Movie rental reviews...

[eyepatrol]

Ah yes, I watched that one too on Monday, along with The Snow Walker (Barry Pepper). Both were good movies IMO. Had a bout with the flu these past couple days so I had some time to catch up on movie watching.

[koonie]

I'd probably skip Talledega nights.

[mnwild]

Watched Stranger than Fiction and Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny, both horrible movies. Also School for Scoundrels that was alright. Talledaga Nights was an awesome movie, but if your a Nascar fan I would not recommend it.

[CrappieAttitude]

I watched a couple of movies this weekend.

Gridiron Gang...Great movie!!

A Guide To Rocognizing your Saints...The jacket looked interesting, but horrible movie.

Saw III--very little plot. graphic and gore. not very good

Health Inspector w/Larry the cable guy--some funny parts but mostly cheesey humor, not much plot. decent for a comedy

Last week I watched Talladega Nights and I thought it was pretty good. I would recommend it for race fans and nonrace fans.

I also saw the American Pie, the Naked Mile-- the acting was basically horrible, there were some funny parts and some parts/bits that dragged on too long. Plenty of frontal nudity for the men to enjoy though and I mean plenty.

The Departed - Very good, lots of big names. Keeps you guessing.

[zamboni]

I went out and bought Borat today (release day) solely because when I had HBO I watched Da Ali G Show, and think Sacha Baron Cohen is a comic genius. I wasn't disappointed with it at all, very funny. Probably not for everyone though.

Beer League- not a chick flick- If you ever played any softball you may have played with at least one of these guys. So So movie but I watched it with an old buddy who I played softball with and we were drinking beer so it was ok..

[The Grebe]

How about this for irony...we picked up 2 movies for tonight, "The Departed" and "The Return" didn't realize it until we got home. More later.

[Bobby Bass]

Take the Lead- 3 out of 5 stars. Better then I thought it would be. If you have a good surround sound system this movie will show it off. Really had my buttkicker working with the bass and music.

[The Grebe]

Just got done watching The Departed...all I can say is that is one he11 of a movie! I'd watch that bad boy again...in the future of course. Man, talk about suspense! DeCaprio has come a loooong ways as an actor!

The Return, I'll have to get the report from my wife...I don't watch that scary stuff....to gory.

[B. Amish]

i seen Borat last week and it is very funny, but it could be very offensive to some people. there is one scene in the movie that may have been the funniest thing i've ever seen.

[TNFL]

watched "the departed" this weekend. Very good movie. But it didn't live up to the hype in my opinion. would recommend though

[mnwild]

Was able to get in Borat, some funny parts in the movie wouldn't see it again. Fast Food Nation, gives me a new outlook when I order a burger from a fast food joint, would recommend to people and also the New Casino Royal James Bond flick, really good lots of action.

[Eric Wettschreck]

The wife and I watched "The Departed" over the weekend. I never heard of it before (Ya ya I know, I need to get out more) and the wife brought it home.

Holy cow was that a good show. I'd check it out again fer sure!!!

[Valv]

Seen Borat, and I felt really bad I even rented it, we should get our money back from them.....that was the dumbest movie I've ever seen, makes Napoleon Dynomite and Nacho Libre seem candidates for Oscars.

I began to watch Friends with Money, I quit after 10 minutes.

In few words I didn't have much luck with rentals this weekend, should have gone fishing....

[mnwild]

Was able to get in The Departed, all I can say is excellent movie would recommend it to everyone out there. When the movie was done I said "WOW"...Its been awhile since I have seing a really good movie like that.

[McGurk]

The Departed was one of the only movies I've seen in a long time where 10 minutes from the end I have NO idea how it is going to wrap up. Keeps you guessing the whole trip. And a few laughs from the Hollywood-ed "Baauuustin" accent from the obvious non-east coasters (Alec Baldwin was hilarious). Definate recommedation for adults. No kid could follow the plot nor would they need to see most of the ugly stuff, though.

[Bobby Bass]

Two movies I give thumps up to

Tears of the Sun with Bruce Willis and

Saints and Soldiers with a bunch of unknowns.

Saints won several film festivals and was made for less then one mil. Based on a true WW2 story I found it well done and very entertaining. I give them both 4 out of 5 stars. They can be found on net-flicks.

[Valv]

Thumbs up for me is Rocky Balboa.

I always liked the original Rocky and Rocky II, the others were junk. This one brought back the original idea of the movie.

I also like the fact it's a PG with NO foul language, NO nudity, NO gore, this to me was a big plus, I can sit down and watch it with my children and no worries.

[mnwild]

I was impressed with Rocky Balboa, always liked his movies.

It was nice the 1st hour of the movie kept flashing back to the other movies showing Adrian and all the places they have been to.

Also got in Blood Diamond this weekend, another good movie that I would recommend to everyone.

[hovermn]

I'm a huge rocky fan! Bought the box set and watch it pretty much any time it's on TV. Well, except for # 3 and 5. I'm going to pick up the new flick sometime this week.

So what's the story with Adrian? Is she dead?

[Valv]

Can't tell you that !!!!!!!!!! yes first part of movie is a little redundant, but it's a good story.

[hovermn]

Seriously, you're killing me! lol Guess I'll just have to watch it!

[The Grebe]

Got the movie "Blood Diamond" for tonight...I'll let you know my opinion later.

It's later...12:45 a.m. to be exact and we just finished watching the movie and it was great! I don't believe I have ever seen a movie with so many facets...Action, drama, love, sacrifice, explosions, automatic weapons fire, politics, heroics, scenery, carnage, human spirit, history, if you look, you can find just about anything in this movie!

Decaprio is one riveting actor, as is his co-star....if this movie doesn't keep you big eyed, interested and on the edge of your seat, gnawin on your one good nail, no movie will...this sucker is really intense...start to finish!

Furthermore, alot of what goes on in this movie is actually based on true events and those events are still going on today in a country that is termed "The Cradle Of Civilization'!
