this movie also got 80% from rotten tomatoes. so, if  u like romantic comedy, it shoud be good.
talking of ratings, how do people go about deciding which movie to watch?
i usually look at rotten tomatoes, will consider if >60%, more so if the genre is what i like.
if a movie belongs to a running franchise like transformers, x-men or jason bourne, lower rm rating doesnt matter!
i usually do not read much into imdb ratings as i find it too generous.

how do you guys go about it?

I rely mostly on IMDB, ratings 6 and above, plus the user reviews.
But for Asian movies, I go for higher ratings because the ratings for such movies are generally over-rated.

My wife sleeps through most of the movies in our cosy home theatre. This French movie is one of the few this year that managed to keep her awake through out the entire movie. It is that good.

i robot is definitely one of the best syfy movies ever made.

three laws of robotics or asimov's laws... isaac asimov 1942:

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
Meanwhile, in Automata, the Robot Protocols are:
1) a robot cannot harm any form of life,
2) a robot cannot alter itself or others.

i m not much into drama but this one is good, recommended.

boyhood is a coming-of-age drama movie, supposedly filmed over 12 years with the same actors/actresses. as the title suggests, it is about kids growing up, not always in the most favorable environment and circumstances. very realistic, well portrayed. young adults and parents alike should like it. stars ethan hawke. 2hr 45min. 4/5.

A very unique film indeed. See the cast age by 12 years from the beginning to the end of the movie.

Ethan Hawke was in his "Before" trilogy of couse, Before Sunrise (1994), Before Sunset (2004) and Before Midnight (2013) over a span of almost 20 years.

The other movie that comes to mind naturally is the Harry Potters over 7 years.

This Korean movie is really good - humorous, good sound effect, good acting. Haven't laugh like this for a long while. 4/5, I think.

Watched Spooks last night, I would rate it at 3.5/5.

In the opening scene, the convoy transfering a terrorist was stuck in a traffic jam, being attacked, and the terrorist escaped. This will not happen in Malaysia.

Even common criminals when being transferred from Sungai Buloh Prison to the court in the morning are escorted by outriders, never get stuck in traffic jam.

Baahubali: The Beginning (2015)

Well, I am not Tamil/Hindi Film connoisseur, and have to add, this is... a fun movie.

Having NOT watch to many Tamil/Hindi movie, I am not familiar with their beats, and the "surprises" were entertaining!!

Anushka Shetty is DROP DEAD GORGEOUS.

The CGI effects are good.

Note that this is a two parter, so if you (like me) want to know the ending... you have to wait until next year!

Being the most expensive Tamil/Hindi movie, well... it shows.

If you are like me, not familiar to Tamil/Hindi movie, this is an interesting change of cup of tea!!

For those who are familiar with Tamil/Hindi movie, well, chances are you have already seen this!!

It is neither Tamil nor Hindi, it is a Telugu movie.
But you and I can't tell the difference anyway.

I won't reveal anything, but Remember (2015) is the best and most captivating movie I have watched in a very long while. Go watch it.

Aiyo, so much happenings here while I was away.
I was away from here because the bulb in my projector exploded a week ago, not watching movie for a week now.
And this time around, I will try to save some money by changing the bulb myself instead of sending it to Vismart. Still waiting for the delivery of the bare bulb.
