Inside Job
very good expose of greed & stupidity on Wall Street & DC
Tropic Thunder
very silly

I suppose in many ways rainforests are ideal film locations. You know, if you want to wreck stuff.
Trip was awesome, but exhausting. Ziplining, cave exploring, kayaking, barefoot hiking in ankle-deep mud...that kind of thing.

Sounds great. See any a'a?

Unfortunately no, since Kauai doesn't have any active volcanoes. Unless lava rock counts. But we did see some spectacular erosion on the Na Pali coast.

I dream of seeing molten lava sometime.

Don't we all....someday.

It's all just baking soda.
The Jackal
Willis as pseudo-gay assassin & Gere as good-hearted Irish terrorist with a phony accent, make for a entertaining story. Mathilda May is hot & Jack Black is a hoot !
gkruis
I thought he was just acting gay to get to somebody.

I agree with @gkruis -- sub thought how awesome was JACK BLACK? "Hold out that pack of cigarettes for me"
Lucky Number Slevin
abit slow at times, but good ending
Smokin' Aces
good distracting entertainment !! - not to be emulated !!!!
Waiting for Superman
Excellent insights into our K-12 education system, which is struggling with tenure, over-weight administration & under-funding, but the message has to be taken in context. America still has the world's best overall education system, attracting the majority of international "study-abroad" students at the under-grad & beyond level - & most stay enhancing our WW competitiveness!!!!

Does it feature the song by the Flaming Lips?
The Green Hornet
5% redeeming content; surprisingly silly!
gkruis
Comedians making action movies. Seems to be a trend.
Life As We Know It
Very entertaining love story; one can find their "soul-mate" in many different ways!!!

Sounds like a feel good type of flick. Who's in it?

Get Low
Great acting from Robert Duvall, Bill Murray & Sissy Spacek.
Story's based on reality, but pace is a bit slow.....

Loved Bill Murray in this movie and probably Robert Duvall's best performance in a while. I was a little surprised this didn't get an Oscar nomination for acting.
gkruis
Yeah. Me too. How?

Get on it! Get rentin'!

OK!
The Secret of Kells
Rather special animated movie; helps if you believe in magic, fairies & the like.
Makes me want to visit my ancestral home of Cork, Ireland!!

Lady Antebellum - Need You Now
Love this song! It's clear why they sweeped the Grammys & won Best album for CMA and iTunes has totally revised how we buy songs; $1.29 is great value!
The Westin Seattle
Really nice 4 star hotel in downtown Seattle for $95/night.
Hotwire got me >50% off the rack rate & 40% off their best quoted rate.

127 Hours
127 is a great movie capturing the character of Aron Ralston, biker/climber extrordinaire! Excellent lead-up to the main event with squeeze & drop into the pool with the ladies! Danny Boyle's writing, production & direction is wonderful. Aron's "will to live" is incredible; drinking own pee & hacking off own arm. Aron's character reminds me of Christopher McCandless in "Into the wild" by John Krakauer.

Is this the one with James Franco in it? I heard this was really gross or violent or something... Is that right?
SteveD
The gruesome part is handled well; in reality the trapped hand became his enemy. To survive, he had no choice but to leave it behind!!
SteveD
Yes, it's James Franco; he does a great job.
SteveD
For "gkruis", Aron & Christopher share the selfish trait; as Christopher writes in hi last hours, "happiness is only real when shared" :)
gkruis
I feel like people get swept up in the story and forget it's a cautionary tale. Especially with Into the Wild.
TeaTimeWithPaul
I absolutely loved 127 Hours. Great acting and the story of survival that follows the stupidity- of not telling anyone where he was going is genius! The film isn't gross or violent. It's the story of one's will to live and Boyle and crew made an excellent adaption of Ralston's story.
Winter's Bone
Bone-chilling movie, although you have to ask " why do you need to take a chainsaw on a boating trip?" However, it's also a great commercial for NOT doing METH, drugs, whatever!!!
drpepper234
I thought this was a fake movie when I heard them talking about it on SNL. I didnt see any trailers for it.
Blood Work
Clint is the man!!! Love his directing style - hire the right people & let them do their job, ie. act! [in my case, SELL! Actually, you don't sell, you just help people to buy from you ;-) ]
