Took the wife to see Monuments Men last night. Enjoyed it a lot. Not your typical war flick by any means but it really is not meant to be. Interesting look at a piece of history, based on a true story.

Yes. It was stupid. The obvious liberal message was annoying.

This. They completely skipped over a majority of Ender's development.

Saw Place Beyond the Pines. Truly one of the best movies I have seen in years.

Seriously?

It was alright. About forty minutes too long.

Oldboy. Strong meh. I was expecting better based on the reviews on here.

Like Bale did for "The Machinist."


Bale and Daniel Day Lewis are the best two actors at this time IMO.

He's a very good actor no question he will get an Oscar one day.

I don't get this. How is it an obvious liberal message? OSC, the author of the book, is a fairly conservative Mormon.

Leo is skilled, but he suffers from 'Hey! That's Tom Cruise' disease.

Not his fault.

OTOH, I sat through the entirety of The Fighter, and didn't so much as think of Bruce Wayne, let alone Christian Bale.

Bale is pretty amazing at transforming himself. My wife is always the one saying "hey, isn't that so and so from XXXXX" and it took her about 10 minutes in American Hustle to recognize Bale.

I mean christ, she recognized Jerod Leto in Dallas Buyers Club, and I totally forgot he even existed.

Just watched Reasonable Doubt. I give it a C-.

Excellent, but even then... completely overrated... Bale, DDL, Joaquin Phoenix, I'd cast any of those three before Leo... and not necessarily in that order.

Leo gets more attention than he deserves due to his sex appeal with women and Scorseses undying devotion.

He's better than the overrated Depp, but not better than the mentioned three.

Tested out my new 3D projector with Thor the Dark World Saturday. Good flick. I just wish Loki was in it more.
