I've been wanting to watch Valhalla Rising ever since it debuted. Thanks for the reminder!!


my last 5 movies:

1. The Grey: a thriller starring Liam Neeson who gives a very strong performance. Crew of ex-cons working in Alaska fight to survive against a large pack of wolves. Very surprised how much I ended up enjoying this movie. Dark, entertaining, suspenseful...nicely done. Very few movies would I ever watch again, I would definitely watch this one again. 8.5/10

(edit: Just went thru and read the rest of this thread, I see some people weren't pleased with The Grey...where as I'm saying it was a really good film. To each their own!!)

2. End of Watch: one of those gritty cop dramas that attempt a realistic approach on life in law enforcement. I thought it was a pretty good movie. Working in law enforcement myself, there are some things in the movie that made me roll my eyes...but I do think they captured the brotherhood of law enforcement in general. I like everything I've seen Michael Pena in and this might be his best role yet. 7/10

3. Brave - animated movie starts off slow, then things get better after the girl visits the witch. Ends up a fairly enjoyable film. Probably my least favorite Pixar movie, but I still liked it. 6.5/10

4. Hugo - animated movie starts off really slow, but absolutely beautiful visuals/cinematography. Honestly, it couldn't keep my wife and I attention, we turned it off after about 30 minutes...but visually the movie is beautiful. Can't give this movie a rating since I didn't watch the whole thing. N/A

5. In Their Skin - a very disturbing, creepy independent movie reminiscent of The Strangers, even if its not as good. About a murderous family obsessed with finding "the perfect life". Worth the watch if you're into movies of the kind. 6.5/10


Really looking forward to seeing Zero Dark Thirty, hearing nothing but great things about the film.
