Rented any good movies lately?

Sherlock Holmes. Lots of good action but if you are looking for something more cerebral, try Snow White or another Disney movie.

 

[MarceTou]

Gone Baby Gone - cop flick with some major twists starring Casey Affleck and Morgan Freeman. Really makes you think.

I second that one, it's a must see!

Just watched "Complicated" with Streep and Baldwin. Definitely worth a watch. Has anyone seen "Men who stare at goats"?

 

[El Barto]

I bought Defendor with Woody Harrelson.
it was better than avatar storywise.
A dark comedy about a mentally challenged superhero with home made gadgets...
Sad ending tho. Woody sold his roll well as I was dragged in

 

[Taurus Girl]

I second 'Gone Baby Gone' - excellent 'discussion' movie.

The Stoning of Soraya M - unbelievably sad

3:10 to Yuma - great western

Rat Race - friggin hilarious

And definately - Avatar

pontypool

growing op

the green chain

the tracey fragments

these are some of the more recent films I've seen and enjoyed. although 'the green chain' is more of a debate than entertainment.

Benny and Joon was so good, I just rented part one and two
of the godfather, only saw the first one years ago, so
thought I should go back and catch up, excellent movies.

 

[Colpy]

The Blind Side.

Saw it last night.

Just shows what a good Christian Republican wife and mother with a lifetime membership in the NRA and a license to carry can accomplish......

All kidding aside, a great movie! I enjoyed it immensely, especially the little boy........

Benny and Joon was so good, I just rented part one and two

just finished watching part 3 of the godfather, very very
intense, I'll watch all of them again in a few months, to
gather more detailed information, as it is a little hard
to follow some of the time.

 

[talloola]

We are watching the old western comedy called 'halleluya
trail', burt lancaster and lee remick, hillarious so far,
it's now intermission.

 

[Icarus27k]

With a title like that...

Trailer Park of Terror - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

...How could you resist, right?



My best friend loves things like this, and he makes me watch them. But this one was pretty amusing.

 

[Kreskin]

Saw Shrek 4 tonight. Was a lot of fun.

 

[Herboozle]

In all honesty, I don't rent movies anymore. I don't know a lot of people who do, either.

I still do buy movies, though. Recently picked up The Wolfman on Blu-Ray. I recommend it - fun watch, Del Toro's Wolfman looks spectacular thanks to the legendary Rick Baker, and the unrated, extended cut is definitely worth your time.

Here's a clip of Baker, heh:

 

[YukonJack]

Why rent a movie, when in probably no more than three months it will be on one of the movie channels?

Why rent a movie, when in probably no more than three months it will be on one of the movie channels?

Some are worth rening/buying on BluRay as quality is considerably better then what you will get from Rogers/Shaw/Bell etc. Currently, there is no 1080p content available from the broadcasters so your only choice is rent/buy.

We finally watched "Avatar". We enjoyed it. Great FX. Predicatble story line, but who cares? If you want depth, don't watch it. If you want entertainment, it's cool.

 

[mt_pockets1000]

Just picked up The Missing from a bargain bin at Walmart. Great western with Tommy Lee Jones and Cate Blanchett.
