I just took my daughter to see "Chicken Little" and it was so funny! The animation is awsome, it had a ton of inside jokes that kids dont get but parents do.

I laughed out loud so many time, or was tapping my foot along with the movie... ha I got into it.

Anyways I suggest that you see it, its worth the ticket price. :D

If you want to see a scary movie watch 'Wolf Creek' it's an Australian movie but has done so well here it's going to be realised overseas as well. It's about hitchhikers being kidnapped and I've never been so scared in my entire life. I love scary movies but this was intense.....the cinema was full when we went in and about 50 people had to walk out because it was so bad. Not bad bad, but just the horror of it all.

It's actually based on the Ivan Malik cases in which a guy kidnapped hitchikers and murdered them about 10 years ago in New South Wales. Because it's based on a true story, it has that whole 'it could happen to you' sort of vipe.

If it ever comes to a cinema near you go and see it.....

I recently watched The Interpreter starring Sean Penn and Nicole Kidman, and I thought it was pretty good. It kept me on the edge of my seat and we were all making speculations as the movie played out.

Okay, so I may be biased because I think Sean Penn's a good actor, i.e. in I Am Sam and Mystic River :roll:

Uhm, what else. Ah, there's this movie called Bride & Prejudice, which is a Hindi take on Pride & Prejudice. It was weird, but quite funny, with the songs and the dancing. Same characters (save the name changes on Elizabeth's side, since in this movie they're Indian) and similar scenario, all in a modern Indian setting. It stars Martin Henderson, Aishwarya Rai, and Naveen Andrews. Not the best movie ever, but okay.

Memoirs of a Geisha is coming out soon. I'm really wondering how it'll turn out. Zhang Ziyi has never been one of my favourite actresses, but maybe she'll do Sayuri justice. *shrugs* Ziyi doesn't look Japanese at all, but it doesn't really matter if she can play the part well, and the same goes for Gong Li and Michelle Yeoh. I'm definitely looking forward to this.

I just saw Harry Potter and it was GREAT! the movie is two and a half hours long but it didn't drag on. This one was funnier then the other's tho. It was great seeing them all grown up too. Really good movie tho! The affects are really well done.

I saw Walk the Line. Brilliant movie. Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon play their parts to perfection. There's romance and fame, but it also gets a little dark with drugs, violence, and a father who thinks more of one son than the other. I say go see it, even if you aren't a fan. I don't particularly prefer Johnny Cash, but I was moved by this movie.

I saw HP last night it was the most crowded movie I have ever been to. People were tripping and there were so many people dressed up it was funny to watch. The movie started at 12:01 and we got there at 9:00 to get good seats. People were flipping out. Some random guy went to the front of the theater and started a count down but the movie didnt start when we reached one. No one realized that he was just some random guy and had nothing to do with when the movie was going to start or not. THe screen did this strange thing where the bottem half of the screen was on the top and the top was on the bottem during the priview for Superman. Everyone flipped but they fixed it before the movie started.

Anyway, the movie was awesome. REALLY long, but awesome! Everyone go see it.

omg,

I saw Harry Potter last night too and it was so freagin' crowded. The fourth movie was by far most the best one of them all. I have to admit I was a little freaked out, I wasn't sure I wanted to see the movie because I've read all the books and everytime I read one of the books, an image of what it looks like sort of forms in my head and I was sort of scared that seeing the movie would sort of destroy that image that I have of the 4th HP book. But it wasn't so bad after all. It was actually a pretty good movie.

Steph :) :D

I saw it opening night at midnight which was the first showing in my city and the damn theater was so crowded and the movie was showing on four different screens but it was totally worth it. I loved the effects on this movie. Voldemort looked exactly like I had always pictured him so that was pretty cool too.

I saw Walk the Line Friday night, and it's an amazing movie; the performances were incredible. Being a Johnny Cash fan I really enjoyed it.

It truly gave me chills when Joaquin Phoenix was singing.

I just love it.

OMG Ditto! I got chills watching Joaquin Phoenix, he was Johnny Cash! If he and Reese Witherspoon don't win the Oscars next year, damn! I am not a big JC fan, but I saw the two actors recently on Oprah, and they had this amazing chemistry together it made me want to go watch the movie. I was glad too :D I highly recommend this one!
