In the theaters, Ray this last saturday 11/27.

Foxx was very good, but the movie was way too long and the flashbacks melodramatic.

Loose quote on the final cut from Ray Charles -- "Yeah, that's the way it happened, baby."

The movie is an unflinching portrait of a musical genius and flawed human being.
Yeah, it's long. But it's very, very good. Highly recommended.

In theatre: National Treasure. It was fine. Predictable as all hell, the usual overdose of explosions & whatnot, and a silly plot, but it was fun and the girl was hot.

At home: Goldfinger (rounding out the Thanksgiving Bond-a-thon).

"Do you expect me to talk?"
"No, mister Bond, I expect you to DIE!"

I love that line.

That would be Les Triplettes de Belleville actually
It reaped quite a few rewards on film festivals and I've heard it's pretty good (though rather unconventional, not too mainstream).

Last movie I've seen (on my computer) is Helen of Troy.
That Helen was ehm... nice

Diablo

I guess I should have expected it in a Vin Diesel movie but the ending made absolutely no sense whatsoever. I just wanted some nice simple mindless violence, is that too much to ask?

And then when I thought things couldn't get any worse my gf started watching a movie on TV staring Pamela Anderson as a post-apocolyptic contact-lens smuggling mercenary or something

Oh, yes, and Belleville, actually.

Personally, I didn't like the film too much, I was disappointed. The film is not mainstream, so much is good. A film may also be dark, sad, portray hopelessness and still be good. A film may also make you feel uncomfortable and still be good, but this special combination of all three didn't work for me. Some good ideas, but the film got nowhere. After leaving the theater I was like I've lost 2 hours, money and my good mood. I should add maybe that I had the exactly same feeling after Lost Highway, so he who likes that may like this...

It's been a while since I saw it (last Christmas, on the BBC I think), but I didn't think it felt sad, hopeless or uncomfortable at all. Didn't you think those triplets were having fun? I loved the rythm of it anyway.

Yeah, I liked it.
Nice sceneries and a nice view at the Mongolian nomads.
The closing scenes (when the camel finally starts weeping) is bewildering.

The last thing I saw in theaters was Garden State. It was chintzy.

The Triplettes of Belleville was very, very good, but not great. It had a very, very askew tone that's definitely NOT for everyone.

Shattered Glass

Wife picked this one up, and while it was interesting it left me wondering why it was made into a movie. It's about some kid reporter for some prominent magazine who made up all his stories (quite a few) and fewled the political world.
