Saw Gangster Squad on Redbox tonight. Epic! Great movie!

Machine Gun Preacher

It sure was! As much as I hate Sean Penn, I can't say he did a bad job in that movie. And Brolin was awesome, as always.

Who's sen the "new" Evil Dead? The original was a classic. I don't want to drop $6 for a disappointment (again).

Watched "The Purge" yesterday. Not too bad for a future thriller.

So glad I didn't go see the latest die hard in the theater.

$.32 from redbox on blu-ray and I'm fairly certain I over paid.

Watched Savages tonight. That is the one where the US pot growers go up against the main Mexican cartel. I thought it was a pretty good movie.

Saw The Wolverine and Pacific Rim last night.

The Wolverine was a great addition to the X-men/Marvel universe. A little grittier this time, a little more edge, and toned down appropriately while still being over the top in a super hero movie fashion.

I absolutely LOVED Pacific Rim. Michael Bay had to have crapped his pants when he saw it. Great cast of lesser known folks, and they kept the proper scope so as not to quite lose the OO and AH factor as the movie carried on.


Oblivion was a decent Sci-Fi flick but fairly predictable. Good visuals.

Hangover 3 was less a comedy and more a dark action movie that just sort of wrapped everything up.

Watched a LOT of movies lately.

I had zero desire to see Pacific Rim, and am surprised to hear it was good.

I also heard that The Conjuring was a very scary movie.

Same here on both counts. The Conjuring is supposed to actually be scary and not all that gory at all. Most "horror" movies are just funny to me.

I saw "Stranded" last night. Another super-dud. Just boring as hell.

Just watched this last night- not sure if I'd say not bad, but it definitely was most certainly not good. I would say meh. I didn't love it, didn't hate it, but thinking 'what would I do in this situation?' and Mr. Hawke and Family didn't come close to what I would do. YMMV.
