Re: Movies - what you seen and was it any good?
The Good Shepherd.
It's worth a watch. The whole puppet cast of Team America seems to be in it, Matt Damon, Alec Baldwin. Angelina Jolie is miscast in her role.
Anyway the story is based around the foundation of the CIA in the 40s - 60s. It's a depressing look into the paranoia and suspicion surrounding the people involved. Skull & Bones WASPs protecting America from the Soviet menace. A bit long but overall pretty good.
3 1/2 out of 5.

Re: Movies - what you seen and was it any good?
Watched De Ja Vu.....not bad, not that good...but not bad.
Let's Go To Jail....or something like that....not bad at all!!! Quite funny.
Looking for Comedy in the Muslim World....so so!
I'd actually prefer them to make high quality miniseries' of Gaimen, Ennis, Miller etc. personally.....like Carnivale kind of stylee....I think you can in many ways get away with more!!!
Zehner.....Mirror Mask is on UBC in May....written by Neil Gaimen.....should be good (a cartoon it is).

Re: Movies - what you seen and was it any good?
Saw a movie called Running Scared at the weekend which was very watchable if not completely original. 8/10
Saw The Prestige the other week and loved it. 9/10

Re: Movies - what you seen and was it any good?
Running Scared (I assume not the Crstal/Hines one?) is kind of good ain't it? Paul Walker's in some good films....a bit Tarantino-esqueish???
I'm here for you Zehner man....actually been meaning to order it from Fat Chris for a while...but he's backlogged with all my shit already!
Not a movie but watched the first 4 episodes of a new series called Drive....pretty good.
Also got a show called the Lost Room....a sci-fi channel series....looks quite good!!!

Re: Movies - what you seen and was it any good?
^ I mean Mirror Mask??? Got a note on my fridge for it (been there for 4 months).
He lost his connection for a bit, but he's doing okay now....but I might ask if he slackens again (is the Wire any good? I've had the first four for a while now and not watched them yet...okay 10 minutes or so but didn't GRAB me???).
