Dark Knight. I love the bit when it goes silent and he's riding around with his head hanging out of the cop car. Creates a much better sense of "there's nothing we can do" doom than Empire Strikes Back ever did. The fucker's pre-planned everything and he cares about nothing. And B-Man doesn't kill dudes. Rock, hard place, Arkham.

Terminator - Salvation, I think is the name?

They fail at not ending the movie with a Matrix cliffhanger. The 2 storys could be merged so easily.. Imagine the money they'd make

The original exceeds the remake in virtually every way.

First time I've seen this (I know, I know) and I'm bound to get some hate.

After constantly hearing this movie brought up in conversation with high praise, I finally sat down to watch and I have to say, I'm incredibly unimpressed. I'll give it a slight break though being it Tarantino's first screenplay, but I think since he has released much better films afterwards, going back to his first has no doubt left me with higher expectations.

I am not going to bother mentioning the plot as I am sure I am the only one who hadn't seen it till now.

Upon viewing, I was quickly reminded of why I dislike Christian Slater (and Patricia Arquette is no prize either). The scene between Christian Walker and Dennis Hopper is, as expected, probably the best scene in the entire film and that's all we see of the two.

The only real character development we get in the film is the two leading members, so I end up not caring about the rest of the cast (although Rubinek as the film producer is a gem).

Also, Gary Oldman as thug wannabe Drexl was classic too ("He must have thought it was white boy day.").

The script is a little rough, the acting a bit forced, and bounces over the place (in Tarantino's typical fashion but his first stab being a little disorganized) but it wasn't half-bad for a new screenwriter.

6.5/10

The Professional (or Leon : The Professional). A Luc Besson masterpiece in which Gary Oldman delivers one of his most chilling and sublime performances. Jean Reno is ice cool as the assassin who takes an orphaned young girl under his wing (Natalie Portman in one of her earliest roles). A brilliant film, long overdue for a high def treatment ... but it's here now.

Y Tu Mama Tambien - 2nd time seeing it. Still like it a lot.
Carnivale Season 2 - thought it dragged a bit in the middle, sorry that the creator didn't get a chance to finish his vision of it.
