I thought Jumper was bloody awful.
Wow, you've really mastered the power of positive giving-up.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
so, skip it even if you like sci-fi eye candy?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, it does have some neat sci-fi eye candy.
But read the book instead.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
"...and it looks like a real world, not some greenscreen fantasy land."
They filmed some scenes near where moonlit and me live. If memory serves it was on the road to the Cape Nelson lighthouse, so possibly the "Enchanted Forest".

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I saw it for that basic reason, but left feeling annoyed. I think the first 20 minutes or so is serviceable, but the rest is dire.
I still have absolutely no idea why Jamie Bell's character is even in the movie. Like, at all. Or any idea about why Samuel L. Jackson's character was doing what he was doing. Like, at all. The lead character treats his love interest like shit.
I saw a movie Jamie Bell was in last year called Hallam Foe - it was my favourite film of 2007, so I know he can act.
The problems with the film are too numerous to name, but really they start with the script. Whoever wrote it has no idea how to make characters you care about. Or know about.

move out and draw fire
I give it a thumbs down unless you're really into civil war era supernatural horror.
I didn't even know this was a genre...but you know, I think I could be into it.
We watched 3:10 to Yuma over the weekend. I'm going to break with conventional wisdom and say I thought it was not very good. The only positive thing I can say is that Christian Bale looked very little like Tom Cruise for once.
