Last movie you watched......

Expected to make the most noise at the Globes ceremony, to be carried live on NBC from 8-11 p.m. EST, is ... "The Artist," with six nominations, including best musical or comedy, directing and writing honors for Michel Havanavicius, and acting slots for Jean Dujardin and Berenice Bejo.

I hope you meant "under" 50, because the idea of the 50+ set shunning a film that is both in black and white AND silent seems a little ass-backwards.

 

Horrible Bosses tonight. A few out-loud laughs, but mostly just OK.

 

I watched my DVD of "The Green Hornet" from Netflix. Yes, I knew I was taking a gamble here.

Now, I'm not an incredibly demanding movie viewer, especially with high-action superhero-type movies, but this is easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

Seth Rogen plays an aspiring superhero who seems to be just making it up as he goes along. Apparently co-writer Rogen and the director and producers used the same strategy in making the film. I just had to warn anyone on this board who has any thought of watching this.

 

Obviously and of course. Fixed.

 

Ding, ding, ding on all accounts.

My wife's a bigger baseball fan -- and bigger fan of my Mizzou classmate, Brad Pitt, than I am -- but she loved it. Says it's her favorite movie of 2011.

Me? Meh.

 

Cedar Rapids, with Ed Helms as an insurance agent at a convention. Also has John C. Reilly, Anne Heche, Sigourney Weaver and Isiah Whitlock from The Wire, who has two outstanding Wire references. Pretty funny, I always like Reilly. Kind of a different role than we've seen Helms in, I thought.

 

No way is "Moneyball" the best movie of 2011. I felt the same way as Greenhorn.

 

Finding Nemo. Never saw it, and my girlfriend is a big Disney fan. Gotta do what you gotta do

 

Whoever they cast as Jeremy Giambi was a much more egregious case of odd casting.

This movie suffered from being based on a true story. As mentioned, there just wasn't enough dramatic tension. Wonderfully shot and acted, I loved the score, but the lack of drama held it back from being great.

 

Tinker Tailor in about 20 minutes. I wanted War Horse but I can plainly see I am not going to win that one.

 

Saw Tinker Tailor myself this afternoon. Heard rumblings about the plot being difficult to follow, but I had no problems with it. Casting is great across the board, but Gary Oldman in particular is very impressive.
