Watched a few movies, some of them i had seen before others were new to me.

Donnie Darko 8/10

Hypercube 5/10:

I like the original cube, this one not so much. Characters were almost directly imported from the first movie. Whilst it was visually not bad i kinda had a 'meh' feeling when i was watching this.

Bad Boys 2 5/10:

Way over the top like most Bay movies.

Gin gwai 10 4,5/10:

Laughed a few times because some of the scenes are really ridiculous. I expected more of a Pang Brothers movie.

Evolution 6,5/10:

Some things could've been better but overall a pretty funny movie.

Lucky Number Slevin 8/10:

Topcast, great acting and surprising twists.

Saw a couple of movies I've been meaning to watch this past weekend.

Ender's Game. 8/10. Very well done, follows the book quite closely, obviously with less details but still very well done.

Hunger Games Catching Fire. 8.5/10. Way better than I expected. Came right out of left field, or I didn't remember the 1st one very well. Have not read the books, but now I might.

Rush. 8/10. Very well done, even the wife liked it. Maybe not enough racing (or racing footage) for a racing movie.

Rid'd'ick. 6/10. Wasn't expecting much, didn't get much. B-movie backworld action flick.

If anyone has ever watched A Beautiful Mind, then you are my new best friend. This movie is very motivating and has one of the best climax.

Watched Gravity and Prisoners on my flight to HK. Both were great movies, Gravity creeped me out about being in space.

It's only up point is it's amazing visuals. Just because James Cameron invested the amount of money to feed Africa for a year (obviously joking) to make the camera. The plot is your basic Romeo and Juliet story thats a tad bit less poetic. I mean the concept of aliens, space travel, and world harvesting is a great idea and all but the plot just felt a bit linear. No offense, I'm no expert movie critic, but it was a bit too predictable.

On a side note, avatar is one of the reasons why i stay away from most 3d movies. Less than 5% of movies released are made with 3d cameras. The rest are just filtered in with a half ass 3d technology. This explains flat layers. Thats why I'm not willing to pay an extra 5-9 bucks for a 3d flick here unless it's "3d legit."

^^Agree with that. I've only seen it once and that was enough. Besides the visuals it was a pretty generic movie.
