Paranormal activity. Cost: 11000 dollars. Scares: about 10 times more than any Saw sh*t. Well done little flick. Enjoy it in a movie theater with some company if possible, as it's much more entertaining when people are screaming alla round you. Like the Blair Witch Project, not really about anything, but a good effort.

I enjoyed Zombieland.... funny enough and entertaining enough to keep my interest.
the weird thing is that they stopped the movie to attend to some guy that was unresponsive and passed out (with huge pupils- the EMT said).  He WAS A ZOMBIE I TELL YOU!
they gave us free passes to another movie as a consolation.  I am going to go see Pandorum.... Hey, it's free.  what have I got to lose?

Caught it yesterday and it was definately worth the price of admission. The only downside is that all the zombies looked alike. I liked how they related the plague to bad hamburgers. That had to make the people at PETA happy.

just caught Die Another Day on TV (and I thought Spy Who Loved Me was a bad Bond, ouch).. Halle Berry and the invisible car were bad enough but Pierce Brosnan surfing a tsunami caused by a giant sun deathray machine was about all I could take

The Invention of Lying - 6.25/10. It's a date movie/chick flick. Not as funny as I had hoped. It had it's moments. Predictable. But an enjoyable movie.

I went to see 9 in the theaters for a number of reasons:
 
Tim Burton's name was involved
The animation looked like a cool style
They had Coheed and Cambria in a preview for it (any movie with prog in the preview is worth a watch Wink)
 
All I can say to you is to skip this movie at all costs. I would claim that it's "style without substance", but there's really not much style to comment on besides its overall Burtonesque "dark" feel. I was disappointed, to say the least.

Just saw Viridiana yesterday. Not hilarious, but very pointed rebuke of Catholicism. Loved both of those you mentioned; I also loved Belle du Jour. Next up is That Obscure Object of Desire.  Still need to see Tristana, Los Olivados, and The Criminal Life of Archibaldo Cruz.

I'm going to see That Obscure Object tomorrow. Or today, actually, if it's Thursday today. Sleepy

Be Kind Rewind     One of the zaniest and most clever comedies I've seen in a while with Jack Black and Mo Def as buddies who start making their own no-budget versions of famous movies, culminating in a bio about Fats Waller.  Heartfelt and deeply funny.

Wanted    Highly entertaining and completely absurd actioneer with Morgan Freeman heading a fraternity of assassins who train a young man to avenge his father's murder at the hands of one of their own.  James McAvoy excellent as the trainee.  Well made, some good twists, based on the comic, reminiscent of the Remo Williams character.

last was actually,

 Herzog's - Wild Blue Yonder

a simple little Sci-Fi scenario narrated by Brad Dourif, which is used mostly as the glue that holds together various scenes of both natural environments and astronauts messing around in space, the musical accompaniment was actually the best part IMO and really enhanced the mood of the "story" , once again I use the term "story" loosely as its more about the beautiful shots than the actual plot, unique but also just a bit piece Herzog must have made to indulge his fetish for filming unusual territories

6/10

Huh? Shocked One of the best westerns ever in my opinion.
 
Apparently my complaint is not unusual: his character was totally wooden to me. As an actor, I can appreciate what he was trying to do, but in the end, it just didn't have the effect I would've liked. (But that's just my stuffy, annoying little inner acting critic coming out and saying "Hi there!")
 
Also the recurring theme song ground my gears into dust
