Movie reviews...

the Departed is the best movie of 2006 and Ive watched about 120 movies thus far this year.

I've got to agree, great movie. I've heard that it is a remake of an Asian movie which is supposed to be even better.

I tend to go to a lot of movies too. Usually pick one out that looks the best every week or two.

SawIII last week, decent I guess, but I wouldn't recommend it if you haven't at least seen the first.

The Departed wasn't exactly what I expected, but it was a decent movie. I personally wouldn't put it in the list of the best movie of 06, but I would recommend most anybody to go and see it (although maybe not on a first date).

Went to see "Casoino Royal" on our Anniversary the other night and we both really liked it. It was a bit different than most of the other Bond movies but it's still good. I'd recommend this movie to anyone.

Good luck,

Took the kids to Happy Feet last weekend - yep, it's another flippin' penguin movie. Started off alright, but the entire 2nd half of the movie was loaded with anti-human, pro-animal propaganda and took a left turn to liberal land. I walked out of the theater disgusted and wish we wouldn't have wasted our money.

It burns me that so many kids movies over the last 10-15 years have become propaganda tools for the antis. SAVE YOUR MONEY AND YOUR TIME - Happy Feet was a big disappointment.

Been a while since anyone posted a new movie review on here, but thought I'd mention that my wife and I saw "The Persuit of Happyness" last night and it was AWESOME! 5 stars from me and I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

Very inspirational!

Four of us went to "Wild Hogs" on Saturday. We all thought it was great and by all the other laughing in the theatre I think everyone thought the same.

[Eric Wettschreck]

Watched Snakes on a Plane last night.

My time would have been better spent trimming my toenails, remvoing lint balls from my belly button, cleaning toilets, etc.

[Double D]

I will second the vote for Wild Hogs. Talledega Nights was great, but I laughed even harder at Wild Hogs. Well worth the price.

has anyone seen the new will ferell movie??

i watched twisted tonight and it was a great movie.

[mattkimk]

No offense, but how could anybody possibly think that a movie entitled 40 year old virgin could possibly be ok for kids? Wouldn't that be a given?

[CrappieAttitude]

Another vote for Wild Hogs. We took advantage of the rainy day and a group of 10 of us went and saw it. I thought it was a very funny show.

We also rented The Pursuit of Happiness. I thought it was a great show, a little drawn out at times, but a reality check on how fortunate we are to be able to sit at a job or at a home, and spend countless hours on this site without having to worry about how we were going to feed our family and pay the bills.

It is a good movie and Will Smith did a fantastic job as usual.

I had a date with the wifey yesterday and we went to "300". It was a good movie and probably worth seeing in the theater. It is a bit gory for kids and has a ton of violence but the action and some special effects were great!

Good luck,

Corey Bechtold

p.s.

The wife really enjoyed all the beefcakes.

[zamboni]

Anyone seen "Grindhouse" yet? Tarantino knocks my socks off, and Rodriguez has put some good ones out to (Dusk 'Til Dawn, Desperado)

[Corey Bechtold]

I've heard mixed reviews on "Grindhouse" so it will have to be on my list of movies to rent.

We had a family outing to the Theater the other day to see "Shreck 3". It was a good movie for the family and I laughed the hardest listening to Brooke laugh! Her laugh is contagious and it could be picked out amongst all the laughter.

Good luck,

Corey Bechtold

I took Bailey to "The Simpsons Movie" tonight. I don't know how many people here have seen this movie but if you want to see a good cartoon in the theater than I would recommend this movie. There are a lot of funny parts and I laughed my butt off quite a few times. You have to know that I love stupid humor and a lot of people might not like the movie for that reason. If you are a Simpsons fan than I'd recommend seeing it.

Let me know if any of you have seen this movie. It'll be fun hearing what struck you as funny. One of my favorite scenes was the "animal" scene in the woods (I'll keep it short so I don't spoil anything ).

Good luck,

"Live Free or Die Hard" was surprisingly good. All of the previews I saw looked terrible, but I was pleasantly surprised. I thought that guy from the Apple vs. PC commercials would ruin the movie, but he did a pretty good job. I'm a big fan of the original Die Hard movies, and I thought this was a worthy addition to the series.

I know the movie has been out for awhile, but seeing this post at the top again reminded me of the last movie I saw, and since no one else commented on it, I thought I would.

[The Grebe]

Anybody see that new Bourne Identity movie yet?

[Kyle Sandberg]

LIve free or die hard is non stop action movie. Loved it.

Saw the Bourne Ultimatum, another good movie. I have like the series and was easy to follow.

[Scott K]

I took my kids to the simpson movie last night, I thought it was good. Towards the end I thought it was getting long, and was thinking its getting bored, but the kids liked it, and I thought it was a good laugh.

[irishjigs]

I saw the Bourne Ultimatium last week...I would have to say it's one of the better action movies I have seen in the last couple years. Lots of action, keeps you on the edge of your seat. Best of the Bourne series.

[The Grebe]

Irish...."UUUUUGHHH!" You had to say that...now I've got to see it! Rats, I may have to go by myself, my wife doesn't like going to the movies...it will take extreme effort for me to wait for it to show up on the shelves at the video store!

[SledNeck]

I was really disappointed by the simpsons movie. Now I remember why I quit watching the show.

The Best movie Ive watched in the last few weeks is Mr.Brooks, with Kevin Costner in it.

28 weeks later wasnt nearly as good as the first one.

Fracture, was a pretty good movie.

I thought Zodiac was a REALLY good movie.

Wild Hogs was funnier than I thought.

Live Free or Die Hard was okay...so far fetched its almost science fiction.

[zamboni]

Noones seen "Superbad" yet? Theres some hilarious uncensored trailers for it on youtube- looks funnier than 40 Year Old Virgin

[Dan Thiem]

We watched Disturbia and Deja vu. Both were good movies.
