The 4 hour, 40 minute international version of John Woo's epic Red Cliff is superior to the 2 hour, 30 minute U.S. cut.

Just watched a film called Wonderful World, with Matthew Broderick and Michael K. Wiliams (Omar from The Wire). It had potential, the heart is in the right place, but the screenplay is sort of middling and the film gets a bit too sentimental. Pretty average drama.

Watched the movie about Julia Child. It was great, Meryl was fantastic.

I still have the Invention of Lying to watch. I've had it for awhile, but just haven't been able to bring myself to put it in. Sent back Blood Diamond (loved it) and The Goonies. I'll be getting The Haunting and The Boys Are Back. Yeah, I'm getting a scary movie. Guys I talk to at a bar I go to say it's one of their favorite movies, and that it's not really that scary. We'll see about that...lol.

I just finished "The Fall"...directed by Tarsem Singh. Instantly in my top 10 movies of the last 5 or so years.
I cannot begin to describe how amazing this movie is.....not to mention the acting performance by the little girl in it. For those not in the know....Tarsem is the director of the movie "The Cell"...a decent flick with Vince Vaughn and J-Lo.... If you've seen that film...you have a good idea of what the man can do with amazing imagery. Before "The Cell"...he became famous (sort of) for directing R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion" video. Anyways.....I cant think of any other movie (besides "The Cell") with this type of imagery.....maybe The Robin Williams afterlife movie "What Dreams May Come". Maybe I would describe it as a cross between "The Cell" (imagery) and "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen". If you get a chance....check it out

True story: the filmmakers tricked the little girl into thinking that what was going on with Lee Pace was actually happening. She was only part-acting the whole time. |

Nothing about Valkerie? I am watching it now. Pretty good flick so far. Lots of build up. Of course, we all know how it ended.

Have you read the Krakauer book it was based on? It flushes out a bit more about McCandless and his different take on things.

'Cashback' is one of my top 5 favorite movies. And this is coming from a guy who only 'Goodfellas', 'The Godfather" and 'The Departed' are the few that rank above. That movie was pure brilliance. Funny, artsy, and just plain cool |
