To quote from Colin Farrel describing a typical battle…
“So finally, after pounding away for hours and hours, a raging torrent of Greek sea men would erupt into the Persian rear.”

This movie impressed me too, especially since it is a true story.

I agree on 3.5 stars. Visual effects can’t substitute a good story. Sorry, Mr. Cameron.

Still, you should’ve watched it at an IMAX!

For me 3D was bad enough. It puts a lot of strain on the eyes. It’s possible that regular 2D would be preferable, as 3D might have been taking attention away from the movie itself.

Did you see it yourself?

Nope, I did not. The trailer didn’t look that impressive to me. I’ll probably pass.

I think this show is great, especially the first 3 seasons as Danya said!

I still like it–Jack Nicholson is the man

Yeah, its a good one. I thought the first 1/2 was way better than the 2nd 1/2. Also the 4th 1/4 was weaker than the 1st-3rd 1/4. Still, cool movie. If you liked the awesome Gary Oldman, who played that policeguy that likes batman, see him in True Romance. You won’t believe it’s the same dude.

I’m pretty sure we saw it. I think he was really great in Leon: The Professional and Fifth Element.

And I was just thinking that not only special effects have improved, but the plot of the new batman is more sophisticated (less naive, transparent) than the plot of the older movie.

I really like this show. It is very different from Startrek and Firefly (and probably less interesting to watch again after the whole story is known), but I enjoy watching it a lot! Highly recommended for all SciFi fans out there.

Indeed, we feared that we’ll be disappointed by the new episodes, but we watched them with the same hunger as the first two seasons. Couldn’t really stop until it ended.

I watched few episodes yesterday… So far good show.

It’s only going to keep getting better. Until the later seasons at least where it gets a bit weaker, but still continues to be good.

I had higher expectations for this movie. I was waiting for something meaningful to happen, so the credits really caught me off-guard.

Yeah, sometimes you come from work so tired that a simple light romantic comedy is all you need to just relax.

Agreed—but they probably aimed a little too far away from the mainstream on this one. They should have made Bullock do a quick-draw style shootout at the beginning of each episode, then gone into their super rich an complex political saga.

Is definitely missed.

Yes, the show is great. Yes, HBO sucks for canceling it. I’ll miss it too.

I have to say that is was not easy for me to watch this movie even though I think that the story must be heard. So much pain, so much suffering…

yea i gave that a shot over and over again.
not my cup of tea.
Californiacation however proved to be very addictive

I am in the same boat as Danya — loving it!

That’s so funny…we JUST started watching it a couple weeks ago, too! I hated the first episode but by the end of the first season, we were both in love. We’re now on the first part of season 3 and really, really enjoying it. Ari is also our favorite character.

Funny indeed.

The sad part is that the seasons are so short. We’re in the middle of the 4th and I just realized yesterday that seasons 6 and 7 are not even on DVD yet.

Loved this movie too. His count dracula song was awesome, I want to see that play. If you liked this, see I Love You Man.

You know that fast food is not good for you, yet you keep eating it. It’s just like this show, it’s entertaining, but you know it’s crap.

They are all over the place with zero consistency on anything. So you arrive to a point where you start mistaking actual plot twists for bad writing and just holes in the said plot.

I don’t regret watching it, but I wouldn’t add it to my collection.

One of those movies that makes you feel happy for some time after watching. Laughed a lot, and was thinking about my friends in the process.

Yeah, good movie! Very well written. Every character is interesting in their own way. And great cast. And Rush

Oh yeah, we liked it too. Ryan Gosling is a pretty good actor.

It was good to watch something thought-provoking after suffering through Rambo-Sherlock Holmes (A Game of Shadows) and violent and super-twisted Batman (The Dark Knight Rises). I wish there were more movies like that.

I agree with Danya. Don’t really know what else to say without putting some spoilers here.

Not a fan of this movie, but yes, Brad Pitt was great. The best part of the movie was actually his Marlon Brando impression.

I actually liked it too, even though I didn’t think I would. Wonder what it made Alena think about.

Definitely a good action movie—wouldn’t have been nearly as good if they hadn’t gotten robert downey jr to star—he’s an awesome actor and made the character way more interesting. If you liked him in this, check out Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

I liked it. Wasn’t bored. I guess it is somewhat based on a real story, which probably makes it more interesting, although it’s definitely over-dramatized.

Отличный фильм. Помню, я на него ходила с Андреем и Сашей. Прониклись даже парни
Марион сыграла просто великолепно. Только настоящие актеры могут настолько вживаться в образ…

Да, а у меня потом целый день песня “Non, je ne regrette rien” в голове играла.

I also liked watching the movie in Mongolian language — it really added authenticity to the experience.

I was reading an interview with Bodrov, and was surprised to find out that before producing the movie he went to Mongolian shaman and got his blessing. It’s cool that he decided to go “traditional” in this way.

The Russian movie industry is indeed changing for the better. They’re also releasing more bad movies than before, but the beauty of it is that, unlike music, no one is forcing bad movies on you

I’ll have to watch this one when i get a chance.

русский кинематограф тожа хоча мировых грошиков, поэтому будет делать hollywood like films с элементами национальных особенностей.

посмотрим что из этого выйдет.

Not a bad movie. Like Alena said most characters were portrayed very well — Art was my favorite.

It’s not something that I would want to watch for a 2nd time though.

Great comedy. I was laughing almost all the time.

I am not a big fan of this genre, but this movie was not bad.

Да, мне тоже очень понравилось. Понравилось все в нем.

Agree, that’s a great movie. My favorite stories are about eye contact in Paris Metro, about mime artists couple, about vampiress and about blind guy and actress played by Natalie Portman.

Мне тоже больше всего понравилось про слепого парня.
На втором месте про француза и арабскую девушку. По-моему, это первая история.
И еще понравилось про мать, у которой погиб ребенок.

Testing new movie rating feature…

I guess I’m “not a big fan of nature documentaries” type. And at times it was interesting to watch and at times I was bored and would leave.

I have the same complainants as Alena — often you would feel that they left the commentary unfinished and incomplete.

Life of Mammals! Life of Mammals! Life of Mammals! Life of Mammals! So damned good its like it was filmed by the lord. David Attenborough is super-rad.

Yeah, Life of Mammals is great!

Yes! Awesome show, I’m glad you guys liked it. Titus Pullo and Julius Caesar were especially great.

Titus Pullo is an exact replica of Lenchik. The likeness of character is astonishing.

I liked the first season more, with Julius Caesar. Octavian seemed to be much more clever there as well, even though he did come out on top after all.
