Just watched "The International"... What a bad movie. I'd give 4.5/10.

freitasm: Just watched "The International"... What a bad movie. I'd give 4.5/10. It took me two goes to watch that, the first time i tried with the other half, she was falling asleep within the first 30 minutes. I gave it another shot on saturday morning while she was at work, i didnt think it was too bad, its one of those movies you have to give 100% too or you lose whats going on. The ending is a bit of a huh? moment but none the less, i quite enjoyed it in the end and would give it a 6.5/10

agreed " the hangover " was great .. think it will be another 'super troopers' type move , as in we will be doing quotes from it for years to come. "not at the table little carlos" - Alan.

Watched Street Kings. A 6 out of 10, because although the idea was good, it was a bit dull. "Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." - Doc Emmet Brown It's-a meee, Mah-rio!

gran torino. not fast paced nor action packed. i wonder if clint eastwood is really slowing down that much in real life! liked the idea of the show tho'. you really feel you're in the neighbourhood - and really want those idiots to suffer a horrible death! i wont reveal what happens to those idiots tho' otherwise that's called a spoiler.

Went to the cinema to watch The Proposal. An ok, light, romantic comedy. I'd give it 6/10.

Yeah, I thought Gran Tornio was pretty good too.. Just watched Changeling (also directed by Clint Eastwood) - it was awesome!

freitasm: Went to the cinema to watch The Proposal. An ok, light, romantic comedy. I'd give it 6/10. I also watched the Proposal in the weekend. I enjoyed it. Nothing flash but I thought the main guy had some good humour moments. I could not watch the stripper scene, really bad. I decided to go to the Gold Class in Albany Sky City Cimenas as a treat for my wife, will not do that again. The food was terrible, and I did not like being distracted through the movie by the waiters. Way over priced for what you get.
