Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
This summer has been great for movies but we need a drama movie. I guess those don't come out in the summer? I'm REALLY looking forward to American Gangster
Movie Trailers, Movie Previews and Movie Clips at Movies.com Coming out early November. Ridley Scott as director. Denzel and Russel Crow. That is going to be sick. |

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
I didn't say I didn't like it, I just said it wasn't a good movie.
I thought Jack's accent was the worst botched Bostonian accent EVER. (not that it's the reason the movie wasn't good.) I think it was the overall story and the directing.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
The director did win an Oscar for the movie. But I will have to take your word on the botched Bostonian accent, I can not coment on that...

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
If I remember correctly...even the critics thought it wasn't that great.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
while I'm definitely psyched about American Gangster, I think one of the first top notch dramas is going to be We Own the Night with Mark Wahlberg, Joaquin Phoenix, Robert Duvall and the extremely fine Eva Mendes.
We Own the Night trailers and video clips on Yahoo! Movies

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
just got back from Stardust and all I gotta say is anyone who is a fan of "The Princess Bride" u definitely need to see this movie. Awesome special effects added to the fantasy in the movie, the lead did a very good job transforming through the movie from a pitied character to a hero, and the comedy came at perfect moments and didn't seem forced except for maybe a couple scenes. It wasn't as good as "The Princess Bride" but is definitely worth a watch.
