My Thoughts:

It has been years since I seen the first movie (Analyze This)... and this is the first time I ever seen this movie. But not seeing the first one in so long didn't hurt my enjoyment of this one at all. I enjoyed this movie... found it to be pretty fun. But I believe I remember liking the first part more. I at least didn't find it as funny as I expected to. But it was definitely worth the hour and a half I put into watching it.

My Thoughts:
Well, a movie i was very interested to watch. Beacuse of the first one. Didnt really know what to expect, but i liked the trailer, and i have heard good things about it aswell. So, i have to say that the movie didnt disappoint me at all. I really enjoyed actually. The story was good, and Nic Cage did his part good IMO. (was good to see Cage as Johnny Blaze and Ghost Rider again.) And i just have to say a few words about the makeup and the visual efects in this movie. Personally i think they did one heck of a job. Just awesome IMO. And for those who doesnt know if they want to watch this or not, but liked the first one. I personally highly recommand it to give it a try.
And down the line, i think i will buy this one in 3D. It looked like it would be a great movie in 3D!
For those who has seen it in 3D, what you think?

And Pete, i think you will like this one!

My Thoughts:
A movie that i've heard alot about. A movie i wasnt sure if i've seen before or not. Didnt remember it anyways. This is a movie that i've always been very curious to watch. Just heard great stuff about it, and heard great things about Charlie Sheen and Micheal Douglas's parts aswell. And wow, let me just say even with high hopes for the movie. I wasnt disappointed at all! I really enjoyed it from start to finish. Even though its an all movie. They did alot of great things with the movie for its time. Its a special movie i would say. Not for everyone maby. But i really enjoyed it, and the both MD and CS did great leads in the movie! And now i'm looking forward to check out the new Wall Street movie. See if i get some time to check it out next week maby. But yeah, i highly recommand it.

This one i was really looking forward to watch. Liked the trailer for the movie, and it was fun to see Matt Damon in a family movie, instead of all the action movies he does. It was interesting actually. The movie itself i really enjoyed. It was a real cute and kinda sad story\plot. The movie was a bit different than i thought it would be, but it was a warm movie i would say. And i think both Scarlett Johansen and Matt Damon did a great job as the leads. A movie for the whole family, that i highly recommand for everyone.

My Thoughts:
Oh wow.. Let me start of by saying that i've seen a few exorcism movies trough out. And many of them are good, and some just suck. Some is very beliveble, and some is just way too out there! And many of the movies are based on true events etc.. But this one was a bit different IMO, the whole movie was shot as an documentary, only using a handheld camera trough out the movie. Wich made me get the "Real" feeling for the movie. The story is the same ofc as the other exorcism movies. But this one was made in a very good way, and it had a few twists in the movie aswell. (wich is never a bad thing) And some of the things they did with so little just impressed me. Its one of my favourite exorcism movies, up there with 'The Rite' . A real good horror movie that i recommand for you horror lovers out there! Had me glued to the tv for the whole 1.25hrs about :D

I understand ya But for me it was kinda nice to see that they did something else with the whole exorcism genre Nice to see that they tried to do something "original" if i can call it that.. Even though the story's in the movies will never change.

But yeah, a real good movie imo =)

I'm sorry that you didnt enjoy it that much =)

My Thoughts:

I just finished watching this movie. Going into it I must admit that I was a little concerned as I never read the comics. I only ever seen the previous movies and some of the animated series from a few years back. So most of the mutants in this movie I wasn't familiar with. And it was right strange for me to see Professor X both young and with hair as well as walking. I was also surprised at the type of relationship Professor X shared with Mystique. Though obviously I don't know if that is the way it was in the comics as well or not. So going strictly by what I know from the previous movies and somewhat on the animated series I found I really enjoyed this... (what is this btw, a prequel? a reboot of the films? I guess that depends on how well this film did) I found I really enjoyed this film. It has a good story that kept my interest... some fun new mutants to watch... as well as some good action. I would recommend this film.

My Thoughts:
Finally i had some time to get around to watch this one. (something i was looking forward to) I never know what to expect when a sequal comes so many years after the original. But i really enjoyed the first and original Wall Street. It started of ok, a bit older MD then the first movie. But for me the movie was a bit slow at times, and the i didnt like the story\plot in the movie as much as i did in the first movie. I thought the movie would be much more abut Gordon Gekko and his way back to Wall Street. But it wasnt much about him at all, some here and some there. He had much more screentime in the end of the movie, wich was disappointing for me. Personally i think they could have done a bit more with the movie, and give Mr.Gekko a much bigger part IMO. Even though it looks like Mr.Gekko is a changed man, he is still up to his old tricks etc. It was an ok movie, wich lasted for 2hrs and 13 movies. A bit to long imo. But and ok movie. A kinda gotta watch, if you liked the first one.

My Thoughts:
This is a big movie in Norway i should say, the media gave it perfect all over etc. And it even got 5 Amanda nominations (The Amanda Awards is the Norwegian answer to the Oscars) wich will be live today on tv. So i was very interested in if the movie was as good as said. And on some parts i have to agree, like the story of the movie. I have to agree that it was a strong and important behind it. I got their message. And the lead actor (Kristoffer Joner) is nominated for the best male lead actor for his role in the movie. I will agree aswell, one of the best parts i've seen him in. But there was a few things i didnt like about the movie, f.ex time jumps. It starts in 2012, and suddenly your back in 1985 etc. Not to big of a fan of that. But a good movie, that i enjoyed and a movie that i think the Norwegian people should watch! A movie that i recommand.

A movie that i havent seen in yeears. But a movie i have wanted to watch now for a while, a finally i got around to it. I didnt remember much of the movie at all. A good ol' fashion action movie, wich i truly enjoyed trough out the whole thing. It was good to see Nic Cage as a action hero again. As he was back in the day. The movie had me glued to the tv, and the story was good aswell. And i really liked the part of Nic Cage here. (Not always i do that) Just a very good old fashion action movie between Jerry Bruckheimer and Nic Cage, and they all made it work really good. And i liked the blu-ray version very good. A movie that i recommand all to watch. (for those who hasnt yet)

My Thoughts:
Well, this a movie that i didnt even know was in the Hannibal series, before a few years ago! When a friend of mine asked me if i've seen this one before. And i didnt know about it, since its so many years before the other movies. And i havent read the books or anything. And for the movie i really enjoyed it, from start to finish. It was nice to see Will Petersen in something else than "Gil Grissom" I really enjoyed his part in this. What i didnt like with the movie however was that Sir Anthony Hopkins wasnt in it. Something i was hoping for, since he is in the other movies i mean. I dont know if it is a reason since they did that, that way. But other then that, a real good movie, with a interesting story. And a good horror movie! And i recommand this one for all the horror lovers\Hannibal lovers, that havent seen this one yet.
