I finished watching it at 5:30 in the morning, so I can't really remember a lot of it. I probably should have mentioned that.

INCEPTION]

It's not very often that a movie rises from the junk in Hollywood nowadays.
You don't need to see this in IMAX, I'm pretty sure if I saw it in IMAX for the first time my brains would come out my ears. I even thought I was in an IMAX theater when I was watching it because I felt so much in the movie. I thought I wasn't going to be able to hear the movie at first because of some REALLY LOUD kids in the back and front of me, but as soon as the movie got going I didn't hear a single thing from them again. This movie almost completely took hold of you because of how complex and visually complex it was, that's scary. btw, I thought the anti-gravity visuals in the hallway were genius along with reason why it was anti-gravity. ONLY A FREAKIN GENIUS WOULD BE ABLE TO THINK SOMETHING AS AWESOME AS THAT UP. As far as the story, I'll get back to you on that. I've still got to see this a couple more times. Also, I had no idea that it was going to be as emotional as that, and sell it so well. And I loved how tame the CGI was, I almost came to like it seeing how controlled it was.
I hope to see this get some Oscars, let's hope the same thing doesn't happen like what happened to The Dark Knight.

4.5/5

Citizen Kane

When a movie made in the 40's tells a story better than most movies in the 21st century......you know there is something wrong.

I was incredibly worried that this would be nothing but metaphors challenging the audience. Whilst the metaphors are there, I happily ignored them. The rise and fall of Charles Foster Kane is a genuinely interesting story that is told extremely well. And that's really it. I have nothing original to add to what has already been said about this, so I wont even try.

I think the most interesting thing about Citizen Kane is how it almost completely avoids any supposedly omniscient narrator; it's very much about subjectivity. I'm not so sure if I like the story all that much.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Not bad.

Inception

While highly entertaining and being one of the better movies to come out this year beside Shutter Island and Toy Story 3, I don't see what's the big deal about it.

The Chaser / Chugyeogja

I loved it, all of it felt real and the acting was great. It has a complete different approach to the horror / thriller genre, it's a actually slasher flick but a great one.

I've been into Asian cinema a lot lately. Any Asian suggestions anyone ?

The Trip - BRAWL 2012

The Killer is meant to be pretty good.

GIANT ALIEN BANANAS FROM OUTER SPACE UPDATE THREAD!

G-Force

One of the stupidest movies ever, that's for sure.
