I thought it was a great flick. The nightly L.A. scenery was pretty great, and his character was just a complete creepy sociopath. It's a shame people will flock out to see complete shit movies like Ouija, while a film like this will probably fade into cult obscurity.

I watched the first half of the Carrie remake thinking it sucked and that I wouldn't like it but i realized that changed when I started getting nervous before the prom. I knew what was going to happen but I had really started to like Carrie.. It wasn't great but worth a watch, IMO.

I'm watching this movie with Paul Walker called Hours right now. It's pretty good. I like Paul Walker. He seems like a good dude.

I could see Jake Gyllenhaal in contention for best actor award in Nightcrawler.

Fury is highly recommended if anyone on here still hasn't seen it.

Just saw Chef by Jon Favreau. What a terrific movie -- Favreau just knows how to tell a good story.

It's amazing to me that the same guy who wrote Chef and wrote Swingers, also wrote Couples Retreat.

Watched Fight Club for the first time. What an overrated movie. Probably will never watch again.

It's a feel good movie. I really liked it, but it was pretty obvious where the story was going throughout.

Would definitely recommend Big Hero 6 for parents. All the kids in the theater loved it, and like most animated movies these days, there were good jokes for the grown ups too.

Agreed, this was the best animated movie I've seen since Toy Story 3.

There's just something about Favreau's style that I really like. It's so simple and authentic. Even though the movie was predictable, the characters are really well developed and nothing feels forced.
