Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
World War Z ended up being much better than I thought it would. Don't expect the movie to be anything like the book (if you've read it). They've simply created a whole new story and slapped the title on it.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Has anyone seen Kick Ass? I heard good things about it but it was from my comic book friends so their opinions are being thrown out (especially after the new Superman).
What is Kick Ass comparable to?

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
IT is awesome; somewhere in here I have a review of it. IMO a must see. Part two comes out this summer.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Kick Ass is definitely a good movie, I'm looking forward to seeing the next installment.
Just saw This Is The End last week, I honestly enjoyed the shit out of that movie. If you're a Rogen fan it's definitely a must-see. |

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Is Kick Ass worth buying in the $7.88 bin at Wal Mart? (Sounds like it) and Can I get a movie comparison like "If you like _______, then you'll like Kick Ass"
And Yes This is the End (Which I've been hyping for a while now) is about as funny as a movie gets. Its similar IMO in terms of laughs as Superbad, 40 year old Virgin and the Hangover 1.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Well, I saw Kick Ass finally.
Good movie. It held my attention throughout. I liked how it was relatable for the most part (then there was quiet a few over the top scenes). I'm gonna have to check out the new Kick Ass moving coming out which Jim Carrey stares in but is protesting. ( Jim Carrey’s Rant Against ‘Kick-Ass 2’ and 13 Other Stars Who Hate Their Own Films - The Daily Beast ) I'd give it a 7.5/10. Good recommendation guys.

I liked WWZ. Only complaint i had was that the ending seemed a bit rushed.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Saw White House Down Saturday and Monsters University today.
White House Down wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Decent leave your brain at home and not think too much of the glaring issues that the movie gives you. Matinee or Redbox/Netflix it. Monsters University is a very solid prequel to Monsters Inc. The family and I enjoyed it every much. Several nods to Monsters Inc in it. Fun for the whole family.

Saw Side Effects over the weekend. It was not bad, not great. Jude Law was good. Worth a watch
