Fast 6 - You may be able to suspend any concept of reality during the car chase with a tank.....however, the last big scene where the Russian Cargo Plane is careening down or just above a runway for what seems like half an hour was over-the-top enough for me to roll my eyes into the back of my head and stop 'just enjoying' it.

The only question I have about this movie is:

How much is Gina Carano in it?

Moneyball - Good movie. Entertaining and told true story pretty well. ......... However, I guess I was expecting more of a convincing argument for sabermetrics. There were a couple of nods to Bill James. But, mostly I felt that the single season of data, or the managing by Howe (good and/or bad) were more than enough to dilute the stats 'message' or 'lesson'.

I watched Fast 6 as well and really enjoyed it; just as all action films I accept them for what they are “movies”. There will always be an over exaggerated part. Take "Gone in 60 Seconds" with Nicholas Cage and the ramp off the tow truck over the accident; far fetched, but still a great movie.

Plenty of screen time - lots of fighting; probably a recurring role in the franchise -- not one of the 4 hottest women in the movie; however, more screen time than three of the others combined.

edited to correct may not be recurring...can't remember if she died or not...really....in fact, I'm not sure anyone really died...

This weekend the wife and I rented Cloud Atlas. We made it 45 minutes and shut it off. I was completely and utterly confused. A review I read on the web summed up my feelings exactly: "Its like watching TV with someone who changes the channels every 3 minutes for hours."

Re: What's the last movie you watched II?
 
I didn't even make it 45, at about 30 minutes I had given up and started to do the dishes while letting it play on in the background.

I ended up watching The Man, Sam Jackson and Eugene Levy.

I didn't make it close to 45 mins.

Three things I look for in a movie: A fist fight, A car chase, and sh*t blowin' up!

It's my wife's favorite movie. Part of the whole married thing is that we have to sit through each others movies.

I would not bet on that... How many times have you watched The Notebook?

I have watched Notting Hill more than 20 times -- in fact so much more that I have lost count...

Fortunately, my wife has watched her share of action movies to match :)

I stopped enjoying that horrible series after the second one. They're making a 7th one... of course.

Heard something like this too, definitely a turn off with that Movie.

Broken City, pretty good
Dark Skies, meh
Great Gatsby on date night, I thought it was pretty good. Long though. I'm not sure how accurate it is compared to the book.

Parker. I read the reviews on this thread and lowered my expectations. Therefore I was not disappointed :)

It could have used more female nudity :)

Jennifer Lopez looked so hot that I was wondering if she used a stunt double for the underwear scene...

A good day to die hard.

Once I stopped "thinking" and dwelling on the gaping holes in the plot and movie in general it was ... OKish.

Great documentary, "Richard Pryor: Omit the Logic". Such a funny and troubled man, and the funniest part of my youth.

I watched that last night too. Was very interesting. I did not know the whole story of how he set himself on fire and totally forgot its only bee 8 years since his passing.

I think my favorite bits he did was from "Live in Longbeach" which I think was '79. The bit about how his dad went to his wifes funeral, the deer hunting story, the story of him boxing and him with Ali in that charity fight had me ROFLMAO.

Richard in the middle of the whispering to Ali before they touched gloves - "You know this is a charity fight right?"

Ali mouths back but does not say out loud, just with his lips - "Ima kill you N word" and Richard reaction lmao!!!

When he had his heart attack and every time you go to the dr or hospital to always bring your pee with you.

Ahh he was amazin!

Flight of the Phoenix (the remake with Dennis Quaid) -- it was good but I like the original much better.

Re: What's the last movie you watched II?
 
Speaking of "Flight of..." movies, I just caught "Flight of the Navigator" for the first time since my childhood. For a Disney movie with kid's simplicity, it's a really cool concept that is executed well for its time.

Then again, that could all be nostalgia talking. I broke the VHS cassette of FotN when I was a kid from how often I watched it. Also stars a really young Sarah Jessica Parker.
