I really enjoyed "Chocolat" and "Like Water For Chocolate"...hmmm recurring theme here or what?

I loved "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown" by director Pedro Almovadar - his film "Tie me up, Tie me down" and "High Heel" were good too.

Another great film is "Brotherhood of the Wolf" which is originally a French film but you can get it dubbed in English.

We made a huge mistake at the cottage this weekend, and rented "The Duplex". God, it was awful. Just awful. Sent our stress levels right through the roof.
Then we watched "Matchstick Man", which I really enjoyed.

Oh... "Brotherhood of the Wolf" was good, Mauvais!

This week we watched Spiderman 2 at the Imax. It was cool!

Secret Window - not all that great but I loved watching Johnny Depp.

Whole Ten Yards - Very cute! It was pretty amusing.

I just rented/watched Godsend yesterday, it was alright, but nothing I would suggest running out and renting. It was very predictable....

I have a movie night planned with my brother tomorrow night. Nothing new, just some old great favorites. "Monty Pythons In stearch of the holy grail", "Four Rooms", "Office Space" and one that he's seen but I never have "Murder by Death" and a new one for us both "Butterfly Effect"
I am not so sure about that last one, I have heard mixed opinions. Someone compared it to Donnie Darko which is one of my favorites, so I will try it and see what I think. I can't wait to have a nice quite movie night. Nice and relaxing... especially since the week after next I will be spending with in-laws on vacation. Not just a few - but ALL of them! hehe... Talk about murder by death. We'll see just how that goes.

Me and hubby rented this movie called Spun. not only was it good, but the music was by Billy Corgan ( my all time fav. from Smashing Pumpkins) and he did a duet with Tori Amos in it. plus he had a cameo. one of the only times i have ever seen him in a movie. I think we watched it 3 times before we took it back.

I LOVE Murder by Death! It's hilarious!

Last night a friend and I saw Supersize Me. Very good.

[mauvaisroux]

Office Space is hilarious. Did you ever see Swimming With Sharks - another great movie!

Murder by Death was great too. Weekend with ALL of your in-laws sounds more like that Agatha Christie movie (Ten Little Indians? or was it called And Then There Were None?) where a group of people get together for a weekend at a mansion and they end up getting bumped off one by one

Dang- I'm sure ellis would know the right name of that movie!

[ellis]

I can't remember the name of that one, but what about Clue? That was good. Except for the option of umpteen endings.

[mauvaisroux]

Not to mention the cheesy acting

I think it was Ten Little Indians but they did a remake and renamed it to be more politicaly correct.

I LOVE Office Space!!! Kind of cathartic for DH, even though he isn't an office worker anymore!! (He spent almost 20 years doing that!!!)

[lizziness]

den - that movie is in my top 10 list for sure. My brother and I wound up watching that during our movie night. I absolutely love the fax machine scene and i swear to you, the guy who is always stressed and then gets hit by a truck... that is my dad to a tee!!

[dentrassi]

Office work SUCKS, doesn't it? I love it when they are beating up the machine and the guy goes back for one last kick...HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

I ALSO love ANYTHING by Monty Python (EVEN Jabberwocky!!)

[mauvaisroux]

I finally watched Kill Bill 2 - not bad. I can't say that it was one of my favourite movies ever (Volume 1 wasn't either) but I did enjoy them both.
