Girl, Interrupted- Horrendous movie. So bad it was unintentionally funny even though it was supposed to be a moving film. UGH!

I liked Girl Interrupted, but that is just a matter of taste I guess
Saw The Fast and the Furious 4 with Paul Walker, Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez. Not bad, but i'm not found of macho movies

X-Men Origins: Wolverine- alright film, big dumb action flick which is what I needed.
Iron Man- I like it a little more every time I see it.
Across The Universe- generic love story set in the 60's, only worthwhile for some decent covers of Beatles songs.
The Iron Giant- How did this film not succede when it came out? For a children's film pretty effing amazing. If you can find it on DVD or catch it on TV watch it, directed by a pre incredibles Brad Bird.

I'm in film studies, so I see quite a lot of films. The last few ones have been Jesus Camp, The Third Man, Music Within, Last Life in the Universe, and Memento. Time for my professor's least favourite claim.. Lovely evaluative.
Jesus Camp - Not as disturbing as I thought it would be, but still pretty bad. Great documentary though, although the directors' ideologies shine through fairly clearly. Although there is no type of film that that doesn't happen, so..
The Third Man - Quite interesting but a little weird. The ending amused me greatly. I really should get into more film noir, I really seem to enjoy the genre.
Music Within - Another one that's a bit disturbing but also quite funny. It's about the passing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Sweet film.
Last Life in the Universe - Confusing but beautifully shot. The plot doesn't make much sense and the ending doesn't help matters, but that is the point.
Memento - It was purposely very disorienting and did what it meant to very well, but I don't know if I enjoyed the experience or not.
I couldn't sleep the other night and saw that they were playing Bring It On for free. I watched it when I was younger at sleepovers and had to see it again. God, what a horrible movie! Made me laugh loads. There are some terrifically bad 90's movies out there (Yeah, that came out in 2000 but it still counts for me).

Crank 2 - it seems even more confusing than the first Crank movie, at times, I had the feeling I must leave the cinema because it was so "wtf?!" Illuminati - better than Sakrileg but that could be because of Tom Hanks acting. Star Trek - I already was afaird it would be horrible when I read about that the producer planned to make it "with more action, more like Star Wars" - and hell... it was so disappointing. And Spock without Leonard Nimoy just isn´t the same (yeah I´m a geek) Wolverine - Hrm. I liked some scenes and disliked the lovestory. Average I would say.

Pirates Of The Carribean 3 - (to Gal, and that one is called "CURSE of he carribean in german ) I really loved part one and two so I was concered I wouldn´t like the third one but thank mötley crüe I was wrong ;D I just love Depp and Keira in it and.. everything else about it! When I was younger I wanted to become a theatre visagist, to create masks out of silicon and paint to make people look just like Davy Jones and his crew and I just love big old ships.

If you can find it on DVD or catch it on TV watch it, directed by a pre incredibles Brad Bird. It didn't do well mainly because of WB's inefficient marketing (and I guess maybe the time it came out--August--probably wouldn't have helped, but they didn't really have much choice since SW Episode 1 would've dominated May and June)

A clockwork orange : quite thought-provoking and interesting. Paprika: Very interesting movie about how dreams and reality can merge. The dream sequences were awesome and the animation was beautiful but the overall plot wasn't very cohesive. As with many films adapted from books, I suspect the original plot was better. Borat: Uhm, I couldn't finish watching this. It wasn't terrible or dreadful, just that many of its' scenes and scenarios hit too close to home. And adding to the fact that some if it reminded a bit too much of the propaganda put out by my country was... errr... like adding salt to an open wound? ;D A while ago: Tokyo Godfathers: another cool anime movie about society, humanity and stuff. ;D

@ SC You're right about Borat, worst movie in the history of film making
Night at the Museum 2: I had a good laugh, Hank Azaria as the farao and the always brilliant Robin Williams as Teddy Rooseveld

No, to me, it wasn't worse. I just felt that the things presented in the movie were too difficult to deal with: since they reminded me too much of myself and society. It is ironic that I can watch movies about holocausts and stuff, and even things about cannibalism, without blinking an eye. Just finished watching Soylent Green. One of the scenes was truly awful... it's amazing I managed to eat food after watching this. Oh well, it's only a matter of time before many countries get so crowded, there's nowhere to walk and sleep.

Schindler's List... gods... what a brilliant movie! EDit: Crossing(Kuroesing) : It was all right, I guess... it was more educational than entertaining. And from some time ago: F*cking Amal: It was just an average love story. I'm not entirely sure what the hype about it, was 'cos the personalities of the 2 females didn't seem to hold much promise for the relationship.
