I thought I would love Tree of Life - we turned it of after 30 minutes, and we never do that. 0/10 for me.
eXistenZ - 8.0/10 - Really underrated movie IMO. Had seen it before, forgot how-like it was.Inception
Waste Land - 7.5/10
Documentary on netflix. Fantastic look at the recycling industry in RIO ~2008-2010. A little too political at times but overall a great look at how the other side lives.
Also watched the first three episodes of Veep and the each episode seems to get stronger and stronger. I did not really like the first episode much, but by the third episode I am kind of loving it. Tony Hale is so freaking awesome I am very happy to be watching in something again and I really like Iannucci's writing (I'm a huge fan of In The Loop). Looks like there are only five more episodes, so will probably burn through those pretty quick.
THE TREE OF LIFE (9/10)
I heard how polarized people are of this movie--you either hate it or love it. Personally, I thought it's a wonderful movie with gorgeous cinematography. While the story itself is a bit hard to grasp and atypical of a Hollywood narrative, I think people miss the point if that is what they're expecting of this movie. After the movie ended, I thought about it for a bit and I think the best way to approach this movie is treat it like eating your favorite slice of pie--it invokes all the good memories and emotions of your childhood and all that the memories entail--love, loss, anger, family, friendship, etc.
On a technical standpoint, you can pause the film at any given moment and the composition and lighting is immaculate. One of the most beautifully shot film I've ever seen, but what else do you expect from Terrence Mallick?
Wrath of the Titans 7/10 a hell lot better than clash of the titans.
Thats like saying Episode II is better than Episode I, while technically true I am not impressed.
I felt the same way at first...and didn't like "In the Loop" at first either. i think once you realize the writing and directing style, you grow to like it. I thought the movie was great once I realized I *did* like it..and Veep is so well written and clever that I thought it was great. Great cast in that show.

Veep is the one played by that girl from Seinfeld right?
It didn't work for me either... and I'm really into golf. A lot of great golfers really dig this movie. I'll give it another chance at some point, but I probably won't feel differently about it. Maybe if I'm in the proper mood.finally saw Caddyshack for the first time last night, I give it a 1 out 10. it wasn't even funny, what was so great about this movie?
It's considered one of the most rewatchable movies. I watched it once 6 years ago. Here's what I had to say about it in my movie table:The Fifth Element 8/10
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Mila Jovovich's titties were excellent! :thumpbsup:
