Movie recommendations <now critics corner>

I agree. Garden State was very good.

offline: I assume you've seen Rushmore as well? Bill Murray is in Wes Anderson's previous two flicks, though he isn't a very large part of Tenenbaums (though hilarious in the scenes he was in). I thought Life Aquatic was WAs weakest film to date, or at least on par with Bottle Rocket. Not to say I didn't like it, I really enjoyed the film, I just like Tenenbaums and Rushmore better.

No, I'm not a Anderson groupie No I have not
seen Rushmore. Except for a scene or two, I did
not like the Royal Tenenbaums and Rushmore
was a film I deliberately avoided. I can't say I'm a
long term fan of Murray's either.

Perhaps Aquatic appealed to me more because
I did not like Jacques Cousteau or his
films; although he had all but retired in my
childhood.

Some I've seen over the weeks:

Garden State - liked it ok, (love Zac in Scrubs)
Code 46 - IMHO HORRIBLE, Slow movie
Harold & Kumar - Loved it
Grudge - Way over Rated
The Village - AGAIN WAY over RAted
Cellular - Pretty good, nice twists
Just finished Paparzzi, - thought it was pretty good.
Talking about horrible movies...Lost in Translation, Code 46 and Punch drunk Love w/Adam Sandler

Hello,

Rented SKY CAPTAIN Friday night - Saw it in the theater and liked it and still liked it at home

I also rented MOOSEPORT with RAY RAMANO and GENE HACKMAN. FUNNY

It's a little forced but still has plenty of laughs in it. By the way MIKE HAMMER of RED GREEN fame has a minor role in it. (JOEL HARRIS I believe is his real name ). Funny stuff

Kevin


BY THE WAY - Anybody remember WHAT ABOUT BOB???? Another great BILL MURRAY movie
