The Grandmaster Saw this earlier in the year, but it's available on iTunes now and will watch it again tonight. This movie defies categorization. It looks like an action movie, but it's more an

I didn't like it. It was very gory. I'd give it a double bogey. I wasn't that scared, I was grossed out. I loved all the Alien movies (totally different, but that amount of "gore" I have no problem with.) Event Horizon not so much. 3/4 on the demonic scale.

If demonic type of horror bothers you, this movie is not for you, the ending brings an element that is pretty creepy.

The Visit. Bogey. I guess the "twist" was alright although the movie was more than that. One really eeeewwwww scene. It's not awful, but not as good as Sixth Sense or Signs.

Oh man, that disappoints me...I have a soft spot for Shyamalan. I like a lot of his stuff and think he's very talented. Signs is one of my favorite movies of all time.

TBH, I'm judging a little harshly. He's using shaky cam, documentary style, which I didn't like, the kid and his rapping was annoying and I'm judging the director a little more sternly than warrants because of his early work. If someone else made it, I probably would have given it a par.

I've actually read some good reviews on it, saying a lot of it is tongue in cheek and very self-deprecating. How scary would you say it was? Btw I'm easily scared.

Paddington - birdie. Funny and pleasant, what you'd expect from a well executed holiday family movie.

Concur! We just saw the 1PM matinee. Excellent and stayed true to the book. They left out a couple of things for time, but it was great.

That bear attack. The camera angles for that scene and the jumps and fights were very POV, like they were videoing w/Google Glass. If you've seen the Bourne movie where he jumps through the window, it's like that every scene.

The whale movie w/Thor looked pretty epic as well.

The Assassin

The Way. Had this on my Netflix queue for years. 

Birdie. I thought it would be a bit of a downer, but it's inspiring and great scenery.
