I recently watched both 'The Departed' and 'Crash' I liked both but prefered 'Crash" I have a feeling though that 'The Departed' will get better with additional viewings. I also bought 'Million Dollar Baby' & 'No Country For Old Men' that have yet to be watched. So with all four of these movies I have the last four Academy Award winning Movies for best picture.

I saw Crash over a year ago...I liked it when I saw it.
The Departed looked too violent for me.
We bought the DVD..."Children of Men"- my mom said she had wanted to really see it, but she said she couldn't understand it at all after watching it.
I like the movie "Premonition".
The best movie I have seen in the past year was "Transformers". They are suppose to be filming part 2 in Bethlem, PA....which isn't too far away from me.

I liked "Next" with Nicholas Cage. It got bad reviews, but I thought it was pretty good.

I saw The Mist on Saturday. It was good, but I hated the ending. I loved the Departed when I saw it, and wound up buying the movie. Alvin and the Chipmunks was good, too. I also saw I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry on Saturday. It was funny for the most part. However, the best "newer" movie I've seen recently is Lake Dead, one of those After Dark 8 Films to Die For.

I liked The Mist but that had to be one of the if not the most depressing endings to a movie. Dave Matthews had a funny cameo in Chuck and Larry and he also has a funny one in You Don't Mess With The Zohan.......

I've seen Crash. I didn't get what all of the hype was about... I saw Children of men. It was good but a bit depressing... Transformers was good. I want to see Premonition. I've heard it's good.

The Mist was good, It had a lot of really good CGI, but, I'm with you about the end. Man it sucked! I actually got p.i.s.s.e.d...

Untraceable looks really good. I wonder when it's out on DVD...

I finally, finally got around to watching the Rob Zombie remake of Halloween...and I liked it. Sure, it was bloody and gory, but what does one expect from Rob Zombie?

Some parts of it follow the original, but the first part of the movie is totally different from the original, except for the fact that Mikey (as one of the guys at the Mental Inst. calls him) kills his sis and her bfriend. The basic premise is still the same, but Zombie did throw in some new stuff. The DVD has an alternate ending, but I didn't watch it, so I don't know how different an ending it is.

I thought Teeth would be a laugh going by the trailer but it was the worst film I've seen all year, bored me silly.

I watched The Game Plan, with The Rock. I didn't think I would like it, but it wound up being good.

Hanc*ck was pretty good, interesting story and a few really funny parts. I'd give it a 6/10

My husband and son are at the matinee for Hanc0ck right now, I thought about going...but I have guests this weekend, so I can't really take off and leave ...but after seeing the not so great review...I figured I'd wait for DVD, if I see it at all.

I finally saw The Departed. It was good. Violent, lots of cussing, a surprise ending. A good "mob" movie. 7.5/10
