Latest/recent DVD movies watched? (Part 6)

From Paris With Love

Second time we've seen it.
Loved it the first time, this time......not so much.

 

I enjoyed it more the second time around.

 

The Book Of Eli - I let this one sit a long time because I had a feeling i wouldn't like it. I was wrong, I liked it a lot.

 

I liked it, but then I've only watched it once.

 

Of course! I don't know of a any P & S BD's. I think there was a second DVD that was wide....?

Get a BD player and start down the Blu Brick Road and find Oz for yourself.... It's time!

 

no thanks...

 

he did amazing things for a blind man...loved it.

 

Peter Weir's The Last Wave

 

even better the second time!

 

from the Criterion Collection Secret Sunshine enjoyed it

 

Babe on Blu-ray. That'll do Pig.

 

Calendar Girls! absolutely wonderful...if you can see this.

 

Really low budget (nothing wrong with that), and a depressing story IMHO.

Wikipedia describes it as a romantic comedy....nothing could be farther from the truth.

Didn't know until I pulled this picture from Amazon that Michelle Williams had been nominated for an Oscar here.
Her performance was OK but can't say it was Oscar worthy.

Not something I'd want to watch again.

 

The Thin Red Line

One of best movies I've ever seen. The Criterion blu-ray transfer is amazing on this movie.

 

That was pretty much the review here. The writer loved the performances, but made it plain that this movie is not for most people and that odds are, you will really be depressed for several hours after seeing it.
I decided to pass.

 

I'm glad I watched it...no critic is going to stray me away from any film...
I could only imagine how many good movies I would have missed.

 

The Next Three Days - Russell Crowe is great in this type of film. I enjoyed it, but I would call it good not great.

 

I watched Run Silent Run Deep on DVD. With Jack Warden and Don Rickles supporting Clark Gable and Burt Lancaster, this is a great cast.

 

it was serviceable...I enjoyed it.

 

It may be historically inaccurate, but I still think it's a fine film!

 

love this film...a most beautiful soundtrack!

 

The music is quite moving.

 

I listen to it often while computing.

another beautiful soundtrack is The Family Man...

 

Last evening I watched Superman II, theatrical, on BD. I think this is the best looking of the 4 Reeves films.
