/5

The last movie I saw was Troy. I already spoke about it in the Troy thread. Also last night I saw part of Resovoir Dogs with some friends. I kept falling asleep so I can't really say much about it.

The Punisher was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I only went to see it because a friend had free advanced screening passes. Horrible! The action was horrible, the plot was really bad, "The Punisher" drank so much I'm surprised he didn't die of alchol posining. They tried too hard to make the movie something it wasn't, they spent so much time on plot, and for such a dumb concept it was a waste of time. Overall: 0/5

Gee..the last movie I saw at a theatre was "X-2: X-Men United."

I just bought "Scary Movie 3" and watched it. It was good for a few laughs. Now, I just need to watch "Kill Bill Vol. 1" and "The Second Coming" and I'll have caught up on my DVDs.

I watched Equilibrium last night with some friends after my prom, I had seen it before but I still love it. It's a little-known sci-fi flick starring Christian Bale and Emily Watson that has a great, thought-provoking plot and some insane matrix-esque action. The gunfighting in this movie has to be seen to be beleived. It's not wall-to-wall action, but the action scenes really deliver when they come. The people in this movie fight using "gun-kata", a futuristic method of gunfighting that resembles martial arts, although it's use seems only to maker the action scenes really, really, cool. In my opinion it is a better film than The Matrix, with a more solid plot to hold together the action.
Most video stores have a copy of this, it didn't do much in theatres but it has found quite a following on DVD. I suggest that any sci-fi or Matrix fan should see this.

****1/2 out of *****

Scary movie 3 sucked. I give it a 2/5. It had a few funny moments, but the rest was crap.

And I just saw Troy yesterday, which I really enjoyed. The battle scenes were great.

Yeah, Matrix Revolutions was garbage, there was very little that was good in that movie. It's sad that they ruined a series that had an awesome beginning and a pretty good middle part. The last movie was just bad, a real shame.
5/10


I just seen Troy last night and thought it was great. The action, acting, how the story was adapted and presented was all great! I can't say anything bad about this movie.

9.5/10

I had trouble sleeping last night, so I put in the movie "Deep Throat". For those who haven't seen Deep Throat, it's a rather enjoyable flick. I skip to the good parts and after about 10-12 mins or so (along with a vigorous workout), I was ready for bed.

I just finished watching backdoor imports. It's an older movie from the mid-nineties, I believe. The plot isn't really good, but the action is great. The script probably could be better, but I guess it doesn't matter anyway. It's still a good movie.

The last movie I saw in theaters was Van Helsing. Didn't like the ending, but special effects were great. plot holes. most of this has been said before ... 3.5/5 stars

Before that was 13 going on 30. It was so bad that I feel asleep about ten minutes after Jennifer appeared and only woke up when Thriller played .. 0/5

Last movie in the DVD player was Love Don't Cost a Thing. I still can't get over Nick Cannon not being on Nickelodeon anymore, but it's decent enough.. 3.5/5

I thought 13 going on 30 wasn't that bad. I would give it at least a 2/5
