Boardwalk Empire is an excellent show.

Of course he's walking the streets free at the movie's end but he appears to be a changed man! And it's only a movie if not! Luv ya and miss you! :yes:
 
Hanna (2011) - Okay so suppose Jason Bourne is a 16 year-old girl. That's kinda what we got with this movie. It is watchable although with quite a number of implausible scenes. You know the scenes. Like where a guy we like is surrounded by 5 guys who want to get him in a parking garage, but no one uses a gun and they approach him one at a time to get their butts kicked in a nice orderly fashion.

Oddly, I found Cate Blanchett to be the weak link in this. I have huge respect for her talents and this may be the first time I have had something negative to say about her but she kept drifting in and out of this Texas (??) accent in a very conspicuous way.

But whatever, it was an okay movie if you don't take it too seriously and I would rate it a 6.
 
Muddy, I watched a couple of Season 1 episodes of Boardwalk Empire and truly liked the show. Unfortunately I'm not good at adhering to regularly scheduled programing and it's not available on NetFlix streaming. Course I like political improprieties and gangsta type chit. As an added bonus if you share Plommers affection for unshaven pubic areas it's a good fit.
 
This show Wilfred about the guy who is the only person who sees his neighbour's dog as a full-grown man in a dog suit . . . I like the premise - from the first time I heard about it I thought, 'Okay, I want to see that' - but, I dunno.

I've only seen one episode but I don't think I will see any more.

It's not good.

Yeah, no.
 
nope...horrible to me...watched the 1st ep last year...its another uk knockoff i believe ...

watched batman...too long, extremely boring in parts, blowing shit up has been done...its old...another extremely overhyped and overrated movie

currently watching Savages
 
Dream House (2011) - Don't know whether to call it a ghost story or a psychological thriller or what but it was a fairly weak effort from Jim Sheridan. He has done some stuff I have really liked but not this. Massive plot holes and general cheese.

One tangent: I remember when Daniel Craig was named the new James Bond and there was much discussion and analysis; one comment I heard repeatedly was that of all the James Bonds, he is the best actor. I had seen him in a few things and he hadn't stood out but I just shrugged my shoulders assuming I had missed some good stuff.

He was the star of this movie and he wasn't good at all. It wasn't just the in-and-out American accent - there were times I wanted to shake him and tell him the movie had started. Not good.


Anyway. 4.4 out of 10 for this flic.
 
I saw a half hour show called Louie yesterday. Starring, written and directed by Louis C.K.

I was surprised. I'm not sure I would call it a sitcom; there wasn't a ton of comedy. It was very artsy. I will definitely watch it again.

Does he have another show? I got the impression somewhere that he had a pretty conventional sitcom where he has a family and shit.



Can anyone shed any light?
 
Yeah I like his stand up too. A lot actually - he's really good. And he's a great talk show guest - hilarious.

But this show Louis - totally not what I expected. It starts with a little clip of his stand-up - like how Seinfeld did when it first started - but then it went really deep and thoughtful and artsy. Very little comedy in the episode I saw. I'm not saying I was 100% pleasantly surprised either. I will watch it again - I am definitely curious - but I am far from sold for the long term.

I see it is listed as a sitcom on imdb. It's in its 3rd season.
