It's such an understated movie that it's not like there are big comedy setpieces to distract you from its shortfalls.

I was expecting better from Alexander Payne.

thx i might see it this weekend with her.

Saw american hustle and inside llewyn davis last night, first more enjoyable than the second given that i knew nothing of the coen brothers personal lives or anything about the folk music scene in the 60's.

Watched Devil's Pass on Netflix the other day. Not terrible considering how low budget it was.

You should watch the documentary on the film as well called The Best Worst Movie. It's up on Netflix as well.
Filmed (and directed i think) by the kid in the movie and it follows the father of the film as they go to all these Troll 2 showings around the country and then the director and the cast all meet up (minus the mother of the film, though she does appear)

Inside Llewyn Davis was full of sad and g chords

I heard it was an hour longer then it needed to be, can you verify?

**Odesseiron** · 2013-12-29 18:44

True it was almost 3 hours. Actually Scorsese's cut is supposedly 4, which is insane. The humor is so dark though, I loved it. It was a fast 3 hours and I enjoyed it all. Was just fun to see how over the top it could get.

Watched Rush, was meh, nothing great nothing bad. Got around to watching Don Jon finally, don't know what all the craze was about, all I could think the whole movie was about how I wanted to punch him and his annoying voice in the head, kind of ruined the whole movie for me. Out of The Furnace was a good flick, just felt like it kind of dragged, thought it would have been a bit better

Definitely

I loved the movie, but it's the same thing over and over. They could've and should've cut it down to 2 hours, maybe less. All the best parts and important story would still fit.

Watched 42 the other night. Very good movie on Jackie Robinson. Wife couldn't even tell it was Harrison Ford in the movie.

Good to hear. I love baseball and haven't watched a good baseball flick in awhile.

Wolf of Wallstreet. Just saw a preview for it the other night and was immediately interested. Without hesitation I'll say since Basketball Diaries I'm a Leo fan. Excited to check this one out.

Anyone watch Grudge Match? Previews look funny as hell.

**Melena** · 2013-12-30 22:05

Judging by how bad it did in theaters last week I don't think anyone saw it. It got shit on hard by reviews.

Should watch Money Ball and Trouble with the Curve if you haven't.

**gt_killa** · 2013-12-31 04:16

The Wolf on Wallstreet

I half watched Money Ball while cleaning house one night it was on tv. Thanks for reminding me. I'll sit down and watch it soon. Forgot about Trouble With The Curve. I'll check that out too!

Watched the secret life of Walter Smitty. Ben still goes dramatic and it isn't bad. Some funny scenes, with great cinematography. Heart warmer moving and Kirstin Wiig is hot.
