What was the last movie you watched? (2014 Edition)


Recommended Posts

Interstellar, 2014

 

Made no sense to me.

 

Weak story.

 

Horrible acting by McConaughey -- his damned whispering.

 

I don't know what Matt Damon was doing in the movie -- he added nothing.

 

Were they trying to copy 2001 ?

 

1/5 stars

Interstellar : 7/10, good but far from perfect, and it made sense to me...!

 

Hunger Game Mockingjay, part 1 : 6/10, a somewhat good 2h introduction to the real action that is going to take place in part 2.  Had a couple of tedious moments.

Sorry, couldn't resist. 

St. Vincent - 6.5/10 - I liked the movie but it did make me want to cry (OK, I did cry a tiny bit) and so I lowered its score.

Lucy - 9/10 - Easily one of the best movies I've seen in recent memory. I'm a sucker for Luc Besson though.

Conan The Barbarian (1982) - 5/10 - It was 'meh' at best, I think most people just have nostalgia goggles.

Scrooged - 4.5/10 - I was in the spirit of christmas and Bill Murray was on my mind. Sadly, this movie was not very good.

BioDome - 2/10 - I really liked this movie when I was around 10 years old, and apparently I was a really stupid 10 year old.

Wathing Death Race right now, but last night I watched "The Theory of Everything" pretty good movie, my only beef with it is that unless you are paying attention, you wont really know what time frame its supposed to be

As Above So Below

 

2/5

 

I liked the idea. I like religious horror crap, but it was way too short. Should have had at least one more hour to develop the characters and the story. It made me dream of Dante's Inferno so I guess that's a good thing.

I watched X-Men Days of Future Past yesterday. 9/10

 

I actually really liked it, but then again I am a sucker for X-Men and Marvel films in general.

    • "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 🤣
