Awesome movie, but does require more than one sitting :laugh:

 

Hahahahah ! I've seen it 5 or 6 times, it's like a good music album, you can listen to it every now and then without feeling bored !

 

Now it's time for Inland Empire and Lost Highway ! :P

The Signal (2014)

 

6.5/10

 

I was about to give it a 7 when they pulled a Dark City 2.0 on me. Really? I mean honestly i realize that there's not an infinite number of stories and eventually one has to get inspiration form other works but the end is a total ripoff of Dark City. Interesting work from the director though i'll keep an eye on him with a better script and a bigger budget he might be able to do something really good.

 

3 Days to Kill (2014)

 

6.5/10

 

Uneven movie. McG is quickly becoming the next Michal Bay/Roland Emmerich. He knows how to shoot a movie but that's about it. I guess not everyone is able to be the next Luc besson or James Cameron.

Ida (2013)

 

7/10

 

A good proof that you don't need explosions and lens flares all over the place to make a good movie. It is very very very slow paced but at the same time very short. Movie is 82 minutes only. But it's a good thing cause there's not a lot of meat around the bone. It's a very cold movie about a very cold era. No hollywood dramatization is to be found here despite the tragic story. Not a movie for everyone and while i can't say i really enjoyed it i can definitely applause the attempt of the director to do something different.

 

The Monuments Men (2014)

 

5.5/10

 

Hard to believe Clooney directed such a turd. His last movie The Ides of March was very good. Sad cause the subject was interesting.

well, yeah, i tried to show this movie that was translated, to a bunch of friends.  they were just not enjoying the dialog.    but since they speak bad engish, subtitles would not have helped.

again, my translation was way better.   hard to find a good translation, some are decent, but sometimes a 1 voice unofficial translation is much more watchable that multiple voice "official" translation...

3/5

I thought it was a well done movie, and I agree with this review. The sad part was it definitely could have been better, and focused more on the social aspects of the Purge. Here's hoping the Purge 3 (rumored to focus on the very first Purge), is much better.

 

Also, if anyone wants to hear the Purge version of "America", here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TrUzzG3SNk

I hope there is a Purge 3 and I was happy this was very much open world this time

4/5

 

2121 Jump Street :rofl:

 

yeah, they kept it going.   it is just as good at the original.  which means for a comedy about cops undercover in college, it is pretty funny :)  

don't come in with any other expectations though...

 

still, i though they might make the second one bad. and they did not. so hooray for them, i guess :huh:

X-Men Days of the future past 9/10 - Amazing movie the only one who stands against it is Guardians of the Galaxy 

 

 

yeah?   i might have to go see the guardians, while they are still on the big screen.   because i loved the days of future past!

Philomena (2013)

 

7.5/10

 

Nice drama without the usual hollywood dramatization. Movie is a little bit cold and short considering the subject matter imo. I think it could have been better without the forced not so funny humor and a little bit more backstory. They did cut too much imo.

 

Tracks (2013)

 

7/10

 

Good movie. Not as good as 127 hours but still watchable if you are into personal introspection type of movie.

    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.
    • Real shame the 16 GB versions are crazy more expensive than this.
    • Making me care less about LibreOffice with every tantrum they throw.
    • And within the EU all this Siri AI stuff will probably work around 2030 and the IPhone 25 🤣
