Anyone seen a good movie lately?

Hard Candy:

Well acted and pretty enjoyable, but the overall ridiculousness and fact that it was so absolutely far-fetched really hurt the overall movie IMO. I understand the premise and what they were trying to show, but man at least make it somewhat believable. Ellen Page is like the tiniest actress out there.

I hated Junebug but the ladyfriend liked it. Boring tripe and the lead actress needed to be shot in the face. Amy Adams was good though.

Tripe is nasty

Weisz's win was a make-up call for not being nominated for Constantine.

I tell people all the time that I recognize that it isn't a good movie but I like it anyway.

The truth is that I do think it's a good movie and I love it.

Weisz won for being a legitimate actress but showing her boobs anyway.

finger banging yourself > showing boobies

PoopyfaceMcGee · February 11, 2009, 02:44:06 PM

Wait, are you saying that there is an Amy Adams fingerbanging scene in "Junebug?"

Maggie Gyllenhaal was robbed for her role in Secretary, too.
