Hey Trout while I haven't seen this myself and like you everybody I know who's saw it really liked it but just wanted to say it wasn't straight to DVD it was in the movie theaters, not sure if it did well but I know a couple of people who first told me it was good saw it in the theater.
Warrior.
I was pleasantly surprised how emotionally involved I got in this movie. I thought it would be a pure suck-fest, like all the other MMA movies that go straight to DVD, but this one was a winner. I'll probably purchase this film.
Ya, I knew that -- I didn't mean that "Warrior" had gone straight to DVD, but meant that pretty much every other MMA movie did. My bad.
You're still a wuss who got man-handled in a bar by a chick and a bar stool. *points and laughs*
I didn't watch the trailer. Just came across it on Netflix and instantly watched it on my new wi-fi blue ray player.

I watched the documentary "Terror Island" this weekend. It's a first person account of the bombing in Oslo and the massacre at the Utoya Island in Norway last year.
The documentary is in Norwegian and is almost entirely made up of survivors (all of them very young) giving eyewitness accounts of what they experienced; but it has to be one of the most unsettling things I've ever watched.

Just went to see the new Sherlock Holmes. I liked it for the most part. The worst things about it were the ending (deus ex machina on a grand scale, and more than a little cheesy, stupid, and contrived), and Prof Moriarity's motives. He be all about da benjamins, yo. Most brilliant mind the world has ever known just wants to get a little more rich than he was before, through the most complicated plan anyone could possibly conceive and/or pull off.
Yeah.
But it was still a fun night at the movies, which is all that really matters in the end anyway. It helps that after 20 years the missus still lets me feel her boobs in darkened theaters.

That's because she can fantasize about one of the stars on the screen and she doesn't even have to close her eyes to do it;-)
Just kidding...kudos to you for keeping a little naughty in your marriage after so many years.

I would agree the ending that depicts him as pretty much doing it all for the money was a let down in what was other wise a pretty good movie. Maybe they wanted to keep it light hearted but I was expecting it to be to start a Europe war and increasing his funds to make it a global domination thing.

Contraband...taut...entertaining...a 7/10, maybe 8/10 for this 'what you see is what you get' genre.
I'd still rank Die Hard as the best well acted, well done, action movie of all-time. Or one of them at least. The movie is ****ing perfect.

That is what I was hoping for too, but when it just came down to the money, it was a let down. Otherwise I really liked it. I thought it was acted well and the story line was tight and clear. I also liked that they cleaned up the dialogue, not as in it was dirty words, but that they made the speaking more clear and easier to understand. The first movie Downey did a lot of mumbling. Even though the very end was cheesy on a whole other level it still cracked me up.

Yes. I think I liked the foreign version slightly more though I heard it left more out.

Came across Stone on Netflix with Edward Norton, De Niro, and Milan Jovovich. I hadn't heard of it, but really enjoy Norton's other films - this was a complete black hole that just sucked any positive vibes I had prior to starting it. It's not really dark, but just depressing and a bit weird. Worst film I've seen in a while.

I don't know what happened with Norton, but he has made some terrible decisions in regards to movies lately. Tremendous actor, but just doing it for me recently.
