"Ghost Town" with Ricky Gervais, Greg Kinnear
surprisingly funny take on a cliched premise.
. Kristen Wiig is masterful in a supporting role as a surgeon.

Yeah, I bet if I had seen this at 12 it would have been a favorite of mine.JL21 wrote:Definitely, that's another one of those scenes that makes me think DePalma's a hack. Ironically enough, though, that's his one movie that I genuinely like. It probably has more to do with nostalgia. I saw it at age 12 and thought it was neat.

I saw it with my then-18-year old brother. In the opening scene where the little girl gets blown up, my brother burst out laughing. I remember thinking "Wow, my brother's a dick."The Third Man wrote:Yeah, I bet if I had seen this at 12 it would have been a favorite of mine.

That was a pretty big shock for me, wasn't expecting it at all. The scene that kind of made me laugh out loud was that little dweeb getting his head blown off in the elevator.JL21 wrote:I saw it with my then-18-year old brother.

The Untouchables is like The Shawshank Redemption to me, as in, when it's on TV, I have to watch it.
Connery and Garcia make the movie.

I just wrapped up a really, really cool unknown underground horror flick called "Triangle". I'm pretty impressed.

Watched Shutter Island, and while I got some of the ending, I didn't get it all. Overall, it was decent. DiCaprio put on a pretty good performance, and the final scene was a neat way to wrap it all up.
