Just finished watching redcliff part 2, Im still amazed by it all.
I actually forgive John Woo for making Windtalkers after this movie This movie is amazing. i picked part I up at blockbuster and watched it at work. I had part 2 but realized I had to watch it on blu ray. This is the best movie in Ive seen in years, just oozes with epicness. I dont want to give anything away, but its a must watch

Anyone who has played a Dynasty Warriors or Romance of the Three Kingdoms game has to watch Red Cliff. Its totally a movie about (and setting up/contextualizing) the Battle of Chi Bi. |

Just watched last night "The Lovely Bones", this may not be for everyone. I immediately thought of Donnie Darko, it had the same style, sounds, erie effects, you name it, it was there. If you liked Donnie Darko and have a great sound system, then rent this film.
TLB is a murder mystery but without the who dunit, what it has is great visual and audio effects and a superb job by Stanley Tucci as the killer, not something I'm giving away. The victim in the movie provides the voice over and tells you from the beginning what happens to herself. You may of seen Stanley as Meryl Streep's assistant in The Devil Wear Prada or as her husband in Julie and Julian, but you might not even recognize him in this one and he was nominated for best supporting actor. The film was directed by Peter Jackson. I've never seen any of the Lord of the Rings but did enjoy King Kong and District 9, so you can be aware that he doesn't just tell a story simply. BTW, great older film I saw for the second time the other night. "Requeim for a Dream" from 2000 on HDNET. What really caught me this time was the soundtrack, yes it's great and really fits the story but it also reminded me a lot of the soundtrack that won an oscar a couple of years ago. I think it was the rap movie with Terrance Howard, I believe they stole their music from the Requiem soundtrack. |

Clint Mansell is an amazing composer. Requiem is awesome but I think The Fountain goes above and beyond it.
And I have issues with TLB but not for what you're thinking. In fact, maybe I should write up my thoughts at some point.

Finally got around to seeing Law Abiding Citizen and thought it was a good movie,a bit unbelieveable but quite entertaining nonetheless.

As for me when it comes to revenge movies I'll still take the old time badassery of Rolling Thunder.
