Not great but better than every other Predator movie besides the original.

Outside of a few decent fight scenes and a couple of good monologues (mostly by Mickey Rourke) not much worth seeing here.

Not sure if this counts but I watched Outpost: Restrepo on National Geographic...it's a documentary about the Second Platoon in Afghanistan's Korengal Valley...it was one of the most moving things I have ever seen. As a coach at OSU I have several players who are serving or have served over there and it made me appreciate what these young men do on such a greater scale.

Here are a few links:

I'd rather watch a good documentary or a movie based on a true story (ex. Band of Brothers) than almost any movie. I'll probably watch this again, it's a hell of a good story. I highly recommend it to any history/war buff. After watching this you'll have even more respect for what are armed forces do than ever before. If you have no respect for them, well then you can go to hell or move to France. If you have netflix instant streaming it's on there.

This was a damn good movie. It's one where you/I will have to watch more than once to get everything out of it.

Just read that one of the people in the documentary received a Medal of Honor.

Predators

Pretty blah. Adrian Brody did his best to pull off the bad ass character, kind of fell short (although not as badly as I expected). Movie itself was pretty boring for an action movie that has so much potential. I fell asleep twice. Only for a couple minutes total, but still. That's pathetic for an action movie that I actually wanted to see.

should've watched inception again/10

Late 60's Sci-Fi flick I'd never heard of before. The FX were by the Andersons (Thunderbirds, UFO etc). An interesting concept and they actually touched on some real world dangers of space (radiation) that you rarely see in Sci-Fi movies (especially in that era) but otherwise a pretty slow, plodding & otherwise forgettable film.

Fantastic job of telling Aron Ralston's story.

Law Abiding Citizen and The A-Team. I remember thinking both of these were going to suck when they came out but some friends recommended them. I was wrong. Really enjoyed both.

I liked Law Abiding Citizen up until the finale...the ending ruined it for me.

No comment on the A-Team.
