Any one have suggestions for a edge-of-your-seat movie? Doesn't necessarily have to be a recent movie.

I started watching a really low budget movie called Primer and it is pretty good. I plan on finishing it tonight. From what I understand it is a complete mind **** movie and about quantum mechanics and such.

For an edge of your seat movie watch the Battlestar Galactica miniseries!

I read the reviews on RT and this sounds like the winner. Also there are a ton of seeders for it.

saw Changeling the other day- solid movie, very solid movie- Jolie's oscar nomination was totally justified, she was very impressive. I wish John Malkovich had more of a speaking part, but when he did it was great

Primer's not bad, I saw that one a long time ago. It's always on IFC if it's the movie I'm thinking of. Two dudes working on a machine, accidently event time machine, that it?

That is the one. I still have yet to finish it, I should get on that. I just recommended it based on glowing reviews I have read/heard.

Yeah, it's good. Like you said, low-budget but it works. Makes you think too, which is always fun. :)

It looks like Fanboys is coming out April 3rd now. Even with all of the delays and my interest in the movie going way down I will still be checking it out in theaters.

I am going to be catching a 7 PM showing of I Love You, Man and then I think I will sneak into another movie while there. I am thinking Miss March because it will be free and nothings else really looks appealing. I figure if Miss March is terrible I can just walk out anyways but hopefully it is good for a few laughs.

M.O.T.H. · 03-20-2009, 12:02 AM

I know they didnt like Fanboys on At the Movies...I still cant believe how many times that movie has been delayed and tweaked with. I still want to see it, though.

All I know about Miss March is that it was killed on Movie Mob, if you know what that is....Supposed to be painfully bad. 2 fresh and 48 rotten on rottentomatoes doesnt sound that good. haha.

M.O.T.H. · 03-20-2009, 12:09 AM

Another movie that is getting killed by critics as expected, is Knowing. I know I'll eventually see it when it comes out on DVD but, I wasnt expecting much. Atleast some of the FX look pretty decent.

Extended clips below...

Oh the acting, though. ughhhh. lol.

Save us Nic Cage...you're the only one who could do so. :D

It was directed by the same guy who did Dark City, so I held out some hope for the movie, but I guess not...I'll watch it on DVD though.

Question: When does Observe and Report come out? I am going to be completely baked when I watch it and it looks hilarious.

Yeah it's directed by Proyas so, you would atleast figure there would be some crazy imagery but, I didnt think having a good director would even save this one. Nic Cage is so over dramatic in every role now...this script was also passed a round a little too much and re-written a billion times. There were a lot of red flags here. It should still make for some good special FX/CGI scenes but, other than that, probably very meh. Pretty much the average disappointing popcorn flick these days, probably could be placed in the same group as the Day the Earth Stood Still. I just hope it's better than something like, the Happening. ugh.

Observe and Report comes out April 10th. Atleast some good looking movies are on the way and May is freaking jam packed with HUGE box-office smash type popcorn movies that could end up being pretty decent.

I had no idea reviews were THAT bad. I might end up seeing Duplicity because that is really the only other movie that interests me in the slightest that I can get in to.

El Peefs????? · 03-20-2009, 12:58 AM

So have you watched the BSG miniseries yet Brent? Eh? Eh? Eh?

Oh and all I have to say about Fanboys is ....

Tasty.

I watched it and loved it.

Just got back from seeing The Last House on the Left. Pretty good movie. One of the better horror films I have seen in a long while.

Yeah, Primer is a weird movie. Sort of awesome, but also sort of indecipherable.

Fanboys was pretty good. I had no idea Kristen Bell was in it until someone pointed it out to me heh. As for Miss March, it wasn't too bad.
