Best and Worst : What was the last movie you've seen?

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

I think the guys did a better job, on the first Ghostbusters. What do you think?

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

Cute, funny and fun. Teaches a good lesson.

Morris from America.

I stumbled upon it by accident. It was cute.

A Countess from Hong Kong

The Charlie Chaplin movie, with Marlon Brando and Sophia Loren. It's O.K. 7/10

"May Fortune favor the foolish"

The Christmas Secret (2014)

You couldn't write a more cliched Xmas story even if you wanted to (it's hard to believe this is actually based on a book). But if cheesy holiday TV movies are your thing, I guess you could do worse. 3/10

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

I finally got around to seeing "Arrival" yesterday. It was great, and I'd give it a very solid 7/10.

Beyond the Black Rainbow

Stunning visuals and soundtrack, which really nail the feel of sci-fi classics, but that's about it. Besides the obvious inspirations, it has a quite similar vibe as Under the Skin (all style, very little substance). Such a shame, it really could've been something special. 2/10

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

Journal d'une femme de chambre (2015) (Diary Of A Chambermaid) / Benoît Jacquot. The third feature film version of a 1900 novel about upperclass French sexual depravity. Léa Seydoux plays the title chambermaid and, as usual, is luminous and exceptional. She had worked with director Jacquot once before in 2012s "Farewell, My Queen," one of my best of that year. This opus, however, is not the equal of the earlier success. "Chambermaid" is eposodic and the heroine too opaque. Even with her voice-over narration and under-her-breath comments, we are never sure of her thoughts or feelings. So, when the ending finally comes, it doesn't seem to have had the groundwork prepared. It just seems arbitrary. Nevertheless, with Seydoux on-screen for almost every second of the runtime, and the detail of the period setting, this film is more that just watchable.

Donnie Darko: The Director's Cut (2004)

Took me a while to get into it. Film kind of grew on me as it went on though. Not a masterpiece by any means and a tad too abstract for my tastes, but overall not as bad as I thought it might be.
