Recent Movie Rentals

[Buccaneer]

I watched The Departed and School for Scoundrels. Both were good. The Departed features an all-star cast of Leo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson and Mark Wahlberg. It also features Martin Sheen and Alec Baldwin.

School for Scoundrels stars Billy Bob Thornton and Napoleon Dynamite.

[pirate44]

i thought the Departed was good, up till the final scene. classic Scorsese, but unimaginitive none-the-less.

[Adidas410s]

I'm glad the Departed is finally out to rent...I'll probably check it out next weekend.

[pirate4state]

Watching The Departed tonight. Can't wait! :D

I finally bought a new VHS/DVD Recorder for my living room after about 2 weeks with no rentals. So guys and gals, what's good out there because I plan on renting a couple of goodins this weekend.

[Buccaneer]

Last week I saw Flags of our Fathers, The Grudge2, Running with Scissors, Rx, Coastlines and Sawlll. I enjoyed the Grudge2 and Flags. Unknown is also a good rent.

[BIG BLUE DEFENSIVE END]

The Departed is the single greatest movie of all time. I loved it.

Running with Scissors is something else. If it wasn't a true story it would be unbelievable. It had some very funny moments but not enough because it wasn't a very funny story. The shrine scene makes it worth watching.

The Guardian....Thought it was pretty good
Facing the Giants...Horrible acting but wonderful message

[Blastoderm55]

What about Mark Wahlberg? I don't think he had a straight line in the movie. He just hurled graphic confrontational insults at everyone. Turns out he was invincible!

BUC - Walberg had me cracking up the whole movie!! :thumbsup:

[bulldogman06]

Oh, I loved the Departed, it was great. crazy ending, not necessarily dissapointed, but crazy. I was like, whoa. Little Miss Sunshine was awesome too, I hadnt even heard of it, didnt want to watch it, but my roommate was watching it so I started to and it was so good.

Running with scissors was the most boring movie I have seen in a long time. The first time I tried to watch it, I fell asleep. The second time, I dozed off a couple of times toward the end.

It was just weird and I was shocked to look at the cover and see it was a comedy....I can't think of anything I thought was very funny!

Bummer. I can't wait to watch it, but these are the kind of movie I just love. Dry, dark humor. Not everyone's cup of tea.

[pirate44]

here's the link to watch Departed (http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-5656153336514205487&hl=en-CA)
should be the full movie

[Blastoderm55]

Any of you seen The Squid and The Whale? That was a pretty freaky movie. I do recommend Thank You For Smoking, Employee of the Month(Matt Damon version) and A History of Violence. Shopgirl was alright too, but nothing special.

Okay, you are scaring me. haha. I watched Shopgirl and thought it had it's moments. I laughed at alot, but I shouldn't have? :thinking:

I rented Thank you for Smoking and The Squid & The Whale. I'll let you know.

History of Violence was a pretty good flick.

That's pretty much what I meant with Shopgirl. It was good, but not great. Worth the rent though. I laughed my butt off with TYFS, but TS&TW was just bizarre. :p

Saved! was good too. :p

Seens snippets of the first two. The other two sound interesting from what I read at IMDB. I'll give them a viewing one of these days.

I rented "The Breakup" last weekend and was thoroughly disappointed with the ending. Thought it had its moments, but wasn't nearly what I expected from Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Anniston.

I hated that movie.

[KTA]

were you dissapointed in the ending like i was?

that ruined the whole damn movie for me

[Buccaneer]

I watched Half Nelson with Ryan Gosling. Total waste of time.

[Blastoderm55]

One of my favorite rentals is SLC Punk. Some day I'll actually buy it. :p

[pirate4state]

Thank you for Smoking pure genious!! :clap: :clap: :thumbsup:

The OH in Ohio great Parker Posey movie!! :D

[hutex04]

I rented INFAMOUS cause it has Sandra Bullock in it. It was alright but it had a gay kissing moment :eek: not a pleasent sight but other than that an alright movie.
Recommendations

1)Little Miss Sunshine (great from start to finish)
2)The Departed (GREAT CAST! jack nicholson in the adult movie theatre is hilarious)
3) The Descent (AWSOME MOVIE! 5 stars! great horror movie never a dull moment, totally worth the money to buy or rent)

[Blastoderm55]

Running with Scissors was great. I especially loved Hope's explanation for Freud's death, as well as the sign from God that Dr. Finch found in the toilet. :devil:

I also rented Gridiron Gang - probably won't get to watch it until tomorrow. :)

Thank you for Smoking was AWESOME!!! BBDE will love it!! :D

[Blastoderm55]

The previews for Half Nelson were on the RWS disc. I think we're gonna rent that one next week. It didn't look as bad as Buccaneer said. :p

[Buccaneer]

I also watched Soldier of God, Man about Town, and a Russian film "4". They were not worth it. I did see a Russian fim called "Night Watch" that was very good.

[Blastoderm55]

Rented "The OH in Ohio." Watching tonight. Will post thoughts tomorrow. :D

[Emerson1]

I rented The Departed the other day. Pretty good, bad ending though.

Obviously! If and when we ever "hang out", we will know not to go to the show!!:)

[JasperDog94]

I just watched "Lady in the Water" this weekend. It was okay. I didn't really care for the ending.

I'm halfway through "Flyboys". So far I've liked it.

I saw flyboys a few weeks ago. I thought it was pretty good.


I also saw The Guardian, it would of been good if Ashton Kutcher wasn't a lead role.

[Blastoderm55]

Oh in Ohio was hilarious!

[Buccaneer]

I watched The Science Of Sleep, Seven Swords, and Artie Lange's Beer League. I got The Presige and Babel today. On Babel there is a preview for the new Samuel L. Jackson movie "Black Snake Moan". It really looks interesting.

[Buccaneer]

Babel was very interesting. Has anybody else seen it?

[Buccaneer]

The Prestige was excellent!

[Blastoderm55]

Rented Shut Up And Sing, the documentary on the plight of the Dixie Chicks. Very solid rental. I highly recommend it. Politics aside, this is a DVD I'll probably buy.

[piratebg]

I saw Open Season a few days ago, and it was okay. It was much better in The Wild.

I also saw School for Scoundrels and it was pretty funny.

[GreenGobbla]

i agree...watched it last night and it was a really good movie

also, school for scoundrels was a good one too
