Prior to the dinner (within 2 days), the idiot destroys the business mans life, via a bizarre turn of events including re-initiating contact with a psychotic ex-girlfriend, driving away his long-time girlfriend and major client, and eventually costing the businessman his job.
But of course, it all works out in the end .... except you don't get your life back for watching this putrid discharge from an inflamed rectum.

All actors involved in this movie should hang their heads in shame. The movie producers and director should be subject to assisted suicide. Anyone otherwise involved in the production & distribution of this movie should be subject to public humiliation, extensive lashing and a hanging, and hopefully spend a long time in purgatory for committing this crime against mankind.

Well, did you like it or not?

I've watched a few movies in the past few days.

The Millenium Trilogy or:
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
The Girl who Played with Fire
The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest

I had seen the first one a long time back, and I think it is easily the best of the three movies in the trilogy. The lead female character is fascinating in her cold, hard opacity.

The stories drag on too long I think, and the third movie is the least engaging, but by then you really want to see the end. What she experiences hardly seems to affect her though, unless it just tempers her spirit.

**Kerry56** · 11-02-2011

An Education

Not bad. Carey Mulligan's performance makes it worth watching.

(spoiler: I wanted to find the main male character and beat the snot out of him by the middle of the movie)

**Kerry56** · 11-02-2011

Its Kind of a Funny Story
Went in not expecting too much from this movie and was pleasantly surprised. They managed to tell a story about a depressed teen and not hit every cliche in the book while doing so. This had a lot of bright, fun moments in it, which was unexpected.

**pepst** · 13-02-2011

Justice League: The New Frontier (2008) 7/10

Quote:

In the 1950s, a new generation of superheroes must join forces with the community's active veterans and a hostile US government to fight a menace to Earth.

Red.
9/10 - Funnier than a bus-full of naked clowns, one fig leaf and a rolling pin

*Warning* Do not watch if you have breathing issues, you may just die laughing

*Double warning* Take a spare pair of underpants, and a tube of super-glue ... just in case, while ROTFLYAO, you may discover that your pelvic floor is weaker than expected .... or your bum falls off ...

A retired CIA operative is hunted by the CIA due to threat of exposure over a previous, but very old, case. Bruce Willis is all serious with funny one-liners, Morgan Freeman does the Grin thing, John Malkovich wears tin foil on his head .. enough said. At some points, the humour/irony is so over the top, you just don't know what to do .... Just watch it.

A brilliant movie...kudos to Jim Jarmusch for direction, and the very Depp acting, and an awesome Neil Young contribution!

*debro* · 22-02-2011

Lord of the Rings, Trilogy - Bluray with TrueHD-Master Audio.
Woot!
10/10.

Battle Scenes in beautiful 1080p, with surround sound as orks, olyphants and mad-men get their asses kicked by a bunch of dead guys.

Harry Potter 1-6 - Bluray
Very good - overall 8/10.
Surround sound doesn't add *that* much to these movies.

**Kerry56** · 27-02-2011

Midsummer Madness...this is the strangest comedy I've seen in years. Seriously weird, though lighthearted. Most of the time I was sitting in awe, telling myself it couldn't get any cheesier, or bizarre, but I was wrong. Good luck making it through this one.

**olyteddy** · 27-02-2011

Klute. Very young looking Donald Sutherland...

**pepst** · 27-02-2011

The Usual Suspects (1995) 9/10

Quote:

A boat has been destroyed, criminals are dead, and the key to this mystery lies with the only survivor and his twisted, convoluted story beginning with five career crooks in a seemingly random police lineup.

Napoleon Dynamite (2004) 7/10

Quote:

**Kerry56** · 28-02-2011

Glorious 39, which is an unusual suspense movie, set in England at the beginnings of WWII. Romola Garai was very good in the lead role.

4.5 / 10

Alice kicks ass. Kills a mutated bad guy. Lots of bad guys come for a fight ... RE6 starts ....

Only hardcore Resident Evil / Zombie movie fans can find anything positive with this movie.

**Kerry56** · 02-03-2011

Man Push Cart
I'm not a fan of movies that have no plot line, and this one doesn't change that opinion at all. Its basically a retelling of Sisyphus in Hades, showing the endless struggle of a Pakistani immigrant in New York City, where nothing can change his life for the better. He drifts through his existence, barely scraping by, and nothing works out for him. By the end of this slice of life movie, we see him at the bottom of the hill again, about to push the rock once more.

Depressing, and not a style of moviemaking I enjoy or recommend.

**Kerry56** · 02-03-2011

The City of Lost Children I've heard many good things about this movie over the years...it has a cult following and most definitely NOT mainstream cinema. Its a surreal French fantasy, with great settings and good performances from Ron Perlman and a very young unknown French actress named Judith Vittet. Too bad she didn't continue acting...she had potential.

I get the feeling most people will not enjoy this movie, but it is not one you will forget.

I watched this one a few years ago, had mixed feelings about it also. Good but wierd.

CCRomeo · 02-03-2011

Black Swan I liked it.

*_chef_* · 02-03-2011

Leichen pflastern seinen Weg

aka

The great silence

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Silence

with the genius' Klaus Kinski.

**Kerry56** · 09-03-2011

The Next Three Days
This is a reasonably good thriller, where a man is desperate to get his falsely convicted wife out of jail. Too many convenient events to be plausible...both from the perspective of the husband and the police who stumble into the action.

And Russel Crowe wasn't even tempted by Olivia Wilde? Gimme a break!
