A few films recently watched.

due date - BigLolz|10

been a while since i went to a full cinema watch a comedie, i felt strange laughing in group lol

The social Network 7/10 quite an interesting look at how facebook came about, but its riding on the coattails of facebooks success, if this film were made when Mark Zuckerberg had died in XX years time, i doubt anyone would care

The Town - 8/10

Best heist film since Heat.

Dead Awake 2/10

Lame plot, weak acting and some downright cheesy dialog. If you thought After.life was bad avoid this one for sure.

big lolz on afterlife

Splice - 7/10, except for the end which is a 2/10. Basically stop it ten minutes from the end.

Is it wrong to think the freak was kind of hot?

enter the void - this felt life changing. i don't know why, but it was incredibly effective.

 

Was for me as well, but I think I know why....

 

primordial and archetypal are two words that come to mind,

 

other than that my interpretation shall remain mine for awhile,

 

a very personal experience...

 

need to see it a few more times...

it's an incredible movie. life affirming even. i have no desire to talk about it in any critical terms. it actually reminded me of a much, much darker, live action version of mindgame. but yeah, hands down one of the most affecting films i've seen.

Oldboy - 9/10

elsa in splice was

loved that movie as a kid, made that final bit all the more unbearable.

Lost Highway

Interesting to compare with Los Cronocrimenes. The dreamlike quality is well done.

what?? why?

is it lost highway about time travel???

cyrus 6\10

i was hoping for a stupid comedy and it ended up has a serious drama

i've seen it yesterday as well, the stupid comedy parts were actually fun, it's the drama that was very weak.

couldn't detach John C. Reilly from his recent role in step brothers, the relationship between cyrus and his mom were especially unconvincing, janah hill can't act, kind of a weak premise overall.

4/10

haha that was a weird movie, I liked it. 6/10 is fair

just got back from Danny Boyle's 127 Hours and enjoyed it immensely.

8/10

have either of you rewatched it? 4 days remaining on this torrent...

i have no idea what it will be like a second time. part of me wants to relive the first time, another is scared that it can't come close to that, and another is hopeful that i'll see more the second time.

also i had some incredible unrecognizable imagery in my dreams the night i saw it, to the point where i kept going back to sleep because i didn't want to let them go.

I have watched it twice and I think this could be one of the greatest films ever...

people who disagree probably have never had an 'eye' opening, life-affirming experience...or they have short attention spans

This film has awoken a lot of forgotten ideas and emotions within myself...

makes me feel more human

i promise i'll watch it to the cinema when it's out

looks like another one that'll need a mirezzi review

i watched it a second time tonight. it still had the same effect on me. the love hotel sequence near the end with the weird drone music underneath it, mixed with the imagery flashing between time and space, has some kind of cumulative effect on me that i can only liken to a religious experience. that looks really ridiculous in writing, but it's one of the maybe five most moving films i've seen. a lot of the stuff that people will probably just write off as either tedious or "shocking" was, for me, really beautiful. and comparing it to irreversible, a film i disliked immensely, is doing it a major disservice.

anyway, i'll be buying this when it comes out on blu ray.

as far as dreams go, i haven't noticed an effect on me. but i will say that enter the void comes closer to capturing the stew of emotions in a dream than any film i've seen since mulholland drive. maybe more so than that film. i dunno. it's just a great movie, end of.
