The Family Stone...

[heatherrae]

I watched this last night on IDemand. I have to say that it was the most insepid, annoying POS I have seen in a long time. The characters were entirely unlikable, and by the end you will hope they all just STFU and quit crying. It's supposed to be a comedy, and they try to get deep and poignant. It doesn't work. It isn't funny. It isn't touching. It is just a waste of $3.95.

i watched derailed last night, it was pretty good
and nanny mcphee 2 days ago and it was cute

Derailed was cool, but I figured it out very early on in the movie. I still liked it though. =-) I haven't seen Nanny McPhee yet. I watched "Just Friends" the other night and it was suprisingly very funny.

Wolf Creek had me biting my nails. Hostel seemed like it tried a little too hard. It definitely was not up to snuff with other Tarentino works.

LOL...can you tell I watch lots of movies on tv?

My wife and I saw it in the theatre. We enjoyed watching it but a couple of things bugged me. Couldn't stand Diane Keaton's character and the obvious lesson they were trying to ram down the audience's throat about the gay couple.

I guess we were supposed to hate Sarah Jessica parker's character but I dug her.

Couldn't believe that one dude bascially stole his brother's woman from him.

At the end when the bus drove away I thought someone was going to be standing there, but they weren't.

I loved to hate the movie I guess.

Your honor, I submit to you evidence in part, that women once married or attached to man, become boring!

Well, I was trying not to put any spoilers in here, but the sisters and brothers thing just ticked me off. That would NOT FLY in real life.

Sarah Jessica Parker's character was the only one that was likable, at all. I hated the mother, sister, Sarah's sister, the groom, etc, etc. I usually like everyone...lol.

Exactly. I mean that family was f'cked up in the head morally the only one with any sense was Sarah Jessica's character.

Everything totally backfired for the makers of that movie I think. Parker was the only likable person out of the whole lot of them. The movie couldnt make up its mind if it was going to be serious or funny, shit or get off the pot I say. And that scene where Keaton and Nelson were in bed and he starts feeling up her mastectomy scar, fuckin sick. I feel vindicated now since I told my girlfriend that movie would suck ass before we even sat down and watched it.

My wife and I chose that movie at a 12 screen multiplex for one reason, and the reason we often choose movies when we go out: no teenagers were watching it.

We shared the theatre with about four other couples so it was nice and quiet. It was a good movie to provoke discussion about relationships and such.

Like I said, I really like Sarah Jessica Parker. She was hot as a conservative prude too.

I saw the "Skeleton Key" last night - basically a run of the mill suspence thriller - but the end was cool.

 

[heatherrae]

I loved that movie reno! LOL. I was surprised how much I liked it.
