• Up in the Air (2009/I) 8/10

  2010-02-26 23:23

  

  I have rarely enjoyed a movie so much during the last couple of months. Although dealing with a couple of painful subjects (CTOs, lay-offs, family vs. self-autonomy), it was truely enjoyable and is high-recommendable!

• Nothing But the Truth (2008) 6/10

  2010-02-13 23:18

  

  Great theme, but far too boring.

  0.3

• Prison Break: The Final Break (2009) (V) 5/10

  2010-02-12 23:16

  

  If you were a Prison Break fan then just forget this "movie" which is just a a collection of two episodes that ended on the cutting room floor..

• January, 2010

• Did You Hear About the Morgans? (2009) 5/10

  2010-01-23 21:43

  

  Thank god I wasn't expecting too much: I wasn't disappointed! ;-)

• November, 2009

• 2012 (2009/I) 8/10

  2009-11-13 21:51

  

  Brilliant! A typically invincible hollywoodian hero, but a definite must-see all the same.

  0.3

• October, 2009

• The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009) 6/10

  2009-10-17 22:15

  

  Yawn, yawn and again: YAWN!!

  0.3

• August, 2009

• Taken (2008/I) 8/10

  2009-08-25 19:51

  

  Riveting from start to finish! Too bad we've now cancelled Sarah's trip to Paris.. ;-)

  0.3

• Knowing (2009) 7/10

  2009-08-22 22:47

  

  Oh how this movie could have been great without "The Whisperers"!

  0.3

• February, 2009

• Slumdog Millionaire (2008) 8/10

  2009-02-06 23:00

  

  Totally lived up to its expectations. Powerful stuff even if the end was a bit naff.

  0.3

• January, 2009

• Numb (2007/I) 5/10

  2009-01-06 23:08

  

  Boring from start to finish.

  0.3

• December, 2008

• Little Children (2006) 7/10

  2008-12-26 23:04

  

  Slow moving, but entertaining nonetheless.

  0.3

• November, 2008

• Mamma Mia! (2008) 7/10

  2008-11-23 22:46

  

  I feared a bomb, but it was quite enjoyable. Apart from Pierce Brosnan's singing, that is.. ;-)

  0.3

• Penelope (2006) 7/10

  2008-11-16 22:46

  

  Thank god Disney didn't get their hands on this one! Not bad at all!

  0.3

• Religulous (2008) 7/10

  2008-11-14 23:56

  

  Oh-oh: I really enjoyed this one. We represent 16f the god-fearing American nation? Where's our lobby?

  0.3

• Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008) 7/10

  2008-11-02 23:59

  

  Hmm: finally managed to watch this one without being interrupted by Russian dialog. The kids (well, at least one of them) enjoyed the "penis" scenes" and I was (yet again) left waiting for a twist in the plot. Definitely worth seeing for Russel Brand fans.

  0.3

• Snow Cake (2006) 6/10

  2008-11-01 23:52

  

  It's not often that I grossly disagree with the overall IMDB rating; but this was one of these movies: 7.6/10? Just because Sigourney Weaver had a challenging role and Alan Rickman showed feelings? Nah!

  0.3

• October, 2008

• Interview (2007/I) 7/10

  2008-10-31 23:47

  

  Surprising! Very enjoyable, especially now that I know what the fuss around Sienna Miller is all about.

  0.3

• In the Valley of Elah (2007) 6/10

  2008-10-25 22:30

  

  I waited for 90 minutes for something spectacular to happen, a twist which could have given some sense to this movie. None did. Pity..

  0.3

• In Bruges (2008) 8/10

  2008-10-19 22:28

  

  Dry humour, extremely well written. superb acting and the location, of course.

  0.3

• Reservation Road (2007) 7/10

  2008-10-18 23:10

  

  A tragic subject portrayed by superb acting, but somehow too linear.

  0.3

• A Simple Plan (1998) 7/10

  2008-10-18 22:27

  

  Despite suspecting what the outcome will be, you still cringe when it happens. A good movie!

  0.3

• September, 2008

• Over Her Dead Body (2008) 4/10

  2008-09-20 00:06

  

  I can't help comparing any movie starring Eva Longoria with Desperate Housewives (which DBW tells me is actually pretty good :-) ).

  0.3

• Keinohrhasen (2007) 7/10

  2008-09-19 21:30

  

  Definitely recommendable! Although I will DEFINITELY avoid movies starring "hunks" of my age in future.. ;-)

  0.3

• Sex and the City (2008) 6/10

  2008-09-14 00:03

  

  Yawn!

  0.3

• You Don't Mess with the Zohan (2008) 5/10

  2008-09-13 00:01

  

  If it had been British comedy, it could have been great. It wasn't.

  0.3

• Into the Wild (2007) 7/10

  2008-09-12 23:56

  

  A movie about a self-centered immature young guy who thinks he can find the truth by escaping the real world and the people who care for him. As he finally realizes: "Happiness (is) only real when shared"

  0.3

• August, 2008

• Run Fatboy Run (2007) 7/10

  2008-08-31 22:25

  

  Not up to the usual British standards for romantic comedies, but highly watchable nonetheless.

  0.3

• Feast of Love (2007) 6/10

  2008-08-24 23:18

  

  WARNING: chick flick! Unfortunately. I must be getting old: this movie, as its title suggested, was to be all about Love; but as Love=emotions and, for the most part, the various characters seemed to accept their fate without even raising their eyebrows: sorry, I'm too used to (and prefer) Italian emotivity!

  0.3

• Closing the Ring (2007) 8/10

  2008-08-23 23:00

  

  Great actors, a great story, superb photography. David Attenborough at his best!

  0.3

• The Bank Job (2008) 7/10

  2008-08-22 23:16

  

  No twists or turns, but great entertainment from end to end.

  0.3

• P.S. I Love You (2007) 6/10

  2008-08-17 22:49

  

  I was expecting a lot from this movie. Maybe too much as there was not one single moment when I experienced the slightest emotion. Pity..

  0.3

• Definitely, Maybe (2008) 6/10

  2008-08-10 23:19

  

  A perfect movie for a Sunday evening.

  0.3

• The Oxford Murders (2008) 6/10

  2008-08-09 23:28

  

  Another movie that could have been much better than it actually was.

  0.3

• The Game Plan (2007) 5/10

  2008-08-07 23:05

  

  An absolutely perfect movie..for 12 year old girls and Dwayne Johnson fans. I have definitely grown out of Walt Disney productions!

  0.3

• We Own the Night (2007) 6/10

  2008-08-03 00:06

  

  What could have been a great movie turned into a disappointment. Pity!

  0.3

• August Rush (2007) 9/10

  2008-08-01 00:41

  

  Magical!

  0.3

• July, 2008

• Eastern Promises (2007) 7/10

  2008-07-25 00:12

  

  Dark and tense. Makes you wish such issues were purely fictional.

  0.3

• Made of Honor (2008) 5/10

  2008-07-20 23:37

  

  So-so.. DBW kind of ruined it by reminding me that Patrick Dempsey is my age :-(

  0.3

• Dan in Real Life (2007) 8/10

  2008-07-20 00:51

  

  Not a romantic comedy, but romantic and a comedy. Perfectly enjoyable!

  0.3

• What Happens in Vegas (2008) 6/10

  2008-07-13 23:06

  

  Not as bad as Vic said it would be. Definitely watchable.

  0.3

• Once (2006) 8/10

  2008-07-12 20:28

  

  Refreshingly great movie. Worth viewing for the soundtrack alone.

  0.3

• Gone Baby Gone (2007) 7/10

  2008-07-11 20:37

  

  Rather slow at times, but the end raises essential questions
