A few more movies I've recently watched and enjoyed. I wont be listing all movies I watch in this blog (as I am listing all books I read) but those that I enjoy or otherwise want to note or remember will be mentioned.
Boondock Saints: This one has been in my Watch Instantly queue on Netflix for a while, and I finally got around to watching it last weekend. Not sure why I waited so long, what a great film. This is one I highly recommend.
Children of Men: Liked this one, I'm a fan of post-apocalyptic books & movies in general. This wasn't one of the best I've ever seen, but it was interesting.
In Bruges: A surprise with this one, wasn't expecting such a great mix of humor and grief. Overall another great film. This is the kind of movie I probably would not have enjoyed if it had been on Netflix's Watch Instantly, as I need the subtitles. I know it's crazy, but strong English accents make films like this so hard for me to understand all the dialog. I really wish Watch Instantly offered closed captioning. My wife and I turn it on for every single movie we watch, no matter what language/accent it is. This includes all Hollywood movies. I love closed captioning.
Rambo: Maybe the biggest surprise. Like the recent Rocky Balboa (a film I loved) Stallone seems to have come full circle with his other signature character. This movie was violent, graphic, and crazy fun. The first & last Rocky movies, and the first & last Rambo movies should be packaged together as four cinematic masterpieces. All the middle Rocky's & Rambo's should be trashed.
