That's what makes it a good movie. Without all those scenes, the movie would suck horribly

Yes, I wish I could have seen the full thing so I could view it the way the makers wanted it to be seen, but I had to settle for the TV one since it was on.

I just watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It was a very good remake of the original, and Johnny Depp was amazing.

Post Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

War of the Worlds:
The opening was brilliant. (Both the Morgan Freeman Voiceover Open/Closer, and the character set-up) Surprise! Tom Cruise can actually act! I throughly enjoyed watching all of the carnage. And the basement seen where they are hiding from the tentacle was terrific. Though there were parts of the film that just sent it over the edge of horror, and into the realm of cheesiness. For some reason I just thought it was incredibly funny watching all those dead bodies float by in the river. Oh yeah, and Hush-a-by Mountain now brings a smile to my face as I think of the cheesy screams in the background.

The ending also lacks realism, (the relatives live in the one house untouched by any blood vines or destruction), and didn't feel like it had a proper payoff. Though, I must admit, the writers faced an incredible challenge adapting the book to the screen, and they did a good job, but certain plot holes were completely overlooked. (How many people do you know that could survive a 600+ foot drop in a metal cage unharmed?)

Overall though, it was an enjoyable film, I'd recommend it. B+

I saw "The Pantom of the Opera" last night on DVD, and the night before I saw a very very strange and interesting Japanese Anime called "BLAME!" Definitely do watch Phantom, its really really good.

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

Leon is __SUCH__ an awesome movie!
In the very beginning, though, one must pretend to be reverent of the movie to themselves, but by the end, you'll love it.
Very quotable and good for any kind of moviegoer, except the young 'uns.

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?

I just watched Thirteen. It has been staring at me on the blockbuster shelve for the last couple years, and I have always been to embarrassed to rent it because it had a couple of teenage girls on the cover, but I figured if I ever wanted to make real films I better just watch it.

From a visual stand point the camera work and visuals are overwhelming and pretty effective in helping to tell the story. The story and movement of the characters through the film are kinda herky-jerky and never really "get there"... it was a good movie but left me hanging.

I would recommend watching it, but don’t feel that you will come out satisfied

I watched Legally Blonde 2... let it be known that my girlfriend picked that one out. I also watched Boondock Saints for the 50th time! And Shrek 2... it was a hot (103 degrees), boring day.

I watched the 1988 Tom Hanks movie Big on TV today. It was pretty good; it had some very funny parts.
