What was the last movie you watched? (2013 Edition)


Recommended Posts

Haven't found time to watch one at home lately, but the last flick I did manage to catch was the new Star Trek. 

 

Think I need to see it again before passing judgement.

I watched Spring Breakers ^ It was Incredible...bly Bad. 1/10.  Nice girls though. 

 

Vanessa Hudgens + Selena Gomez = fans of that genre only. Even with Kriz's 5/5 I can't. :)

Its a lot grittier and darker than some of you may think, its not a chick flick by any means. (Spring Breakers)

 

You've got street cred after Little China and Black Dynamite, so standing behind your 5/5 and adding gritty and dart to Hudgens and Gomez, I'll give it a shot.

 

I admit I'm going in thinking I won't be able to watch the whole thing :)

That turns out to be a pretty good assessment. Has to be the biggest surprise in a long time. You keep your cred, I give it a 4/5. Pacing didn't always work as intended.

Ha glad i could sway you :D On a more important note, glad my street cred is intact!

The Kite Runner (2007)

Great movie: good acting, moving story and good characters; doesn't rely on SFX or famous actors, just a good plot and very good acting (believable). Also shows how thinks were and are in Afghanistan: the birthday party scene reminded me a period in my own childhood where things were simpler but for a celebration party everyone was dressed very formally for the occasion; the exodus scene showed the horrible face of war and the end scene the circle completes.

 

8/10.

Europa Report

3.5/5 - perhaps the future?

 

ZzzZzz - Put me to sleep. 2/5.

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
