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


Recommended Posts

3/5 - Not bad, the realism aspect of it was good, little things like actually using Google/Youtube helped definately. I enjoyed it!

I would have like it more if it wasn't in a seaside setting. Aside from Jaws & Leviathan, I'm not big on water terror. I thought the acting was excellent throughout.

World War Z (2013)

 

3/5

 

Not a terrible movie. But sadly the subject of it has been beaten to death lately. World War Z sadly brings nothing new to the table.

 

The Wolverine (2013)

 

3/5

 

It's okay i guess. But i did not really learn anything new about Wolverine except that he went to japan and felt in love with a beauty there. The love story was really forced. Some action sequences were nice notably the a-bomb and ninjas.

 

Anna Karenina (2012)

 

3.5/5

 

Style over substance. Pretencious i guess. Did not really follow the book closely enough for me. Did not really feel russian all that much sadly. Still a visual feast and well worth watching despite it's many flaws.

Pacific Rim - 8/10. Much better than expected. Definitely not another Transformers. Gotta love Ron Perlman as Hannibal Chau! My man!

Side Effects - 7/10 - It was pretty damn good. I didn't go into it expecting much. One of the scenes in it was actually fairly troubling for me to watch. Which is odd, cause generally that wouldn't affect me one bit.

 

Oblivion - 7/10 - Better than I expected, I have a issue with the plot that I can't mention without spoiling it. But unless I missed something it's a terrible plot-hole.

Elysium (2013)

 

3.75/5

 

Not as good as District 9 but still better than your average sci-fi flick. Little bit too much dramatization for my taste and not enough characters development for us to care all that much about them. Movie could have been 15 to 20 minutes longer with a longer introduction (the stupid flashbacks could have been cut this way too). Still Neill Blomkamp is the new Paul Verhoeven imo.

    • No updated SSD capacity, no updated specs (not surprised tbf), just nostalgia baiting! Bring back the boot sequence and the UI as an easter egg!
    • Why? It will just cost so much more and make you PC poor and they become PC rich off your calamities! “Just because you can” isn’t a flex either!.
    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon by Sayan Sen In the modern digital workspace meeting recordings and summaries are very commonplace, still finding the right recap later can be surprisingly difficult. To address that inconvenience Microsoft is working on a new dedicated meeting recap application designed to bring all meeting recaps into a single, centralized location. In a recent announcement on its Microsoft 365 roadmap website, the company has confirmed the new applet and has explained how the new experience will work and why it believes it can help users stay on top of discussions without having to search through multiple chats, calendars, or files. For those unfamiliar, meeting recaps provide a summary of key discussions, decisions, action items, and other relevant information generated after a meeting ends. They are intended to help participants revisit important points while also allowing those who missed the meeting to quickly catch up on what happened. Traditionally locating older recaps could require users to navigate through various conversations or meeting histories. The new meeting recap app aims to simplify that process by gathering all available recaps into one dedicated hub. According to Microsoft, this should make it easier to browse past meetings, review outcomes, and stay informed about ongoing projects and discussions. One notable feature of the applet is the addition of quick filters which are meant to allow users to instantly narrow down the list of available recaps and surface specific meetings without manually searching through extensive records. Audio recap is also there. If you're wondering how long these recaps will last before self-expiring, the app will provide access to meeting recaps from the past 30 days or approximately one month. You can view the feature entry here on the official Microsoft 365 (M365) website under roadmap ID 564614. Its rollout is set to begin this month (June 2026). Do keep in mind though that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
    • Does it have couch co-op is the question I have here.
