  • Casanova
    ***1/2 Heath Ledger is surely climbing up my favorite actors list. This movie was very enjoyable and I'd reccomend it to anyone.
  • Rebound: The Legend of Earl 'The Goat' Manigault
    *** This was actually a movie from back in 1996. It is a true story about a basketball legend from the streets of Harlem. Many people say he was the best basketball player ever, but he never made it to the NBA as his choices in life lead instead to a life of drugs. This was a very good story, and it kind of freaked me out at first as Don Cheadle had a young relative play his character in his youth, and however this guy is related to Don, he looked just like him, only a smaller version.
  • Rent
    ** The story was ok, but it wasn't a very exciting story. The main theme of this musical is a very memorable song, especially considering it's hook is a number (525,600 minutes). The rest of the songs were absolutly forgetfull and I found myself fast forwarding through the some of the musical parts of the film.
  • The Ice Harvest
    ** What a MAJOR dissapointment. You would be better off just watching the movie trailer as the trailer included 100% of the interesting points of the movie. I'm going to have to re-think watching any John Cusak films in the future. Outside of Gross Pointe Blank (one of my all-time favs), his movies have all been dissapointments.
  • An Unfinished Life
    **** Wow, this was an excellent movie. Sometimes the pace was a little slow, but that actually worked in the movies favor. I don't think I've ever been dissapointed in a Robert Redford movie, or a Morgan Freeman movie, and the two of them together were outstanding. Jennifer Lopez was fantastic and it was a good, enjoyable story. I'd recommend this to anyone, and in fact instead of sending this one back to Netflix, I borrowed it to my parents so they could enjoy it.
  • A History of Violence
    **** This was a VERY good movie. Viggo Mortensen was good, Maria Bello was very good (and very hot) and the twists in the plot kept you on the edge of you seat. But the ending. The movie makers made a mistake with the ending. Seriosly. A wonderfully paced, exciting movie just came to a stop, and then it ends.
  • Memoirs Of A Geisha
    *** There was one reason I got this movie, and it was well worth it. Everything I had heard about this move was about how beautifully it was shot, and to be honest, everyone might have understated this fact. The Academy Awards didn't mess this one up when it awarded this movie Best Cinematography, Best Costums and Best Art Direction. The rest of the movie was OK. The acting was very good, but the story didn't pull me in. But that doesn't matter. It was very enjoyable to watch as it was indeed a very beautiful movie.
  • Fun With Dick And Jane
    *** Jim Carrey has been a LOT funnier. For a comedy that wasn't very funny, it was strangely a decent movie.
  • Brokeback Mountain DVD
    ** Yeah, I saw it. What're you gonna do about it? I honestly didn't see what all the hype was about. I think the movie critics finaly got a movie they could relate too, and they hyped the crap out of this. Heath Ledger was amazing in this, the rest of the movie was kinda lame. And how does Jake Gyllenhaal keep getting paid? The dude is the same disposition/character in all of his movies.
  • Inside Man
    *** I LOVE me some Denzel movies. This was another one of his fantastic movies, but I couldn't give it four stars for one simple reason. THE ENDING SUCKED MUCH ASS! Wow, again, awsome flick. Jaw-droppingly stupid ending.

Guess Who?

Heyya Bill!

I am stuck at 37. I wonder which one I have that you don't, and vice versa.

Guess Who

BTW: yes, you are correct sir.

wdrew

Actually, I got up to 51 on mine. I was stuck at 37 for a while, then I had a memory block in my head dissolve and I got a bunch in a row.

And I guessed right! Whoo-hoot!

Moggie/Suzanne

WOWZA...you guys are good!!! I totally sucked at this...only got an embarrassing 16. Geez, I need to watch movies more.

Good job!

wdrew

Well, when you don't have much of a life and you sit around watching your netflix movies all day long, this is exactly the type of quiz I, er, I mean you could excel at. On the other hand, a quiz about romance would have me completly stumped.

Moggie/Suzanne

I do have one question...the charlie and the chocolate factory one...I typed that title in but it said I was wrong WTF?? I need all the points I can get on this lol. On a side note, I don't remember the last time I actually watched a movie right through without being interrupted by the kids *sigh*

A romance quiz would stump me too...you men are too hard to figure out :P

wdrew

The chocolate factory one is saying it's wrong because you need to use the title from the Gene Wilder version.

How far have you got up to? My brother actually finished the whole thing. The jerky.

Wait, us men are hard to figure out? You only need to know two things for men. The first one better be obvious. And, you know, obvious a LOT. And the 2nd one, it's as simple as this: All ya gotta do, no matter what your man just did or what is going on, just say to him "you're the best, hon", give him a little wink or a peck on the cheek. I swear to god, you'll get the same reaction from your man as when you tell your dog "you're such a good doggie, yes you are". After you say that to your man, he's yours for the next hour, hour-and-a-half and you can get him to do any chores around the house that his lazy butt hasn't done forever.

wdrew

Hey Jay, let me know a few of the ones you are missing and I will give some clues if they are ones that I have the answers to. Same to you Moggie. I don't have them all yet, so I can't answer all of them, and I won't give the answers away. But I'll gladly give out clues.

If any one has figured out 4, 23 or 52, I'll gladly take any clues on those ones.

Moggie/Suzanne

Hahaha...I will remember that! You're the best hon! The guys are gonna getcha for letting out their man secrets!

I can't help you on 4, 23, or 52 (no surprise there lol). I am up to 20 right now (had a major brain fart yesterday and got some more of the easy ones!) It's weird how when you don't look at it for a bit then go back the answers pop into your head!

wdrew

Alright, I'm up to 59!!! Yup, just one left. Let me know if you want some clues for some of the ones you are missing.

Roni

I have a total of 53. I can give hints on the ones I have, but I need hints on the others. Can anyone help me?

wdrew

I have 59 of them. The only one I'm missing is #12. I'll gladly give hints on the ones you are missing.

courters

I'm up to 43... but now i'm stuck and am resorting to cheating :)
