Yes, it was a borefest and a pretentious ponderous movie.

haha, i had the same problem, so i just pointed the movie name on his computer

Try watching Donnie Darko now and you'll find Butterfly Effect pales in comparison. But it's a good show though.

weak and non existence? are you kidding me? There Will Be Blood is undoubtedly one of the best films of 2007.

The ones you mentioned in bold. You nailed it right. Can't believe after all that's been said by yourself, you still claim the plot was weak

JFK

Fantastic film. I've not seen a movie like this, absolute brilliance.

True, but the editing and the constant 3 hour mysterious thrill was sure exhilarating.

What's so mysterious? The ultimate question of "Who killed JFK lah"

Haha, how can JFK not have any effect on your emotions? It was bloody thought provoking.

Yes, but is it the truth? That's the trick.

hot hot discussion in 2 threads

watz WLM?

forgive my ignorance, thank goodness i don't use it.

Man On Fire. Was good from the start but it went downhill midway and a poorly written ending summed up an average flick.

Citizen Kane, accompanied with commentary from Roger Ebert. Totally awesome experience, that guy really knows his stuff.

I have his commentary of Casablanca but haven't really got the time to run thru it. Will do soon. I'm amazed by Ebert.

Mine was actually Paris Je' Taime. Hope to find the DVD around soon.

Love Actually. I actually bought the DVD bcz of recommendations from my friends who mentioned that it is more than a chick flick, very meaningful and I decided to give it a try.

I must admit that it does feature a stellar cast (Neeson, Linney, Grant, etc) and meaningful, especially if watched during Christmas, but it might be pretty harsh should I compare this to the heavyweights of Crash, Babel (who are almost in the same parallel-lives genre) but Love Actually pales in comparison.

At least it didn't satisfy my Unholy Trinity of C's - corny, cheesy, cliche. Love Actually was corny at the right moment and was close to being cheesy but definitely cliche. Most of the scenes were rather predictable and I know that is how it's supposed to work for a holiday flick like this but they could have done it more un-cliche-ish.

The scenes were finely put together, just not solid enough. And some of the scenes were totally predictable, it kinda got bored midway. The Colin adventure to the US was a stupid scene, although it had Elisha Cuthbert in it Totally unnecessary.

It's not an easy film to pull off anyway but it did just fine for me, nothing to shout about.

3/5

The Fly in Blu-Ray. Fantastic quality, and a good film.

Bet you had the same sentiments with your 1st viewing of LMS
