Anyone seen any good movies lately??

The Prestige is the coolest movie I've watched in awhile.

We just bought "Saint Ralph". It's about a 13 (?) year old boy who sets out to win the Boston Marathon. I laughed, I cried, I laughed some more.

I have long since stopped going to a theater and now wait for DVD or On Demand for movie watching so some of these are alittle old but I highly recommend:

CHILDREN OF GOD

THE QUEEN

CASINO ROYALE

HAPPY FEET

PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS

PAN'S LABYRINTH

300
* * *

Can't recommend:

NOTES ON A SCANDEL

ERAGON

Actually saw in Theater and liked but can't recommend:

APOCALYTO

The Waitress

Ditto.

A sad aside regarding the movie: the director was killed in her NYC apartment not long after filming concluded. She also plays one of the other waitresses in it, too.

I appreciate you guys coming up with movie titles, but synopsises are good too,
right?
we watched a Night at the Museum. a loser who has a 10 year old son who lives with mom and another man gets a job at the Museum of Nat. History in Manhattan. at night all the critters come alive. he has to keep bedlam from destroying the place. a little predictable, but fun.

Recently saw (on Starz) "Proof" with Gwyneth Paltrow. REALLY liked it. DH thought it a bit odd, but that's okay; I like odd movies. Recommended, especially if you have any interest in math, but even if not.

I loved that movie. I haven't seen many lately, so no recommendations. The last one I saw was "The Last King of Scotland." It was interesting but very brutal and not for the faint of heart. It's about Idi Amin. A bio of the man through the eyes of his Scottish physician.

I've not seen any movies recently as there's nothing at the indy cinema at the moment that tempts me. I don't go to the normal cinema as it's just hollywood crap.

I do have this urge to watch the Rocky Horror picture show again I'm not sure if it's Susan Sarandon & Barry Bostwick singing in the rain or Tim Curry.. *off to do the time warp*
