+1.
I had led a group of 8 people to watch this and we all were highly disappointed and some even slept in between cos of boredom.
Rating - 2/5
Can be easily skipped.

saw Ice Age 3 - as usual the antics of all the characters are funny - the storyline is ok. I would rate it 3.5/5

saw hangover yesterday

it was hilarious. awesome movie after a long time.

i can say i am still feeling the hangover of 'The Hangover'

5/5 for me

normally_crazy · 21st July 2009, 10:03

Caught the Hangover yesterday and I was laughing all through the movie.

It's a foul mouthed, howlarious, trashy, silly movie but awesome fun.

Verdict - 4/5 - Absolute must watch.

Coincidentally, even I watched it yesterday and its as good as comedies can get.
I loved the credits part especially with the pictures from that crazy night!

Watched "MI-3" starring Tom Cruise. This edition of MI series was faster than previous editions and pulsating action sequences even if some of them were quite un-beilevable.

Great acting by Tommy and this band of IMF support group.

I want to add this series to my collection. Is there a 3 movie dvd pack available?

4.5/5

How is " National Security" starring Martin Lawrence and Steve Zahn?

I think it came a few times on television too. Seemed funny from what small clips that i managed to see on TV.

That's pretty twisty comment dude. Is it go OR no-go?

pranavt · 22nd July 2009, 18:29

I make it a point to watch all Martin Lawrence movies. And Jason Statham movies. Better than National Security is Blue Streak, also starring Martin Lawrence. Watch it!

Recently watched,
Hotel Rawanda : Story about a hotelier saving almost 1k tutsi people from the Genocide that happened during 1994. Awesome movie, a must watch.
The Longest Day : It's about D-day. Nice movie. I so much wish that they remake this movie now, with all the tech available it's gonna be a treat.
A beautiful mind : do I need to say anything about this movie?

An excellent movie. Don Cheadle has become one of my most favourite actors among the current bunch. Remember him in Crash?
