Anyone seen a good movie lately?

Prince of the City -  9/10  great older flick.  Treat Williams is awesome in this one.
Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus - 3/10  possibly the strangest movie I have seen in some time.  Felt creepy just watching it.
Straw Dogs- 7/10   Dustin Hoffman gets nutty.  One of the better taglines "The knock at the door meant the birth of one man and the death of seven others!" ha.

The Omen - not all I was expecting. for the time maybe gets a 3/5.

The original? Because that one is great. Really quality shtein.

Lee Grant was hot in The Omen. 

The original is a 5/5.  The remake wasn't as good but it wasn't bad.  More like the 3/5 mussa's talking about.

I saw the Wicker Man over the weekend & give it 2/5.

The best part was Lee Lee Sobieski getting side-kicked in the chest & some Kathy Bates look-a-like getting knocked out by a roundhouse from Nicholas Cage. The worst part was the rest of the movie.

Yes. The original. Honestly didn't think it was that great. I was expecting like some Amittyville or Exorcist type movie. Like crazy possessed little dude. I guess the later two being based on true stories helps with the scare factor alittle more.

What makes it 5/5 in your opinions?

[rjs246]

I thought Amittyville was hideously overrated. Still scary, but not the freakout that people give it credit for.

What makes it 5/5 in your opinions?

The usual stuff... the acting, the script, the pacing of the movie, the music...  overall it was scary as shtein when it came out (I was just a kid but I do remember seeing it on cable when it was first released there).

Gregory Peck is excellent too.

PS: I made a mistake earlier.  I meant Lee Remick, not Lee Grant.  Lee Grant was in Damien II.

What makes it 5/5 in your opinions?

What Rome said. Peck is outstanding. The child isn't annoying as most child actors are. An excellent script, blah blah blah...

Turistas 2/5

Pursuit of Happyness - 5/5

I loved this movie. Will Smith and his son were great in it and I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Is it an all-timer? No. But I give it a 5 because I thought it was very good.

Stick to the sports journalism, hombre.

I take it you didn't like the movie?
