What was the last movie you watched?

^ Funny as in actually humorous, or funny in a 'this is so pathetic' kind of way?

Scott Pilgrim VS the World

I really liked this, though I wouldn't say it's a real favorite. I can take or leave Michael Cera- he's kind of the same character in all of his movies, and they could have put any other actor in his role and it wouldn't have made a difference to me, but he did well enough here. My favorite characters were the roommate Wallace and the sister (Stacey, I think her name was). The movie was funny and I loved the old school gaming feel. Dunno how close the film was to the source material, don't really care.

It's kinda a shame more people didn't see it when it was in theaters.

 

The Other Boleyn Girl

I love historical fiction, love Philippa Gregory, so I was interested to see how they adapted this book. Eh, it was okay. I understand why they made some changes, but I didn't really like them (even though lately I've been doing my best to try to keep movie adaptations and their source materials separate). I liked seeing the world on screen and thought the actors did well with what they were given. But I couldn't help thinking "Huh? Why are they doing this that way?" or "This character didn't act at all like that in the book." Sigh.

 

How To Train Your Dragon: I absolutely loved this. I wonder what it says about me that all the movies I've really loved this year have been animated kids movies.

Misery: A Stephen King book-turned movie done right. Great acting by Kathy Bates, she was a perfect Annie. True enough to the book, from what I can remember. A good film.

Marie Antoinette: Thought Kirsten Dunst did a nice job. Liked the story okay, thought the costumes and sets were beautiful (lots of bright colors).

 

I'm sure Toy Story 3 will nab any awards. But I agree, DM was a good movie. XD

Rachel Getting Married: I think this movie was brilliantly made. It didn't feel at all like a scripted movie, it felt like some dude with a camera following around an unsuspecting family. So, great acting. But that same feel made me feel really uncomfortable watching the film. So it was interesting, but not something I'd buy or ever watch again.

Edit: So tired of crappy accidental multi-posts. Gawd.

 

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief: Eh. I liked it well enough the first time I saw it (it was better than expected). This time, it was only okay. Had trouble keeping my attention on it. The book is so much better.
