It was a negative -10 out of 10, I am sure some people liked it and will disagree with my opinion, but I really did not enjoy anything about that movie.

Nice.
I've got your gmail addy, I'll email you there so we can keep in touch. I'm gonna freeze my account here again - after reading about Admiral being driven off the site because of idiot users contacting his workplace trying to get him fired, this community isn't the kind I'm really interested in any longer. Seems the bad seeds rule the roost, and it just ain't cool.

I can understand not liking the movie for a variety of reasons, but I can't believe anyone would actually think the acting was bad. It was a dark movie, with a slow story, and it was quite depressing, but the acting overall was outstanding IMO. I thought the movie was amazing though .

Revolutionary Road - 4/10.
I was expecting better from this after all the praise and good reviews. The acting was fine, but the movie just...well it felt both boring and like it dragged on for me, I didn't even feel like going through it after 45 minutes. It wasn't that the story didn't interest me rather just the writing, the mood, it seemed just underwhelming to me and like things that have been done better in other family breakdown films.
This is coming from someone who likes Bergman films, (IE Fanny and Alexander director's cut - 312minutes).

really? just make sure I am thinking of the same movie, its the one where Bruce Willis never gets sick and hes a security guard, and Samuel L is the villain who they call mister glass?
that movie was horrible.

I hated unbreakable the first time I saw it, but then I went back and watched it and actually enjoyed it very much.
Had it done better, it was suppose to be a trilogy with Bruce Willis like a superhero of sorts. I think that would have been pretty cool

Unbreakable is the Bomb! Bruce and Samuel rocket it hard. I kinda like the M. Night movies, I still think the last one is pretty good. Least favorite is Lady in the Water.
Lady in the Water and THE HAPPENING (fudge Mark Wahlberg) are his worse, but alteast The Happening was a lil more interesting.....Everything else he makes.....BRILLIANT. But M. Night is hit or miss. People hate The Village and SIGNS....I love 'em.
CRANK 2 HIGH VOLTAGE -- First watch (I was a little torn. It was clearly a parody of itself, but a highly deserving pardoy obviously. The first one lacked in the number in bewbs, but not necessarily the quality. This one more than made uyp for the quantity but the wuality was questionable. Explosions were nearly non-0mentgionable, but the fudging electrical exploisions dog, they might be alright. Still lacking but decenet maybe. Gun fights? In spades ninjas. Sex om public places no increase but remained the same. Not quite the 3 hours of action in 90 minutes the first film captured, but and adequate representation of that without actually doing it. 13/9, not quite on par with the first and not a stand alone, but certainly an adequate partner piece. I really wanna give amty smart a good dicking.
Fast and Furios -- Quality wise below 3. Campiness wise below 1. Felt like the redheaded step child of 2 without tyrese gibson. seriously, what was his deal? fudging paul walker and tyrese gibson? yeah, i totally want to own that. where the fudge is the big daddy diesel? oh, thats right, a fudging bit part in 3 and a quasi feature part in 3 and an almost lead in 4? fudge that crap. fudge you vin diesle. i would never have gone gay for you, just laughed at your lame assness, now its just concreted. fudging make out with paul already you ice cream man.
Breaking Bad season 1 -- Never has a series so captivated m e within 1 minute. Seriously. 10/10 for first minute alone. Bryan Cranston is fudging awesome. If Weeds was good, Breaking Bad is excellent. Really cant think of any negative to say other than lack of hardcore sex including nudity, language, explosions. As close to basic cable perfection as I can remember seeing. Its like the shield only without over using the word "crap" to make you seem edgy. fudge you vic mackey,. theres a new man in town. 100/1
Breaking Bad season 2 -- Im sure if I had the time between them to think about it, it would come on like a raging hard on, but near marathoning it, felt a little lacking to season 1. Still incredible tv, without a doubt, but not quite the perfection of the first season. 10/10 for season 2.
Mad Men season 1 -- Almost felt right, just didnt really love anyone. Every character is close to perfect, just missing that little extra to make me really care about them. And Christina Hendricks not making me want to pay all of my worldly possesssions for one night with her is a travesty. Doesnt look bad or anything, but her character from firefly was ungodly hot, in mad men it just kind of fits in with the show. I suppose thats good in a way, but wheres my masturbatory fantasies? Fudge that. 9/10
Mad Men season 2 -- A little let down from season 1. The who crap hittig the fan felt out of aplce since i didnt care about anyone. Still good and captivating television, just not quite cant miss. 8/10.
Chad, how did you feel about the breaking bad finale?
I'm kinda pissed they led us to believe something big was going to happen all season long. After getting over being tricked, I did think the symbolism for how not only is Walt changing for the bad, and also how everything is falling apart around him was brilliant. Still, they could have done that without teasing us all season long.
Yes, if you saw the titles. But even if you figured out it was a plane crash, which besides the titles, had no way of knowing, the way they showed it made it seem like it would be related much more to Walt. Besides some symbolism, it had nothing to do with him or really the main story.
My Beautiful Girl Mari - 8/10 - This movie was a somewhat surreal, and the plot was not really existent. However, it kept me interested in the characters.
Origin: Spirits of the Past - 6/10 - This one was quite environmentally preachy, though not as heavy-handed as some (such as Arjuna). I also liked the character designs, so that helped a little. However, it really wasn't that great of a show. If you like post-apocalyptic anime, then you may be interested in this one, but otherwise it's likely not worth your time.
i was kind of mixed on teh BB season finale. i was hoping for a real crap storm. overall i really like where it is going that walt is doing this for his family, but because he is doing it he lost his family, and he cant get them back wtihout telling them, but if he tells them he will probably lose them forever.
Reign Over Me - 8/10 - Sandler really did a good job of playing a solemn and sobering role. Don Cheadle was great as always, and the movie ended on a high note after pulling the audience through a man's tragic story.
I really enjoyed Reign Over Me. It was a nice surprise.
I did not, however, enjoy Rachel Getting Married. Tried to watch it last week, and lost all interest after an hour. Didn't give a crap about Rachel, or anyone else for that matter.
I really want to see that movie, but I have to wait until its out on DVD which sucks, the closest movie theater to me is a almost a 3 hour drive, so by the time I go, and get back, a $10 movie is now around $20 so its kinda pointless.

3 hour drive? Damn, I live in a fairly rural area myself and there's a theater in my little town and a good one just 30 minutes away. You must really live out in the sticks :p.
yeah, Its like 2 hours and 45 minutes to 3 hours depending on how many sheriffs are on the roads.
I have one that is only 50 or so minutes away, but its a small family owned thing that only shows one movie at a time, and its normally a kids movie, or something from 4 years ago.
Last week they showed Toy Story all week, this week they have Kung Fu Panda.
I like living in a small farming community sometimes, but this is one of those things that makes you miss a big city (no amenities)

I have no hard time believing UP is an amazing movie... and I was actually one of the few that liked Da Vinci Code, and I'm a fan of Hanks and director Ron Howard.... but I haven't watched either and can still say with all enthusiasm that Hangover is the one to go see especially if its with a lucky lady friend
It still amazes me how Pixar can just come out with hit after hit after hit, they have got to have hands down some of the best people working for them In the movie industry.
