Caught "Source Code" the other day, enjoyed it very much, though a somewhat predictable ending.
I also saw "Men in Black" for the first time (amazingly). I was in just the right mood for it and laughed my head off. Great stuff. Tommy Lee Jones was really on form when he made that.

I watched The Rocket recently. It was a quietly intense movie about this little boy and his family trying to find a new home against the backdrop of megadam projects in war torn Laos. Beautiful music, too.

The summary sounds like something from an Iranian movie, like The Bicycle.

I remember watching the original Solaris way back in the 70s it must have been. I was very young then and the typical Russian pacing was too slow for my taste but it left a lasting impression on my mind.

I liked Solaris. It was good, but not amazing imo.

Saw
Jersey Girl (2004) Has Ben Affleck in and Jennifer Lopez, I really enjoyed this one.
Now watching Parental Guidance, pretty average film rather forgettable

Ohh I forgot, I watched XMen Days of the Future Past (totally guessing that title, so excuse me if I'm wrong)!
It was quite cool. Basically a satisfying Marvel experience.

I watched two films today the first was ANG LEE'S
crouching tiger, hidden dragon, a captivating and thrilling
film that's got real heart and soul.
the second was ZHANG YIMOU film house of flying daggers
I think a film of real beauty and visual poetry.
regards J

Finally went to see "How to train your Dragon 2" today... caught the 3:30pm showing. got in line and a lady friend was at the head of the line, so I joined her there with her two grandkids. The brat paid my admission, so I got even and snagged the bill for all the snacks... hahaha, sneaky me. I know the people at the theater. lol
As for the movie, I enjoyed it almost as much as the original movie. There were different levels to the film as you will see if you go to view it. I liked it, as did my three friends...
This evening, while doing more work on the yearbook project that I am doing, I watched "Walking Tall", starring the "Rock"... It was a typical, machine gun shooting, wild fights and bang-bangs, etc and of course love and family, lol I preferred the original version.

Well, I can't say I've seen these today, but most recently I watched Brand Upon the Brain by Guy Maddin. This movie is pretty much crack. Black and white, silent-film, quirky, sexy, weird, funny, sad, scary-ass crack. I'm all for it.
I also watched Moonrise Kingdom and The Royal Tennenbaums , both Wes Anderson films. I liked The Royal Tennenbaums more, because I felt like the characters had more depth and I just enjoyed it and laughed more. When I watched Moonrise Kingdom it felt a lot more awkward, forced, and less funny. I don't know why. I ought to give Moonrise a second watch and re-evaluate my first reaction, just to see if I was still smoking too much cracky-wacky from watching Maddin.
Either way, pretty awesome movies, both directors' styles are weirdly distinct as fuck.
