Saw RED, Blade (the one from the 90's ) and Kick Ass. RED was fun, Blade was... cliched, mostly, and Kick Ass was great.

My gripe with Kick Ass is that it probably should have been called Hit Girl instead. ;)

Saw 50/50 and it kicked all sorts of ass. Seth Rogan is one of my most hated type-cast actors, but lately his roles haven't sucked from what I've heard and he hasn't ruined any films for the most part (aside from green Hornet, :ugh:) but he was good in this.

I also nearly lost my shit due to a family history of losing family members to cancer so some stuff really hit home, keep that in mind when seeing this, it CAN be gloomy at times

Watched "Batman : Under the Red Hood" and aside from the Joker looking a bit silly, it was really good. Neil Patrick Harris fit really well as Nightwing/Dick Grayson too, who is becoming one of my favorite superheroes.

Watched Atonement recently. Everyone NEEDS to see that movie, regardless of what they think of Keira Knightley. I personally dont care for her.

Not a kick-ass type movie, but it kicked ass

Tinker Tailer Soldier Spy.

Fantastic, surely some Oscars in there. Really, outrageously well acted and wonderfully put together.

Finally got round to buying True Grit yesterday, made it halfway through before I had to go to bed. Hailee Steinfeld is IN-CREDIBLE. Best performance from anyone her age I've ever seen. Can't believe she's only 14. :ugh:

Time and time again the Coen brothers are proving to me that I will watch anything they make. I'd even watch it if they made a film out of Noddy.

"The Atomic Brain", "Swimming with Sharks"

I could probably just start a new thread to ask this, but does any one have any good recommendations for some good old (1930s-60s) gangster movies? I really haven't watched any so any suggestions at all would be greatly appreciated.

The moon must have aligned with something weird and struck me this week, since I`ve been watching Akira, Ghost in the Shell I & II the last days.

Even though I`m not big on anime (I enjoyed these films), I`m thinking that I should give it another chance!
